Anger at Wa All Stars spills outside the ground

It has stopped being a mood in the stands and started being something organised. Boards can ignore a bad atmosphere for a long time; they cannot ignore this stage of it for very long at all.

Squad11 Aug 2031

A knee injury of the worst kind for Kwadwo Schlupp

99 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Wa All Stars lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Boardroom11 Aug 2031

The silence upstairs is getting loud at Wa All Stars

Nobody on the board has said anything against the manager, which is the point — they have stopped saying anything for him either.

Match11 Aug 2031

Wa All Stars are in real trouble now

Position 14, 15 points, and a fixture list with fewer games left in it than excuses. The arithmetic is not cruel yet, but it has stopped being kind.

Squad11 Aug 2031

Gladson Afful stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Gladson Afful and Wa All Stars agree another 3 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Kwadwo Schlupp 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 Wa All Stars this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Boardroom14 Jul 2031

The scrutiny sharpens at Wa All Stars

Nobody upstairs has said anything, which is the loudest thing they could do. Results buy silence in this game; the account at Wa All Stars is running low.

Match14 Jul 2031

Every point is an argument now for Wa All Stars

Position 14 and 15 points, and the table gets read bottom-up in this part of town. The calendar has stopped being a schedule and started being a countdown.

Market14 Jul 2031

Jeffrey 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 The request is on a desk at Wa All Stars, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad14 Jul 2031

Words at Wa All Stars training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Frank Abora Duku is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Squad14 Jul 2031

Emmanuel Partey pulls a muscle — 14 days out

The injury that keeps coming back, keeps being rushed back from, and quietly costs more careers than the dramatic ones. 14 days is the estimate; the honest figure depends on whether anybody is patient.

Squad14 Jul 2031

Abdul Sulemana signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Abdul Sulemana and Wa All Stars agree another 3 years.

Market14 Jul 2031

Heart of Lions expected to open talks for Nana Boakye

Both sides expect a conversation in the coming days. Wa All Stars will name a price, and everything after that is arithmetic.
