Alarming from ACL, claim Pinnick/Rohr DESPISE NPFL players

Hi guys, I hope everyone's well. As anyone who follows me on Twitter may know, I've embarked this afternoon on attempting to correct an injustice whereby ACL Sports have made the claim that Pinnick & Rohr 'despise locally grown talent'. Obviously, anyone can see how incendiary and damaging this ...

Re: EPL fantasy league 2019/2020 season(season start 8/9/19)

Guys, Anyone considering joining the 2019-20 Cyber Eagles FPL, please beware, that 2017-18 CyberEagles champion Eddy Dove and his heroes Club Courageous have announced their entry into the upcoming league. Obviously this reduces anyone else's chances of winning, but by all means do enter - it's the ...

Should this be allowed? Super Eagles kit rip-off

I'm sure a few of you guys have already seen this, but Tunisian second division side EO Sidi Bouzid have completely copied the iconic Super Eagles jersey for their new season kit. I can't believe it, and I can't understand how it can be allowed. I mean, lovely kit and all, but this is just copying.....

Re: Ed Dove Nigeria World Cup preview vid

Thanks for the kind words guys, much appreciated. Moses - like Mikel, Ndidi and Troost-Ekong - will be a key man for Nigeria in Russia, but I was limited with how many I could go for! Also, I suspect that Mikel/Ndidi will be more central to the Super Eagles' chances of seeing off Croatia in their op...

Re: Interactive: Nigeria World Cup squad selector

It will be intriguing to see which way Rohr plays it. To be honest, we should be delighted that Nigeria have such wealth of options at full-back - no need to drag someone in from the dark like Kunle Odulami four years ago!

Re: Interactive: Nigeria World Cup squad selector

http://i68.tinypic.com/5n1375.jpg In my opinion, this squad will go far in Russia . Rohr must ensure that Mikel only plays 60mins when we are leading and 80mins when we are drawing. This elevn has 6 strong defensive players and 4 players that can create and finish. Victor Moses must treat Simy as G...

Re: Nigeria squad: New dawn?

I personally think it's a good move to give two new reserve goalkeepers a chance to integrate with the side and maybe even get game time. It's been Ejide and Agbim for too long. I'm not saying they're not still the best two back-ups, but use friendlies like this to assess other options. Best,
