Market1 Nov 2032

Aderemi Adeoye has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Bandari they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

The dugout1 Nov 2032

Francis Mukangula: 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.” Bandari have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Market1 Nov 2032

David Ochieng hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Bandari can pretend not to have heard.

Squad1 Nov 2032

Words exchanged at Bandari

Alfred Emoni 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.

Squad1 Nov 2032

Words at Bandari training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Erickson Mulu is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

The dugout1 Nov 2032

Nicholas Kibwage frozen out at Bandari

This is not rotation. Nicholas Kibwage has not been in the manager's plans for some time, and nobody at Bandari is pretending otherwise.

Squad1 Nov 2032

Alexander Harris slips down the pecking order

The demotion a club never announces and a dressing room always notices. Alexander Harris is further from the side than he was, and the reason will not be given until he asks.

The dugout1 Nov 2032

Sonny Sharples-Ahmed knocks on the manager’s door

“Thirty minutes, door closed, everything said. We shook hands after.” Whatever was in the room stayed in the room, and Sonny Sharples-Ahmed trained the next morning like a man with less to carry.

The dugout1 Nov 2032

No hiding place for Eric Njeru

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Eric Njeru, and the manager let it.

Boardroom25 Oct 2032

Pressure builds in the Bandari boardroom

The directors have stopped offering the manager public warmth. In football that is usually the stage before the short statement.

The dugout25 Oct 2032

Eric Njeru: 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.” Bandari have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Squad25 Oct 2032

Bandari count the cost of losing Aron Kithae

34 days, the scan says, and scans are kinder than reality. The fixtures in that window have just become somebody else’s job.

Squad25 Oct 2032

Tempers go at Bandari

Alfred Emoni 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.

The dugout25 Oct 2032

Aderemi Adeoye knocks on the manager’s door

“Thirty minutes, door closed, everything said. We shook hands after.” Whatever was in the room stayed in the room, and Aderemi Adeoye trained the next morning like a man with less to carry.

Squad25 Oct 2032

Alexander Harris has had enough of the bench

“I did not come here to warm up in front of people.” He is out of contract eventually, he is old enough to count the weeks, and Bandari will have to give him a reason to stay or an exit.

Market25 Oct 2032

The clock does Aderemi Adeoye’s negotiating for him

1 months left, and both sides know what that means: every week without a signature, the fee Bandari could ask drops and the wages Aderemi Adeoye can ask rise.

Market25 Oct 2032

The Alfred Emoni talk will not go away

Another week, another link, another denial nobody quite believes. Bandari know the market decides these things, not the back pages — but the back pages are louder.

Market25 Oct 2032

Byrne Omondi placed on the list

Bandari have made Byrne Omondi available for transfer. A career at this club is over in all but paperwork.
