How Dylan Kerr was dramatically appointed by Gallants

An insider at Marumo Gallants has detailed how the club chairman Abram Sello managed to replace head coach Dan Malesela with Dylan Kerr.

While Malesela has been placed on special leave after winning only two and playing to a draw three of his 12 matches in charge, Kerr comes in to take over.

Malesela's latest defeat was the 2-0 loss to the mighty Orlando Pirates on Saturday.

"Kerr is here as a technical advisor, head coach, he's basically responsible for the team," An insider tells KickOff.

"To tell you the truth at this moment nobody is sure if the status can be saved.

"To be fair coach Kerr has not gone behind anybody's back, On Sunday he was told to come and meet the chairman.

"It was the club chairman who offered to book him a flight. Remember the guy has a good record of saving clubs from relegation.

"He was told on the phone to come and save Pirates, that was after the loss to Pirates on Saturday.

"From what I've heard even Dance was told beforehand. Kerr wouldn't be here if they hadn't done that.

"The club is no longer happy with Malesela, and at the same time, they are not sure if there is still enough time to save the club from relegation.

"To survive Kerr must help us win at least six out of our 10 remaining matches."
