In a statement, the club referred to reports in various sections of the press, not including maltafootball.com, regarding the position of Stephen Azzopardi as Coach of the club.
“The committee of Sliema Wanderers FC would like to confirm their full confidence in the qualities, dedication and work being carried out by Stephen Azzopardi, together with the rest of the technical staff.

In August, they won the BOV Super Cup after defeating Hibernians. However in the BOV Premier League, they won just four of the ten matches they played and are currently sixth.
