Highlanders coach Mandla Mpofu has threatened to bar some members of the media from attending the team’s weekly press conferences as pressure continues to mount on him following his poor start to the season.
The former Warriors assistant coach has come under intense scrutiny from both fans and the media, with supporters demanding his dismissal.
They blame him for the team’s horror start to the current Castle Lager Soccer League campaign.
Bosso have picked just three wins from 14 matches this season and their tally of 16 points leaves them just two points above the relegation zone.
More importantly Highlanders are already 14 points behind their arch rivals and log leaders Dynamos, who they face at Barbourfields stadium on Sunday.
Diverting attention from the mounting pressure ahead of Sunday’s match, Mpofu decided to take on some members of the Press corps who attended the team’s weekly Press conference.
The Bosso coach lost his cool when asked when he will stop coming up with excuses and deliver results on the field of play. He threatened to speak to the club’s chief executive officer (CEO) Ronald Moyo to bar certain journalists from attending the weekly press conferences.
