Kananji (in caps), says he is not giving up.

“We have lost two consecutive games and the fans were just expressing their disappointment out of frustration, but I would like them to calm down as we try to get back to winning ways,” said Kananji.

Kananji added that losing is part of the game and he understands why the supporters were chanting that he should be sacked.

“It is part of the game. I heard those chants, as a coach you expect such situations to happen, especially when you are in charge of a big team like Wanderers,” he said.

The Nomads players and technical were forced to track back to their club house by foot after the supporters were frustrated by the nomads poor run of form which has forced them to loss to Civo stadium and Kamuzu Barracks both by 1 nil at Kamuzu Stadium, a week before last week and last week respectively.

The Nomads next game will be against Red Lions at Kamuzu Stadium on Saturday 26th September, 2015.

  1. We’re the Champions of Carlsberg cup 2015. Don’t be panic. Football is ups & downs, we’ll be back to winning ways, count my words!!

  2. if can u see the style of play they have adopted now is really slow. we can’t compare it with that of the Sherie Msuku era. If you analysed the game we beat Dedza at KAMUZU soccer arena you could see that these young players created alot of chances, they played well in all departments than ours who played very slow. Also they don’t become aggressive after conceding a goal as is the case with other teams like Bullets. Therefore, the coach shld just change the style and approach of the game.
