It is for these poor folks, the duped, long-suffering fans and the numerous sports journalists some of whom I have mentioned here - journalists who get to work at the crack of dawn and stay late to bring up-to-date news to the public - that I have undertaken this "Number 12" assignment."

The damage is irredeemable [in this one]â€. Kweku Baako said on Metro TV.
