From the look of things, Shooting Stars are shooting down in their push to rediscover their lost glory. For a club with a rich  history and fans support, things have certainly been far from being rosy for the Oluyole Warriors.

The Ibadan-based side are lurking within the relegation zone, no thanks to their miserly 16 points to stay rooted to the 15th position. This is not the position that they should be by any stretch of the imagination but that is the reality that daily stares  that is the reality that stares Coach Gbenga Ogunbote and his charges in their faces as the league approaches its half-way point.

Can Shooting Stars stop shooting down and return to winning ways when Giwa FC come calling tomorrow in Ibadan? That question will be answered after 90 minutes of football at the Lekan Salami Stadium, with fans hoping to rent the air with shouts of ‘’up Shooting’’.
