I am so happy about this news.
i have been following Tirani since i heard he took over as their coach and what makes this title crown more special is the fact that Tirani was in a mid table position when Egbo took over. infact their other coach was sacked bcox they feared they could be relegated at the end of the season if they continue that way.Egbo Then came in and turn every thing around.firing at all cylinders,
and eventually, clinch the title for them.

u have made us proud.
jxt keep ur head down and continue the good work in next season’s Champions league.
wish you all the best in your coaching career.

Pompous African Guadiolas…Twitter coaches…..Ndi nobody wants to give us jobs because we are black….over to una o. An unheralded Egbo has shown y’all the way. Humble yourselves and go and ask him how he did it in the same Europe.
This guy deserve national honour in Nigeria and thé guy that returned thé Japanese wallet.
We are proud of you. Congratulations and to God be the glory.
Abeg NFF do quick and extend invitation to african guardiola. Lets see what he can do different. Since Albania league is now top notch in european, so says the attention seekers
Better being a coach in the Albanian top division, wining the league or leading ones team out to compete in European competitions, than being a coach on twitter, supersport or in Night clubs. If the Nff is not a conclave of incompetent figure heads, these are the kinds of people who have proved themselves worthy and qualified to be on the technical team of our national teams. Hiring “beautiful gate” beggars, newspaper/internet noisemakers and twitter jobbers must be a better way to go than hiring people who have years of experience….. so says senseless scavengers (whose 1st time of hearing about player-coaches all their lives was from attention seekers) LMAO….!
Want to bring it to the attention of forumites, if i begin my insults now, some of you are quick to take sides, and will be called all sorts of names. Now your Dr Dry has started, will let this one slide, and if you want to go that route, no problem by me. So let those who are turning blind eyes to your comment, keep silent
“…So let those who are turning blind eyes to your comment, keep silent…”
So the Cheif Whip of CSN forum should carry cane and flog Dr.Drey for you abi….LMAO
My comments appear toxic to you but who wrote this;
“….Abeg NFF do quick and extend invitation to african guardiola. Lets see what he can do different. Since Albania league is now top notch in european, so says the attention seekers…”
Those who live in glass house dont throw stones.
Begin your insults na…It wont come as a shock….of course that’s all you’ve ever offered CSN….insults and bling arguments.
If you also want to go that route too no problem…Kukute o mira jigi…eni mi kukute ara e lo n mi. You will show us where anybody mentioned your name in his comment.
Una won start?
You don’t have to call out my name, because your last statement was directed to the reply i made. Like i said i will let this slide, am not those that follow you blindly without doing there homework. Everyone is entitle to there opnion on this forum
…and who was your own comment directed to….??? Zeus…or Hercules…? I’l rather prefer sensible and intelligent people to “follow” me. If nobody sees you “good enough” to follow you, that is your own headache.
As you have said Everyone is entitled to their opinion on this forum…I’m also entitled to mine and its nobody’s headache if “people follow me blindly or ‘unblindly’..” based on my opinions. Like I too also said earlier if you also want to go that route too no problem….ko ko ko la b’ogun….kan kan kan la b’osa. Once again…Those who live in glass houses dont throw stones.
To God be the glory. I am very happy for you coach Egbo. Congratulations coach.
Ex players of the Super Eagles keeps knocking on the door of the Eagles and I’m pretty sure that one day, NFF will open the for them again.
God bless Nigeria!!!
