Irony of life
Anything and everything is possible in this life

That's a bad one and this may cause people to taunt the quality of the league. But this doesn't only happen in Nigeria league.

In England for example, Leicester won the league in 2015, few years later were relegated to Championship, just this concluded season, they were again relegated to league 1.

Chelsea on the other hand won the FIFA club world cup last season, but this season they finished 10th position in the league...

So shits do happen everywhere in football!
Comparing apples and oranges .

Leicester were relegated from EPL almost a decade after winning the league, so the league win isn't relevant to their relegation story. While Remo were relegated immediately after winning. That's unprecedented

That means they are fake champions how can a whole league champion be relegated within just one season of becoming champions? This can never happen in the english premier league.

Remo own happened within just one season while leicester was after almost a decade something is just not right with the npfl.

Your ignorance is very loud.
Fyi, the owner of Bet9ja also owns Remo stars FC , Beyond limits FC, Valujets Airlines, another football club in the Portuguese league and so many other viable and profitable businesses.

No, it's not common among the NPFL heavyweights from the south east.
It's mostly common in North and SW clubs.
It happened to Kano pillars at a time.

How is this the reason why they were relegated?

Does anyone have a better analysis of why they could not hold their place in the premier league after winning the title last year?

One of the best run clubs and privately owned have been relegated from the Nigerian Premier league.
Remo stars failed to win at the Samuel ogbemudia stadium against Bendel insurance after conceding a late goal at the 94th minute scored by old war horse Chinedu Akuneto.
happy to see someone talking about Nigerian League

Because they don't play true football. Nigerian league clubs fix matches from top to bottom. So you can't tell which club is better.

I wish many Nigerians could be like you and support NPFL.
in South Africa it is rare to hear someone talking about European soccer, lets learn from them.

if we support NPFL, one day NPFL will be better than EPL.
have the faith like south africans who believe PSL is better than EPL.

Absolutely spot on,we as Nigerians must contribute our own quota in one way or the other to the development of the Nigerian league, I love ❤️ the way nairaland is currently promoting the league, it's a way to go .

There is no where in the world that matches are not fixed and I don't think there is any evidence to back up your claims.

Arsenal too should prepare for the same thing next season

Emphasis on few years later... not the next season, that shows u how the team was managed and sponsored. They use them for betting and the last year its shows they did nt really play the game but bought some matches

Like Chelsea like Remo Stars

It might be the turn of Arsenal next season!

Most of the Nigerian clubs are fund of doing it as there are usually player exodus every season.

Until this is address, it will always affect team cohesion n reduce chances of going far in the CAF champions league

Financial Base is a big problem in the NPFL,I think there should be like a form of recapitalization as it is done in the banking sector should be introduced to the Nigerian league.
You must have a capital Base of like 10 billion naira for you to be in the NPFL
This will attract investors to the league and sponsorship too.
Also the league should be put on TV and televised to broader audience across the world.
So much marketing can be done to improve the league but the people in charge are not thinking in that direction.

Tottenham won Europa last season but almost got relegated this season. Remo lost a couple of good players after thier win last season. The team need to rebuild and unfortunately they will rebuild from scratch

I am really interested in how overnight, a winner suddenly gets relegated.Could it be they sold all the best players out?
Re: Last Season Nigeria Football League Champions, Remo Stars Are Relegated by wunmi590(m): 2:54pm On May 25
