LMC Reschedules Dolphins, Pillars League Matches
The League Management
Company (LMC) on Wednesday announced some slight amendments to the 2014/15 schedule of the Glo Premier League regarding a few Week 2 and Week 3 matches.
In a message sent to clubs, the LMC indicated that the Match Day 2 fixture between Abia Warriors and Dolphins would now be played on a date to be announced later.
Dolphins FC were expected to be away, in a rescheduled tie, to Abia Warriors yesterday due to the continental engagement in Tunisia against Club Africain.
But they have been directed to remain in Tunis by the Confederation of African Football (CAF) pending a decision on their protest against their walk-over last weekend.
This development has also affected the Match Day 3 fixture between Dolphins and Warri Wolves, which have also been put on hold.
This will be until when there is clarity in the continental fixtures of the Port Harcourt team.
Similarly, the Match Day 3 fixture between Shooting Stars and Kano Pillars have also been shelved.
The league defending champions, Kano Pillars, have been directed by CAF to play their rescheduled CAF Champions League tie against their Moroccan opponents tomorrow.
Meanwhile, Sharks FC will now host Akwa United at the Liberation Stadium in Port Harcourt as scheduled on Sunday, just as all other fixtures will hold on Sunday as originally scheduled.
