Yaw Danso 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 Heart of Lions can pretend not to have heard.

No end in sight to Heart of Lions's wait for a win
7 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Heart of Lions has to find a result from somewhere.

Bechem United take the points off Heart of Lions
Beaten 0‑2, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Ebenezer Abban 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.

Ernest Gyan faces the questions
“We were not good enough today and I am not going to dress it up.” Ernest Gyan after 0‑2, in the tone of a man who knows the next question and does not intend to answer it.

Seedorf Asante is still paying for one afternoon at Heart of Lions
Nobody will confirm this and nothing else explains the last month of selections. A costly error buys a player a period of being second choice that is always longer than the error was.

Michael Ephson: “I am not a substitute”
“I have done everything asked of me in training and it has not changed a thing on a Saturday.” The most familiar complaint in football, and one Heart of Lions will have to answer with minutes or with a transfer.
In brief
- Player ratings An afternoon Seedorf Asante will want back
- Looking ahead A reunion for Chauncy Freeman
