Under-Fire Hearts Coach Gets Boardroom Backing

Hearts of Oak board member Frank Nelson has jumped to the defence of under-fire boss Nebojsa Vucicevic insisting he is the right man for the job. The Serbian trainer has come under massive pressure after his side�s 2-0 defeat to Liberty Professionals to push them to the fourth position on the league table. Some of the supporters are beginning to question his competence after picking up a single point from their last two games. But management member Frank Nelson wants the fans to exercise restraints. He told Accra-based Citi FM: �He is a very good coach and he needs the time to make things work and so I will just urge our supporters to be patient� �We�re all unhappy with the outcome of the game but we must give him and his backroom staff time to continue the rebuild process� Hearts have a difficult tie against free scoring Medeama SC at home on 11 December.
