Felix Adjei hands in a written request
“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Hasaacas can pretend not to have heard.

Words exchanged at Hasaacas
Rivio Ayemwenre and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Eurichano Setila wants to go home
“I have tried. I have really tried, and every day I wake up in the wrong place.” Nobody at Hasaacas can coach that out of a man, and nobody there is pretending to.

Christian Paintsil steps up from the Hasaacas academy
There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Christian Paintsil has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

Eurichano Setila 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.
In brief
- Match Hasaacas and Heart of Lions take a point apiece
