Cong Phuong's team was harshly criticized by the fan club
After two losses to Sint-Truiden, fans are gradually losing patience with the team. Speaking on Voetbal Krant on August 5, Chairman of the fans' Association Mike Swysen called on CEO Takayuki Tateishi to resign.
"We don't blame the players, they have tried their best. It is the team's leadership that must take responsibility for the current bad situation. We fans are very frustrated with the current situation of Sint-Truiden. We will boycott the team in the upcoming home match against Standard," said Mr. Mike Swysen.

Coach Pep Guardiola confident to help Man City win the Premier League
Coach Pep Guardiola believes that the race for the Premier League title next season will be extremely fierce, but he and his students at Man City are confident enough to have a third consecutive time stepping up to the top spot. I think that when the new season begins, Man City, Liverpool, Arsenal, M.U, Chelsea and Tottenham all deserve to be considered candidates for the championship. With the game more open and unpredictable, it will not be easy to predict which team will eventually win.
"Of course, our goal is still the top and we are all very confident that we can do it for the third time in a row," the Spaniard added.
"Maguire is not of enough class to compete with Van Dijk"
In an article in Mirror, former player Stan Collymore commented: "I like and respect Maguire, he is a good player, a leader with a voice and influence in the dressing room. However, Maguire has no place to compare his class with Van Dijk."
"With the standards of an English defender and leadership qualities, Maguire deserves to be trusted. However, if he wants to find someone to take the club to the Premier League or Champions League, Van Dijk is the answer," Collymore commented.
