      ​@dansmith1763 - Betting pools in Nigeria in the 70s - early 90s. The betting pools were linked to both English and Scottish football leagues. It was a dead cert that Dundee United would lose when the results were read out on both the radio and TV. When you lose or are poor in school, you're then called Dundee. It then graduated to when you're being stupid to get called Dundee United.

    #Clubfocus
    Dundee United, a Scottish football club, is a slang for idiots in Nigeria because the Scottish club went on a pre season tour in Nigeria and performed badly.
    It was a two-week period, between the end of May and the start of June, 1972
    Nigeria had never qualified for the FIFA World Cup or AFCON at that time. The Nigerian Football League had just been formed.
    A Dundee Player, Kenny Cameron said hyenas and vultures were part of the committee that welcomed them at the Kano airport. He also complained about stomach bugs in the squad, traffic jams and post office strikes.
    This angered the Nigerian media and fans. The media responded by saying Dundee United played amateur football.
    On the pitch, they were matched against small teams where they were underwhelming, drawing 2-2 with Stationery Stores on 27 May 1972 followed by a 1-0 win against Benin Vipers on the 31st. That, however, was to mark the high point of the visit - United lost 2-0 to Enugu Rangers on 3 June, in a match played in front of 35,000 people, before drawing 1-1 with Mighty Jets on 7 June, and then ending the whole sorry affair with a 4-1 hammering at the hands of Stationery Stores.
    Who laughed last?

    I spent some happy years in Botswana when I was a kid and we had these massive millipedes called chongalooloos, (probably wrong spelling.) The big black ones that rolled up in a circle like a liquorice Catherine wheel.
    Years later I found out in some African countries Chongalooloo was a slang term for better off African kids that travelled abroad, went on expensive school trips and generally thought they were a bit "better" than the rest. They were chongalooloos 😂 I have no idea how such kids became related to centipedes though.
    Edit- just looked it up. Apparently it grew out of Chongololo clubs set up in the 70s to promote conservation. As trips were an integral part of these clubs only schools that could afford them and had their own buses, so Church schools, elite government schools and private schools. There were TV and radio shows and presenters had a specific accent so it became associated with posher kids and kids that were particularly enamoured of western culture. Fascinating how slang grows up.

    I was born in England to Bangladeshi parents, was in and out of trouble and being arrested 4 times by my 13th birthday, my parent sent me to Bangladesh for 3 years!
    This was in the mid 90s, seeing the struggles and poverty really open my eyes as to how fortunate I am. Came back in 99 at 16 and started working straight away. Bought my first house 2 years later and another 5 over the next 10 years.
    Looking back, I thought I hated every minute of it but it was actually the best time of my life! May not have thought me education but thought me values..
