    People are expecting good things at the team and blaming others but not providing solutions, who is this alternative angel who will work miracles. Come up with solutions, you all know where we have been these past two years

    Gor will be stronger next year than even this year.All the pessimists will be proved wrong as usual. The exodus, if there will be any, will be two sided. All we need is a lean teamto deliver next year

    Rachier, this club has taken alot of your resources to build. more than can be imagined. Why let it all crumble when it matters most? why? You have worked too, too hard. Why walili do you allow Kogallo to die when it matters so much now?
