Sporting Lagos has just succeeded in destroying their Club. I don delete my membership, migrating to Remo Star and still proudly Bendel.
@Chima E Samuels, Paul has been acting in an unofficial capacity for over a year and been behind the scenes. They are just making it official now
Yes no wonder they’re not improving. I will rather move onto Remo than start break my heart supporting a team that has Aigbogun as technical director. God forbid!!!
