A knee injury of the worst kind for Seth Paintsil
24 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Ashanti Gold lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Edwin Gyimah says Ashanti Gold went back on their word
“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Ashanti Gold turn down Inter Allies for Patrick Sulemana
The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

WAFA take the points off Ashanti Gold
Beaten 1‑2, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.
