heres the letter that the nigerian fa sent to ours after moyes comment....

In a letter to The FA, the Nigerians have said :
“The purpose of this letter is to lay complaint against the Manager of English Premiership club, Everton FC, Mr David Moyes who was widely quoted by the world media on Thursday 21st February 2008 as suggesting that his Nigerian striker Yakubu Aiyegbeni is above the age he presents.
“On a night that Aiyegbeni scored a hat-trick to become the first Everton player to score a hat-trick in Europe in 23 years, Mr. Moyes said, inter alia: “What people don’t appreciate is that he’s only 25, albeit a Nigerian 25, and so if that is his age he’s still got a good few years ahead of him.
“This statement is an unambiguous insult on a whole nation, and the biggest black nation in the world for that matter, and we demand an unreserved apology from the said Mr. Moyes.
“Mr. Moyes’ statement is capable of not only exposing our player, Yakubu Aiyegbeni to ridicule but also capable of reducing his market value as a professional footballer and at the same time, capable of undermining the bargaining power of other Nigerian professional players.
“We demand also that Mr. Moyes must be expressly cautioned for insinuating that a civilized nation encourages age cheating, and he should find a way to return to the world media and decry his own statement.”

The letter was signed by Secretary General, Bolaji Ojo-Oba.

I too thought he looked in good shape, lost a few pounds. Good job cos if he had moobs they would look [Poor language removed] in that new Home shirt :(
 
Never really thought of Yak as a hard man, to be honest. He seems relatively gentle by footballing standards. In saying that, he'd fcuking batter Joey Barton. FACT.

Those are the dangerous ones, the gentle giants. Piss em off enough and they'll flip, Hulk style, or like that guy in The Green Mile!!
 
he looks very lean, gonna be like that bolt fella this season, someones been neglecting sayers !!

This was what I was worried about, because he was injured for so long I thought he was gonna come back a pyarrrrrr beefcake but he looked 'Yak' trim, which is good. Thought it was gonna be FEED THE YAK AND HE WILL EAT!

It's weird coz we did so well without him last season, but I can't wait to have him back because there was certain games where you could imagine a Yak tap-in or whatever which would have turned one point into three etc.
