Confident Gor Mahia take on Mahakama
Gor Mahia will start their GoTV shield campaign on Saturday as they take on minnows Mahakama-Mombasa. Coach Ze Maria has confidently declared that he is going for a treble this season.
“Gor is a big club and the mentality here is winning every match, every competition,”he said to Citizen Sports
With that in mind, he is thinking long term and has decided to rest some key players.
“I will rest some of the players like Musa Mohammed and Karim Nizigiyamana who have played in all matches.
Which means new signing Wellington Ochieng has an opportunity to impress.
Mahakama coach Mohammed Abdulbasit is vowing an upset
“We are going to offer our best. No doubt there is incredible talent in coast and in my team. We respect Gor a big club in the country and that’s why we sought a top flight club challenge in our preparation when we played Bandari. We lost yes, but learnt a big deal. We have been working on the errors we made in the match and we are prepared now. The team is in high spirit and we want to pull a surprise, our fans in Nairobi especially those from coast should come and see,” he said to Citizen sports.
The match will be played at Kasarani on Saturday June 25
GOMA LOTTO MAKE THIS A LOTTERY WITH A DIFFERENCE: A LOTTERY TO IMPROVE ATTENDANCE AT GORMAHIA HOME MATCHES. This is what i have in mind. Have special lottery match day tickets whereby A GENUINE TICKET purchased automatically qualifies the fan into a special lottery prize to win says kshs.250,000 for 4 winners every quarter or half yearly. Apart from attracting more fans to Gor’s home matches EC will also combat fake tickets in that only a genuine match ticket should generate a lottery number by say the ticket holder smsing the ticket no. to GOMA LOTTO. Attending a Gor Mahia home match by buying a geniune ticket gives fans a chance to win a cash prize. Better still make the prize kshs.100,000 per home match thats an expense of kshs.1.5million for our 15 home matches. If our matches attract 15,000 fans per match than terraces alone will net GM KSHS.22.5M against an expense of kshs.1.5m. Jasego, something for the EC to ponder?
