Like I said in one of the game threads...if you know the things Bakare and some of the other coaches have done for the team, and the things the players have had to go thru over the years, you will be tempted to swear off everything Nigerian... these guys have heart, determination, desire, and pure selflessness.
And indeed, they WILL keep getting better.

Even though I like stories, I want to see some more actions, those guys went through a lot, I hope someone high in the Sports Ministry is planning to do something about this.

Now you see what we are talking about. Just look at how injury decimated them. Yet some would like the coach sacked! Are we so wicked?

The bobo should step aside before dying because of Nigeria. Seems Nigeria and Nigerians are not worth the trouble.

The reason they've had to go through a tunnel of $hit is precisely because of the sports ministry Player...Put your hopes and prayers somewhere else :(

Keshi said that before the team arrived South Africa that he told skipper Joseph Yobo that the Eagles were going to win the Cup but the former Everton defender did not believe.

Don't expect much... Nobody in sports ministry is going to do anything... Its back to business as usual...
