CITY PART WAYS WITH TINKLER AMID DISMAL SEASON
Cape Town – Cape Town City has parted ways with head coach Eric Tinkler, the club announced in a statement yesterday. The decision comes after a dismal start to the season, which has seen the team struggle to find consistency.
Under Tinkler’s guidance, City managed only three wins, two draws, and five losses in their opening 10 games. The team currently sits in 12th place on the Betway Premiership log, with a mere 11 points.
The statement from the club indicated that the decision to part ways was mutually agreed upon by both parties. While the exact reasons for Tinkler’s departure were not disclosed, the team’s poor performance this season is likely to have played a significant role.
Tinkler, a seasoned coach with extensive experience in South African football, took the reins at City with high expectations. However, the team’s inability to replicate their past successes has ultimately led to his departure.
The club has yet to announce a replacement for Tinkler, but speculation is rife about potential candidates. City will be looking to turn their season around, and the appointment of a new coach will be crucial in achieving this goal.
In the meantime, the team’s assistant coaches will take charge of the squad as they prepare for their next fixture. City’s fans will be hoping for a swift turnaround in fortunes, but for now, the focus is on finding the right man to lead the team back to success.
