ICELAND !!

Post by bazzwella »

Iceland is a small nation, very small, it actually has a population of slightly over 300,000 people, fewer than any county in Africa .

What is more interesting is that apparently 5 of the players in the squad are Medical doctors, actually everyone in the team has another professional job they do, the goalkeeper a renown country's Movie Director and others in different professions.

Even the Coach when he is off the field he is a practicing Dentist.

Nigeria, an African country on the Gulf of Guinea, has many natural landmarks and wildlife reserves. Protected areas such as Cross River National Park and Yankari National Park have waterfalls, dense rainforest, savanna and rare primate habitats. One of the most recognizable sites is Zuma Rock, a 725m-tall monolith outside the capital of Abuja that’s pictured on the national currency.

I never realised the elevation of Zuma rock was over 1km!

while it is a third the width of Uluru, it is twice as high.

We should be doing more to market it.
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

What does Gylfi Sigurðsson do when he is done training at Everton?


Lets concentrate on that first. After which, I'd like to know what Jóhann Guðmundsson does after training is over at Burnley, Aron Gunnarsson does when he is done training at Cardiff, and Birkir Bjarnason, after he is done training at Aston Villa, and Alfreð Finnbogason, when Ausbug are done with training?

Funny enough, many Icelandic players play in better leagues and better clubs than Nigeria's players. But dont worry, lets keep peddling the false narrative.

You read some of the nonsense floating around and you wonder if we are not better off as illiterates. Someone posted the crap to me , by the time i was done with him, he started saying someone also posted it to him. I told him he should have cross checked before sharing it. I proceeded to tell him to use his google more...
