Moyale and Mafco nearly got relegated at the same time. Mwansa was deployed to Mafco FC when the team was in deep trouble. Last season, he not only saved them from going down but also took them to two cup finals. I would have thought that it made more sense to leave him there for a while to stabilise things before sending him somewhere else,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>He said there was no guarantee that if Mwansa goes away Mafco will continue from where he has left them.<\/p>\n<p>Nyirenda also wondered if MDF leadership established that a solution to Moyale\u2019s woes lies in redeployment of Mwansa.<\/p>\n<p>Red Lions, once regarded as MDF national team, were relegated to the second tier barely two seasons after returning to Malawi\u2019s top-flight league.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/malawi\">Malawi<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Malawi.
