If this story is true, all those involved in getting a foreign coach, whether being NFF or sport ministry member, the agent, both high and low, it's time to disgrace them all, because this are the real enemies of football in Nigeria , always looking for where to feed on, ikwerreman, since you know all this people, do no fail to name them, time to chase all this thieves from Nigeria football.

Go back to the said thread and read it again. Never called him an angel*.

After the group stages, I believe every Nigerian felt this way too. it is easy to act sanctimonious now but I believe that after the shoddy performance against Ethiopia, if you conducted a referendum in Nigeria on whether Keshi should stay or go, at least 95% of the 170m polled would have voted for his sack.

The problem lies in the whole system...it won't stop when you eleminate certain persons...new thieves are already looking forward to their arrival.

you aren't making any sense... After the group stages, who made it out of the group? And which 2 teams made the final in soccer city? Do you critically think sometimes? Or you just go with the flow? Aren't you a man who can use his own head to reason?haba...smh

I seriously doubt your statistic. Using CE as a yard stick to gauge public opinion, only a minority wanted him sacked if he had crashed out of the group stage.

Death threat ? that is a joke right ? tell me you are joking becouse if you are not you should make it public if you really have this kind of babaric behavior on tape

Every Nigerian? really?

Absolute hogwash!

This is why the so-called nigerian football "commentator/analyst" needs to grow up and mature. If you take CE alone as a sample, there are far more folk here who had an appreciation for the poor Nespruit pitch and its impact on passing football and the dodgy ref that brought Zambia temporarily back from the dead. It was only a minority here on CE that called for Keshi's head. So, how can that be extrapolated to around 160 million nigerians. Folk here are unbelievable!

What shoddy performance against Ethiopia?

No offence but how can a man your age reason like this....

Red Card Foul!!!
That you "believed" it has no bearing whatsoever on the reality of the matter.
Granted, labile and emotional fans can still be forgiven for losing their nerve in the heat of battle and not being able to analyse events accurately, but not members of a professional football body such as the NFF!

I might as well as get my grandmother to run the NFF if all that is needed for it to go into wild panic is to draw with a top team (BF), draw with the defending champions (Zambia) and then beat a team that has always been half decent (Ethiopia). Your "95%" is way off the mark. Even here on CE, as unrepentantly cynical as it can be, probably less than 30% would have asked for his sack at the time, with another 20-30% remaining neutral.

The NFF have NO excuse!

Dude speak for yourself. The fact you are loud or a noise maker does not make you representative of popular opinion. Where is your evidence for making such a claim? which poll or referendum did you carry out. You have every right to your own opinion, but please spare me the grandiose view of projecting or ascribing your view as representative of popular opinion.
You have no evidence to support your claim.

Make una leave Ayo my friend o.

After the first match, i was depressed, i refused to watch the 2nd game live, not in spite but i was working and did not want to take time off, sacking the coach in the middle of the competition is never called for, if Keshi did not qualify for the knock out stages, i am sure in all honesty, i would have thought he was a bad coach but at least he took young players to the tournament, that in itself one has to applaud, building for the future, well the NFF have always been rogues, they know if the presidency wades in, they have FIFA to back them up in case they decide to dissolve the entire NFF board, maybe in hindsight a clean up is long overdue and yes screw FIFA is they decide to fine Nigeria, at least those illiterates will be unemployed, that to me is enough satisfaction!!

Please speak for yourself and a lot of useless, no good for nothing airheads that call themselves fan.

Eye pleasing display does not mean you have a good team. We've been telling you guys this all the time but you won't listen.

You guys think a football should wear mini skirt, lip stick, false eye lashes and be called "sexy".

A good team is the one that can get result even when playing badly not pone that plays attractive football and win nothing.

That is why we always sack coaches prematurely. If Keshi had left after Ethiopia game what would we be celebrating now?
