Match4 Dec 2032

Nowhere to hide for Berekum Chelsea

0‑6 against Hearts of Oak, and no complaints that would survive the replay. The manager spoke about character afterwards; the terraces used shorter words.

Squad6 Dec 2032

A one-man rearguard from Michael Acquaye

There were 6 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.

Match4 Dec 2032

4 matches without a win for Berekum Chelsea

The run now stands at 4, and the questions being asked around Berekum Chelsea are no longer polite ones.

Squad6 Dec 2032

Seidu Abubakar 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 Berekum Chelsea this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match4 Dec 2032

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 Berekum Chelsea and Hearts of Oak in equal measure; everybody else had a wonderful time.

Squad6 Dec 2032

Words at Berekum Chelsea training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Kwesi Sorotu Badori 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.

Boardroom6 Dec 2032

Nobody left the Berekum Chelsea dressing room in a hurry

The door stayed shut a long time after the final whistle. What was said in there is between them; whether it worked is between them and Saturday.

The dugout6 Dec 2032

The manager’s verdict

“That is on me. I pick the team and I picked wrong.” Managers say that when they mean it and when they need to be seen to, and after 0‑6 Interim Coach left the room before anybody could ask which.

The dugout6 Dec 2032

Samuel Djiku 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.

Squad20 Sep 2032

Words exchanged at Berekum Chelsea

Kwesi Sorotu Badori 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.

Market20 Sep 2032

Afriyie Essien steps up from the Berekum Chelsea academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Afriyie Essien 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.

Market20 Sep 2032

Berekum Chelsea promote Gladson Owusu from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Gladson Owusu has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

Market20 Sep 2032

Berekum Chelsea promote Mohammed Acquah from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Mohammed Acquah has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

Transfer targets20 Sep 2032

The window shuts on the Mohammed Yahaya deal

Berekum Chelsea ran out of time with Medeama. The paperwork was open when the deadline passed, and a transfer that was almost done is now a transfer that never happened.

Match18 Sep 2032

Berekum Chelsea see off Great Olympics

Three points for Berekum Chelsea, 1‑0 the final word against Great Olympics in a contest settled by the finer margins.

The dugout20 Sep 2032

No hiding place for Kamaldeen Kudus

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Kamaldeen Kudus, and the manager let it.

Player ratings20 Sep 2032

Kwesi Sorotu Badori was on a different afternoon to everybody else

8.12. 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.
