"The Flying Eagles is a good side and I hope they continue with that form, they are crop of young talents that are just coming up and they exhibited a good side football and with what I saw I believe the team is good to rule Africa again, not just secure qualification for the Africa Youth Championship."

The former Nigeria Football Federation technical committee chairman said he will get the Flying Eagles technical crew informed on where need be to be amend before the Sunday game.

However, the Fiwajoye of Edeland has made a passionate appeal to all soccer-loving Kwara State indigenes to troop out in their mass to give Prime FC full support when they lock horn against defending champions, Heartland FC of Owerri in one of the 2012 Federation Cup semi-finals next Wednesday.

"I am not disappointed about the score-line against Flying Eagles, it's a build-up match towards our crucial semi-final tie against Heartland. But, let us give thanks to God that a young team like Prime is in the semi-finals, you watched the game and you can see it is an upcoming team, they are leaving up to expectation and I am happy that we are in the semi-finals and I will want to say that our chances of playing in the finals is very bright when we meet Heartland."

"We know Heartland is a good side, there is no doubt about that but, that will not give us headache because they have played against Enyimba, Rangers, Wikki and Sharks and that as now given the boys confidence to meet whoever that comes our way, it is going to be a good and I am happy we are going to play in Ilorin."

"I want to say I am more-or-less part of Ilorin, we are playing at home and I am really imploring our good people of Kwara State not only in Ilorin to please come out and support Prime Football Club of Oshogbo, we will not let them down, we will make them proud, this is a young team that is just coming up and they need a lot of encouragement," the former sole administrator of Shooting Stars admitted.
