We delivered over the weekend. Was it pretty? Was it nerve racking? Was it Gor Mahia? YES! It had elements of what we are and what we could be, those elements that continue to puzzle us all. It’s not easy being a Gor Mahia supporter It provides its fair share of pain and much joy. Of course we want the Club to win every game, every player to place pin point passes, make every shot on target and every decision to be spot on. And the Croat must be perfect! If that were the case the game would be boring.…
“You can motivate players better with kind words than you can with a whip.” – Bud Wilkinson, Famous College Football Coach.

There are bound to be changes in all teams in readiness for the new season, with player exits and entry marking the centre stage of activities in the coming sixty days, and Gor Mahia is of no exemption. However the club’s secretary general George Bwana has dismissed stories circulating in media and social websites over a possible move by dependable defender David Owino to Tusker Fc, while at the same time remaining tight lipped over the…
After the International break, another weekend crowded with TPL events is here with us and our focus as usual is on Gor Mahia and may be other ‘worthy’ title chasers. City Stadium will be the place to be on Saturday to witness Gor Mahia sorting out their differences with Karuturi Sports. Apart from the few Gor players who were involved in International duty, the rest of the team have been busy hitting the training ground with all the seriousness and concentration needed. Looking at the past five league matches for both teams, a lot can be discussed considering their match…
