Dolphins failed to travel on time for a CAF Confederation game last weekend in Tunisia as players refused to get on the bus to the airport because they wanted more than they were offered as out of station allowance, or estacode as it is more popularly called in Nigeria
The team subsequently missed its flight to Lagos, then Tunis and were walked over by the time they got to the stadium.
Captain of the side, Sunday Rotimi has in turn apolohised for the role of the players in the saga,
“On behalf of my players, I want to apologise to the club management and also Nigerians concerning the game in Tunis.
“It’s unfortunate that we left Nigeria to Tunis and couldn’t play the game.
“I deeply apologiese to all Nigerians and especially people of Rivers State,” Rotimi said.
Dolphins returned from the Tunisia encounter on Saturday and will play against Abia Warriors in a rescheduled league game on Wednesday in Umuahia,
