The long-standing Gor Mahia chairman has made a rallying call to the club's fans if it is to stand a chance of retaining its FKFPL title.
Gor Mahia chairman Ambrose Rachier has made a plea to the K'Ogalo faithful following the start of the new Football Kenya Federation Premier League (FKFPL) season.
K’Ogalo drew 1-1 with Sofapaka in the opening match of the season, which was a very underwhelming result to kick the campaign off, but will be hoping to make amends for the result when they face Ulinzi Stars at the Ulinzi Sports Complex on Saturday afternoon.
