WanzusiHeroes 0 Police 0Maji v SCOULNEWLY appointed Maji coach, John Isabirye, will be eager to help Maji flow in the Nile Special Super League when they host SCOUL at Nakivubo stadium today.Maji have lost their three consecutive matches to Mbarara (0-3), Police (0-5) and Villa (0-4), which led to the sacking of coaches Angello Lonyesi and Stephen Mulinde late last week.This, coupled with the sacking of other seven players, means more work for Isabirye, whose first assignment is to keep Maji in the Super League next year.However, the hurdle looks tough, most especially as he takes on Leo Adra’s SCOUL, which has an average performance from its last encounters.At Mbale Municipal stadium on Saturday, visiting Police held Mbale Heroes, playing without coach Charles Namakoola, to a goalless draw.Poor finishing let down the hosts, who created more chances, mostly in the second half. Meanwhile, NFLC has fixed June 4-14 as the mid season transfer and registration period for players.“Only players who do not have a contract with their club, have stayed in their clubs for more than two years and are not student players will be allowed to transfer,” said NFLC secretary Justus Mugisha.ends
