but his assistant Lloyd Chitembwe has been handed a bigger say in the preparations and selection of the misfiring Green Machine.
A day after the capital’s second biggest club decided to reassign Connor to the ceremonial post of technical director, there was a dramatic change of strategy by the Caps United management yesterday.
Connor met Caps United vice-president Farai Jere in Harare in the morning yesterday and pleaded for more time to impose his style and turn the team into a winning side again.
In subsequent meetings, Connor was spared the axe and will remain in charge of the technical team but he now has to accept a bigger voice coming from his assistant, Chitembwe.
The Caps United leadership believe Chitembwe has better knowledge of the players at the club and his role should be more than just an advisory one and the two coaches will work hand-in-glove from now onwards.
Publicly, the Caps United family will claim nothing has changed but our Harare Bureau has it on good authority that privately Connor has been ordered to involve Chitembwe more in the preparations and decision-making.
