CONGRATULATIONS TO FINIDI To the naysayers - you know yourselves, despite the fake congratulatory notes, the false "hope he proves me wrong" and the "I'm praying for him" - your true sentiments are well documented here. Only a foreign manager, even a journeyman foreigner, inspir...

Re: Guys stop telling Finidi what to do

Abeg shut your gob! I kinda think telling coach what to do is the behavior of fans everywhere. I’d be chill about it....

Who are the people that actually vote to recommend a coach to the board for approval? I know Eguavoen is the Director but who are the other people on that committee?

I do not see that foreign coaches have demonstrated the qualities that you have mentioned above any more than local managers. So we can agree to disagree. Again we can agree to disagree on the African football element. You need to play African teams before you get to the global stage. So how did Am...
