Head coach of Real Tamale United, Shaibu Ibrahim Tanko admits RTU fans will have to believe and have patients
before things get good again.But he has promised to deliver a “respectable position” before the end of the season.
Three games in a row without a win is dismal stuff by RTU’s high standards and three
defeats in a row have underlined how much work the Director of Sports at the University for Development Studies believes needs to be
done.
Off the Road, as he is popularly called, is deeply concerned at the current team’s lack of bottle. On
Sunday in the City Derby match, he could be seen urging his players to take the fight to rival Tamale City
during a second-half capitulation.
The former Hearts of Oak and Medeama Sc gaffer
said: “I’ve never worked so hard as I’m doing now. I,m doing all I can and you can see it for yourself that we play beautiful football but we lack clinical finishers”
“I had different situations at the other clubs but here I work hard every day.
It’s not easy but it’s a task and it takes time.
“I’m not trying to protect myself behind the style and the project of RTU and say
that I don’t care about the results. I’m not trying to hide. But the reality
is we want to play a certain style but we lack certain ingredients in the team and that’s the striking department.
Real Tamale United will resume training on Tuesday towards the resumption of Tue league as all Sporting Activities has been postponed due to the deadly Corona virus which has hit the world causing the cancellations of major Sporting events across the world.
