The outcome of Martizburg United's meeting with coach Eric Tinkler has been revealed.
Tinkler has struggled to get Maritzburg United firing so far since the start of the 2020/21 season having lost all four league matches to date.
Chairman Farook Kadodia had earlier confirmed to the Siya crew that they have held several meetings with the coach and are having another one today (Monday) to map the way forward!
— Maritzburg United FC (@MaritzburgUtd) November 23, 2020"We should be able to communicate the outcome of the meeting in the next few hours because we are meeting with the coach right now and discussing the future," he said at the time.
The club has since released a statement confirming the sacking of Tinkler.
"It has been an extremely disappointing start to the season and the results have not been forthcoming," Kadodia said in a statement.
"The Board therefore took the decision to terminate the contract of the coach. We would like to wish him all the best in his future endeavours."
Maritzburg were also booted out of the MTN8 quarterfinals by Kaizer Chiefs earlier last month and have not won a match since March.
In total, Tinkler has gone 11 matches without a win at the Midlands club and it is expected the club statement will announce he is being relieved of his duties!
His replacement has not yet been announced.
