The Sofapaka Gazette

Ernest Mohammed stands alone
8 saves, and a scoreline the ten men in front of him had no right to. Goalkeepers only get noticed on the bad days; this was one of the other ones.

Edwin Lutta: that is not what I was promised
“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Sofapaka have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Tempers go at Sofapaka
David Nshimirimana 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.
Match19 Sep 2026
A bad afternoon for Sofapaka against Kariobangi Sharks
1‑2 to Kariobangi Sharks, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Victor Ochieng 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 view from the dugout
“We will look at it, we will learn from it, and we go again.” The three sentences every manager keeps for a 1‑2 defeat, delivered by Clinton Ayumba to a room that had heard them before.

Sofapaka pick somebody else ahead of Brian Olang'o
There is no complaint available here and everybody involved knows it, which does not make the walk to the bench any shorter. Form is the only currency in football that cannot be borrowed against.

Victor Ochieng is off the mark for Sofapaka
The first one is the one every signing is asked about until it arrives. It has arrived, and he can stop being asked.
Market21 Sep 2026
The Eugene Wethuli talk will not go away
Another week, another link, another denial nobody quite believes. Sofapaka know the market decides these things, not the back pages — but the back pages are louder.
