Following the 3-2 stoppage-time loss to Kakamega Homeboyz, incensed Gor Mahia fans were baying for head coach Johnathan McKinstry’s blood and demanding his instant resignation but the move seems like a knee-jerk reaction. The record Kenyan champions have lost steam at a crucial stage of the season having just won one of their last five games and have only been kept in firm contention of the title by Tusker falters. The form certainly is not synonymous with championship-winning teams, especially in the business end of the season and fans are right to ask questions. The Northern Irish head coach has…

Gor Mahia head coach Johnathan McKinstry has conceded that their Wednesday Football Kenya Federation Premier League (FKFPL) opponents Kakamega Homeboyz deserved the victory. K’Ogalo were stunned by Homeboyz, who took home three points following a 3-2 victory at Kasarani. This was one of the crucial matches of the season, given that Gor Mahia were destined to win the league if they had won and Tusker dropped points against Posta Rangers. But they ended up on the losing end as Homeboyz fought back to win the duel deep in stoppage time. “When you score three goals, you deserve it,” McKinstry said after…
Gor Mahia’s defeat to Kakamega Homeboyz at Kasarani has opened the title race wide against close contender Tusker FC. K’Ogalo lost 3-2 to visiting Homeboys in an entertaining match played and Moi Sports Center Kararani. The extra-time winning goal by Seba was enough to silence all-time champions.

Gor Mahia were off to a great start through Patrick Kaddu’s opener, before Ambrose Sifuna leveled matters…
FKF Premier League leader Gor Mahia will lift the title if they win today’s match against Kakamega HomeBoyz with the hope that Tusker lose to Posta Rangers during the mid-week game in Moi Internationa Sports Center Kasarani.. K’Ogalo tops the league table with 67poing, a 2 points lead to the close contender Tusker FC. Many K’Ogalo fans wouldn’t want to recall the 2012 season, a season K’Ogalo slipped from the title in the last game of the season, giving the title away to Tusker FC. Gor Mahia were looking to end the 17-year title draught only to fail to win…
Whenever you watch Gor Mahia play, it is usually very common to talk about three things. One is their expansive playing style under Johnathan McKinstry where the side aims at keeping the ball on the carpet. Two is the insistence on playing out from the back using the goalkeeper and the defenders. When you spark this conversation, one defender in particular will always be the topic of conversation. Dennis Ng’ang’a Njire. Ng’ang’a is a left-footed defender who can play as a left back, at central defense or even as a midfielder and is usually the one who takes set pieces…
