Oluwatobi advised that the players needed more time to rest to work on their lapses before their next game.

He added that he needed to strengthen his team by working harder and recruiting more players.

He said, "I want the organizers to improve on fixtures congestion. We didn’t play the normal game we ought to play. I will advise that the next season should be a home-and-away format whereby the girls would have enough time to rest and correct all their mistakes. It is not encouraging to be playing almost every day.

“I feel so glad to gain promotion with the team. I already saw it coming despite it being difficult. We thank God that making it possible for us. The Sunshine Queens game boosted us to score more goals because we knew that we are on the same point knowing well that if they can win 3-1, we can also win 4-1. We have a lot of talents and very young girls. They are going far.

"Regarding the Premiership, we need more to work on and to get more players to strengthen the team. We have good support from Honourable Kunle Soname. It is going to be easier for us to get a formidable team."

Meanwhile, Moje Queens and Delta Babes were relegated to the third tier League, the Nation Wide League.
