Icon79:My man O pari u don vex,pls easy,i know u are not happy with d way d guy went about d whole things but u need to put this into consideration, his age and d pressure from English FA especially his U21 coach. Amaju w still go after him coz he was very close to d family and Amaju know much than us.Honestly if he want to play for us fine and if he decide that it's England, no issue. Honestly players are very funny sometimes, did u know as experience and mature Enyeama is,he shunned d senate President who tried to come in to settle his rift with NFF but Senate President wasn't bother by d embarrassment,still went after him to change his mind. Pls don't let us rules d guy out,honestly i watched his video clips last week, d guy is a poacher, it we be good to have him in this present team. 3 Likes 1 Share |

forgiveness:They are everywhere but it's not everywhere that they have influence like Lagos of the past. Even in Lagos currently the touts are clamped down upon. Whatsup with Omo Onile? Are you aware of the law the LSHA enacted with stringent penalties against Omo Onile thing? So this things curb and reduce their influence. 1 Like |

Lucque:I'm not supporting his argument in so far as he appears to be canvassing that booing our team is part of the winning mentality of Lagos. I've pointed out that that is old method and I just added again that Lagos are getting more civilised and would probably conduct themselves better if a game is hosted there. |

Joebie: Your mind is not pure. It's clear from your statements. Don't cover up with rotation because it's not harmful nor bad idea. ![]() Abi, is there anything wrong with rotation? Oya, tell us make I hear. Besides, he subject was about the response of the crowd and not rotation. Rotation is secondary. I have told you we don't share the same norms and values hence the differences in approach. So, if mine is different, you don't need to force down yours on me. ![]() And stop seeking with suspicious mind though you are free anyways. ![]() Now, answer questions. ![]() |

Joebie: Let me make this clear to you. Calabar and Uyo hosting the Super Eagles have to do with their governments providing the finances of our games for free for economical purpose. The highest bidder takes it all. I don't think Uyo fit flex muscle with Lagos if they are really interested in hosting the Super Eagles. Sorry.. If Lagos State who is doing everything to bring back the Super Eagles to Lagos for their own economical purposes, na sin? ![]() My friend, I am speaking the mind of the current government of Lagos state in regards to hosting the Super Eagles and not solemnly my opinion or thought. ![]() That was why I mentioned Ambode. You ignorantly made conclusions that it's my mind sets whereas you where only ignorant or not current. Please, update yaself. If you are not happy with the government of Lagos state, na my problem? ![]() |

The incident happened while football fans were trying to enter the stadium during the World Cup qualifier against Zambia. The fans were allegedly beaten by soldiers at the gates of the stadium with heavy sticks. According to Punch, the stampede occurred as the crowd tried to avoid the soldiers’ sticks. The newspaper reports that bloodstains were around the gate of the stadium, while policemen and personnel of the Federal Road Safety Corps were seen standing beside some unconscious fans. Some of the fans claimed they escaped death by the whiskers. A female fan, Aniema Ekong, said, “I thank God that I’m alive. This is not the first time this kind of incident had occurred. In fact, in every major tournament, there is always a tale of woes to tell about security agents injuring or killing people.” Another fan who identified himself as Chukwudi, said his girlfriend was severely injured by the security personnel manning the gate. He said, “I don’t know why there is always trouble in this stadium.” Ambulances were seen conveying injured persons to the hospital. The state Police Public Relations Officer, Elkana Bala, however, claimed that no one died. He told the newspaper, “It is confirmed that nobody died. But some persons were injured while struggling to gain access into the stadium. The injured persons were taken to hospital for medical attention.” Photos: http://anstalk.com/nigeria-vs-zambia-five-feared-dead-scores-injured-stadium-stampede/ |

Bro, the young man shamed my country. The way he denied naija was very hurtful. And he concluded his statement by saying "I have informed the FA (English FA) that I remain available for selection". That was the dagger! I honestly don't want Nigeria to be somebody's second choice. We need the players we would wear the uniform with pride and not because their preferred country couldn't come thru for them. O pari Kog45: 8 Likes |

forgiveness: Bottles don't have to be glass. Plastic bottles filled with water and cans can still be dangerous. That is even beside the point as what I disputed was your claim that there was no such thing as throwing missiles at players at AFCON 2000 which you claimed to have attended but the finals. It's a pity there is no clip of that match around. However, on the question of bottles and "objects" not being allowed in the stadium, take a look at what happened to the Tunisians at Abuja stadium in 2009 in the video below from 2:51 - 3:03. You don't have to be in the stadium to know that those weren't pure water sachets: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pgoS-jH5cUk |

Bro, not me! As for me, 99.9% of the blame belongs to Pinnick. I even tweeted him a few times on twitter (along with that naija BBC reporter) to keep his moves on the down low....we don't wanna alert the English FA so they go ahead and cap him right away. But he ignored me because he needs his photo ops. And as for the Oluwashina Okeleji somebody (the BBC reporter), I got into a twitter shouting match with him sef. But he kept on doing his thing because he wanted to report his scoop. That being selfish! That's unpatriotic! O pari Joebie: |

TheGoodJoe: you seems to forget something else, nothing wrong with sitting deep, with a lone man, or playing offensive, with your man attacking space with pace, the most important thing in strategy, is playing to the rules spelled out, accordingly, and in so doing you have to bring ur man strength into consideration, so wether we are sitting deep or not, any strategy withou considering the strength of our player is null and void GERRIT ![]() |

forgiveness:as if this will be the first time junk news is making NL homepage. When the news ofghem debunking the story makes homepage, don't forget to bring it here. E no hard to confirm story in this age, a common visit to Twitter helps. If there indeed was a stampede that killed five people before the match, we would have known DURING the match at least. The players would have said something after the match, the people in the stadium would have tweeted about it. Tapping news from some nonsense blog to defend silly behaviour is juvenile |
