TNM Super League defending champions FCB Nyasa Big Bullets have issued a stern warning to indiscipline players saying the club will crack its whip on them.
This comes after some players were dropped from last week’s TNM Super League match against Blue Eagles on disciplinary grounds.
Bullets Chief Administration Officer Albert Chigoga refused to disclose the identities of the players saying the matter will be dealt with internally.
“At Bullets, discipline of our players takes precedence. Every player at the club subscribes to a code of conduct,” Chigoga said.
Chigoga said the indisciplined players will face unspecified action.

“Our code of conduct is clear on financial and sporting sanctions. Players must meet all the requirements in order for the coach to consider them for selection. Out of 30 players, we travelled with 23 players for various reasons including injuries,” he said.
Bullets have failed to win three consecutive matches in the league having shared the spoils against Mighty Mukuru Wanderers, Red Lions by 1-1 margins before last Sunday’s goal-less draw against Blue Eagles.
They also lost 2-1 at home to Civil Service United in the second leg of the Airtel Top 8 but Bullets progressed to the semi-finals 3-2 on aggregate after winning the first leg 2-0 at Civo Stadium.
This means Bullets are without a win in four consecutive matches in all competitions.

Sports analyst Parry Chinyama said indiscipline has cost a lot of teams points or games which eventually result in losing the championship.
“If not properly managed, Bullets can see the league slip away,” Chinyama said.
Despite the three draws, Bullets are at the summit of the log table with 56 points from 27 matches, two points above Wanderers, who have played 28 matches.
They have remained with games against Dedza Dynamos, Karonga United and Silver Strikers.
