Before the 2008-09 season there was a brief power struggle for the chairman position that saw Shehu Gusau sacked and then retained and even arrested. They retained their place in the top league by two goals on the final day of the season thanks to an unbelievable 9-0 victory over Kaduna United FC. They were relegated to the National Second Division in 2011 after a five-year stay in the Premier League.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“Properly speaking, history is nothing but the crimes and misfortunes of the human race.”
—Pierre Bayle (1647–1706)
“In nature, all is useful, all is beautiful. It is therefore beautiful, because it is alive, moving, reproductive; it is therefore useful, because it is symmetrical and fair. Beauty will not come at the call of a legislature, nor will it repeat in England or America its history in Greece. It will come, as always, unannounced, and spring up between the feet of brave and earnest men.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Every library should try to be complete on something, if it were only the history of pinheads.”
—Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. (1809–1894)
