Brandon Truter Wary Of the Curse of the Coach!
Swallows FC take on Maritzburg United this evening at the Dobsonville Stadium. Truter is currently the October/November coach of the month.
Brandon Truter Wary Of the Curse of the Coach! He says that he is wary of coaches who often suffer a dip in form after receiving this recognition.
“I got reminded of the curse of the coach of the month shortly after I received the award. My phone has not stopped ringing as people are telling me to be careful about experiencing a free-fall after winning this award,” Truter told SuperSport TV.
“But I keep on telling them that I have a plan and would not suffer a similar fate.”
“We spoke at length with the boys and agreed that all eyes would be on us from now on. We are mentally strong, and I want to break the curse and go on to win another one and become a hard-to-beat coach. .
“The next game is the most important, and we have to keep our feet on the ground and avoid getting carried away,” he concluded.
Maritzburg United have had a terrible start to the new season. They claimed their first point of the season in a 1-1 draw with Mamelodi Sundowns recently.
Eric Tinkler has been replaced with Ernst Middendorp who is tasked with keeping the KZN outfit in the DSTV Premiership.
“It’s a long process. I said it already; this project won’t end in December or January … to get in a safe area it’ll take time. We must sort it out so that we’ll be in the PSL come May 2021” Middendorp said.
“It’s challenging. It’s definitely something that I like. It’s possible to save the team from relegation.” He concluded.
