Hapoel Haifa was defeated last night (Saturday) 4:0 by MS Ashdod, and the club has severe criticism of the results so far.
Owner Yoav Katz is inclined not to fire coach Nir Klinger, but the latter's position is no longer as stable as it was until now.
Sources close to Katz advised him to make a shake-up in the coach's position already now and the name of Kobi Merafa came up as a possible replacement for Klinger, but the owner is in no rush to make the decision, despite the fact that his team has been without a win since the first round and despite the changes made to the staff so far have not brought a change in the results.

"We were seen as a shame and a disgrace," they said in Haifa, "even with ten players, we must not disintegrate like this. We take a step forward and three back, that is how we cannot be in the top playoffs, and we must not talk about the top six in such a capacity."
The coach himself does not intend to resign, and is convinced that he can make a difference in the results with the current staff, which was upgraded in the last two weeks with Eliel Peretz, Hatem Abdelhamid and Mohamed Kamara.
were we wrong
We will fix it!
