For long spells now, Express Football Club has been dogged by administrative hitches which have spilled down to the team proper, thus affecting the day-to-day operations of the club including performances of the Red Eagles.
This season, the club’s inconsistent displays have left them a mid-table entity with just 16 points, 20 adrift from the leaders Vipers at the half-way mark of the season.
