Re: Official Training for Nigeria ahead Sao Tome
I read on Owngoalnigeria that the contract for the maintenance of the Abuja stadium pitch was awarded to a company that had no equipment. They even borrowed the water sprinklers used before the WCQ against Ghana.Undertaker wrote: ↑Mon Jun 13, 2022 2:20 am See green grass compare to the cow grassing field in Abuja? What a disgrace!

This is where man know man instead of competence has gotten us to!
I am happy
Re: Official Training for Nigeria ahead Sao Tome
It's not the same climate. It's harder for us in West Africa, but that should not be an excuse. We should have found ways to manage grass by now to cater to our harsher climate.Undertaker wrote: ↑Mon Jun 13, 2022 3:00 am If all the North Africans have keep World standard grass stadium then I don't understand why the rest us sub Saharan African countries struggles? 2022 and we are so backward it isn't funny anymore!

I mean, surely even Abuja is more suitable for grass than Agadir.

It's actually harder to maintain good grass in tropical regions because of the extreme weather. Harder rain, harder sun, more humid, more insects and worms feeding on the grass, etc. All contribute to destroying the grass. Different methods would be needed to maintain good grass in tropical regions.

Personally I just think it’s incompetence and likely a degree of corruption.waka-man wrote: ↑Mon Jun 13, 2022 12:08 pmI’m not expect so maybe I’m missing something but surely our greener climate should mean better grass, no?Orion wrote: ↑Mon Jun 13, 2022 11:05 amIt's not the same climate.

There are numerous species of grass for different climates and some grasses actually thrive better in ‘harsh’ climates than in mild ones.
It’s just the know-how which is available for those that wish to learn.
But with Naija, you just never know what the damn problem is.

Re: Official Training for Nigeria ahead Sao Tome
Although it is harder to grow grass in tropical environments the lack of irrigation is a problem.
Growing grass in Naija would be like growing grass in Florida versus Wisconsin or Michigan. It’s a difficult task.
Chinch bugs
Heat
Excessive rain
Keeping my lawn beautiful is work. In Michigan and Colorado, it looked like Wembley. No work involved.
When I was a kid, Liberty stadium Ibadan has an awesome field and excellent drainage but most importantly an excellent maintenance program.
