Re: Nike finally taking Nigeria serious.
Can we go back to the jersey we used at ANC 1994?

Re: Nike finally taking Nigeria serious.
Bros, I really do see where you are coming from. What makes me shake my head is the fact that a lot of people here spend money on jerseys of fairly successful European clubs. What I want to see if the repeated success, from African teams, on the world stage for decades. That way I will see if other people return the favour and procure African team jerseys.Polly wrote:I don't care in what bleeping colour we play in. I just want a team that can beat people up and cause fear wherever they go.
And experience teaches that we'll be fallen over our beer bottles to buy the jerseys, even if they are blue and black. I want to win, abeg!!

Re: Nike finally taking Nigeria serious.
Regardless of how poor the design is I still make it a point of duty to purchase SE jersey.
2 of the finest indigenous coaches Nigeria ever had lost in a space of 4 days. Dear Lord, is this a sign that you are taking away from us what we failed to appreciate? I pray for forgiveness of our sins. I pray for the humility to recognize our wrongs and the humbleness and wisdom to right our ways.

Re: Nike finally taking Nigeria serious.
Saw a German couple in NYC with one kid. Kid was wearing a Diop Senegal jersey. I have seen quite a few Americans rocking the (old Nike) SE jersey. Granted that was in the early 2000s.

Re: Nike finally taking Nigeria serious.
I saw that jersey at Ikeja mall NIKE shop in march, was not feeling it at all and the price put me right off almost 60 pounds.

Yep, they certainly will be complaining. They are never happy or satisfied with their own. Manufacture a product in Aba, label it as "made in Aba" and you will be lucky if a thousand is sold. Label the same product - manufactured in Aba - as "made in the USA, Italy, Germany" and et al. and you will sell hundreds of thousands of it within a month.joao wrote:I'm sure the fans will be the ones complaining that the SE kits arehighbury wrote:I have always wondered why we can't give to the Aba traders to make it for the SE.

Re: Nike finally taking Nigeria serious.
Not true. Price is a major determining factor. Produce a quality jersey, price it at an affordable rate and then put it on Konga or Jumia, it will fly off the shelf.[color=brown]Odas[/color] wrote:Yep, they certainly will be complaining.

Re: Nike finally taking Nigeria serious.
Nike is planning on making Nigeria one of their pinnacle teams for the World Cup in '18. Same pedestal as France, Brazil, USA. We absolutely need to make it to the Mundial. From my understanding, this is as big an opportunity to brand ourselves as we've had since probably 1998.

Nigeria would have to be with adidas for that to happen.

CE is a funny place. It is a perfect microcosm of Nigeria, and the world indeed. Bouncing, you are disappointing me! In the day and age of Google, when you can easily verify something. You have chosen to argue. Nigeria didn't switch to Nike till later that year after the world cup....in time for the England friendly if memory serves me well

And, for me, its neither due to the 'success' of that era nor mere nostalgia...
