Nice line ups of friendlies
I am very sure this is coming courtesy invitations from those federations and not at the behest of the NFF.
Does it matter? That many paths to paradise. The most important outcome is that at the end of the day, it’s two quality friendlies.
It does matter.
Firstly it has become habitual…..and that is why our teams struggle with poor preparations of late when no one comes calling for friendlies.
Secondly, organising friendlies is another way FAs make money…one of the reasons why the NFF is perpetually broke….they are too lay to think.
Thirdly, it only means someody in the NFF will get millions of Naira richer because no questions get to been asked as to how hundreds of millions of naira appear in NFF’s annual financial reports as being appropriated for friendlies which were NOT organized by the NFF.
You are so right @9jaRealist, it does not matter.
