The Interim Management Company (IMC) claim to have gotten sponsorship deals for the league (as per what I read online)... Let's hope it's really true...
If this format succeeds, we might just adopt it going forward.. Although I would prefer an improvised version where we have a north and south or east and west conference.. to reduce the distance teams have to travel for games...
Dividing the league along geographic lines will inadvertently bring along tribal echoes. This is Nigeria where tribalism is the first resort when rationality goes out the window

I personally don't buy the distance excuse. Teams logistics is what is in shambles

Exactly my stance. Every season since 2017 has begun with exactly this same sponsorship deal story.

Transparency isn't as hard as they want to make it look.

Even the NTA airing stuff. Will it not be like other wretched picture quality programs they air

The new abridged format of the NPFL...

Season kicks off January 8th..
Top three teams in each group will qualify for the super 6 which would determine the overall winner.
Winner of the league get a prize money of #100m
Each team gets #10m before the league commences
Games to be televised on NTA...


Thoughts?

I like the arrangement as I believe it would reduce costs for all the teams. Also the prize money isn't bad too. The only arrangement I don't like is collaboration with NTA. NTA will abandon the games for political campaigns. Also how about good game coverage, can NTA do that?

This is exactly why state governments shouldn't be involved in the NPFL. How exactly do you justify the use of public funds to run a football club with 100M as price money. It would have made more sense if they made money from the sale of players but most of them do not.

Gov Wike just gave about 300M to the Rivers team recently as a reward from last season from the public purse, this is exclusive of their monthly salary, travel bonuses, logistical expenses etc. How exactly will the league grow if clubs have an abundance of state funds without an expectation for returns?

No. Improvising the league to have geographical slants will take us backwards. It is exactly what CAF is doing at the women's and youth level that needs to stop.

100% agreed about the tribe ish.
Baba how many states have functional airports, how many states can you travel to by rail, what is the state of our roads etc, yes logistics is in shambles but so is the transportation infrastructure.

It was reported that he made a hooge donation to the soccer academy that trained him at some point. I want to believe that was true, he may not have been able to sustain it, that's another matter. Now significance of the charity work could be deemed relative. At all at all na im no good as my people dey take talk am. But one thing is certain tou never one what the beneficiary of just one soccer boot could become in the future.

The problem is huge is a relative term and is very subjective what is huge to one person is minuscule to another.

You should tell us how much was donated.

I am looking forward to Olisa Ndah and Tosin partnership.
Two great passer of the ball and good in the air as well!

Ndah needs to move out of the mediocrity of a poor quality South African league to prove his quality first.

Otherwise he could just be on the level of 4th tier Belgium league, we don't know yet.

Against all expectations and after being in doldrums for so long after promising so much as a stupendously prolific striker for Arsenal youth .

Chuba Akpom has finally come alive it seems he is now the top goal scorer in the Championship that is a feat in itself.

He has been around the world and without much impact indeed his last two seasons in the Championship he has been anonymous.

What's changed I absolutely don't know is it a flash in the pan and next season he will resort back to his consistent MEDIOCRITY it's hard to say.

How many goals will he score before the end of the season, can't predict will his form continue just don't know.

Is he better than the larger majority of our strikers firing blanks like KC, Awoniyi, Dennis , Who can tell ❓

Am l SURPRISED yes very much so

Tell me the football academies that need assistance in Nigeria with football kits etc that you would say are the most deserving, in your opinion and why please ❓

I've met a few that are just interested in making money by hook and crook and there training programme and development to be honest quite poor.

You're quite right about the tribalism part, but I don't think a West and east conference league would promote that... our basketball league had something similar like that with Savannah conference and Atlantic conference and it was all good..
The transportation system we have in this country isn't advanced enough,hence most teams depend on road transportation to honour game.. it has proved to be challenging over the years.. I believe cutting travel distance would help somehow...

I think the game transmission would be handled by another company in HD format...NTA will have the tv right... something like that sha..
But anyhow e be, never trust NTA to deliver a smooth transmission.. something must definitely go wrong..

Thr problem is that there aren't many TV stations willing to take up the deal... In fact, most TV stations in Nigeria these days focus more on political reports than core entertainment... There was a time we used to watch premier league and champions league games on AIT,STV and Galaxy TV... Those days are long gone...

I have hammered on this point several times too.. State government should hand over the clubs to private investors... Most states in Nigeria aren't that productive self.... They run the clubs like any other agency under their control..

Great you said, huge is relative, which I totally agree with, so since huge is relative, why are you interested in knowing how much was donated.
Btw, merry christmas boss and I wish you a new year with hooge results at least beyond your OWN expectations no matter how relative that is to others.

The state can't just hand over the teams, are there investors willing to buy these teams from the states? I mean we do have a few privately run teams but sustainability is another issue, at least there's Remo Stars, MFM still around. I don't know where COD and Giwa, Ifeanyi Ubah FC, Katsina Utd are now. In the old days we had Julius Berger, Union Bank, First Bank, Iwayanwu ( I murdered the name I apologize), Abiola Babes, Leventis, NEPA etc these were in the amateur league days and the teams were run as cost centers majorly. Now after all my wailing, there's always hope and who knows, we could have some great minds craft something sustainable like Remo Stars now.

Perhaps instead of 2 groups, they could have maybe three or 4 scattered around so while those long arduous trips would still need to be made at least they would be further reduced. It could be a dumb idea, what do I know.

Normally it should be used for recurrent expenditures and other bills

Prize money is just a PART of a club's finances. Others include;
- Shirt sales
- Tickets

Happy Birthday To Victor Osimhen: Nigeria's Most Valuable player in World Football today.

Undoubtedly he is also among the most complete strikers/CFs on the planet and he isn't even in his prime yet.

More years of conquests and Greatness, Victor.

By the time Chuba Akpom went to Greece, you would have decided his career was over. Now he has fought his way out from the dungeon, you are dropping his hit single like a DJ who just got a raise.
