Abramovic believes his club does not need to suffer for years before winning which I don’t think is a bad thing. His “no patience” style has won him 5 league titles, 5 FA cup, 1 Champions League, 2 Europa Cups, not to mention 3 charity shields/decorations.
Suffering to get results in football is overrated. Not only that, it is actually unnecessary and breeds weak mentality. Top top clubs world wide do not need to suffer to win trophies. Bayern, Real Madrid, Barca etc will not wait for years so they can build a team.
They are not academies. They are not Ajax. Waiting for decades is not a good attribute to have if you call yourself a big team. You give the United and Ole example. The truth is that the example can only be valid when he WINS.
Also, what stops a manager from winning immediately and also winning later? Win almost all the time is what is making some teams remain at the top almost all the time. Bayern Munich is a big club. A properly run club. Do you know how often they change managers?
Bayern have had 15 managers in the last 15 years or so. Where is the patience there. And if you are looking for properly run clubs, Bayern is right up there. Flick just won a treble. His job is not safe. Zidane’s job is not safe despite winning 3 UCL and 2 Leagues in 5 years.
Abramovic knows what he is doing. He wants trophies. That’s what top people do. I like Lampard. I liked him at Derby. I used him as an example of those that rolled up their sleeves to work starting from the lower leagues. I still wish him well but for now, he deserves the sack.

1. Acceptance they are operating in a regulated segment of the economy. One way or the other, their operations will be subjected to licensing, fees, reviews and general “pokenosing” by the relevant government agency. It will no longer be buy and bike and you are in business.
2. Who should regulate them? The NIPOST act says NIPOST should and the license to be granted by the minister overseeing NIPOST (Section 45). Is this acceptable to operators? I personally do not like it. If they do not accept, they must suggest who is in the best position...
Dear Minister @DrIsaPantami. Section 45 of the Nigeria Postal Services Act states clearly that the power to grant courier license resides with the minister of communications. You owe it to Nigerians to halt this draconian move right now.
Another fact that bothers is the fact that NIPOST is an operator and at the same time a regulator. This is not going to work going forward. Even after this new policy is reversed, we have a big duty on our hands because of this act. Anyone at NIPOST or the ministry can still...
take advantage of this act. The question here is, do we amend the act and take the power to regulate the courier “industry” away from NIPOST? If we do that, where do we take the powers to? If it remains with NIPOST, they remain operators and regulators. Not good.
If you have a vacancy for a secondary school certificate holder and a masters degree holder shows up, do not hire him or her. Hire the secondary school certificate holder. If you hire the masters degree holder, you will both regret it at the end of the day.
Firstly, I think you are just being a bad person taking advantage of people by filling your low paying vacancy with a masters degree holder. Except you increase the pay, you are just a terrible person for trying to pay minimum wage to a masters degree holder.
Secondly, the masters degree holder will only have temporary joy. When he settles into the low paying and low ranking job, dissatisfaction sets in. He would have superiors that are Bsc Holders. He will have school certificate holders as work mates. Maybe some of them...
No one should complain of getting 3rd class. Some of us didn’t even pass JAMB. I was fine with the fact that I sucked at it. We should learn to normalize and teach kids to normalize sucking at certain things, but we have too many woke and fragile people these days.
We have to accept the fact that we can’t excel at everything. You can suck at some things. But these days, you will be told you are hurting people by telling the truth. We want to wrap people in cotton wool. We give certificates of participation to kids that came 8th in a race.
Avoiding telling people the truth that they suck enables entitlement. When reality smacks them right in the face, they get extremely sad and maybe depressed. But if you knew you sucked at something, you wouldn’t be so depressed when reality happens.
Most customers are lazy. Even when they want to buy from you, they end up not buying because they are lazy. Here is something you can do to make them take action.
You see, whenever I make a social media post about my best selling book, Small Business Big Money, the question that gets asked the most is…
Where Can I Buy The Book?
Personally, I feel anyone that asks this question is either not really interested in the book or the person...
is too intellectually and mentally lazy to figure out how he or she can buy the book. I mean, if I’m hearing a lot about a book and I am really interested in buying it, what I will do is simply go to google and type in the title of the book.
