Wanderers want to sell Mutharika bus to settle debts
The cash-strapped Mighty Wanderers FC plan to sell the Higger bus which they got from immediate past president Peter Mutharika.
The Lali Lubani Road outfit want to ease financial woes following the withdraw of sponsorship by Japanese used vehicle dealers Be Forward Limited.
Wanderers chairperson Simon Sikwese said selling the bus is the best option for their survival but said the matter is currently under discussions.
“We will discuss this issue at length because we feel it makes sense to sell the bus so we can pay some debts,” said Sikwese on MBC Radio 2.
He said money realised from the sale of the bus would help also to settle players upkeep allowances, pay training and game bonuses.
According to Sikwese, once the decision is approved, the club will advertise the sale of the bus.
Former president gave Nomads and their rivals Nyasa Big Bullets buses last year.
The two buses were bought from Rashy Motors in Blantyre at K125 million each.

do fund raising osati kugulisa asset. Paja Malawi teams operate on katapila
Selling a bus (a gift) to pay off allowances and bonuses!! Seriously!! These are COVID times, management needs to adjust its operations. This is ridiculous. From now on, gifts should be “on loan”, so they cant be sold. Or come with conditions – that it will not be re-sold. Same goes for tractors bought with govt funds for poor farmers!!
Shame!
Thats a wrong move.The problem of giving power to people who have no interest on football affairs.How can you sell a gift?After selling the bus what will be the next move?
This is the result of running a football club on handouts. For how long has the Club been in existence, holed up in that derlicit corner off Lali Lubani and with no football ground?
It’s time clubs started operating commercially , as a business.
After selling the bus what next? Chicken heads with no brains
Kikikikiiiiiii, kapinyolitseni kwa mutharika.
Osangulisa bus pezani njira yoti musovere mvutolo olo tengani bus ipite paseu idzipanga ndilama mulembe oyendetsa wokhazikika ndilama ipezwka komaso Inu akumipapando tathamangani kwa athu akufuna kwabwino kuti team izipitilira ngati mukulephera kunganiza tapitani kwa azanu akuthandizeni zeru
It only in Malawi that football fails to generate money. How much does a Wonderers match fetch? The team has many players, why can’t the other players be used in friendly matches just for the sake of generating income? But you will see a team with 33 players, only using 15 players and the other 18 players receiving free salary, then you complain of lack of salaries.
Sale the board of trustees
Kuganiza kwabwanji uku? Ndakukonda kuganiza uku kuli ndi great insights….Hahahahaha
When the proceeds of the bus sale finish they will start selling players boots, socks, chin pads, sweat bands and then ??????…..think outside the box Ma Noma….
