Chippa United has suspended their head coach Ernst Middendorp.
United's technical director Mich D’Avray has been appointed caretaker boss of the Absa Premiership strugglers, with Fadlu Davids continuing in his role as assistant coach.
The club released a statement yesterday in which it stated that it had suspended incumbent coach Ernst Middendorp with immediate effect pending the outcome of an investigation and possible hearing to follow.
Middendorp has failed to claim a victory at the Port Elizabeth-based outfit - who are three points above the drop zone with six matches left - after replacing Roger Sikhakhane in the festive break.
Under the German's watch, Chippa drew four games and lost four in all competitions.
