2024 Nairaland Nigeria Football Fans Award


Update


Gents,

The next step now is to select of the nomination committee.
The committee will be responsible for selecting the the awards categories as well as nominees for each category.

Traditionally, selecting of of the nomination committee was done through voting. I personally like that method because it ensure that all of the thread have the chance to select the most ionate and knowledgeable monikers to nominate players for the award.
However, every year, there's always this problem of those who are voted to be part of the committee not being active... Last year, almost 80% of monikers that were voted to be part of the committee quit... Others were either inactive or unavailable.
I understand that we all have our lives to live and work stuffs won't allow some of us participate actively.
On this note, I've decided that this year, the nomination committee will be made up of who Volunteer to .. that way, we can be ensured of some level of commitment.

Here's how it will be done: If you're interested in being a member of the committee, quote this post with one word "Interested". Other of the thread will give credence to your nomination by liking the post.
The top 8 monikers with the most likes and shares will make up the nomination committee alongside I and icon4s who, by default is a honourary member of the committee,being the founder of this award.


Voting closes on Monday December 16th 2024 at 6pm Nigeria time


Thank you

PS: if anyone has an objection to the chosen method of selecting committee , do not hesitate to let me know...maybe we can work out another method

Longevity Troost


To Imagine that Local coach almost bundled him off with silliest remarks/analysis of abilities, is one for big vex.

Now he's the heart of this team. Respect and Regard, while doing primary duty without his long lost partner in crime, Leon Balogun of the Oyinbo Wall.



And here he is, still playing so well at this level, a fans favorite.

Local coaches need to upgrade their Analysis caps tbvh. Especially for FBs.

I pray he wraps it up with that AFCON in the bag.

I see a future eagle coach in Troost. He’s got something

I nominate the supernerd

Omanambala:


The problem with you is ability. Be responsible for your mistakes and stop throwing useless grammar around. Instead of you to take corrections and apologize for misquoting me you went ahead to insult me...this is crazy

Apologize to what exactly?

Omanambala:


You have comprehension problems...read again!

You say what? Probably you’re the one with dysgraphia.

Omanambala:


Dont you know a lot of Nigerians are naturally sense..less. They are filled with bitterness and ignorance. They attack Nwakali because he is loved not because he is a bad player

Na wa oo. You had to call the whole Nigeria senseless to proof your points. What does that make you?

Future of Nigeria defense

2023 AFCON DRAW

GROUP A

Ivory Coast (Host)
Nigeria
Equitorial Guinea
Guinea Bissau

We will not qualify from this group. Best point tally we will get is 3 point. Strikers don’t win games, only a team does. As it stands we don’t have a team. We just have few players that turn up once in a while. Tunisian found us out in the last tournament by clipping our wings … we are now so predictable. In a serious tournament like Afcon most of the teams know how we will play already.
