Daniel ready to kick Crown to safety.
Crown FC top striker Bode Daniel has said he is quite happy with Wednesday's resumption of the suspended 2013/14 Glo Premier League season.
The league body, League Management Company (LMC), announced recently that the elite league will resume on Wednesday, September 17 with match day 26 ties after the Nigeria (Football) Referees Association (NRA) decided to return their services to the league.
The Ogbomoso-based side will host Nasarawa United in Wednesday's day 26 clash at the Lekan Salami Stadium in Ibadan.
Daniel said his side cannot wait for Wednesday to come for them to restart in earnest their campaign to wriggle out from the relegation zone.
"We were happy the very moment the LMC announced the league will restart on Wednesday.
"The announcement brings huge relief to our camp as we're all eager to head back to the pitch to fight for our survival.
"So we're well focused on Wednesday's game against Nasarawa United, we've patiently waited for the clash and right now there appears no hiding place for us but to go all out to grab our three points.
"We're precariously placed on the league table, we're not comfortable at all so we need the three points badly to ignite the fight to come out from the danger zone.
"We're worried with our position on the log given the quality of players in our fold and the excellent way we started the league before things went wrong," said Daniel to supersport.com.
Daniel restated his side's vow to escape relegation at the end of the ongoing league season.
"By the special grace of God we're going to survive relegation, Crown FC won't go down to the lower division after a season in the elite league.
"Personally, I won't want to see myself in the lower division again. The same thing goes for my teammates and we're determined to spill blood to ensure Crown FC keep its status quo in the Premier League.
"We've tasted action in both leagues and we've agreed the place for us is where we're at the moment," said the Crown FC hitman.
The Glo Premier League newcomers are 19th on the 20-team elite league log on 27 points from a possible 75 at the conclusion of match day 25.
