Romania - Liga 1 - Victoria Branesti without coach

Coach Ilie Stan had resigned from Victoria Branesti. Former Steaua midfielder blamed the bad situation in which the club is at the moment. Branesti is on 16th place, 9 points away from Bistrita, the first team over the relegation line. "I sense that i cannot get the team out of this situation, i must quit", said Ilie Stan. He came to Branesti in 2008 and managed to get the team from the 3rd league to the first in 2 years.

Not only the coach left the team. Also the sports manager, Alin Buzarin, said that he will resign after the loss 2-4 with Pandurii: "I don't want to take part of this football, so i officialy announce that i will resign from Victoria Branesti"

Branesti player, Floretin Petre has commented also the situation at the team: "I just got a call from the club and they announced me that Ilie Stan resigned. Tomorrow we had training and I think back then we will know the situation and who will coach us from now on."

They will play in the weekend with U Cluj. A team that are undefeated for 5 rounds, a team that is on the rise. Odds are around 2.65 for a U Cluj win. Take them fast as they will drop. I don't see Branesti getting something from this.
