Rhulani Mokwena will astonishingly become the 21st coach, on a full-time and interim basis, to take over the reins at Chippa United.
The 34-year-old coach has a mountain to climb in his first head coaching job especially having to rescue the Chilli Boys out of the relegation quagmire as they are 11th on the log standings with 25 points, five clear of basement dwellers AmaZulu.
Below, we look at what Mokwena’s predecessors, Larsen, Francis and Mapeza, had offered to the Chilli Boys before their abrupt departure.After managing three draws and two losses in the first five matches this season, Larsen joined the string of coaches to be sent packing by Mpengesi in his illustrious career as the Chilli Boys’ chairman.
The 42-year-old was no stranger to the Chilli Boys’ set-up having served as an assistant coach during the 2010/2011 season. However, his first senior team coaching gig didn’t yield the expected fruits, drawing his first match against Bloemfontein Celtic before losing to Maritzburg United.
