Attacked for daring to play an away draw.

Could have been worse if 3sc has won
Go and watch the officiating before spewing this rubbish. Even if na Liverpool or Man Utd receive that partial officiating, blood must flow. The referee canceled plenty clear goals and penalties against Kano Pillars and you expect them to remain calm. Not justifying the violence but our referees need to change. No wonder none of they're not being called to officiate international matches.

Just mention 2 cases of this happening in any of Europe's top 5 leagues over the past 100years.

Happens everywhere indeed

3SC actually won in Kano against the Pillars in August last year, coming from 0-1 at half time to defeat them 2-1.
There was no report of violence at the end of that match.

You should get more informed and follow our national league closely as a lot of interesting things are going on there.
It can only get better with more people becoming keenly interested in the happenings, not so huh
I understand your point, but a lot of things are wrong with the league. Standard is below par, no funding, not televised, imagine watching Ethiopian league on DSTV and your league is not on TV.

I cannot confidently drive my kids to a stadium to see and league game.

No Nigerian team is as organized as their south African or North African counterparts, in terms of funding and organization. it took special intervention from Gov. Orji Uzor Kalu for Nigeria to win CAF champions league over 2decades ago.

The clubs makes money from selling players to Europe but never invest these funds back into the game.

Bro, an awful lot needs to be done

It is wrong to term my opinion rubbish.
We see poor officiating week in week out in Europe and no player or official is injured.
Pure fact is that our league is terrible that is why we cant get close to CAF champions league for over 2decades now

This act of barbarism should not go unpunished.

They should be banned for 5 years by The League Management Company
Honestly 5 years is small. They should be fined heavily and their fans should be banned from entering their stadia for 10 years, deduct extra 3 points and 3 goals from them to serve lesson for others
What kind of nonsense is this now...!!! Don't we watch foreign leagues on TV

Northerners are very passionate about everything. They can go rogue at the slightest provocation. Their bloodlust no be small thing. I have lived with them and have experienced it firsthand. Maybe it's the religion and the inclement weather that made them so, who knows?

Bandits league should be played in the north. Going up north to play is a risk I can't take cos boko haram is their fan based

The best way to curb fans unrest in stadia in Nigeria is to build our those in Germany.

It is wrong of course and I'm sorry for that. The officiating was glaringly bias, and you can't compare the maturity of fans in Europe and Nigeria. We have a long way to go in terms of football sha.

Who do you expect to do the awful lot that you know needs to be done?

How will they be motivated to do it if Nigerians are not interested and following up on happenings in the league?

I will continue to be interested in other leagues that do the rights things like prioritizing players welfare and proper utilization of funds until Nigeria gets it right.

My interest or going to their stadiums and getting injured will not improve the situation.

Some clubs make up to a billion naira from the sales of a single player to Europe, no part of this funds goes back into investment and development of facilities, infrastructure and security.

Cambridge Utd a club in England for example used funds from an FA Cup replay to change all the stadium toilet facilities.

Tell me why I should jeopardize my happiness for unserious an bunch

[quote author=Onewazobia post=137108490][/quote]Comparing apples and oranges.

Did the fans physically assault the referee and players?

A celebratory pitch invasion or protest against owners is very different from what happened in Kano.

I ask to share 2 cases in any top 5 European league where fans invaded pitch to attack referee and players becasie a result didn't go their way.

I wait

What criteria determined that the goals denied were clear and the penalties not awarded were also clear? VAR or what?

You don't judge cases with your personal sentiment.

Assuming but not conceding that the goals were clear, so the solution to the denials should be the animalistic behaviour being shown?

Oga, na WA for you o.

Well, I know red card offense when I see one, I knos penalty when I see one and I know offside when I see one. Our league doesn't have VAR so that is totally out of the equation. I asked you to go amd check highlight of the match, it will save me and you unnecessary explanation.
