But in apparent reaction to Sharks fans position Vice Chairman of Dolphins Supporters Club, Prince Prezi Difa said that Dolphin would not compromise at all in the game, He said the Sharks would have to look elsewhere for salvation and stop hoping on Dolphins.
“Every time Sharks are in trouble, they want us to help, but the truth is that we did not put them in the  situation they are in an should not expect us to get them out of it”, he said.
That Dolphins collapsed 3-0 away to Sunshine Stars and need to bounce back is a pointer that it is going to be an all out battle and survival of the fittest between the sister clubs, today.
