The attacker, who joined AllStars on a short stint in June 2015 from Tusker FC, said its normal for a player to feel the urge of proving a point to his old club when he comes against them.

Grateful

-Am getting along well despite not scoring today. They (Gor Mahia) were all over me in three's,bullying me from all sides, but we are grateful for the one point. We try our chances in next game and see how it goes.

- It is quite experience playing against a team you once played for.You want to push yourself in such a match and do everything to make them feel a bit of your absence, Oboya told futaa.

Oboya has been a pillar in the team’s recent wake of form, netting three goals in four matches.

Okidi optimistic resurgent AllStars will survive chop

AllStars added another remarkable result to their recent rejuvenation, rallying to hold leader Gor 1-1 on Wednesday to close in on their struggling counterparts with Okidi convinced there still remain room to catch up.

Stagnating

-We are looking for teams on top of us they are not moving, still stagnating. We just have to work hard and take each game at a time. We have collected a point against the champions. It was a win for us but we appreciate the one point,

-We next play Chemelil and I am sure we will back to the three, we need the three points and I believe this team cannot go down, Okidi said.
