Collins Sichenje

Collins Sichenje is a centre back who has defended in several football cultures before arriving in England, moving through Scandinavian, Baltic and Balkan football rather than settling early in one system. That range has given him a defender's education most his stage do not get.

Collins Sichenje, A Defender Well Travelled

A Kenya international arrives at Charlton having already tested his defending across four different European countries.

Sichenje's path through European football has taken him from Kenyan football into leagues in Sweden, Finland and Serbia, each one testing something different in a centre back, his pace, his strength, and how he organises a back line. That variety tends to build defenders comfortable adjusting to a new system rather than leaning on one method alone. His form along the way drew interest from clubs in Spain's top division, a sign scouts rated what they saw.

English football brings its own test again, with a faster pace and more direct physical battles than some of the leagues he has played in before. Adapting to that quickly, rather than needing months to settle, is the test every overseas defender faces on joining the Championship. How fast Sichenje copes with that pace will decide how this move is remembered.

Match Bingo Game Modes Explained

There are three game types on Match Bingo and they behave less alike than they sound. Live Games follow a real fixture as it's played. Bingoals swaps the fifteen events for fifteen teams and needs every one of them to score. Quick Games run every few minutes on football from last season, so there's nothing to wait for.

Does a New Signing Change Anything on Your Match Bingo Card?

Deadline day comes and goes and your card stays exactly as it was. Match Bingo cards are built from things that happen in a match, goals and corners and fouls, rather than from the players who make them happen. No name on a teamsheet reaches a single square. Here's what a signing does change, and what it doesn't.

Is Match Bingo Safe? Licensing, Fair Play and Player Protection

Two things usually sit behind that question: whether the company is real and regulated, and whether the game itself can be got at by somebody sharper than you. Match Bingo is operated by RTSB Limited under Gambling Commission account 51467, which takes about a minute to check. The second answer is duller: there's nothing to press.

What Is Football Bingo?

A card holds fifteen things that can happen in a football match, and each square marks itself the moment its event happens in the fixture you've chosen. You buy before kick-off, then you go and watch the game. Complete a horizontal row of five before anybody else and you take the fixed prize for that tier.
