These things happen when you fail to register and control your fans ;
Lost of revenues from the gates.
Lost of sponsorship from cooperate world.
Lack of insecurity on the part of fans for fear of being attacked or molested by other fans.
Even television rights may be taking away by the organiser simply because they fear for the safety for the company paying for the broadcast right.
These are few of what MFM are going to go through as they failed to control their fans on NPFL match day 23 .
The league organiser after the incident of match day 23, fined the club two million naira (#2M) and also impose a three match home game behind closed doors on the team for failing to control their fans.
Now imagine a privately owned club losing revenues from a 4,200 seat capacity stadium on these match days
Match day 25 : MFM FC vs Ikorodu United
Match day 27 : MFM FC vs Heartland FC
Match day 29 : MFM FC vs Plateau United
And am sure one of these matches might have been penciled down for TV most especially the Lagos derby match, which means revenue might also be lost .
The team is a young team and needs to get things done in a more professional ways so as to enhance and sustain their participation in the country top league.
