Nigerian clubs suspended after 'scandalous' scorelines

[bigdavecox90]

At least they kept the scores quite low so it didn't look like match fixing....

This is piss funny. Most match fixing comes in the form of someone smashing the ball out for a throw-in in the 55th minute, or there being eight corners in the game...it would be very strange if a score was fixed that was agreed by both teams and for score lines like this to occur is just pure insaneness. Who the hell was behind this, they really must be stupid, and the players must be even m ore stupid to go along with it.

Not 1-0, 2-1 maybe even 4-1...

79-0

It's ok everyone, the Nigerian ambassador of the soccer league confirms both games were genuine, he has also emailed me to advise that he has 5.5 million under his bed and would like somewhere to store it , he told me if I give him my bank details he can transfer the money and I can have 2.25 million. What a top bloke.

It tickles me that it was 'only' 7-0 and 6-0 at half time and most of the goals were scored in the 2nd half. Assuming that they played 45 min in the 2nd half they were scoring one a half goals per minute (okay you can't score half a goal so 3 goals every 2 minutes).

However, if the referee is adding half a minute on for each 'celebration', (remember the controversy in the derby) then each game would have had over half an hour of Fergie time, the 79-0 game with 72 goals in 2nd half would have had a goal every 1 min 7 sec.

(Yes I'm a saddo).

sounds well iffy, how much injury time was played?

at 30s per goal it would be about 38 minutes!

Imagine that conversation; "right lads, listen up, there's some money in this for you if you do this for us, 10000naira each...all you have to do is concede 71 goals in the second half, we've spoken to the other team and they're well up for it...nobody will ever know!"

Having worked in Nigeria, I would say the biggest mistake Plateau made isn't the obvious scoreline, rather fixing a match in which the Police would come out worse.

The next headline will be something along the lines of

"Entire football team, staff and referee go missing. Islamic militants suspected.

Police Machine FC demolished Bubayaro FC 67-0.
