Ogunmodede: I'm Responsible For Remo Stars' Title Miss

Remo Stars head coach Daniel Ogunmodede was disappointed to see the club missed out on the title for the second consecutive season.

The Ikenne club came close to winning the Nigeria Premier Football League title in the 2022/23 season but lost out to Enyimba.

The Sky Blue Stars fell short once again in the just concluded campaign finishing second behind Rangers.

Ogunmodede accepted responsibility for Remo Stars’ failure to win the title.

“For my personal target, I term it as a failure for me because the target from the beginning of the season was clear—it was to be one step ahead of what we were last season. We were second last season, and we wanted to be first this season, but unfortunately, we slipped and finished second,” Ogunmodede said via the club’s X account.

“Last season (2022/23) was an abridged league, and this (2023/24) was a marathon, so it’s different lessons from different formats. We just need to accept our fate. I accept responsibility as the coach, and that is why I congratulated the players.

“We want to be better, always; that’s what we want to do.”
