Kitwe United Lament Promotion Failure

Kitwe United Chairman Michael Kalima says the legendary club regrets
its failure to win promotion to the elite league this year.

In the ended Division One North campaign, Kitwe United finished on
number nine with 44 points in 34 games.

Kalima said at the beginning of the season the Buchi Boys targeted to
win promotion and started the campaign on a good note.

“We started well and our aspiration was to play premier league
football next year but when you look at the last nine games we have
played, we have not performed well and when you don’t play well, you
should expect the worst,” he stated.

Kalima said:” We do regret our failure to win promotion, you see every
team’s expectation is to win the league and qualify to the Super
Division but things may not turn out to be the way you expected”.

He acknowledged that club supporters are disappointed with poor
showing of the Garden Park outfit this year which has led to the
team’s failure to bounce back to the Super Division.

“Yes! The supporters are disappointed.obviously after changing the
technical bench the fans expected the performance of the team to
improve,” Kalima said.

He further promised that Kitwe United will strive to win promotion to
the elite league next season.
