Dolphins FC say they are not guilty of match fixing
The management of Dolphins FC have reacted to the ruling of the NFF disciplinary committee on the match fixing case between Lobi stars and Sunshine stars.
"The case has nothing to do with Dolphins and we do not have a hand in whatever transpired in Bauchi," the statement read.
"We will certainly appeal the decision in due time because we do not accept the ruling in its entirety.
"We are talking reputation here and we will stop at nothing to ensure our dignity and reputation is restored."
Dolphins were fined N10 million and coach Stanley Eguma was handed a 5-year ban over a match fixing case from last season.

NFA,Steven Keshi,Amokachi,you should learn from the just concluded Nations cup,don't rely on your foreign proffesionals in any African cup of Nation,those players plying their trade in Africa are more determined and patriotic than the proffesionals.Take a leaf from Egypt and Zambia,they all have their players playing in the African league.Zambia defeated the so called proffesionals from Europe,eg,Ghana,Senegal,Cote d ivoire, same as Egypt in the last Nations cup.
South Africa is just next year,don't let our proffesionals deceive you with their goals in Europe,Be warned Mr Steven Keshi.

If Keshi should rely on those Europe players deceiving us with their goals in Europe,then he will be sacked soon,African cup of nations is for players playing in the African league,not Europe,take a clue from Zambia and Egypt,they are dominating Africa with their players playing in Africa.If Keshi should rely on Mikel who is a lazy Midfielder like Siasia did against Guinea,then we are out again.
Keshi and Amokachi be wise and rely on players playing in the local league and Afrcan league,not England.
