REVEALED | Morgan Mammila's resignation letter to Chippa United

Controversial football administrator Morgan Mammila has shared details of his resignation letter to KickOff to prove that he in fact resigned as interim coach instead of being sacked by the trigger-happy Chippa United.

Club owner Chippa Mpengesi has a reputation as an impatient boss with an incredible 36 managers appointed in the club's short history since being founded in 2010.

KickOff revealed that Mammila had been relieved of his first-team duties after a barren run of results with the club languishing in 13th position in the DStv Premiership standings.

Mammila is believed to have been shown the exit shortly after the Chilli Boys suffered a 2-1 defeat to relegation-threatened Swallows FC at the Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium on Sunday.

Mammila has now shared the letter informing the club of his decision to step down as interim coach.

"Morning Chairman,

"I will like to take this opportunity to thank you personally for identifying my coaching talent and for also appointing me a head coach of your team Chippa United Football Club without being advised by anyone.

"I really want to congratulate you for making me the first-ever coach to win four games in a row at Chippa United Football Club and the first DStv [Premiership] coach to win four games for the season of 2022/23.

"It can only take a genius person or specially gifted person to take the decision you took by identifying my coaching capabilities and appointing me as the head coach of your team.

"I feel honoured for coaching your team for the past fourteen (14) DStv matches on which 5 wins, 4 draws, 5 losses, 17 goals scored and also taking the team to the last 16 of Nedbank Cup 2022/23 Season.

"The past two seasons [2020/2021, 2021/2022] Chippa United have only managed to register 5 wins in 30 league matches with no single home win at Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium, but through your vision this season the team has managed to win 5 matches in 14 matches with me as head coach at Nelson Mandela Stadium after two years.

"How can I forget the lifetime coaching badges that you have paid for me, chairman.

"I bow out of the team a happy man because I have done my part for the success of the team.

"I have taken a decision to retire from coaching with the achievements that you have helped me achieve with your team.

"All the best to the team that has made me who I am today.

"A good dancer knows when to leave the stage."
