Zimbabwe Soccer Supporters Association Chairman Eddie Mboma Nyatanga said Tuesday that his organization supports the call by some fans for the sacking of Warriors Coach Jose Claudinei Georgini, known as Valinhos, following the national team's failure to qualify for the 2010 World Cup and Africa Cup of Nations.

The Warriors lost to Namibia's Brave Warriors by a score of 4-2 in Windhoek on Saturday.

Nyatanga told reporter Marvellous Mhlanga-Nyahuye he hopes the Zimbabwe Football Association will establish a commission of inquiry to determine why the team failed miserably after hiring the internationally known Brazilian coach.
