MUNJEN DUO AT ORCHARD TO PROMOTE RESPECT

Munjen winger Firdaus and striker Haris were recently in town to promote the new initiative by the FA calling for Respect to the Referees.

In a short half hour public conference session, both players stressed the importance of showing respect not only for match officials but also the opposition.

In a written statement read out by Firdaus on behalf of Munjen Portugal FC, the first club outside the FA to follow suit on the initiative, read;

"R-E-S-P-E-C-T. A seven-letter word that has all but gone out the window in recent times. Football now is no more about enjoying one's game and leaving the pitch in good harmony with new-formed acquaintances.

"As a result, we often see on pitch quarrels breaking out between players and match officials. Before the situation escalate, Munjen Portugal would like to reiterate that we do not condone ill-mannered behaviour on or off the pitch.

"Therefore, we will constantly keep our heads in check and show respect not only for match officials but also our opponents, the football community and most importantly, the fans who traveled with their teams and paid good money to watch good football."

This was followed by a short video presentation to mark the end of the conference titled "Respect to Referees" starring familiar football faces like Les Ferdinand, Howard Webb and Fabio Capello.
