The outcome of Kumasi Asante Kotoko’s Ghana Premier League (GPL), match week four fixture against Berekum Chelsea won’t define the future of coach David Duncan.

The Porcupine Warriors are yet to record a win after three matches — losing one (away) and drawing two at (home).

Irate fans of the record premier league champions wants the former Great Olympics coach sacked, but management won’t succumb to the pressure the supporters.

The Board and Management share the frustration of the supporters, but they are optimistic Duncan is the right man to lead the club on the pitch.

Kotoko has not ‘even’ considered approaching Medeama SC boss Tom Strand as a potential replacement should Duncan continue to under-perform, but it could be possible should they lose confidence in his services.

The board of the club are at peace to work. No questions from above why the poor start to their title charge despite impressive performances and results during pre-season.

Asante Kotoko are ready for any result from the Golden City Park, but they accept a defeat will only mount pressure on not only the coach, but management too.
