Molefi Ntseki didn’t cover himself in glory as Kaizer Chiefs manager. However, two managers in the PSL era did even worse.

KAIZER CHIEFS BOSSES WITH THE WORST WIN RATIOS IN THE LEAGUE

Molefi Ntseki won 3/9 league encounters at the helm, a modest win ratio of 33% according to OptaJabu. Kosta Papic and Giovanni Solinas fared even worse with identical win ratios of 29% in DStv Premiership encounters. Surprisingly, the man with the worst record of all is Gavin Hunt who won just 21% of his league matches as Amakhosi boss. One obvious proviso here is that Hunt was in charge for eight months, while Papic was at the club for just three months, Solinas four. Ntseki was at the helm for just 114 days.

NTSEKI SACKED AFTER DISMAL RESULTS

Molefi Ntseki lost four of the last five Chiefs matches he presided over, most recently their Carling Knockout defeat to AmaZulu. New interim boss Cavin Johnson has presided over five matches, all in the league, losing twice and winning against Cape Town Spurs, Swallows and Polokwane. As things stand, he boasts an impressive 60% win ratio.
