CEOAFRICA sports desk has gathered that October 20, 2013 has been officially approved for the completion of the Nigerian Globacom Premier League.

The League Management Company (LMC) made this known through a statement issued by the Chief Operating Officer, Salihu Abubakar. It states that the changes were necessitated by cases of indiscipline arising from league games.

The statement reads: “In view of the appeals received from some of the clubs on the decisions of the NFF Disciplinary Committee and the need for us to have smooth ending of the season, matches of the Glo Premier League are now to be played as follows – Matches of Week 35 will now be played on Wednesday, October 2, 2013 with Week 36 matches slated to be played on Saturday, October 12. Week 37 matches will hold on Wednesday, October 16, and the season-ending matches of Week 38 will be decided on Sunday, October 20.

“The new schedules took into consideration the Super Eagles World Cup qualifier against Ethiopia, which has been scheduled for October 13 to free the day for Nigerians to focus on the game.”

The two top teams would represent the country at next year’s CAF Champions League, while the third placed team will join Enyimba, who won the Federations Cup as representatives for CAF Confederations Cup.

However Enyimba, who currently top the table, could forfeit the Confederations Cup Ticket to Warri Wolves, who won Silver at the Federations Cup, should the Aba Millionaires grab one of the Champions League slots.
