Guard against further blunders, Onigbinde cautions NFF By Samuel Ifetoye ![]() Chief Adegboye Onigbinde Former Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) and Confederation of Africa Football (CAF) instructor, Coach Adegboye Onigbinde, has cautioned the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) against committing further school boys’ blunders as the country prepares for the forthcoming Mundial. The former Super Eagles’ gaffer, who is still pained by the recent sanction slammed on the country by FIFA over the use of an ineligible player, Abdullahi Shehu, in the last World Cup qualifier. Though the veteran coach admits that no human being is infallible, he insists that with her football pedigree, Nigeria should never be found wanting in that regards. “We are all human beings, people can make mistakes, but such mistakes are not expected of a nation like Nigeria with her pedigree in world football. Are we then saying that we don’t have one single person, who understands the rules of the game? “If anybody managing our football claims ignorance of these regulations then I do not know what more to say about it. This does not cut a good picture of the country. But we are lucky that in spite of it, we are still going to the World Cup. Onigbinde, who said that the fine from FIFA does not speak well of the country added, “Let’s hope that we are not going to make further blunders. Football administration is a very simple thing if only we decide to do it right. “Towards the 2002 World Cup in Korea/Japan, I appointed a staff of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) as the team secretary. This automatically made him the team’s administrative head. His job was to keep all records and alert us. I am very much aware of the set up in the NFF’s Technical Department, and I am of the opinion that the technical department has not been adequately empowered.” Onigbinde, who became the first indigenous coach to take the country to the World Cup said: “If they had agreed for me to sit down with them, I would have pointed out the grey areas in the department to them. That problem is still there up till today and there is even a bigger confusion as regards the functions of those in that department. “These are the lapses we are talking about, there is a lot of things wrong with our football administration because we are not doing it right. If you don’t do it right, you cannot get it right and it is most unfortunate. I am very sad about the sanction, not only sad, but also angry. I rarely get angry but this time around, I am angry, because I know we are capable of doing things better. I can only wish Nigeria the very best of luck,” he stated. https://m.guardian.ng/sport/guard-against-further-blunders-onigbinde-cautions-nff/ 2 Likes |

Sunderland Boss Hails Nigerian Wonderkids After First Home Win In 2017 ![]() Sunderland manager Chris Coleman had nothing but praise for Nigerian wonderkids Josh Maja and Joel Asoro after they came off the bench to help the Black Cats secure a 1-0 win over Fulham at the Stadium of Light on Saturday. Maja needed only five minutes to net the winner after his introduction and gave Sunderland their first home win in 2017 Sunderland's last home win before the contest against the Cottagers was against Watford on December 17, 2016, and they had played 21 matches at the Stadium of Light without winning. ''It was a great finish,” Coleman told safc.com. ''The game was balanced nicely and it was a nice time to introduce two new strikers onto the pitch. ''Grabbs and Vaughany had done their job really well, they had worked really hard and apart from a fantastic save from the Fulham No.1, we would’ve been 1-0 up anyway. ''We thought it was a good moment to bring on two young players and they didn’t disappoint.'' Maja's performance at Sunderland is being monitored by the Nigeria Football Federation, and the ex-Man City starlet was called up to the Super Eagles squad for their get-together in London in March 2017.

Those of you watching Barca v Depo can see why Cristiano Ronaldo would never be able to clean Messi's booths. Messi just burned the Depo defenceline and instead of tapping the ball into the net, he switched it over to Luis Suarez to tap in .... because he knew that Suarez needed that goal more than him. FACT: This is something Cristiano Ronaldo would not do to save his life. O pari 4 Likes |

Joebie:it's December, if he remains in form till March AND gets an invite, fine. For now, he is not in the fold and has just about 10% chance of making the list. What is he? A RB? We have that in excess these days, we don't need more problems for Rohr. He is thankfully, not the only RB we have who is in form, so, on what basis should Rohr's issues be compounded? |

To be quite honest with you, I will probably support Messi. The world owns Messi a World Cup. It would be absurd for the Greatest Player of All Time to retire without winning the biggest silverware of them all. I may probably cry and refuse to eat the day (if) Argentina gets knocked out in Russia next year. It would mirror the way I felt when Denmark broke Nigeria's hearts in France 1998. I can still remember that day very well - Slava, my Russian gf at that time thought that I was going into a deep depression. I didn't I refused to eat for 2 days or so. O pari AIG07: |

Messi has hit a hatrick of woodworks today, but none went in yet. But we still have 20 mins remaining, so there's hope. Meanwhile, Barca is leading Depo by 3-0 already, so there's no tension ![]() For the season, Leo Messi has scored 14 goals and hit the woodwork 14 times! O pari |
