We have not been making full use of the home comfort and we only realize how important it is to win home matches at the end of the season. The difference between us and the league champion has always been a margin of not more than ten points and if we can make Mbaraki a fortress going forward, then we stand a chance of winning the league title,” he said.##NAJAVA_MECA_6465697##Siraj who joined Bandari in 2019 from FC Talanta while underscoring the significance of fans littering the Mbaraki stands further appealed for more support in the subsequent season.“Sometimes we play our home matches with minimal support from the fans which eats into the advantage that we should otherwise been enjoying. I urge our fans to double their attendance and energy even as we try our best on the pitch to deliver,” added the former Shabana man.
