NPFL UPDATE: 3SC May Miss Warri Wolves Clash

Published on: 17 September 2016

Shooting Stars coach, Gbenga Ogunbote has said officials are still begging the players, who embarked on a pay strike this week, to agree to travel for today’s NPFL clash at Warri Wolves.

“As I speak to you, the boys have refused to travel for the match. We were meant to travel today, but it seems we can no longer do so. If the issue is not resolved before the end of the day, we will hope to travel first thing tomorrow morning,” disclosed Ogunbote.

The players have boycotted training this week so as to press for the payment of their outstanding salaries as well as to sight the contracts they signed with the club.

They have not been paid five months’ salaries as well as 10 match bonuses so far.

It is believed the management are scrambling for some cash to pay the players.

Shooting Stars are 14th on the table with 44 points.

After the Warri Wolves game this weekend, they have a home game against Wikki before they finish the season away at relegation-threatened Abia Warriors.
