The Liberty Professionals Chronicle

A knee injury of the worst kind for Albert Schlupp
153 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Liberty Professionals lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Baba Schlupp asks to leave Liberty Professionals
“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.
Match12 Sep 2026
Nobody could stop scoring
6 goals. Both benches spent the second half looking at each other rather than at the pitch. Purists will complain about Liberty Professionals and New Edubiase United in equal measure; everybody else had a wonderful time.

A bad afternoon for Liberty Professionals against New Edubiase United
2‑4 to New Edubiase United, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Christian Asamoah falls out with a teammate over standards
The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Ninety minutes of Felix Ayew at his very best
Marked 8.11. Players have careers without a single afternoon like this in them, and he has just had one in front of everybody at Liberty Professionals.

Nobody could get near Jonathan Paintsil
Successful dribbles: 17. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

The manager makes an example of Richard Afriyie
“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Patrick Ofori dropped after a run of poor form
The one version of being left out a player cannot argue with, and the one he takes worst. Somebody else has been better and the team sheet says so, in public, every week until it changes.
