Match21 Nov 2026

The wait goes on for WAFA

13 without a win now, and the ground has developed the special quiet of a crowd that expects the worst. One scrappy 1-0 would cure most of it; that is the maddening part.

Squad23 Nov 2026

Felix Acquah breaks a bone — 73 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 73 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Player ratings23 Nov 2026

Lebohang Lesako runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 30. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Match21 Nov 2026

WAFA leaking at the back

8 matches, two or more conceded in every one of them. Sides that create as much as this can live with it for a while. Nobody lives with it forever.

Squad23 Nov 2026

Lebohang Lesako in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at WAFA this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad23 Nov 2026

Qudus Akanni 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.

Match14 Nov 2026

No end in sight to WAFA's wait for a win

12 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at WAFA has to find a result from somewhere.

Squad16 Nov 2026

Felix Acquah breaks a bone — 80 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 80 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Match14 Nov 2026

WAFA taken apart

3‑6 to New Edubiase United, and it was every bit as bad as the number suggests. There are defeats you argue about and defeats you apologise for; this was the second kind.

Squad16 Nov 2026

A one-man rearguard from Ernest Acquah

There were 8 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Player ratings16 Nov 2026

Both of them Andre Ofori's — 9.09

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 9.09, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Match14 Nov 2026

WAFA are shipping goals every week

Two or more conceded in each of the last 7 matches. It is not one mistake repeating itself, which would be the easier thing to fix; it is a different one every week.

Market16 Nov 2026

Kwame Essien puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at WAFA, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad16 Nov 2026

Tempers go at WAFA

Qudus Akanni was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Match14 Nov 2026

9 goals as WAFA and New Edubiase United go for it

Defending was optional and nobody took up the option. 9 goals between WAFA and New Edubiase United, and not one of the people who paid to be there will ask for the money back.

Squad9 Nov 2026

Felix Acquah breaks a bone — 87 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 87 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Match7 Nov 2026

The wait goes on for WAFA

11 without a win now, and the ground has developed the special quiet of a crowd that expects the worst. One scrappy 1-0 would cure most of it; that is the maddening part.

Match7 Nov 2026

WAFA are shipping goals every week

Two or more conceded in each of the last 6 matches. It is not one mistake repeating itself, which would be the easier thing to fix; it is a different one every week.

Player ratings9 Nov 2026

Nobody could get near Qudus Akanni

Successful dribbles: 22. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad9 Nov 2026

Ernest Acquah in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at WAFA this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad9 Nov 2026

Lebohang Lesako 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.

Squad9 Nov 2026

Qudus Akanni gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Player ratings9 Nov 2026

Daniel Baba was on a different afternoon to everybody else

8.32. There are performances a supporter describes to somebody who was not there and cannot quite convey; this was one, and the number does not help either.

Match7 Nov 2026

No time for Inter Allies to settle

The goal that put Inter Allies ahead was still being replayed on the concourse when WAFA equalised, 3 minutes later. Leads are only worth what you do with them.

Match12 Sep 2026

A hiding for WAFA

Beaten 1‑6 by Medeama, and beaten everywhere it matters. The inquest starts on the training pitch on Monday morning.

Market14 Sep 2026

Lebohang Lesako asks to leave WAFA

“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.

Market14 Sep 2026

WAFA turn down Heart of Lions for Daniel Ayew

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Squad14 Sep 2026

Tempers go at WAFA

Nzube Chukwurah was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Match12 Sep 2026

Nobody could stop scoring

7 goals. Both benches spent the second half looking at each other rather than at the pitch. Purists will complain about WAFA and Medeama in equal measure; everybody else had a wonderful time.

Squad14 Sep 2026

Lebohang Lesako 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.

Squad14 Sep 2026

6 past Ernest Acquah

Whether it was the goalkeeper or the ten in front of him is the argument that will fill every conversation in town this week. 4 saves does not settle it either way.

Boardroom14 Sep 2026

Doors closed at WAFA

The music was off and the showers ran late. What was said in that dressing room stays there, but Saturday will publish the minutes.

Market14 Sep 2026

WAFA and Qudus Akanni are talking past each other

“There is a gap, and pretending there is not helps nobody.” Neither side has moved, and the calendar is working for exactly one of them.

In brief
