Bulpin gets Shillong Lajong sack

Desmond Bulpin has been fired by the club’s management after recent form threatened to curtail the side’s campaign.

After his notable coaching stint with the Pailan Arrows, Shillong Lajong took the gamble and signed the English coach, who has been credited for discovering Peter Crouch and Jermaine Defoe.

However, the tactician failed to impress during his tenure as Lajong boss and has now been relieved of his duties by the officials.

“Thangboi has been with the team since 2009 and has two and a half seasons of I League experience besides a stint in the second division in 2010/11 season, when Shillong Lajong qualified again in the I league. We have faith in his abilities”, said Larsing M Sawyan, the General Secretary of Shillong Lajong Football Club.

“The club would like to place in record the valuable contributions of Desmond Bulpin in the Youth Development system of the Club, which we believe will pay dividends in the near future. We thank him for his services and the commitment showed to the Club. We wish him all the best for the future. Our immediate goal is to concentrate on the next 2 home games and the away game at Salgaocar before the break,” said the secretary while talking to the media.
