 *2024* *PARIS* *OLYMPICS* *GAMES* ( *WOMEN* *FOOTBALL* *EVENT* )!

 *HOW* ! *(GUSAU)* *NFF* *BOARD* ; *(BUNDLED)* ; *SUPER* *FALCONS* ; *OUT* !

Yes! It's yet again! Another TERRIBLY BAD NEWS for Nigeria Football and the Entire Nation! Again! Caused by the lneptness and Cluelessness of the (non Contributing) GUSAU STATE FA CHAIRMEN NFF BOARD! Yes! The Highly Unpalatable and Unflattering Poor Display of our SUPER FALCONS, at the Ongoing 2024 PARIS OLYMPICS GAMES (Women Football Event); was CAUSED by the INADEQUATE PREPARATIONS Unleashed on our helpless SUPER FALCONS; by our Visionless (non Stakeholding) STATE FA CHAIRMEN NFF BOARD led by lbrahim Gusau; among 3 OTHER BLUNDERS! Yes! It's no longer NEWS that our SUPER FALCONS (the Nation's SENIOR WOMEN FOOTBALL TEAM); who are our SOLE FLAGBEARERS at the PARIS OLYMPICS? Have CRASHED OUT of the OLYMPICS WOMEN FOOTBALL EVENT and in the FIRST ROUND! But! 

The MAIN NEWS however, is that our dear SUPER FALCONS (who Last APPEARED at the OLYMPICS GAMES, about 16 YEARS ago)? Not ONLY were BOOTED OUT of the OLYMPICS WOMEN FOOTBALL EVENT; but our SUPER FALCONS EXITED the OLYMgames with ZERO MISERABLE POINTS from an AVAILABLE 9 POINTS, LOSING ALL 3 MATCHES of the FIRST ROUND! What's Worrisome and Alarming in the SUPER FALCONS Unsavoury Adventure at the PARIS OLYMPICS GAMES; is that the SUPER FALCONS FAILURE to MAKE IT to the NEXT ROUND (Quarter Finals); was again CAUSED by EXACTLY the SAME FOUR (4) BLUNDERS of the (non Shareholding) GUSAU STATE FA CHAIRMEN NFF BOARD; led by the BLUNDER of INADEQUATE PREPARATIONS! 

Yes! Exactly the SAME AVOIDABLE BLUNDERS committed by the Missionless Self Appointed (non Contributing) GUSAU STATE FA CHAIRMEN NFF BOARD; that led to the EMBARRASSING EXIT of the SUPER FALCONS, from the PARIS OLYMPICS WOMEN FOOTBALL EVENT? Were Exactly the SAME BLUNDERS that were RESPONSIBLE for the INGLORIOUS CRASH of our U17 GOLDEN EAGLETS; out of both the AFCON U17 TOURNAMENT and the FIFA U17 WORLD CUP CHAMPIONSHIPS; at the WAFU B U17 QUALIFYING TOURNAMENT! Yes! The 4 AVOIDABLE BLUNDERS of the Self Annointed (non Stakeholding) GUSAU STATE FA CHAIRMEN NFF BOARD; which FUMBLED the SUPER FALCONS out of the OLYMPICS GAMES? Were also Exactly the SAME FACTORS led by INADEQUATE PREPARATIONS that Frivolously SENT PACKING the COACH LADAN BOSSO led U20 FLYING EAGLES; from the ALL AFRICAN GAMES FOOTBALL EVENT! 

Again! Exactly, the SAME AVOIDABLE BLUNDERS of the Self Imposed (non Representative) Agenda-less GUSAU STATE FA CHAIRMEN NFF BOARD; were RESPONSIBLE for the DISGRACEFUL FAILURE of our U23 OLYMPICS EAGLES; to QUALIFY for 2 BACK TO BACK (Consecutive) OLYMPICS GAMES! And yet again! Exactly the SAME FOUR (4) AVOIDABLE BLUNDERS of the Wasteful (non Shareholding) GUSAU STATE FA CHAIRMEN NFF, that MANGLED the SUPER FALCONS, out of the PARIS OLYMPICS GAMES WOMEN FOOTBALL EVENT; are EXACTLY the UNWARRANTED BLUNDERS that CAUSED the FAILURE of the SUPER EAGLES; to QUALIFY for 2 BACK TO BACK (Consecutive) FIFA SENIOR WORLD CUP CHAMPIONSHIPS! 

Upon further Deeper Analysis of the CAUSE of the now Perennial DISASTROUS and DISTURBING PERFORMANCE of ALL our NATIONAL FOOTBALL TEAMS in lnternational Football Competitions; especially since the ADVENT of the Much Villified AMAJU PINNICK/ IBRAHIM GUSAU (non Contributing) STATE FA CHAIRMEN NFF BOARDS; into the saddle of the Administration of Nigeria Football lndustry? *SLIDING* *TACKLES* Unveiled that Every UNCEREMONIOUS CRASH of ALL our NATIONAL FOOTBALL TEAMS? Be it the Super Eagles; Super Falcons, U23 Olympics Eagles; U20 Flying Eagles; U17 Golden Eaglets? Were ALL CAUSED by ONE or MORE of the AVOIDABLE INEXCUSABLE BLUNDERS of the (non Contributing) STATE FA CHAIRMEN NFF BOARDS of PINNICK/GUSAU! It's Deeply Worrisome and Annoying to realize that the External lnvading (non Stakeholding) PINNICK/GUSAU STATE FA CHAIRMEN NFF BOARDS, who Bulldozed into the Administration of ourFootball lndustry? Would ALLOW EXACTLY the SAME AVOIDABLE BLUNDERS; to CONSISTENTLY CRASH OUT, ALL OUR NATIONAL FOOTBALL TEAMS; from WORLD FOOTBALL QUALIFIER TOURNAMENTS, without ANY EXCEPTIONS! 

Now! Let's look at the FOUR (4) AVOIDABLE BLUNDERS of the PINNICK/GUSAU STATE FA CHAIRMEN NFF BOARDS; that CAUSED the Unscheduled EARLY EXIT of both the SUPER FALCONS and our OTHER NATIONAL FOOTBALL TEAMS; from lnternational Football Champions!

1. *LATE* *APPOINTMENT* *OF* *NATIONAL* *TEAMS* *COACHES*

Yes! The Most Consistent and Highly Condemnable HALLMARK of the present Self Annointed (non Stakeholding) STATE FA CHAIRMEN NFF BOARD led by lbrahim Gusau; is the BOARD'S ADDICTION to APPOINTING COACHES of our NATIONAL FOOTBALL TEAMS; VERY CLOSE to lnternational Football Competitions! And this particular COSTLY BLUNDER of the Aimless Self Imposed (non Contributing) GUSAU STATE FA CHAIRMEN NFF BOARD; cuts ACROSS ALL CATEGORIES of our NATIONAL FOOTBALL TEAMS, without ANY EXCEPTIONS! Yes! The COACH of the FLYING EAGLES (Ladan Bosso); was APPOINTED just 2 WEEKS to the ALL AFRICAN GAMES; which led to the EMBARRASSING CRASH of the FLYING EAGLES, at the AFRICAN GAMES! Then! The COACH of the GOLDEN EAGLETS (Manu Garba); was again Only APPOINTED just 3 WEEKS to the WAFU B U17 QUALIFYING TOURNAMENT; which BUNDLED the GOLDEN EAGLETS; out of both the AFCON U17 TOURNAMENT and the FIFA U17 WORLD CUP CHAMPIONSHIPS! 

Again! The COACH of the OLYMPICS EAGLES (Salisu Yusuf); was Only APPOINTED just 3 WEEKS to the Crucial AFCON U23 QUALIFYING TOURNAMENT; which FUMBLED the OLYMPICS EAGLES; out of both the AFCON U23 TOURNAMENT and the PARIS OLYMPICS GAMES (FOOTBALL EVENT)! Yet again! The COACH of the SUPER SAND EAGLES; was again Only APPOINTED just 2 WEEKS to the Crucial AFCON BEACH SOCCER QUALIFIER TOURNAMENT; which again CRASHED OUT, our BEACH SAND EAGLES; out of both the AFCON BEACH SOCCER TOURNAMENT and the FIFA BEACH SOCCER CHAMPIONSHIPS!  Further again! The COACH of the SUPER EAGLES (Finidi George); was Only APPOINTED just 3 WEEKS to the Crucial WORLD CUP QUALIFYING MATCHES; which Effectively DENTED our QUALIFICATION HOPES of APPEARING at the Next FIFA SENIOR WORLD CUP CHAMPIONSHIPS!

And now! The COACH of the SUPER FALCONS (Randy Waldrum); was Only RE-APPOINTED just 2 WEEKS to the Crucial ROUNDS of the PARIS OLYMPICS GAMES QUALIFIERS! So! It's Clear from the above Statistical Analysis, which Consistently Exposed that ALL OUR NATIONAL FOOTBALL TEAMS; who had their COACHES APPOINTED LATE; FAILED to PERFORM at their INDIVIDUAL INTERNATIONAL FOOTBALL COMPETITIONS! Flowing from this Analogy, it's Safe to Conclude that the SUPER FALCONS Disappointing PERFORMANCE at the PARIS OLYMPICS GAMES WOMEN FOOTBALL EVENT; was CAUSED by the LATE APPOINTMENT of the SUPER FALCONS COACH (Randy Waldrum); who had NO TIME to BLEND his SUPER FALCONS!

2. *INADEQUATE* *CAMPING/PREPARATIONS* 

Yes! It's Unarguable and lncontrovertible; that indeed; a COACH is INCHARGE of FORMING his TEAM SQUAD! It's therefore again, safe to assert that the BUILDING and PACKAGING a FOOTBALL TEAM; starts from the APPOINTMENT of the TEAM'S COACH! So! It's therefore Clear to Everyone that the EARLY/TIMELY APPOINTMENT of a TEAM'S COACH; is CARDINAL to the OVERALL SUCCESS and PERFORMANCE of the TEAM! But! In our own Unfortunate Nigeria Case; where Some Meddlesome lnterloppers calling Themselves - STATE FA CHAIRMEN NFF BOARD led by lbrahim Gusau; are holding ILLEGAL ADMINISTRATION SWAY? Nigeria Football has Witnessed the Abhorable Reality of our NATIONAL FOOTBALL TEAMS COACHES, lrresponsibly and Recklessly, APPOINTED VERY LATE; leading to INADEQUATE PREPARATIONS for our NATIONAL FOOTBALL TEAMS; and the ULTIMATE FAILURES, we Witness from them! 

Yes! It's True, that ALL OUR NATIONAL FOOTBALL TEAMS whose COACHES were APPOINTED LATE; FAILED WOEFULLY in their various QUALIFICATION ASSIGNMENTS, for the Nation; due to INADEQUATE PREPARATIONS! The Current trending Sad Case of the SUPER FALCONS OLYMPICS Adventure; where the SUPER FALCONS were UNLEASHED with a Misery INADEQUATE PREPARATIONS of just 2 WEEKS to the PARIS OLYMPICS; with just ONE FRIENDLY MATCH (against CANADA); can't by any stretch of lmagination be DESCRIBED as ADEQUATE PREPARATIONS! Even! The SUPER FALCONS COACH, WALDRUM, cited INADEQUATE PREPARATIONS as the MAJOR CAUSE of the Unflattering PERFORMANCE of the SUPER FALCONS at PARIS OLYMPICS! So again! It's very safe to heap the Lackluster PERFORMANCE of the SUPER FALCONS at PARIS OLYMPICS GAMES WOMEN FOOTBALL EVENT; at the Doorsteps of INADEQUATE PREPARATIONS; CAUSED by the External lnvading Self Annointed (non Stakeholding) GUSAU STATE FA CHAIRMEN NFF BOARD! 

3. *FOREIGN* *COACH* *HANDLER* 

Yes! Our Defeated and Deflated Poor Helpless SUPER FALCONS, went to the PARIS OLYMPICS GAMES with One FOREIGN COACH (without Any Coaching TRACK RECORDS) called COACH RANDY WALDRUM! And! This is coming after the Clear MAJORITY of NIGERIA FOOTBALL STAKEHOLDERS and Nigerians, Openly DEMANDED that the Nation DOESN'T NEED A FOREIGN COACH for our NATIONAL FOOTBALL TEAMS! Yes! Ever since the hushed EXIT of the LAST SUPER EAGLES FOREIGN COACH, Jose Peseiro; and before the APPOINTMENT of Rookie lnexperienced COACH FINIDI GEORGE as SUPER EAGLES COACH? Nigerians have Overwhelmingly CLAMOURED for an INDIGENIOUS COACH for the SUPER EAGLES and the SUPER FALCONS! Nigerians WANTED an INDIGENIOUS COACH for the SENIOR NATIONAL FOOTBALL TEAMS; because, we were Disappointed with the PATHETIC PERFORMANCE of our NATIONAL TEAMS, under the WATCH of the FOREIGN COACHES; who despite ALL THE HUGE MONEY expended on them (FOREIGN COACHES); didn't WIN A TEACUP for the Nation! 

But! But quite Most Unfortunately for the Nation! Our "Almighty" Visionless GUSAU (non Shareholding) STATE FA CHAIRMEN NFF BOARD; who are MR. KNOW-ALL? Won't listen to the Reasonable ldeas and Wisdom of Nigerians and the Nation! Despite, All the Obvious Overwhelming Choice of Nigerians for an INDIGENIOUS SUPER EAGLES/SUPER FALCONS COACH? The Grossly Arrogant and Highly Disrespectful Clueless (non Stakeholding) GUSAU STATE FA CHAIRMEN NFF BOARD; still went ahead and UNLEASHED FOREIGN COACH, Randy Waldrum on the SUPER FALCONS; exactly what they are doing with the SUPER EAGLES, on FOREIGN COACH SALARIES KICKBACK RACQUET! 

It's important to Remind here that FOREIGN COACH WALDRUM, was APPOINTED the COACH of the SUPER FALCONS, at the DYING MINUTE, after an INDIGENIOUS COACH called COACH JUSTIN MADUGU; had ALMOST QUALIFIED the SUPER FALCONS to PARIS OLYMPICS! Now! FOREIGN COACH RANDY WALDRUM, has BATTERED the SUPER FALCONS OUT of PARIS OLYMPICS WOMEN FOOTBALL EVENT, and in a MOST DISGRACEFUL FASHION? But! INDIGENOUS COACH JUSTIN MADUGU; was Clearly DOING WELL with his SUPER FALCONS, before the NEMESIS (non Contributing) GUSAU STATE FA CHAIRMEN NFF BOARD; FORCED FOREIGN COACH WALDRUM, on INDIGENOUS COACH MADUGU! So! It's again very safe to hold the DYING MINUTE APPOINTMENT of FOREIGN COACH, WALDRUM as SUPER EAGLES COACH; Responsible for the Uninspiring SHOWING of our Darling SUPER FALCONS at the PARIS OLYMPICS GAMES! Yes! It was the DYING MINUTE APPOINTMENT of FOREIGN COACH WALDRUM, that DISMEMBERED the SUPER FALCONS and CAUSED OLYMPICS BATTERING! 

4. *WHOLESALE* *FOREIGN* *BASED* *PLAYERS* *SQUAD* 

Yes again! Our Bruised and Clipped Poor Helpless SUPER FALCONS, went to the PARIS OLYMPICS GAMES WOMEN FOOTBALL EVENT; with a MAJORITY WHOLESALE FOREIGN BASED PLAYERS! Just Exactly like the Setting of the Floundering and Wingless SUPER EAGLES, under Clueless Journeymen FOREIGN COACHES (Gernot Rohr and Jose Peseiro); who WASTED 8 YEARS of the SUPER EAGLES; WINNING NO TEACUP! And! Just like the Lackluster SUPER EAGLES, populated by WHOLESALE FOREIGN BASED PLAYERS; TUMBLED the Nation; out of 2 BACK TO BACK FIFA SENIOR WORLD CUP CHAMPIONSHIPS? The SUPER FALCONS, Dominated by the SAME WHOLESALE FOREIGN BASED PLAYERS; have EMBARRASSED the Nation with ZERO POINTS in 3 GROUP MATCHES; and an Unscheduled HUSHED EXIT out of the PARIS OLYMPICS! 

But! The Saddest Thing here; is that a Clear MAJORITY of Nigerians; have for long, CLAMOURED for the INCLUSION of a GOOD DOSE of our HOME BASED PLAYERS in both the SUPER EAGLES and the SUPER FALCONS Squads; to bring in NEEDED DEPTH and STABILITY in both SENIOR NATIONAL FOOTBALL TEAMS! Nigerians root for the lNJECTION of the HOME BASED PLAYERS in the SUPER EAGLES and SUPER FALCONS; because we are aware that with the present BUSY INTERNATIONAL FOOTBALL CALENDAR SCHEDULE? The NATIONAL SENIOR FOOTBALL TEAMS; do no longer have ENOUGH TIME to TRAIN TOGETHER and BLEND THEIR GAME!  Nigerians advocate a STANDBY HOME BASED NATIONAL TEAMS for both the SUPER EAGLES and SUPER FALCONS; to COVER UP for the LACK of BLENDING TIME! 

But! Quite Unfortunately again! Our "Almighty" and "All Knowing", Self Appointed (non Representative) GUSAU STATE FA CHAIRMEN NFF BOARD; won't listen to the Brilliant ADVICE of the Nigerian People on the Best Way FORWARD; for their Dear SENIOR NATIONAL FOOTBALL TEAMS! And! Inspite of ALL DEMANDS by Nigerians that the HOME BASED PLAYERS be INCLUDED in our NATIONAL FOOTBALL TEAMS? The Grossly Arrogant and Highly Disrespectful Clueless (non Contributing) GUSAU STATE FA CHAIRMEN NFF BOARD; went ahead and PACKAGED a MAJORITY WHOLESALE FOREIGN BASED PLAYERS  for the SUPER FALCONS to the OLYMPICS! 

The Rest of the Story of the Sojourn of the SUPER FALCONS (with their ARMADA of FOREIGN BASED PLAYERS); to PARIS OLYMPICS GAMES WOMEN FOOTBALL EVENT; is already WELL KNOWN to Everyone! Yes! The FOREIGN BASED dominated SUPER FALCONS; went to the PARIS OLYMPICS; Played 3 MATCHES; Lost ALL 3 MATCHES; Got ZERO POINTS; and Came LAST on the GROUP TABLE of the OLYMPICS! So again! It's very safe to Conclude that the SUPER EAGLES DISASTROUS SHOWING at the OLYMPICS, was CAUSED by the Influx of WHOLESALE FOREIGN BASED PLAYERS in the Squad; which was Engineered by the Visionless (non Stakeholding) GUSAU STATE FA CHAIRMEN NFF BOARD!

 *CONCLUSION* 

FINALLY! The MAIN OBJECTIVE of this Article is to again INFORM and ALERT the Nation that the HIGHLY DISAPPOINTING PERFORMANCE of our aSUPER FALCONS at the PARIS OLYMPICS GAMES WOMEN FOOTBALL EVENT where we CRASHED OUT in the FIRST ROUND! Is Strictly the MAKING and FAULT of the Missionless Self Annointed (non Stakeholding) GUSAU led STATE FA CHAIRMEN NFF BOARD; who REFUSED to APPOINT the COACH of the SUPER FALCONS in GOOD TIME; Bethroted the SUPER FALCONS with LATE INADEQUATE PREPARATIONS of 2 WEEKS and ONE FRIENDLY MATCH! Yes! All the BLAMES should go to the Geeedy and Unpatriotic Self Employed (non Shareholding) GUSAU STATE FA CHAIRMEN NFF who UNLEASHED a Journeyman FOREIGN COACH, WALDRUM on the SUPER FALCONS at the DYING MINUTE; and Ultimately BLUNDERED the SUPER FALCONS, out of the OLYMPICS, with an Obnoxious WHOLESALE FOREIGN BASED PLAYERS SQUAD!

 *SLIDING* *TACKLES* shall also not FAIL to REMIND NIGERIANS that the above 4 BLUNDERS of the Lethargic (non Contributing) GUSAU STATE FA CHAIRMEN NFF, which led to the UNCEREMONIOUS CRASH of our SUPER FALCONS at the PARIS OLYMPICS GAMES? Are just EXACTLY THE SAME AVOIDABLE BLUNDERS, the lnept External lnvading GUSAU STATE FA CHAIRMEN NFF BOARD; committed that TERMINATED the ALL AFRICAN GAMES JAMBOREE of the FLYING EAGLES; TRUNCATED the AFCON U17 and FIFA U17 WORLD CUP ASPIRATIONS of the GOLDEN EAGLETS! Yes! EXACTLY THE SAME AVOIDABLE BLUNDERS of the GUSAU STATE FA CHAIRMEN NFF BOARD, were what DASHED THE WORLD CUP HOPES of the SUPER EAGLES and the Nation!

 Yes! The External lnvading Self Appointed (non Stakeholding) GUSAU STATE FA CHAIRMEN NFF BOARD, have within just a SHORT PERIOD of 2 YEARS in OFFICE? Used EXACTLY THE SAME AVOIDABLE BLUNDERS; to DISCHARGE, ALL OUR NATIONAL FOOTBALL TEAMS from GLOBAL FOOTBALL RECKONING! *SLIDING* *TACKLES* is again of the EMPHATIC OPINION; that WE JUST CAN'T CONTINUE LIKE THIS IN THE NIGERIA FOOTBALL INDUSTRY! It's high time, these Meddlesome lnterloppers who don't REPRESENT ANY FOOTBALL CONSTITUENCY or MAKE ANY FINANCIAL CONTRIBUTION to our NIGERIA FOOTBALL INDUSTRY; led by lbrahim Gusau? Are CHASED AWAY from our Football lndustry, IMMEDIATELY! This is the ONLY WAY for our FOOTBALL INDUSTRY to BREATHE FRESH AIR! And! This Patriotic MISSION is the REASON for this ARTICLE on ................
