Sports Festus; Olawale Assure Fans Dolphins Will Escape Relegation This Season

Dolphins captain, Festus Austine has blamed his side's 1-0 defeat to Giwa in last Sunday's NPFL game on the referee, saying the they were denied three clear penalties in the game.

The Port Harcourt side are 17th on the log with 35 points after 33 games, but the skipper believed they were a better side but for the centre referee.

Austine also insisted that his side will never be relegated even as the league remains five games to close.
"Yes, we were rubbed of three penalty kicks,"

"We were a better side but the result did not favour us."

We will not be relegated at end of season
"One game after the other we will get there."

Olawale Isiaka, on the other side said that he prefers not to talk about the referee's officiating, adding that he would rather focus on their next game, and also avoid relegation.

"Nothing if I may say."

"We were denied three good penalties in the eighteen yard box but the referee deliberately ignored them to favour the home team."

"I really don't want to talk about it but in all, we had a good game."

"I'm somebody that doesn't complain about referees so please lets forget about that."

"We lost and its gone, we are thinking about the next game."

"I believe so and with the help of God, we will escape relegation because its not over yet."
