Nevertheless, Bobby Ogolla , the interim coach will likely still be in charge on Sunday as Kogalo take on Bandari at Mbaraki sports club.<\/p>\n<p>Ogolla was optimistic;\u00a0 \u201cIt is a big match for us,\u201d.\u00a0 \u201cIt is our chance,\u201d he went on, \u201cand we want to take it. We know it will be hard playing them away until the end, and the only way we can deal with that is to look at ourselves and win the game.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are hugely determined and, of course, there\u2019s a target for every single game. But let&#8217;s start by being completely focused on the next one and continue to play well in the rest.\u201d Ogolla told the clubs site.<\/p>\n<p>Last season Bandari beat Gor Mahia 1-0 at Mbaraki on a rain drenched field in which the field was so unplayable that the game should probably have been canceled if FIFA rules were followed.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 250px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gormahia.net\/images\/gm-bandari.jpg\" width=\"250\" height=\"313\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Makori and the rest had no solution for the muddy pitch last season<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>After the Bandari match Williamson will have an opportunity to stamp his impression on the team. At this point, the team badly needed an injection of fresh ideas. With Logarusic in charge, it seemed that other teams had figured out how to stop Gor Mahia. And Logarusic seemed to have run out of ideas. This is why with a few exceptions, coaches rarely stay at one team for long. There comes a time when a team needs the introduction of new ideas.<\/p>\n<p>Skipper Jerim Onyango has welcomed the arrival of Williamson. &#8220;We welcome the appointment of Williamson as our new coach and his addition will be vital to what our current coach Bobby Ogolla has been imparting on us .Williamson is a very experienced coach with continental experience and I believe this will be a huge turning point for Gor Mahia.\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;As players we will cooperate and learn new techniques from him while hoping that his vast knowledge will help us to win titles,&#8221; Onyango told supersport.com.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fb-background-color\">\n\t\t\t  <div \n\t\t\t  \tclass = \"fb-comments\" \n\t\t\t  \tdata-href = \"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/news\/gor-mahia-starts-new-era\/\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-numposts = \"10\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-lazy = \"true\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-colorscheme = \"light\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-order-by = \"social\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-mobile=true>\n\t\t\t  <\/div><\/div>\n\t\t  <style>\n\t\t    .fb-background-color {\n\t\t\t\tbackground:  !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t.fb_iframe_widget_fluid_desktop iframe {\n\t\t\t    width: 100% !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t  <\/style>\n\t\t  ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Following the arrival of Scot Bobby Williamson to replace Croatian Zdravko Logarusic, Gor Mahia are set to embark on a<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"colormag_page_layout":"default_layout","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2696","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2696","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2696"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2696\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2696"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2696"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gormahia.net\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2696"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
