From the old Chelsea guard of John Terry, Frank Lampard and Ashley Cole queuing up to urinate in one pot, to Gary Lineker’s refusal to shoot during pre-match for fear of wasting his potential goals in the game, to the Late Legendary Coach Sir Jones Attuquayefio’s white handkerchief, football and superstition have found a common ground.
Stories of superstition are widespread and not new to the football fraternity. However, the role of River Ankobra in the 5-year home invincibility of Karela United as told by the people of Anyinaase is an interesting one.
Karela United currently top of the Ghana Premier League table went 66 games unbeaten at home till the record was broken by Asante Kotoko.
Joy Sports' George Addo Jnr after spending four days in Anyinase, documented the story of the rich history of River Ankobra and its hand in the club’s impeccable 5 year unbeaten home record.
