Now that I think of it, which league is better than Nigeria?(in terms of performance). In the champions league during the past 5 or 6 years Tunsia has sent ESS and Esperance, Ghana has sent Ashante Kotoko and Hearts of Oak(now Berekum Chelsea), Egypt has sent Al-Alhy and Zamelek, Congo has sent TP Mazembe, and South Africa's Orlando Pirates were recently knocked out of the preliminaries of the champions league by an Angolan team. However, Nigeria has sent Heartland, Kano Pillars, Enyimba, and now Sunshine Stars. We have consistently been to the group stage semi finals or finals for the past five years so we can't be that bad. Plus, Enyimba were the only team in the continent to win back to back champs. league.

AjanleKoko:

Nigerians and pay sha.

Money play a huge role here bro, even in a county like Germany where some division 2 leauge players are paid as much as $30k weekly there are still cases of match fixing compared to places where players are struggling to get the disired football boots.

mkmyers45:

With all of england,spain and italian huge player salaries match fixing still goes on

did i just said minimized?

Freiburger:

Ok, but i put it to you that if all Nigerian soccer fans start following and going crazy for NPL teams surely they will improve in finance,play quality and what not

There is no money you would pay a Nigerian today, that they wouldn't still accept a bribe for something, or run some scam on the side.
Tell me about it. I live and work here. What some people risk their very good jobs over is simply unbelievable.

THIS IS GOOD QUESTION, I HAVE BEEN WONDERING ABOUT THIS AS WELL. ON LIVESCORE.COM YOU WILL SEE LOTS OF POVERTY STRICKEN COUNTRIES LISTED AND NIGERIA IS NOT THERE, I DO NOT BELIEVE THAT NIGERIAN LEAGUE IS THAT BORING THAT IT CANNOT MAKE IT TO LIVESCORE.COM.

THIS IS A VERY GOOD POST, I WOULDN'T WANT TO SEE OR HEAR ANYONE COMING HERE TO ASK HOW CAN THIS POST REDUCE THE PRICE OF GARRI... IF YOU NEED TO ASK SUCH QUESTION KINDLY GO TO THE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY OR YOU GO TO YOUR STATE GOVERNMENT.

When last did you watch a Nigerian premier league match live on NTA?

This is a management problem and not the the fans, does the Holland 1st league(dutch Eredivisie) has more crazy and dedicated fans than the NPL?

Ω̴̩̩̩̥α bcz of ojoro now. For naija league no away win

THATS PURE CRAP/LIE 100%... NOT EVERY NIGERIAN IS CORRUPT, DONT TALK RUBBISH. I HAVE SEEN A UNIVERSITY LECTURER WHO REFUSED TO ACCEPT BRIBE FROM HIS STUDENTS, HE BLUNTLY TOLD HIS STUDENTS ALL HIS CHILDREN ARE GRADUATES AND HE DOESNT NEED BRIBE MONEY FOR ANYTHING AND THE SALARY HE RECEIVES IS MORE THAN ENOUGH FOR HIM AND HIS WIFE... I HAVE SEEN A POLICE GUY THAT REFUSED TO TAKE BRIBE FROM ONE OF OUR VILLAGE CHIEFS TO NAIL AN INNOCENT POOR GUY. I HAVE SEEN MANY HONEST NIGERIANS WITHIN AND OUTSIDE MY STATE OF ORIGIN, COMING ONLINE TO SAY 100% OF NIGERIANS ARE CORRUPT IS PURE BULSHIIIT. MAYBE YOU ARE TOO CORRUPT YOU CAN SELL YOUR MOTHER FOR MONEY, THAT DOES NOT MEAN EVERY NIGERIAN IS LIKE YOU.

How many nigerians follow the local teams in towns where they live? Can you explain the correlation between eredivisie and NPL?

9ja needs help. LET US SWAP COUNTRIES WITH ENGLAND. #suggestion#

brownlord:

Then the IFFHS are mad and they dont know what they doing, Nigeria do not even go near 10th in Africa and should even be ranked in the world in the first place, which useless 24th, hw did they got there, or league with oldest player in the world, we are Number 1 now if that what they mean

MR TALKATIVE, IT IS FOOLS LIKE YOU THAT DONT WANT TO HEAR ANY GOOD NEWS FROM NIGERIA.
TELL ME HOW MANY AFRICAN COUNTRIES HAVE YOU BEEN TO AND HOW MANY OF THEIR LEAGUES HAVE YOU SEEN? CAN U TELL US, IN YOUR OWN SHALLOW THINKING, WHICH ARE THE BIGGEST AND BEST LEAGUES IN AFRICA? IN TERMS OF SALARY, APART FROM THE FEW NORTH AFRICAN COUNTRIES AND SOUTH AFRICA, MENTION ANY OTHER AFRICAN COUNTRY THAT PAYS AS MUCH AS THE NFL? I KNOW THE PAY IN NIGERIA IS POOR, BUT I HAVE SEEN POOORER LEAGUES ACROSS AFRICA, YOU GUYS MUST STOP PUTTING NIGERIAN DOWN. NIGERIA IS THE ONLY HOPE OF THE BLACK RACE, THERE IS NO BLACK COUNTRY THAT CAN COMPETE WITH NIGERIA IN ANYTHING. I KNOW WE CAN DO BETTER THAN THIS, BUT IN REALITY WE ARE NOT AS BAD AS SOME FOLKS RANT ON THE INTERNET...

Nigerians need to stop kissing Chelsea's, Arsenal's, and Man u's @ss and come to a Nigerian match every once in a while. South African football sucks, yet the people come to their matches.....and don't even give me the "Nigerian league doesn't have money" crap. If Nigerians can come and pay for tickets, sit down and enjoy the match...that would help the league a lot.

It might not be uniformed all over Nigeria, but my point is, the NPL has got more dedicated fans than the dutch league.

I've got no special link for this, but from my own estimate only about 2.5million fan are registered to the about 20,000 football clubs in holland, i don't think a country like Nigeria has only 2.5million football fans whether rigistered or not.

sambos994:
