Lol. The judiciary arm is as useless as the “K” in knife.

A teaser clip for Arcane season 2 got released, then one bro started spamming the thread with attack on titans articles. 😂 Easy bro, easy.

Patriotic9ja:
Hmm quite unnecessary. Why deny future players of the deserved honour? If number 10 was retired after Maradona, which one Messi for wear?

No doubt Messi is exceptional, but let's not take emotional decisions. Only women act this way

They can’t retire the jersey number, especially for the jersey number in discussion. It’s against FIFA rule.

Fake news. For international tournaments, especially the World Cup, consecutive squad jersey number from 1 to 26 (or 27) must be registered. So it’s impossible to retire the number 10 jersey unless the rules change.

It’s the same way one fake news channel stated that Jersey no. 10 would be retired at Barca in honor of Messi which was against La liga rules.

They borrow money and share it amongst themselves and then ask the masses to pray for them.
Then some foolish masses will come out to defend the madness and go to bed with empty stomach.

What a country.

Our continuous progress this season will be determined on what Arteta does in January.
We need additions. Not just additions, but quality additions.

Without it, even if Partey, Timber, and Tomiyasu returns, we'll get blown apart in the ucl quarters.

As it stands, our only hope of a trophy is the FaCup.
And it's not even Guaranteed the way I'm seeing.

Not just additions, Arteta needs to be flexible with his tactics. One can easily predict his starting 11, what they will be doing and you are certain they will do the same thing till the end of the match. All you need is a disciplined team to frustrate this plan A because there is no plan B.

Also, it’s easy to predict his substitutions (what they will be doing) and prepare for them before the game.

After trying medicine 3 times. I had to settle for a science course. I'm currently done with my first degree, NYSC and doing a little job by the side.

The thing is, i want to go back to medical school. I have a burning desire to study medicine, i dream about it everyday and would be rather unfulfilled if i don't study medicine.

The questions i have are:

1. I intend to start my study in my late 20s. Hopefully 28,29,or at 30years old.

2. What are the disadvantages of studying medicine and graduating in my late 30s.?


3. How is employment at that age?


What are the difficulties i should expect?

Be brutally honest. Thanks

cc: Lagusta bcomputer101

Disadvantages:

-You spend another round of money on school fees, books and upkeep.
- You might get married late
- If you have no financial backing, you might get frustrated
- it will look as if everyone around you are getting far ahead of you while you are stagnant.

Advantages:

- You become a medical doctor after 8 to 9 years and get to fulfil your dream.
- A doctor is a doctor regardless of the age or school you graduate. There is no age discrimination in the profession. You only have to know what you are doing.

OP, the main question is, do you have the financial backing to pursue this career? Studying medicine is currently expensive. It used to be cheap at University of Ibadan and some other schools before but not anymore. I believe financial backing is your major challenge.

Another question is, are you brilliant enough to go through medical school till the end. You don’t want to end up gaining admission and then drop out half way or asked to withdraw because you could not cope academically.

If you can answer these two questions and they are positive, why don’t you pursue it. Many people in their 30s are going back to pursue medicine. The main goal is to become a doctor at the end of the day.

The truth is, whether you pursue medicine or not, you will still be in your late 30s in the next 8 to 9 years. By that time, do you want to be called a medical doctor or see yourself somewhere else? Only you can answer that.

If you are man, i dont know what to say to you.

But if you're a lady then foolishness is always common with those gender.
I was telling kobojunkie the other day that women need to be put to their place because majority of them lack this ability to think critically and be objective. I grew up to know this after relating with alot of ladies.

Hasty generalization fallacy. Like we don’t have substantial number of men that lacks the ability to think critically and objectively. How are we sure you are capable of thinking critically and objectively when your take reeks of myopic views?

The bolded tells me all I need to know about you. No need to further engage you.

Its like some of you think children are blind when domestic violence happens in the home.

These kids might be little but they see and comprehend everything

Don’t mind them. If a parent (whether dad or mum) keeps making stupid decisions or taking damaging actions to the detriment of the family and it’s obvious to everyone, do they think the kids won’t know or see it and take side?

A father keeps gambling away money that is meant for the feeding of the family. The family could barely feed due to the money he lost regularly. Then he turns to the wife for more money to gamble only to get denied leading to a fight between them with the kids being aware of it and watching.

Tell me how will the child not take side in this case.

A mother abandons her home duties to attend parties or gossip around and it’s affecting the family, especially the kids being left unattended to most of the time. The husband complains to her to do right by the family only for the wife to turn it into a fight or verbal abuse with the kids seeing all these.

Tell me how a child will not take a side.

Why should a kid keep quiet and not take a side when the parent trying to make things work for the family is the one being vilified just because the deadbeat parent had an access to the media?

In any situation in life, we all bound to take side. Even all of them saying “kid shouldn’t take side,” take side in the issues of their family regularly. The only difference is that the media is not involved.

But the “kids shouldn’t take side” mantra seem to be the sexy thing to say on the internet right now.

All I know is, there is a reality outside of social media.

zoroby:
This is not good

Not good at all. This series still has 2 strong seasons in it. Sadly, it’s not going to happen.

daveP:


Even the goal, he was far from the spot a 9 should be contesting from. I loved his counter attacking play overall sha. Esp that flip on Dunk.

Me too.

Great win today. It was clear the team wanted the win very badly right from the first minute.

Odegaard was really in the mood. Martineli tried but can be very frustrating at times. Rice was rice, I mean fantastic. Jesus tried too. I just want him to stay more in areas where he can get passes to finish.

Even the subs gave a very good account of themselves with the little minutes they had. And oga Havertz is gradually warming himself into the heart of the fans.

The problem is just the chances they keep missing. This cost us against Aston Villa. I hope the team improves on that.

daveP:


I joined the live game by 21st min. I saw 6 occasions where Jesus was nowhere in the box for a cross connect so that delayed the decision of Nelli, saka, zinch, white and Odegaard (twice)


Smh.

He doesn’t make runs or stay in positions that would make him get good passes for him to finish. I don’t know how he wants to score goals when he is not found anywhere to get passes at the final third.

Sha don’t go and post this on twitter. If not, the dragging you are so much craving for, you will get it x20.

Please, what are the best websites for downloading tv series like fresh prince of bel-air or family matters etc.

Check toxicwap dot com or 02tvseries. The quality may be poor though. Or check nollyverse dot com. It has better quality

mostob:
Arteta has been warned about his future behavior following his comments after the Newcastle game . Referee Stuart Attwell gave a written glowing reference on Mikel and his overall professionalism. Attwell has also stated that given reflection and hindsight he would have given a foul and/offside if he was sent to the monitor on the day . He also stated that at match speed he did not believe it was a foul.

Mikel has one more charge of bringing the game into dispute to be decided .

#arsenalfanaticsnews

English referees and their uselessness and stupid ego. They have only one job to do, yet they fail woefully at and expect everyone to keep quiet about it. Who knows what controversy they have for us again this weekend.

eph12:

He has a lot of potential and I hope the team helps him to fulfill his potential

Has a lot of potential for the past 7 years since he made his debut.

Even at that, Rashford has had little or no improvement in his gameplay since his debut. If you think I’m joking, take a day to watch Man united games of about 3 years to see for yourself. He plays badly then covers it with a goal and all is forgiven

The likes of Saka, Foden, Rice, Bellingham who started after him are already leaving him behind. Someone that was once compared to Mbappe o.

This “he has potentials” is one of the main reasons Man United keeps clinging to him for this long without getting a real competitor that can make him sit on the bench once in a while.

Next season will come, it’s still going to be the same story. And before you know it, he is 30.

E be like say Nigeria don cook oo...

If Mami Wata is recognised, that's a huge fvvking W to Nollywood. Then we'd have to examine the roots of the director. Nollywood bred or from the abroad trying to tell African stories to a broader audience.

CJ Fiery Obasi is Nigeria bred. Born and raised in Nigeria. He made a horror film titled ojuju in the past that had rave reviews internationally. He doesn’t see himself as a nollywood filmmaker since he doesn’t appeal to the general nollywood audience.

There are other guys like him in his Surreal16 collectives group making artsy Nigerian films exploring the juju folklore and other core African stories.

If this film can make it to the Oscars, I’ll be very happy because some nollywood filmmakers mocked these guys when they started out stating that they were wasting their time making this kind of films.

Leyqute:


Rashford is weak AF. If he wanted to be captain he'd already be.

No one wanted the captain armband when Ole came, including him. That's why it was given to Magwaya. He stood up when everyone else said no.

United's hierarchy clinging onto Rashford tells you how rotten things are at the club.

By now, Rashford ought to be playing at Westham and Martial at one of the French clubs if Man United was a serious club.

FAKE NEWS. Messi never followed Garnacho on Instagram. Also, Garnacho’s brother has come out to debunk this fake news. Ferdinand (the liar) who peddled the lie as come out to claim it was sarcasm on X app.

From Messi is cheating on his wife to Messi is a racist to this. Abeg, make una rest. All this blackmail won’t take anything way from him.

oyaskii:
At the italicized... You've most likely described like 100 good shows who have had similar traits or even did it better than AOT. That's why most people on here are bursting your balls daily about your daily whinge about it and quite clearly it is becoming so cringe.

Most people would most likely be turned off from it thinking you are unnecessarily hyping it .

In all honesty, the show is over now, it's time to give it a rest and move on, or take your whining to a place where the discourse would be more appreciated.

Exactly. People here hardly engage his posts relating to the show except when there are complaints of his excessive posting about it.

I’m sure many regulars of this thread don’t click on the links or read his epistles or check out the pictures of AOT he post here.

It’s obvious this thread doesn’t have enough target audience for this show to warrant this daily harassment. And if at all there are any fans here, they are not interested in discussing it here or have moved on from the show. The anime thread has larger audience for this, but no baba wants to show us he has data and can do anything he likes.

Let’s just see the situation as a case of a kid who just got a new toy and wouldn’t let the whole house rest from playing with it.

Nwakali was really good during that tournament. I can see some of his amazing passes from the video.

Lazarus (the right back) is another player that stood out in that video, especially for his amazing crosses which Osimhen converted. I read from the comments that he now plays for Lobi stars. I really wished he got the chance to make it to Europe.

This is just the beginning. The next POPE will be full liberal. Sin will no longer be considered as sin.

oyaskii:
lol "Past Lives" "Best Picture" shout might be a long stretch, cuz I'm not sure those Oscar goons will allow indie gems from one studio win back to back Best Picture. But it is definitely up for Best actress, best director and best original screenplay, these are tenable for it. If A24 are feeling lucky, they can "sell" it as a foreign language film and they will have a shot at that.

I don't want to jump the gun here, but I'm like 60% confident that Best Picture is between Barbie and Oppenheimer, not necessarily for the film itself, but the build up and them releasing the same day might be the biggest rizz, Hollywood has seen in years. Barbenheimer was such a pop culture phenomenal, their are chatters in some quarters that it surpassed, "the BB finale" and "The Red Lady resurrecting Jon Snow" moment in recent pop culture history...it was that big! Just look at the wiki page! Yeah, no movie is touching those 2 for best picture. KOTFM would have tried, the marketing of that get as e be.

But "Past lives" is/was one of my fave films from this year, i am hoping i can do a top 10 list this year, it would be right up there.. special special film 💚🌟

I feel past lives might get nominated for best picture. I still see posts about it on twitter, Facebook and TikTok tipping it for an academy award.

The major backlash it’s getting now is that it’s almost a copy of an Indian film “96” made as far back as 2018. Past lives writer tweaked the “96” story a little bit to have their own version.

Something you should have collected and joke about tearing it apart with beans later in the day.

Why should South Africa play tomorrow?' - Peseiro slams Fifa over 2026 World Cup qualifiers scheduling

Published: November 17, 2023

Manager Jose Peseiro has criticized football's governing body, Fifa over the 2026 World Cup qualifiers scheduling, which would see the Super Eagles complete their November internationals a day after South Africa's opening game in Group C against Benin.

On paper, Bafana Bafana are Nigeria's biggest rivals of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers and Peseiro is of the opinion that the South Africans have been handed an advantage by Fifa's imbalanced fixtures list.

The Super Eagles had just one proper training session before taking to the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium turf to face Lesotho, bearing in mind that Tuesday's session was more or less a recovery workout as seventeen of the players named in the matchday squad arrived in Uyo on that day.

Peseiro acknowledged that these problems with logistics negatively impacted the performance of the Super Eagles players during their embarrassing 1-1 draw against Lesotho on Thursday.

Speaking at the post-match press conference, the Portuguese football tactician said: "We didn't prepare well, even the players didn't rest well because some players came on Monday, others on Tuesday.

"We could not train with intensity in that moment.Yesterday we trained but not with intensity because we must play today. For that I ask why the match was scheduled for Thursday.

"Next three days my team is going to play Zimbabwe. Why should South Africa play tomorrow, we played today. Why? I don't know.

"Our team is the best in the group, we drew but I think we will win the next match but our players must make sacrifices.

"They fought today. The ball didn't go in, bad luck for us. We are going to give a response against Zimbabwe even if we don't rest well."

West Brom central defender Semi Ajayi prevented Nigeria from suffering a devastating home defeat when he rose highest to head in the equalizer midway through the second half.

All these one na shalaye.

Algeria, Egypt, Spain, Portugal, Austria, Japan, South Korea, Australia, Norway all played against weaker teams on Thursday and won. Belgium played a friendly on WEDNESDAY and won.

It’s not that we played Ghana or South Africa in an away match o. We played LESOTHO here in Nigeria and we couldn’t win. Even if they train for 10 days, they will still do their rubbish.

abduleez1:


Yep. As well as X-men: Days of Future Past and Kick Ass.

Days of the future past was directed Bryan Singer. Matthew was not a fan of returning for sequels (except for Kinsmen) so he opted out of directing days of future past and choose to direct Kinsmen: secret service instead.

The studio brought in Bryan Singer to replace him since he directed the first trilogy.

Rick and Morty spoiler alert.

The show has finally laid to rest the storyline involving prime Rick. Does it feel fulfilling? Well, every fans will have to personally answer that. At least, the cry to serialize that storyline will die down unless they choose to revive it.

Abusule007:
Every country now believes they can win us with Uzoho in post for the eagles.

Uzoho is a confidence booster for our opponents.

All they have to do is to consistently play shots and make sure about 2 to 3 are on target. At least one of the shots will enter. It’s a very common knowledge for any team that knows Uzoho would be at the post.

Spy360:

That's why I said Raya is winning the battle only in Ramsdale's head. If Ramsdale focuses on the competition he can drop Raya to bench.

Let’s not deceive ourselves, Arteta is not setting up any competition. Arteta has been in this club for three years and it’s enough to know his moves. He has made his first choice decision and it’s Raya.

Unless, Raya messes up really bad, he will not change him.

armadeo:


Is this for freaking real.


Ashur got beheaded by namir or whatever her name was na. Where is the house coming from?

Yes, it’s real. According to news, it’s going to based on “what if” scenario in which Ashur did not die at the battle on mount Vesuvius.

abduleez1:


Just read about the details of the show from Deadline. I'm not so impressed with I saw. Why go back to Ashur?
They could have gone any other way and be more interesting like the Triumvirate you just said.

I'll still watch either ways but I don't know how well I'll enjoy it since one would be comparing to the old show cos this is a complete about turn "What If" events.

I want to believe that budget issue is the main reason they choose to ignore the triumvirate storyline.

Because earlier this year, Starz contacted Steven DeKnight for a Spartacus sequel and the proposed logline was “In the aftermath of the defeat of Spartacus and his rebel army in the series finale, the new drama will depict a new tale of treachery, deceit, and blood unfolding beneath the foreboding shadow of Rome.”

I’m sure he pitched the triumvirate story (among other premises) to them but turned down. I read recently that Rome (a similar series telling the story of the Roman Empire) cost a lot of money per episode to make. Maybe the house of Ashur is the cheapest to make.

I just want to believe DeKnight knows what he is doing. The picture attached is a tweet he made about the series. I guess it’s going to be more of Ashur fantasising about his own rise.

I could remember a scene in Spartacus: vengeance where Ashur was telling the Egyptian guy that he was going to build his own house; the house of Ashur. Maybe the series will start from there.
