Yes they have invested in the club but they needed to allow us do our job as coaches,\u201d he said. Nchanga are tenth on the table with 10 points after recording two wins, four draws and two losses.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was not destined to fail at Nchanga, look at the track record where I am coming from and results have been seen.
