History |
| |
|
Colors: Red top
United, fondly referred to as the “Elite Team”, was established in 2003 as the league’s first expansion team. “Sir” Victor Mbanefo (left) owns the team which has improved from the league’s doormat to the top of the league table in 2005. Mr. Jude Iweanoge is the team's Manager. |
|
|
Accomplishments |
| |
|
| United won the Nwafor Challenge Cup and topped the league table in 2005. United is, perhaps, the league’s most exciting team to watch. |
|
|
Key Players |
| |
|
| Abdul Bangura is the team’s midfield soul along with Romeo and Clarke. Seyi Rotimi and Chris Nweze provide the muscle at the rear to support. |
|
|
2007 Outlook |
| |
|
| This team has so much potential but has the tendency to implode when least expected. United’s character makes it difficult to predict its performance but it certainly has a good chance to challenge for the Cup. | |
