Struggling Marumo Gallants have fired their coach Sebastien Migne, 48, for insurbodination.
Migne found himself in the dog box after he used ‘abusive language’ towards the club’s technical director Harris Chueu in front of players and the technical team at the OR Tambo International Airport in Kempton Park last weekend. They were on their way to play against Lamontville Golden Arrows in Durban.
As a result of that, the Frenchman was hauled before a disciplinary committe, which found him guilty.
“As a coach, his duty is to instil discipline to the team. The club followed correct disciplinary procedure and the decision to release him was made. It’s unfortunate that Sebastien had to be dismissed, especially at a crucial time when we are pushing to remain in the league and advance in CAF,” Gallants chairman Abram Sello said.
Gallants occupy 15th spot on the DStv Premiership standings with two points from five matches.
Meanwhile, Gallants face AS Vita Club from the Democratic Republic of Congo in a CAF Confederation Cup preliminary round in Polokwane on Friday.
