Every team sets its own goals. Maybe they thought they could come in late, but this league is a marathon.”We started slowly, but we pulled ourselves up and turned things around. Perhaps this is how they operate, being known as the team with nine lives, but every season is different. We won’t be part of a story that helps them escape again.”With Mathare’s safety already guaranteed, Kamau is now focused on securing a top-half finish, which he believes would be a fitting tribute to the club’s founder and long-time chairman Bob Munro, who passed away earlier this year after a prolonged illness.Ambani rallies AFC Leopards to fight for a top-five finish“I’m proud of what the boys have done. Mr. Munro’s wish was that we remain in the Premier League, and we’ve achieved that. Now, we must honour him with a strong finish.
