Madang footballers lack discipline

I AM from Madang and a follower of soccer and would like to comment on the performance of the two teams in the National Soccer League.
Their performance in the current season is a disgrace in the soccer mad province.
Unlike past Madang teams, which have brought pride to the province, the current teams are a joke and a disgrace to Madang soccer.
Of the two teams, Madang Fox has yet to win a game while Besta Fighters won only once, when it defeated Madang Fox.
There is a great probability that both teams will be winless for the remainder of the season with the exception of one of them winning the next game between themselves or both earning a point should they draw.
The problem with them is discipline. There is absolutely no control from the team management over the players’ discipline.
They are notorious for their drinking binge, some of the players drink either 24, 12 or even some hours before and after their games.
The Madang Fox management, which is headed by a lenient coach, rarely imposes any discipline on the players. This is ridiculous and unprofessional.
The NSL management must come down hard on such undisciplined teams.
