The management of Shooting Stars Sports Club of Ibadan, have solicited for the continued support of the teeming supporters and fans of the club as the 2024 season of the NFL continues.
The Honourable Babatunde Olaniyan Akoro led management, while commending the faithful supporters and fans of the club, who have stood solidly behind the team so far, particularly charged them to come out in large numbers to cheer the team up against Akwa United on Sunday.
“We seize this medium to express our appreciation to our supporters and fans, who have stood behind us all this while.
“We salute their patience, perseverance and their courage and we also hail them for the belief they have in the team.
“Come Sunday (today), we shall be playing host to Akwa United in a Matchday 24 encounter. We are looking forward to winning the important maximum points, but we believe strongly in the presence of our backers, hence our call on them to please, turn up in large numbers to, as usual, be our twelfth player.
“At this point, we will also wish to warn trouble makers and miscreants, disguising as fans of the club, to desist from acts, capable of putting the team in trouble.
“The act of using foul languages, throwing missiles and attempts to attack any official or player, before during and after matches, are prohibited because they are against the rules of the NFPL.
“These behaviours will no longer be tolerated before, during and after our home games and anybody found fomenting trouble, risk being arrested and prosecuted.
“At this time, when the team is gradually picking up, striving to get the desired results, we must not give room for any ugly incident that could distract the team, rather, the support should be stronger than before”.
