Hearts Fans Chase Coach From Training Ground

Hearts of Oak coach Nebojsa Vucicevic was prevented from training with the squad on Friday morning by angry fans. Some irate supporters besieged the team�s ATTC training Park in Accra and physically stopped him from performing his duties. Their action is in protest of the club�s recent 1-0 defeat at AshantiGold which has thrown their title challenge in doubt. The club�s supporters� body, National Chapters Committee, sent an official correspondence to the management on Wednesday demanding Vucicevic�s immediate dismissal. They have expressed dissatisfaction with the Serbian�s tactics and player selection. The latest development could be the last straw for Vucicevic who could be sacrificed to appease the angry supporters. Hearts trail leaders and rivals Asante Kotoko by seven points with 12 matches remaining in the Ghana top flight. Management is yet to decide on the demands from the supporters as the coach�s dismissal might come with a huge severance package. Below is the full statement. SUPPORTER AGITATION FOR A CHANGE IN THE TECHNICAL DIRECTION OF HEARTS OF OAK The National Chapter Committee (NCC) presents its compliments. As representatives of our esteemed supporters we have always had to restrain our supporters who seem to have lost confidence in our technical team especially the head coach, for the manner he handled the team in the first round. We believe that with the recruitment of thirteen (13) highly acclaimed players in the second window, our head coach is not capable of blending the old and new players. We therefore wish to suggest a change in the Technical direction of the club. Yours in the service of Hearts of Oak (Signed) AL.
