Plateau United Football Club of Jos, has pledged to work closely with the Plateau Football Association (PFA) Normalisation Committee, set up by the Nigerian Football Federation (NFF).
The Club General Manager, Hosea Mutla, made the promise when he led management of the club on a courtesy visit to the Normalisation Committee Chairman, Yakal Buba, on Wednesday in Jos.
Mutla said that the leadership of the 2017 Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL), champions’ visit was to congratulate the committee on the assignment.
“Since the PFA is the owner of football on the Plateau, we are here to congratulate you and to let you know that we will work with you.
“We are also here to officially notify you that our 2023/2024 NPFL Season, will kick off on Saturday in Ibadan, with our first match against Shooting Stars Sports Club.
“I am certain Plateau United will enjoy massive support from the FA, and we want to inform you about the turnaround at the Zaria Road Stadium as the team prepares for the upcoming season.”
The general manager called on the PFA to work with the club in the area of ticketing to avoid the experience during the last season.
He assured the committee that the club would do its best to ensure that the team and its supporters conducted their activities according to the laid down rules.
