The dugout

Geoffrey Ojunga says Kenya Police went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Market

Ambrose Sifuna is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Kenya Police is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Squad

Yves Koutiama falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Squad

Words exchanged at Kenya Police

Joash Onyango and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

The dugout

Gédéon Muyadi gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

The dugout

When it matters, David Owino plays

It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

Player ratings

Alvin Mangeni scores twice — 9.16

Two goals and a mark of 9.16 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Squad

George Kipkirui breaks a bone — 15 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 15 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Match

Kenya Police see off Nairobi United

Three points for Kenya Police, 3‑2 the final word against Nairobi United in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Squad

A falling-out at Kenya Police

Marvin Nabwire and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

The dugout

Caleb Nyakeya has his say

“We earned that. I asked them for a reaction and I got one, and now I want the same again on Saturday.” Caleb Nyakeya on a 3‑2 afternoon that pleased him more than he was prepared to show.

The dugout

The manager makes an example of Joash Onyango

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Squad

The division's best last weekend was a Kenya Police man

It is a small honour and it is not nothing: somebody watched every match in the division and decided that Alvin Mangeni was the best thing in any of them.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Erick Zakayo

Successful dribbles: 11. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

The dugout

Geordy Ndecket does not fit this one

Ninety specific minutes wanted a different sort of player, and the manager picked one. He is not out of form and he is not in the side, and both are true.

Match

Kenya Police out of the cup

Tusker ended it 0‑0. The season narrows to the league now, and everyone in the ground knew it before the final whistle.

Market

Terms done: Ambrose Sifuna is going

Fee agreed, wages agreed, and Ulinzi Stars waiting with a shirt. Nobody at Kenya Police is pretending otherwise, and the supporters have stopped asking whether and started asking when.

Squad

A fracture rules George Kipkirui out for 37 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Kenya Police will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

The terraces

A cup embarrassment at Tusker follows Kenya Police home

0-3. Going out of a cup is one afternoon; going out like that is a week of phone-ins, and the manager will hear every one of them.

Market

Kenya Police say no — this time

The offer from AS Korofina for Samuel Ayanrinde was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Boardroom

Inquest at Kenya Police

The manager kept them in and said what needed saying. A response is expected on Saturday, and if it does not come the questions move upstairs.

Squad

Tempers go at Kenya Police

Hernest Malonga was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Transfer targets

A loan move for Geoffrey Ojunga is in the works

Kenya Police have made the call to Bandari. No fee, a share of the wages, and a spare shirt in the position where the squad has been thinnest all season.

Squad

5 new faces, and Kenya Police are still learning each other

A squad rebuilt inside one window pays for it in a currency nobody budgets for. The football is not worse than the sum of the players; it is worse than the sum of the players who have played together before.
