Don’t say because HE is not YOUR OWN, like GENERAL ROAH you go and give HIM a STUPID CONTRACT with all those una STRIGENT and very TIGHT CONDITIONS…
And then at the END of the DAY you be EXPECTING him to DELIVER when you have actually use that CONTRACT to make COACHING difficult for HIM…
Cos this man might be different from GENERAL ROAH who despite all the HARSH TREATMENT from the NFF, HE still met all the GOALS (But some BAD BELLE still FIRED HIM).
So please TREAT him NICELY and FAIRLY…
