Coach Gbenga Ogunbote has tendered an apology to Shooting Stars fans, after failing to guide the team to the title play-off.
The manager stated that the Oluyole Warriors paid the price for underperforming during the first stanza of the campaign.
“The first thing is to apologize to the supporters because much was expected from us.
“We seem to have it, but unfortunately, when the season started, we couldn’t replicate what we had in the pre-season, due to some challenges in the form of distractions, which did not allow the team to perform the way we expected.
“On behalf of the team, I want to apologize for that and I want to thank the Almighty God, that despite the fact that we were unable to realize our dreams, we were not struggling, four games to the end of the season, we had already avoided the drop, which was a plus for the team. It can always get better”.
Shooting ended their league campaign with a home draw against record Champions Enyimba of Aba.
“I want to enjoin the fans to still have confidence in the team, God on our side, next season will be better,” stated the ex-Remo Stars’ chief tactician.
