‘Juju’ escape gone wrong
In August, Eleven Wise faced VRA Youngsters in a Division Two game at Gyendu Park in Takoradi, Western Region.

As strange as it may sound, the fans rode the players onto the pitch with players feeling like equestrians.
Lo and behold, the equestrians were humbled at the end of the match losing 3-0.
