3SC players suspend strike

PLAYERS of the Shooting Stars Sports Club of Ibadan yesterday returned to training ahead of tomorrow’s Nigeria Premier League clash against Warri Wolves.

The team staged a three-day strike in protest against unpaid salaries match bonusses and allowances.

However, the team on Friday trained just ahead of the travel to Warri because of what the players, call ‘feeling for teeming fans of the club.

“We are yet to be paid but we are training just to honour well wishers of the team,’ one of the players told Tribunesport.

“The fact that we have made our grievances known, the commissioner had been here and obviously the state governor has known, the rest is up to them. We are going to Warri to get the points at stake and hopefully that result will ginger the authorities to listen to our plight’’

Tribunesport reports that the full complement of the  players and the technical crew attended the session on Friday afternoon.
