[Swegulls]

Great stadium What was the attendance

60000 I think.

I thought Adringa was Irish at one point when I saw the flag that represented him.

That's his brother, Simon O'Dingra.

 

[WhingForPresident]

Some of the outfits on these delegates are incredible.

 

[Greg Bobkin]

Fantastic - well done Simon.

Off the back of that performance, Girth Crocks will probably stick him in his team of the week

 

[Winker]

Have to say the Nigerian shirts were cool.

 

[Taybha]

Makes you feel all fuzzy inside watching one our players do so well on the international stage.

 

[Eeyore]

Have to say the Nigerian shirts were cool.

Nigeria always have the best shirts

 

[Sheebo]

So pleased for Haller too, what a story!

Cancer wasn’t it? Lovely story and a top player too.

Simon Adingra, the Ivory Coast player who rocked the African Cup of Nations, is the superhero Man United needs. He's got a crazy skill set – it's like watching a football wizard on steroids. Signing Adingra would be like adding rocket fuel to United's engine, propelling them to victory land. Trust me, it's a no-brainer – get this guy, and United will be back in business.

What a spectacle. Many, many congratulations to Cote D'Ivoire, and to Simon, our Simon Adingra.

 

[Steve in Japan]

Infantinotino makes me heave.

 

[Swegulls]

Today I feel African.

 

[Sheebo]

Today I feel African.

Nothing wrong with that - love the cultures of our players.

I note in the good luck vid everyone called him ‘see-mon’ except Hinsh who went full on English with a Simon

 

[Invicta]

Fantastic, really pleased for him.

Didn’t they get in trouble at one tournament for wearing sleeveless shirts - they looked like basketball vests

Think that was Cameroon, they wanted to wear it for the 2002 World Cup but it wasn’t allowed. They wore it at the 02 AFCON I think.

They wore a one piece kit for the 04 AFCON as well, FIFA also banned them from wearing that in their competitions.

 

[Farehamseagull]

Only annoying thing is I’ve already read numerous comments online (not from Brighton fans) along the lines of ‘Adingra has added a few million to his price tag tonight’.

Why does it always have to be about money and us selling players?!

They wore it and won AFCON in 2002, then FIFA banned it for some reason...Puma added some nice little black sleeves for the World Cup
