Vihiga Bullets FC head coach George Owoko is glad that his side will finally feature in the FKF Premier League after missing the first five league matches of the season.Bullets, alongside Wazito FC and Mathare United missed the first five matches of the campaign as there was a case challenging the nullification of last season’s leagues by the affected teams like APS Bomet and Kona Rangers.##NAJAVA_MECA_6886653##Just over a week ago, the Sports Disputes Tribunal threw another spanner in the works ruling against the existence of FKF’s NEC that nullified the leagues. On Thursday however, FKF secured orders from the constitutional court, staying the SDT’s ruling and now the leagues are set to go on as earlier planned.On Wednesday, Bullets will play their first league match against Bidco United, and Owoko admits that it has been a long wait for his team.”I am glad that we are finally going to play. This has been an agonising wait for both the players and the technical bench because we never knew what league exactly we were going to play in and that obviously affects how you prepare. With things clearer it is easy to focus now, ” he said.On his team’s preparedness for the new season, Owoko says that only the tactical preparedness for the game is left but is confident that his side is ready in all the other areas.”Physically we are ready and what is left now is just the tactical preparations for the game. It is making the players aware of what to expect against Bidco and how we can hurt them and after that, I believe that we will be good to go,”.Mathare United, Wazito and Vihiga Bullets will play their first matches of the season next week. pic.twitter.com/D448AqoP4J— Kefootball_ (@Kefootball1) December 15, 2022 On whether his team will struggle with match fitness as they join the week on week six, the tactician admitted that it will be a challenge that he hopes will not last for long.”Of course, it is a disadvantage, it is a situation that we find ourselves in and there’s nothing we can do about it, we just have to try and work around it and hope that it doesn’t stretch for long because it can be disastrous. We will try to be stable as soon as possible, “he added.Wanyama reveling about playing in new position at Gor Mahia
