^^^ Tkb, all discussion on helmets fit the bill perfectly.

Unless you're saying every post so far has been about people's experiences wearing the damn thing?

but urs isnt an experience na
u only want to start ur campaign for the use of helmet. innit
im beginning to think ure one of the assigned importers of Helmet to Lagos
just kidding.

Rubbish  

PDP

same thing i heared in ma car radio this morning. PDP=UTD
na wa

Never used one. . .

[b]But as I said in early threads, if you're worried about the hygiene implications (valid) from sharing a real crash helmet, then buy your own, if you wish to use taxi bikes.

As for the superstition, that your head will "end up in a pot", absolute rubbish.
Any reason not to comply with the law, Nigerians will take i[/b]t.

this is not what we are discussing here bro.

share ur experience or leave others to do so.
simple

Since the introduction of the Helmet since the beginning of this year
it has been welcome with mixed reactions. This phenomenon is a standard requirement to ride a motor bike in developed countries.
But as e be say e enter Naija, we carry our own social wahala follow.

Some cite traditional taboo on sharing the same head gear with another person as reason not to wear one. Even in the old, before corruption defined Naija, popsy been tell say if you buy okadasay the seller must include TWO helmet with am. But una go tell me how many Okada dey even come with brake light!!

So people, lets share your Okada helmet experience!!!

My own be say i don use one confy helmet finish come forget to give am back to the okada man
Na so i carry am dey enter bank for Festac if no be for security wey alert me, people don already dey shoot me eye dey laugh!!

So people lets share your experience; from people wey dem bad luck vamoose with the Helmet to those wey craw enter them head
as them wear helmet finish!! Just share it anyhow!!

heheheheehehe
u go kill me with laffter. that means na correct helmet be dat

UTD against Arsenal at the emirates (2-2)
lets start with that

If that is true there is a simple explanation - we pass more than any other team in the 18 yard box, thus giving more opportunities for penalties. Go watch our game of yesterday again - 6 or 7 touches INSIDE the box before Cesc's goal.

Utd's pens seem to come when things are not looking so good for them - ditto Liverpool's.

For Utd it has gotten so bad that there is now something called a Classic Old Trafford Penalty with articles like this one chronicling the dubious ones you've received.

Anyways, enough penalty talk.

u see, they have a ready made excuse for anything while we dont have the rights to defend our own positions

What about the spurious hand ball against Gallas in the same game?

dont go there, Gallas is a well know goal keepern games. u want me to remind you how hes kept the ball from goin into the net with his hands?

You guyz shd not believe any fantasy story. "paying well" is quite subjective. Compared to other ministries CBN is just slightly better but compared to banks and pples belief, the pay is laughable. I know from first hand experience . if its money ur looking for please look elsewhere

ure correct! i know a gurl that left cbn cos of the pay for one of the banks
CBN is a place to retire not where a hu-su-la like me will go and start life
u go suffer ehn .
u can only enjoy the cool work hours and the less stress associated with the work environment. but kudi/owo/ego? na lie

Its gonna be dicey, the flanks and the midfield is where the fireworks will be.

Do we play to neutralize their game or Go gong Ho. i liked the setting with the fantastic four, with carrick and Anderson sitting deep, of cause Fergie wont start that way but at some point would like to see this formation.

Anyways, its gonna be one hell of a game, but i see Fergie nicking it over two games.

if we go Gong ho without Scholes and O'shea then we'll win convincingly
we dont need flat footed players and if we bury chances as we create them, then the game will be done and dusted in 60 mins!

i need Tevez, Rooney, Park, CR7 and Berba at the same time
i dunno how they will do it but we need all the best players

For every Gibbs or Terry incident, there are about 6 cases of Vida elbowing and pulling shirts without punishment. Thank goodness for the ref during the Utd - Liverpool clash for having the balls to punish him

and what about the hand goal by Adebayor?
abeg, for like 2-3 seasons b4 the last, Arsenal had more penalties than the whole top 3 together
check your facts and get back to me.

when was the last time he did well against an arsenal left back or any arsenal defender?

ol'boi stop chatting dust
when CR7 ran rings around Cashley cow, what club was he playing for?
dundee UTD?

na wa o

Of course they are big - they love to lose by BIG margins in Europe and in the league. Want to beat someone 4-0 or 5-1? Call Bayern!!

when you want to concede 4 goals in 30 mins, call Bayern

The same club we played for 180 mins that couldnt score a goal.
a synonym for bayern is hopeless

Why would they Explain the other four goals, didn't you see HW kick the ball into TH goal himself, that has made it a no go area.

Leave these frustrated twats alone, they will only see what they want to see.

Its really frustrating when they need to see UNITED stumble b4 you can make sense of their season.
UNITED is flying high and these jealous lousy haterz wont let us be.

Buncha Twerps!!!!!!

ose jare padi mi
they wont see the 4 goals

abeg, lets talk about Wednesday!
when we win the league, they shld carry placards

Its sad when refs conspire to spoil a good game.
According to Harry, that decision demoralized his players.
When will the FA and refs stop assisting certain clubs?

show us where Webb said so.
and to think u were once a pen pusher, u shld be flogged!!!

if we get penalties, its always undeserved.
Gibbs or whatever should have been sent off againt Wigan when he pulled someone as the last man, nobody said the REF was biased
I can remember when Terry dived to save a goal bound ball in the 18 and the REF turned a blind eye
Pool have been a great beneficiary of penalties this season anytime they play the top teams. not only will they get penalties, they also get players from the opposing teams sent off. Nobody will shout cos its Pool, if it were UTD, its another thing entirely
Brad Friedel was sent off against Pool only for the decision to be rescind cos they wil face UTD the next week.
Ronaldo scored a goal against Derby only for the REF to flag offside and even recently, Welbeck was brought down in the box and nothing was done by the REF. so how is this different from other cases?

So wetin be the purpose of this thread?

haba, its not rocket science
the true blues need a thread on NL.
the dry gin boiz are the fakesters

who wan die today?

that idiotic slowpoke is NOT an Arsenal player

take ur time oh

nobody go die o

Debosky
go and siddon joh!
cos ur players no dey!

Notice now we hear less about 'Utd this and that' because semis are coming up and Rafa's rants are providing a useful distraction. Once we eliminate Utd from the CL, they will go back to creaming themselves.

hehehe
u wish. Obasanjo has a better chance of winning the presidency in America than for Arsenal to beat us in europe
u go see pepper on wednesday

Im sure Everton will spell Bayern. The poor coach should look elsewhere.
Byern is cursed! no coach can take them out of the doldrums
rubbish club

Apart from Glen Johnson and Giggs, that list is OK.

Glen was not even as good as Eboue, so why was someone like Sagna or Baines not considered

Giggs being in that team is a big joke - he shouldn't even be on the subs bench!! When players like Lampard and Alonso have performed excellently in midfield? This is nothing but a collection of nitwits out-voting the intelligent footie players.

The idiotic swooning over Utd this season (made worse by the moronic press fawning) has led to this. It confirms what I've feared for a while - a good percentage of footballers in England are very daft with no brains of their own.
Who cares anyways?

yes na! nitwits voted shey
im sure Alonso (one of the nitwits ) voted for Giggs
ol' boi u cant fault democracy.
Geddit, the footballers should know better than you. Ure a petroleum expert not a footballer so leave story

United's display in the 2nd half was breath-taking.
Berbatov was class throughout the 2nd half. . . . .His deft touches, turns, flicks and his good use of the ball is peerless in Europe.
Tevez upped the ante and Rooney on the left was just mesmerizing.

We need to start playing the fantastic four

MINT!!!!!!!!!!!

as for the award. Ive told you guys Giggs has been excellent so far this season except river blindness is worrying everybody
i strongly would have voted for Vida but the footballers in England should know better.

y'all can vote on Nairaland  for Drogba or Vida if you want but for those playing the round leather game in England, they prefer Giggs so shushhh!!!!!!!!!!!

Who are those saying the REF made us score 5 in 45 mins?
this lateefu or nathief guy should be locked up.
wtf! beautiful soccer

bring on the arses!

Brash
how is the FA involved in this?

Schalke is murdering Bayern right now. Make una put Dayo on suicide watch.

im praying here for the time to tick away.
less than 10 mins more

and to think he actaully wanted that team to play UTD, chei! na massacre the thing for be

Wolfsburg eliminated Portsmouth

Hamburg eliminated Man city

hamburg defeated Aston Villa

halleluyah!!!

please send them to UCL next season

It beggars belief especially when the king of doofus does not even know the number of teams in the Bundesliga.

hehehe
is that the only thing? dude doesnt know the countries in GB

see the king of doofus defining intelligence

TKB can you say something intelligent for once? You are going down the road of Switch47, Toba and Folahann

lemme use saurons line, in the posse of the witless, you are a crown prince!!

u shld read your 500-550 epistle in ur quiet time, u'll probably understand how moronic the thing reads.
uve always been in the circus of Toba and co cos ure perpetually a classic hoeey sprayer.

TKB cant come up with anything sensible, You stand a better chance of getting water from a rock.
If the EPL is the best they should be dominating both CL and UEFA cup like

Spain did in 2006(Barcelona and Sevilla), Germany did in 1997(Dortmund and Schalke) and Italy did for most of the 1990's

how retarded!!
if Spain did in 2006, then we all were unanimous in saying the la liga was the best innit?
if Bundesliga did it b4 , im sure there were no dissneting voices as to their supremacy.  .   .
if dominating the ucl for 4 seasons now isnt a measure of supremacy, then tell us the best league.( u can use any parameter).

if ure not a classic doofus, u wont be here telling us the heroics of Bundesliga as far back as 1997 (12 years after)
buy urself brains cos its obvious u cant reason properly.

For the reasons I have outlined, it's virtually impossible to say what is the best league. What I know for certain is that all the talk that the EPL is the best on the basis of UCL performances by the same top 4 is ridiculous.

The UCL is one competition ,why stop there? What about the international tournaments, why wasn't the Final of the Euro '08 dominated by EPL players? Why wasn't the World Cup in '06 dominated by EPL players? Why isn't the EUFA Cup dominated by the EPL? Surely, the EPL should be able to replicate the performance in the UCL in another European competition.

i hear your lines
but i dont need to study physics to know the Bundesliga and the Serie A cant measure up to the epl. ol' boi, its only a matter of lil time and i bet it, the epl will start dominating the competitions u mentioned. the trend is there for all to see
the who is who is moving to the epl to play

How did you arrive at your 70%, 80% and 90%.??

lol! it beats me.
how stupid

@tkb417

If the EPL is without doubt the best league, it should be able to replicate UCL performances in the UEFA cup, no be so?

My point is that no matter how you look at it, the top 4's performance doesn't tell us much if it's the same top 4 season after season and if the top 4's gulf with the rest of the league is quite large.

ol' boi, wetin u dey talk na
oya, lets start like this
tell me the best league in europe with ur reasons and ill be so quick to pick holes just like u did mine.
its now ur turn to tell which is the best

Lets do a little bit of statistics

I would only consider the last 6 seasons from 2004 till date (This is to deliberately favour the EPL) since this was their time of dominance. Years like 2001, 2002 where Bundesliga sides won and played finals were deliberately exluded.
This is only for UCL performance not UEFA cup where the EPL is obviously weak.

Any CL winner in the last 6 season gets 90%.
Any team who plays the CL finals get 80%.
Any team who plays the knockout stages 70%
Any team who played group stages gets 50%
and teams that dont make it into Europe(CL) at all get 10%

In a class of 20, (EPL)

Man Utd 90%
Liverpool 90%
Arsenal 80%
Chelsea 80%

The rest 16 make 10%.

Total  500

Bundesliga Bayern, Bremen, Sttutgart, Leverkusen and Schalke made quarter finals 70% =350
Hamburg made group stage 50%
The remaining 14 ten percent = 140

Total 550

I am sure conspiracy theorist would claim 4play is Dayokanu?
Thats why I have always said it that 4play is the most intelligent EPL follower on NL.

See analysis!!

dud analysis!!!

its very simple, ask urself why the Bundesliga has just 3 slots and the epl and the rest have got 4
ask urself what matters, putting up appearance in the ucl or winning the trophies
stop using beer parlour generated analysis

save urself the stress by counting the trophies won by the 2 leagues
simple things are very difficult to understand hence ur 500-550 bollocks

ure not intelligent at all!!

we can understand why u say 4play is very intelligent, he uncovered ur goal.com theatrics
ol'boi, stop tampering with ur brain cells, count ur fingers if u cant do simple analysis

How do you actually measure the comparative strengths of 20 clubs leagues?

The problem with measuring the EPL's strength by virtue of the  performance of their representatives in the UCL is that, unlike many other leagues, the EPL puts out virtually the same 4 teams every season. In effect, all we are measuring is the strength of the EPL's ''permanent'' top 4 against the ''relative'' top 3 the Bundesliga puts out.

In reality, it doesn't tell us enough of the comparative aggregate strengths of the 2 leagues, i.e; is the average EPL side better than the average Bundesliga side?

In addition, the points gap between the top 4 sides in England, the so called mini-league, and the rest of the league is larger than the points gap between the Bundesliga's top 3 or 4 and the rest of the league. In effect, rather than the EPL's top 4 becoming a reflection of the strength of the overall league, they become outliers - like Celtic/Rangers(Scotland) and Porto/S.Lisbon(Portugal) - that have little correlation with the rest of the league.

For the above reasons, the UEFA Cup becomes relevant because it enables us to assess comparative strengths sans outliers.

4play nice to hear ur tots
but ill say ure not correct on this

ok, let me ask you one question
as for you, which of the leagues will you say is the best as today? u can use any parameter to arrive at ur conclusions
UTD is the current UCL champion, and also the current world champions
Zenith is the current uefa cup holder and also the current super cup holder
in the uefa cup finals last season, we had Rangers (british), a german club, a russian and i think an italian/spanish club (not sure)
in the UCL, we had 3 english clubs and a spanish ( no Italian and no German)
i can safely conclude judging from last seasons performance alone that the epl is the best!

if ur arguements is to measure how the remaining 16 clubs perform in europe as against the best 4 in the epl, then we cant really measure hw good a league is. UEFA has helped by designing a competition where all clubs in a league will aspire to play by either coming tops or being amongst the top 4/3 as the case may be.
so if the bundesligas/la liga/ seria a's best are not good enough to match the best from the epl, then tell another credible way of measuring how good a league is.

The best of serie A couldnt play the best of epl
the best of bundesliga isnt even in the semis
the best of la liga is against 3 clubs from the epl and i wonder how this is hard to figure

this has been happening for about 4-5 seasons now and you guys think its not enuff to adjudge the epl to be the best
so which is the best league?

If a team comes every year they would build a pedigree and perform better

how laughable

Krayola
ur knowledge of statistic is baffling. if 4 out of 18 comes every year and you think its not representative enuff, then i laff in spanish.
u people shld invest in some further education cos u people say rubbish too much

akinalabi
Dayo is not intelligent and it beats me he comes online to show his folly everytime.

Adenuga and co are less thn 0.1% and hes comparing that to 4 out of 18
its a shame.

thank u guys
good one!

i only deal with mallams that i know. I call dem, they come to ma office and i change ma money.
they cant fck up cos i know their offices (like 4) in lagos.

u guys shld stop patronising all those standalone bastards!
