Sorry Mini was retained by BMW Common this is just pure future analysis, the Mini stopped BMW delving into a mass production of building small front wheel drive cars, also they have a product that could compete directly against the Golf, the civic, the Corolla etc. The mini cooper was rebranded and released. |

princefunmi: Actually I was meant to write £1 not £1m Towards the late 80s and early 90s the growth of the small car industry was staggering most especially the front wheel drive cars and this was from Volkswagen, Renault, Peugeot and the Japanese car firms; also BMW was keen on breaking into the all wheels or 4 wheel drive industry. The cost of developing the front drive was a concern. On the other side Honda owned 20 stake in over Group PLC they were still negotiating with BAe the owners of Rover Group PLC to increase their stake further. In 1994 Rover was sold to BMW for £800m, the last British owned car industry has been sold off. What was regarded as the family silver has been sold off. Honda felt betrayed by the Brits, But BMW had acquired a fast route into 2 car industries. Honda was encouraged to continue to provide the engines, chassis and gear box for Rover, but eventually Honda pulled out leaving BMW turning to other car industries to provide these parts for Rover Yes as you mentioned they acquired the technology which they were eager to develop but had some concerns about the cost of developing them. The small car they wanted came inform of the Mini Cooper which was retained when Rover Group PLC was sold to Phoenix The technology from Land Rover helped BMW in developing the X5 Remember that the Land Rover Freelander was built based on Honda's own 4 wheel drive I think its the CRV in Swindon (Honda's plant) BMW provided the Diesel engines for Rover 75 models but in the end they all flopped. Rover was loosing money by the day, but BMW didnt want to break the original agreement they signed when they acquired the Car firm, by moving it back to Germany where they thought it will be cheaper to run. |

princefunmi: They are not killing NOTHING!!!!! Kia is there but in the small car, Hatch back, 5 doors, Sedan, estate, Luxury or coupe... Kia is nowhere near dominating any of those market. They might make one model that wins best small car of the year but it doesnt mean they are dominating that market. Do you know how long the "Corolla" dominated the small car industry before the Volkswagen Golf moved in? |

They are both hideous the Yoruba movies sells more because they are in mass production, the cost of making them is very low, the English speaking wing of Nollywood have ironed out some "head-scratching" moments you still find in Yoruba movies like someone dying from a car crash that rolled at 2mph into a grass or a gun shot that that sounds like a tray and spoon connecting together |

| TV/Movies / Re: Half Of A Yellow Sun Sets New Box Office Record by omar22(m): 7:15am On Aug 09, 2014 |
VillageBoi: All am saying is that you expect the movie to smash all the box record because it had an unfair advantage over the other movies, Its like comparing the movie Jesus of Nazareth to Mel Gibson's Passion of Christ! One could only go straight to DVD then to the TV but the other smashed records at the cinemas, why? Because of its investment, marketing, directing, producing, casts, cinematigraphy, costume, sound editing, etc and this also gave it an advantage over movies that were handled by amateurs |
| TV/Movies / Re: Half Of A Yellow Sun Sets New Box Office Record by omar22(m): 4:00pm On Aug 08, 2014 |
Common OP Half of a Yellow Sun vs trailblazers like Last Flight to Abuja ,Phone Swap, Maami and The Return of Jennifer (N10Million). Unfair comparisson!!! Half of a Yellow Sun budget is bigger or more than those 4 movies all together, had Hollywood actors/actresses.... So what do you expect. Compare Half of a Yellow Sun with a movies of similar budget, like Tsotsi, Hotel Rwanda, The Last King of Scotland etc 1 Like |
| Sports / Re: Stephen Keshi's Confession On USA 94 by omar22(m): 3:01pm On Aug 07, 2014 |
thegoodjoehunt3: I just gave you a scenario with Coach Amokachi. For instance, the introduction of Mikel in 2006, led to the end of the Martins drought with two goals in one game in the Nations cup. Okocha wasnt part of the mafia group who starved Yekini, it was the senior players led by Keshi, Ammunike, Iroha, Okon, Finidi, Amokachi etc Okocha and Oliseh were junior members they had no say, Okocha was in the SE team from 1993 WC qualifying that qualified for the first WC, which also got Yekini his second golden booth. How could you say we were Trophyless under Okocha when he was in the team that won the 1994 ANC and Olympics gold (ok thats age related) but Nigeria won another trophy 8 years after he retired.... Most of Martins goals were set up by Kanu and not Mikel |
| Sports / Re: Stephen Keshi's Confession On USA 94 by omar22(m): 2:52pm On Aug 07, 2014 |
thegoodjoehunt3: Ikpeba was one of the best strikers in the World going to France 98. He was the highest goal scorer in the French league. Guess what, he flopped at the World Cup. Tell me the way our strikers were flopping during Jay Jay's era was not strange. Oh please!!! Against Spain Nigeria scored 3 goals - he must be doing something right? he scored against Bulgaria and he didnt play the last game game which was a dead rubber |
| Sports / Re: Stephen Keshi's Confession On USA 94 by omar22(m): 1:59pm On Aug 07, 2014 |
thegoodjoehunt3: Yekini flopped at the World Cup in 1994 because his team mates refused to give him good services to shine. Dont make me laugh please! so a striker flopped because Okocha hugged the ball too long! is your point, so what was the role of Finidi, Babangida, Ikpeba and all the right and left wingers in the team? are they not meant to create chances for the strikers? Okocha left the international scene I guess in 2006, so tell me in the last 8 years who is to blame? Okocha!! You make it sound as if Nigeria is a one man team! |
| Sports / Re: Stephen Keshi's Confession On USA 94 by omar22(m): 12:07pm On Aug 07, 2014 |
thegoodjoehunt3: I am not talking of USA '94. I am talking. Martins, Aghali and Ogbeche. That was when Okocha was a senior player. Martin came into the SE team when Okocha was fading out, Ogbeche was his team mate at PSG but was a reserve player and during the Onigbinde era Ogbeche didnt cut the mustard at the national team, he flopped where Agahowa shined, Agali had one good season with Shalke 04 but he flopped big time at the 2002 Nations cup so you cant say Okocha starved him the ball, yes it does happened but Nigeria is not a one man team and assist comes from all over the field. 2 Likes |

Eberex: Are you serious.... I deal with facts not hot air Chelsea: 4th most fans in Europe A German consultancy company, specialised in Sports questions, has carried out a study on the most popular football clubs in Europe. The study has Chelsea as the 4th most popular club. Sport + Markt is a German company based in Cologne. Every year, they publish a study on the most popular clubs by estimating the number of their fans in Europe. I wish I could explain how this was done, the methodology must be fascinating. Unfortunately, the study itself is very expensive and only an executive summary is available for the general public. Nevertheless, that abstract makes for some very interesting reading. Most revealing is a European top 20 of clubs by number of European supporters, a ranking that can be read alongside the annual Deloitte Football Money League. In the top 20, it is not surprising that the top 2 clubs by number of fans are Barcelona and Real Madrid. Barcelona are estimated to have some 57,8 million fans, and Madrid a mere 31,3 million. As can be imagined, these are the only 2 Spanish clubs in the list, highlighting the extreme nature of the imbalance in the Spanish Liga. ManYoo come next, but only just, with 30.6 million. What is an eye-opener is that the study has Chelsea as the 4th best supported club in Europe (albeit some way behind) with 21,4 million supporters. We are guessing that not all of them went to those glorious midweek away matches to Oldham or Orient in the 1980s… England has another 2 clubs in the list: Arsenal are 6th (20.3 million) and the team with the best fans in the world, Liverpool, come in at 9th. Of course, each of their 16,4 million is worth 10 Barça fans, so they should be on top of the list. Beyond the top 20, we see that Tottenham come in at number 33, with a massive 3.3 million fans across Europe. There are 4 Italian clubs in the list: Milan are 7th (18,4 million), closely followed by Inter (8th, on 17,5 million), Juve 10th (13,1 million) and Roma 19th (6 million). Germany has just the one club, not surprisingly Bayern Munich in 5th place on 20,7 million. France`s big two are Marseille (14th, 7,8 million) and Lyon (17th, 6,6 million). What is striking is that Russia has 3 clubs in the list: Zenit St. Petersburg (11th, 12,6 million), CSKA Moscow (12th, 10,5 million) and Spartak Moscow (13th, 9 million). Then again, we have to take into account the sheer size and population of Russia. That is the reason why Turkey, also a massive country, has two entries: Galatasaray (16th 6,8 million) and Fenerbahce (6.1 million). Finally we can note Dynamo Kyiv in 20th, 5,3 million, and the huge weight of Ajax, some 7,1 million supporters in 15th.
