On December 24, 2019, Gor Mahia's CEO Lordvick Aduda addressed concerns that coach Steven Polack would not return to the club after leaving for his native England for Christmas.
Polack had departed on Sunday evening, but Aduda clarified that the coach still had a two-year contract with the club and would be back on December 30.
"Polack will certainly be back and we are not worried about that. Why should it be an issue when the coach leaves to join his family for Christmas? He has a contract with us and unless he tells us otherwise, he is still our coach and we expect him back on Monday," Aduda said.
Before leaving, Polack had overseen K'Ogalo's 3-0 win over Kisumu All Stars in a Kenyan Premier League match, securing Gor Mahia's spot at the summit of the standings with three matches in hand.
Polack had also announced that his assistant Patrick Odhiambo would take charge of their league match against Posta Rangers at Narok Stadium on December 29.
