And this has certainly put Gavin Hunt under immense pressure, especially given Chippa Mpengesi’s lack of patience when it comes to underperforming coaches.

Since Hunt arrived at the start of the season, Chippa United have won just once in nine games, and the win came in his first game in charge against Sekhukhune United.

The win was followed by a goalless draw against Mamelodi Sundowns – and in total Chippa United have lost five matches and drawn the other three.

And this is a cause for concern, and Hunt could find himself without a job if Chippa United don’t start winning their games.
