MFM home record is not good, two draws. They should play all of their games away.

Somebody should please remind Surugede that we are Rangers and we have never been relegated.

[Enugu II]

I like the results indicating that teams can win away. I hope it continues throughout the season and stops the automatic home wins. Rangers better buckle up especially with the Confed Cup around the corner.

Hahab
Na true that Surugede and his crew ae now "relegated" or suspended ?fter this home loss

True....but let's see how long this will last before the "Nigerian factors" take effect.

Well, while one might say it is still early days and this decision may be hasty, 3 losses and 1 draw out of 5 games is simply not good enough.

When Ogunbote left abruptly to Lobi stars, the youth coach (Surugede) was put in charge and the Management made it clear that it was an interim appointment while they sought a substantive coach. Somewhere along the line, they must have thought they could perhaps save a few bucks by 'managing' Surugede. They stopped the search for a substantive coach and kept him on without formally declaring him permanent coach. Maybe the success in the qualifying stages of the Caf confed cup informed their decision.

All along, it was clear that the Surugede experiment was a huge gamble given his lack of experience and stature at this level. Now that it seems the gamble is not paying off, I hope those in charge will do the right thing by bringing in a coach with the requisite pedigree in the game. Surugede could still be one of the assistant coaches and bide his time. If he has potential, his time will come.

The club has to move very fast as the group stage of the CAF confed cup kicks off on Sunday 1st Dec and this instability/uncertainty will not bode well for them if it lingers.

We are Rangers and we fear no one. Up Rangers

Sylvania Okpala on the way in spite of the club's denial. There is also rumor that Obinna Okafor, a former player, who has reportedly coached in South Africa is being considered.

To our brothers in Enugu I say welcome to Division 2... land of the brave

[Cito]

Heartland please don't do a 3SC. Allow sooting enjoy their zone alone.

[Enugu II]

Now the rumor is that Mbwas Mangut will be named to. replace Surugede. Mangut is currently coaching Delta Force (I believe in relegation zone) as I understand it.
