Squad20 Feb 2034

Tholithemba Nyawose stands alone

12 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.

Transfer targets20 Feb 2034

Muranga Seal rebuffed over Fortune Omoto

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Mathare United have kept their man, and Muranga Seal go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Match18 Feb 2034

A bad afternoon for Muranga Seal against Shabana

0‑1 to Shabana, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

The dugout20 Feb 2034

The manager’s verdict

“That is on me. I pick the team and I picked wrong.” Managers say that when they mean it and when they need to be seen to, and after 0‑1 Interim Coach left the room before anybody could ask which.

The dugout20 Feb 2034

When it matters, Tholithemba Nyawose 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.

The dugout20 Feb 2034

Joseph Wanyama knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Muranga Seal, and both men came out saying it was fine.

The dugout20 Feb 2034

The manager makes an example of Kevin Mulee

“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.

Squad20 Feb 2034

A first team debut at 17 for Caleb Okoth

Off the academy pitches and into a senior shirt, at 17. The parents in the stand will keep the programme, and so will he.

Market20 Feb 2034

The John Njuguna story refuses to die

It has been denied twice and printed three times, which is the usual arithmetic. Until John Njuguna signs something — a contract at Muranga Seal or anywhere else — this column belongs to him.

The terraces6 Feb 2034

Anger at Muranga Seal spills outside the ground

It has stopped being a mood in the stands and started being something organised. Boards can ignore a bad atmosphere for a long time; they cannot ignore this stage of it for very long at all.

Player ratings6 Feb 2034

Vintage John Njuguna — 8.15

At 33 every good afternoon gets called a throwback, and this one was: 8.15, and nobody on the pitch better.

The dugout6 Feb 2034

Kevin Mulee: 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.” Muranga Seal have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Boardroom6 Feb 2034

Muranga Seal close the window on a squad of their own making

5 in and 3 out, and no more changes for months. The manager has what he has, the supporters have their opinion of it, and the table will have the last word.

Transfer targets6 Feb 2034

Samuel Ayanrinde will not be coming to Muranga Seal

Terms were offered and declined. Whether it was the wages, the role or the town, nobody at Kenya Police is saying, and nobody at Muranga Seal is enjoying the guessing.

Transfer targets6 Feb 2034

Muranga Seal make their move for Fortune Omoto

$13.0K on the table at Mathare United. The manager wanted him, the board agreed a number, and the only voices still to be heard are the ones at the other club.

Boardroom6 Feb 2034

5 academy players handed senior numbers at Muranga Seal

The morning the pathway stops being a brochure and becomes a team sheet. Most of them will not be here in three years; all of them have already done the hard part, which was getting to today.

Transfer targets6 Feb 2034

Gor Mahia tell Muranga Seal: Hélio Semedo is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

One of our own: Patrick Odhiambo joins the Muranga Seal first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Patrick Odhiambo is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.
