Real Tamale United will go down in the record books as the only side to be relegated from the Ghanaian top-flight without winning a single game if they lose on the final day against AshGold.

The Northern Lions have failed to clinch victory in 29 games as they have drawn 5 and lost the rest conceding as many as 71 goals and scoring just 19 times – an average of 0.65 per game.

The Ghana Football Association’s Disciplinary Committee docked them 5 points and 6 goals to compound matters amid financial sanctions following their fixing of two unqualified players against battling Berekum Arsenal.

RTU returned to the Ghana Premier League after two seasons in the wildness but a mixture of financial crisis, managerial inefficiencies leading to a string a poor performances confirmed their demotion just some few games into the second half of the season.

Their exploits in the season has set a new Ghanaian record.

No club in the top-flight has suffered relegation with such a record.

Power FC is the only club in recent memory to have accrued least number of points after collecting 18 points and won just five games.
