Africa-Press – Uganda. <\/strong><\/span>Soltilo Bright Stars and Gaddafi started their season slowly but, along the way found their mojo, winning games while promising so much.<\/p>\n

The fortunes turned as the second round rolled on in February; Bright Stars have managed only one win in their five games while Gaddafi has none but lost only one.<\/p>\n

The Soldier Boys currently sit 9th on the Startimes Uganda Premier League table with 25 points, a place and a point above the Stars, ahead of their meeting on Friday at Kavumba.<\/p>\n

Dimming Stars<\/b><\/p>\n

Coach Asaph Mwebaze is concerned with the situation that has left his Bright Stars just nine points above the red line and 15 behind Villa at the top.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf we had picked some points, then we would be closer to the top than the bottom,\u201d Mwebaze bemoans their current run.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re trying so much to arrest the rot to avoid being dragged into the relegation fights,\u201d he stresses.<\/p>\n

Mwebaze\u2019s side will be playing their third game within a week today.<\/p>\n

Gaddafi\u2019s Modern woes<\/b><\/p>\n

Unlike Mwebaze, coach Wasswa Bbosa and his boss Lt. Edrine Ochieng seem content with Gaddafi\u2019s productivity.<\/p>\n

Their start to the season saw them go four games without a win, but a return to form got them six consecutive wins at Kakindu Stadium to jump out of the relegation discussions.<\/p>\n

In between, the club battled to keep their sponsor Modern Group of Companies, but after Fufa declined their request to rebrand its name, the business hit a snag.<\/p>\n

The situation affected the coffers, causing some turbulence in the team that ended with a couple of senior players leaving and the mood dampened. They include Charles Musiige who left before the season, and the trio of Godfrey Lwesibawa, Nicholas Kasozi and Shafiq Bakaki.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve not been winning games but are also not losing,\u201d Ochieng lightly chipped in.<\/p>\n

Ochieng partly blames the saga that led to Modern leaving as the cause but is confident the team will survive the test this season.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn a way, the issue of Modern leaving dampened the mood in the camp, but we\u2019re not doing badly because we need a win to be safe. So, there\u2019s no need to panic,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
