Highlanders coach Try Ncube faces the axe as his team stumbles through their worst goal drought of the season. The Bulawayo giants have failed to find the net for three straight matches and fans are losing patience fast. Ncube desperately begs supporters to pack Barbourfields Stadium when GreenFuel visits on Sunday. The interim boss knows his job hangs by a thread after failing to deliver wins or goals since taking charge. His team sits ninth on the league table with just 24 points from their campaign.
GreenFuel arrives in Bulawayo sitting four points behind Highlanders in 13th place on the standings. Both coaches feel the heat as their clubs struggle near the bottom half of the table. The visitors will smell blood if Highlanders continue misfiring in front of goal during the weekend clash. Club bosses scramble to sign new strikers and midfielders before the transfer window slams shut. Acting CEO Kindman Ndlovu admits the team needs fresh faces to climb up the league table.
Highlanders supporters remember better days when their club ruled Zimbabwean football with an iron fist. The team last won the championship back in 2006 and fans grow restless watching rivals collect trophies. Star players have jumped ship leaving behind a weakened squad that struggles to create chances. Sunday represents a make or break moment for Ncube as pressure mounts from the boardroom and terraces alike.
