It is largely a young team and as you know I have worked with young players both in school teams and at club level and I know how to get the best out of them, these boys will perform well,” he added.It is still not clear what the club will be playing next season. Bullets were relegated to the second tier at the end of last season after finishing in the second-last position. However, the club, alongside Mathare United have been attending FKF Premier League CEOS meeting and insist that they are part of the top tier as the FKF Transition Committee did not have the powers to chop them from the top tier.It is likely to degenerate into a battle as APS Bomet, one of the clubs promoted to the top have made it clear they will seek legal redress should they be denied a chance to feature in the top tier. The matter will be decided by the FKF National Executive Committee (NEC).Aussems sends SOS to CS Ababu Namwamba over FIFA ban
