After weeks full of drama, later solved by their governor George Natembeya, the Kenya Women’s Premier League (KWPL) side, Transzoia Falcons, failed to honor their rescheduled round four matches against Gaspo Women at the Gems Cambridge grounds in Rongai.
Falcons were suspended by the Football Kenya Federation (FKF) for two games amid reports of a fallout between players, the technical bench, and management.
The decision was made after a meeting between the stakeholders and Trans Nzoia county government officials at the Kitale showground.
This follows an incident where a number of players were thrown out of the team’s residential camp after their loss against Vihiga Queens.
According to a source who sought anonymity, the club could not honor their match against Gaspo after the suspended officials resumed their duties at the club.
“The same same leaders are back in office and the players have vowed not go back until a new office is takes over,” a source told Nation.
Gaspo also confirmed that Falcons had no representative during the pre-match meeting on Wednesday morning.
“We had done enough preparations to face our opponents but they were no where to be seen. I tried reaching their officials via phone but the calls went unanswered. The most important thing is that we have three points in the bag, this season we are fighting for the title,” said Gaspo team manager Edward Githua.
Earlier this season, Zetech Sparks failed to travel to Vihiga for a league match against three-time champions Vihiga Queens.
On the other hand, Kayole Starlets also failed to honor their league fixture against WADADIA Women in Kitale in December last year.
Gaspo is now third on the log with 11 points, five points behind league leaders Vihiga Queens.
On the other hand, the Falcons are in position nine with six points.
