Allen is new 3SC coach



Nigeria Premier League (NPL) side, 3SC have appointed Festus Allen (pictured right) as their head coach ahead of the 2011/2012 season.

Allen, who was formerly with Bukola Babes (now ABS FC) before joining COD United, was unveiled on Friday at the Oyo State government in Ibadan.

The former ABS FC coach told Naijaligue.blogspot.com that he is satisfied with the terms of contract handed him by the Oluyole Warriors.

He also disclosed that he has penned a one-year deal with the NPL outfit.

"I'm happy and honoured to be appointed as the coach of a big club like 3SC with so much tradition. I've signed a one-year contract and I am ready to give my best to the club," he told Naijaligue.blogspot.com over telephone from Ibadan.

Allen's appointment as 3SC head coach takes immediate effect.

His appointment ends weeks of speculation in which former Enugu Rangers' coach, Alphonsus Dike was reported to have secured the job.

3SC will kick off their 2011/2012 season by playing host to Sharks on January 8.
