The coach in his usual characteristic, did not mince words: "They are kill joy; these referees. They would brinjg this globally accepted beautiful game to shame and disrepute in Nigeria, if something drastic is not done now. Things are getting worse by the season with the game in this part of the world whereas, the reverse is the case elsewhere. "From where on earth did the penalty the centre referee awarded our opponents in that fate match come? What was wrong with our equalizer against NPA? There are many more questions than answers in our football play and administration...and under such a situation, things can hardly go right. These and many more abnormalies, underscore the prernial hiccups we experience in the game in the country. It's a shame ...a big shame," he cried. 1
