AFC Leopards coach Thomas Trucha has rallied the club’s faithful behind the team and promised to turn things around at the struggling Kenya Premier League side.
In a lengthy letter to the club’s fans, Trucha appealed to the fans to continue supporting the team despite their poor start to the season.
“Give players love and support like you are giving to your beloved children, as you all know the bad times they have gone through. I saw players working hard all week to be part of a team for the Mombasa trip,” he said.
He noted that all the players are trying their best to absorb all the new information and instructions in the shortest time possible.
“Every player used in the Bandari match fought for the team, and players who sat on the bench gave full support. To see some fans attacking their own players verbally and almost getting physical even though they gave their best is hurtful. All this happened even before the match,” he added.
He said that the club signed many players before the start of the season, and a new technical bench on board.
“Now we need to support each other and help the club and players when it’s most needed. I came back to AFC because it’s time to help, and I know we will push our players to win the games, but for now, we should all stay together and support each other. Negativity, threats, attacks, doubts, and insults will never help our Ingwe family come back to its glory days. Let’s rally behind the team with love; better days are coming,” he concluded.
