Why is everyone blaming NFF? What about the Senegal FA? Are they also clueless?

Buhari, whose two terms thankfully ground to a constitutional halt in May. (One thing both democracies have going for them is that their leaders, however bad, have only two terms to swing the wrecking ball.) Under Buhari, growth per head also plunged to 0. An economic agenda drawn from the dusty pages of a 1970s protectionist handbook failed to do the trick. Despite Buhari’s promise to tame terrorism and criminality, violence flourished. Despite his reputation for probity, corruption swirled. FT

Re: JUST 1,400 COULD WATCH NIGERIA vs SENEGAL?
How many British-Nigerians even knew this match was happening? I had no idea we were playing today, let alone in London, until yesterday. Had i known earlier i'd be going.
Admittedly i don't follow football as much as i used to, but i bet a lot of people are in the same position. We didn't even know about the match, it's not about being 'cash stingy'.

Re: JUST 1,400 COULD WATCH NIGERIA vs SENEGAL?
All these arguments claiming inadequate publicity appear weak. Are we saying that London based Naijans haven't logged on to any social media or been on the Internet in or month or they haven't had the privilege of watching any of the Naija-centric TV stations where the info is readily available. Seriously, why are Naija-based Nigerians more informed than their UK-based counterparts despite having less access to Internet services? Meanwhile, these same Nigerians have all the information about Trump and every irrelevant things on the face of the planet except a Super Eagles match in the UK that doesn't come often.
I make bold to say that if The Hive has a capacity of 6,000 and a total of 1,400 had purchased ticket at the time of opening thread; I have a feeling that there are more than that number of UK-based CEs who would have read that the match would be played.
Another question that this raises is if Nigerians in the UK claim ignorance of the game, is it that these Nigerians are so busy that they don't interact with the world?

Re: JUST 1,400 COULD WATCH NIGERIA vs SENEGAL?
With the amount of time and money i spent to go to South Africa and watch Yakubu miss an open net, i think i should have a pass for life when it comes to excuses for missing SE games. Don't even get me started on all the games a lot of us went to, only for the SE to be represented by 'Hey You' and his 4th cousin.oloye wrote:Stop digging my good friendEagle Winged wrote:I'm not a Londoner, i'm 2 hours outside of London.oloye wrote:Wetin persin nor go hear for this place.....i am waiting for someone to tell us that the ticket they bought was mistakenly eaten up by bingo their mongrel dog who loves to eat tickets.

Re: JUST 1,400 COULD WATCH NIGERIA vs SENEGAL?
Many of our brothers in London may shun the game for several reasons. I read somewhere a couple of days ago that the Immigration in London is now doing what ICE has been doing in USA. That is, stop people at bus/train station and ask for documentation. That would force some folks to stay home.oloye wrote:Nigerians in London are very very busy oh...ko easy rara!anointed wrote:All these arguments claiming inadequate publicity appear weak.

The recent terrorist attack (yesterday) is a good reason for them to stay put. I would not go out either under those circumstances.
Less than 48 hours ago, a crazy white supremacist came to NY from Maryland and stabbed a black man to death for no apparent reason. He claimed he just wanted to make a point. That makes me think twice before going out alone at night!
Cheers!!!
