     Supporters and Loyalists of NPFL side,Sunshine Stars of Akure have  expressed honest displeasure over the poor season performance of their  darling club in the just concluded 2012/2013 Glo premier league season.

     Sunshine Stars finished in 12th position with 52pts on the log, 2pts  above the relegation drop zone.

     A cross section of the fans who spoke to journalists have described the  final position of Sunshine stars on the league log as "unacceptable"  stating that it was the desire of football lovers in Ondo state to see  the Akure Gunners return back to the continental scene


     An angry fan,Olawale Moshood said it was a disappointing season for  Sunshine despite the strong support given to the club by Ondo state  government

     "Things have gone from good to bad for the club,Can you imagine a team  that finished second in the 2010/2011 season,Semi-finalists in both  CAF Confederation&Champions legue so unfortunate they(Sunshine) could  not be among top contenders for the league diadem"

     Another supporter,Smart Ayoade highlighted the poor choice of coaches  and some technical crew members as a major reason for the team absymal  season performance

     "The management failed to appoint a good&technically sound coach from  the start of the season,after Gbenga Ogunbote's departure I felt a top  notch coach would be named to replace him instead a rookie coach with  no premier league experience was appointed(Samuel Abimbola)

     "Coach Abimbola was sacked again another coach who has lost touch was  given the job,Fatai Amoo only managed to get just one point out of 17  away matches"

     "Both coaches failed woefully to add quality to the team"   "I can't really figure out why the former team manager was relieved  from his post,Mr.Aborowa did a fantastic job during his time what he
     achieved was evident to all"guiding Sunshine Stars to semi final placing back to back on the continent.

     "Rasheed hasn't proven to be a good team manager,a team manager who  influences team selection,accuses senior players of selling match  points is that a team manager?"

     Aspino Reality a football supporter also pinpointed the signing of  average players as another problem Sunshine Stars faced during the  season as statistics shows that Emmanuel Olowo and Jude Ebitogwa were  the only players that made the cut for matches during the second
     round.

     "Most of the players signed were average and low quality  players,players are not properly screened as some group of people just  smuggle their preferred players at will without due process"

     He lamented that some players brought into the team were rather worse  than the players on ground.

     Meanwhile,a large portion of the club followers has called for the  total overhaul of Sunshine Stars technical crew ahead of the new  season as not even the insinuation that Henry Abiodun will take over from Amaoo could calm their friengh nerves.

     "We want to charge the management to replace the technical crew with  more capable and seasoned personnels who would bring in fresh ideas  and changes to tinker Sunshine stars to winning ways"
