Experienced Sukhwinder Singh is no longer the Technical Director of defending I-League champions Churchill Brothers SC after he himself resigned yesterday following the Varca-based clubs poor start to their 2013/14 I-League campaign.
Sukhwinder told PTI from Goa that Churchill Brothers owners have accepted his resignation and he was leaving the club “on mutual understanding and goodwill”.
“Churchill Brothers is a big team and defending I-League champions and there is big expectation from the supporters and owners. So I told the owners that the performance so far has not been upto the mark and I am responsible for this,” Sukhwinder said.
“Mr Alemao was very kind to me and he said that I should not take the sole responsibility (of the poor performance). But I insisted that I may be relieved and they have agreed to that. It was parting of ways on goodwill and mutual understanding,” Sukhwinder, a former India national team coach, added.
Now the speculations are on who would replace Sukhwinder with his predecessor Subhas Bhowmick tipped to take over again.
