ALEX ISABIRYE OUT: WHO WILL LEAD URA NEXT AFTER THE MANAGERIAL CRISIS?
Alex Isabirye is sacked by URA FC after a poor run of 1 win in 7 games. The former league winner departs with his entire staff, leaving the 4-time champions in 11th place. Edward Golola takes interim charge.
Alex Isabirye is now the third Premier League coach to be sacked this season, after URA let him go.
This former league winner with the tax collectors was sacked after a 2-1 defeat by KCCA. That makes it six out of seven games where the club has failed to win.
Assistant coaches Baker Kasule and Crespo Asiku, and goalkeeping coach Jamil Damba are also leaving.
A statement on the club’s website said that URA FC and Alex Isabirye have agreed to go their separate ways. It also mentioned the departure of the assistant coaches.
Isabirye joins Hussein Mbalangu (NEC), Jimmy Kintu Mwera (Calvary), and Simon Peter Mugerwa (Mbarara City) as coaches who've lost their jobs this season.
Isabirye, who began in May 2023, is leaving after managing the Tax Collectors for 36 games, with 17 wins, 9 draws, and 10 losses.
Edward Golola has been confirmed as the interim coach and will be in charge for the game against Buhimba Saints on Wednesday.
The club said that Edward Golola will be the head coach for the Match Day 8 game against Buhimba Saints on Wednesday, November 26, at Hamz Stadium, Nakivubo. They will announce a permanent head coach and technical team later.
Isabirye leaves the four-time champions with only 8 points from a possible 21 this season, putting the club in 11th place.
URA last won a trophy in 2014 when they beat KCCA at Mbale to win the Uganda Cup, and they haven’t won a league title since 2011.
READY FOR COLD: SHE CRANES EYE CELTIC CUP GLORY
Uganda's She Cranes are better prepared for the UK cold as they target the Celtic Cup trophy, starting their campaign against Namibia.
How well Uganda’s She Cranes do at the Celtic Cup, which starts tomorrow in Glasgow, might depend on the weather in Scotland and the UK.
The team knows what winter is like, but their last trip to the UK in January was tough. It wasn't just the cold; several players got sick, which weakened key positions and hurt how they played.
But this time, team manager Alice Alweny thinks they’ve learned from that.
“We learned our lesson the last time we went to the UK. This time we are doing all we can to stay healthy and be ready to play,” Alweny said.
Like before, the team will get winter gear when they arrive in the UK, thanks to kit sponsors Gilbert. Players are also told to bring their own warm clothes to help them deal with the expected freezing weather this week. The plan is for the team to get to Scotland on Sunday, rest on Monday, and play a practice game before their first Celtic Cup match on Wednesday.
Having seen the good, bad, and ugly sides of winter in past competitions, the She Cranes now have more experience with what to do and not do when playing in cold weather.
Even with the challenges, Alweny is still sure her team can do well.
“The team is ready. They are going to Scotland to win a trophy. The girls look good and will be feeling positive,” she said.
Uganda’s first Celtic Cup game is against Namibia.
NAKIVUBO DOUBLE-HEADER DRAMA: CAN URA RESET? VIPERS FACE EXPRESS
A crucial UPL double-header at Nakivubo: URA's new coach faces Buhimba, then Vipers battle Express. A test of early-season mettle.
The StarTimes Uganda Premier League returns to Nakivubo Stadium this Wednesday evening with two games that could change the season's direction. URA will face Buhimba United at 5 PM, and then Express will play Vipers at 8 PM. Both games have pressure and stories to watch.
The first game is a fresh start for URA with their new fill-in coach, Edward Golola, who is taking over for Alex Isabirye. The four-time champions changed coaches after winning just one of seven games. They are currently 13th with eight points.
Golola aims to stabilise a team struggling to work together on offence, stay consistent in the midfield, and keep a strong defence. His first test is Buhimba, who is also trying to find their rhythm. URA views this game as a chance to reset, while Buhimba hopes to surprise a team getting used to a new coach. This game will show if Golola can restore the confidence and structure that URA needs.
The second game features Vipers against Express, a match that is usually close and exciting. URA starts fresh with their coach, while Vipers aims to continue their perfect record on a big UPL night at Nakivubo.
Vipers are coming off a 2–1 win against Maroons, keeping their streak alive. Coach Ivan Minnaert has four tough games ahead, and he’ll attempt to rotate players and maintain the intensity. Express is currently eighth with nine points and is still searching for consistency under Jimmy Kintu. Their goal will be to disrupt the Vipers’ game.
Last season, these two teams drew 2–2 in the same game, so Express has shown they can challenge Vipers. With new coaches, current form, and early-season standings all important, tonight’s doubleheader will be a major test for both teams.
