    They have to sell their papers using sensation

  • CARDINAL 11 years ago

    bet you Appiah stadium might have been right and it was not only the Players who were fucking prostitutes but Painstil might have procured prostitutes for some of these GFA Officials.

    Why is it the GFA that is bailing Pain ...

    This guy was waving the Isreali flag when Ghana won a world cup match.

    Neating women is never a clever behaviour.

    The guy does not have any inner believe, he is just a bully and has inferior disposition.

  • Mr.N 11 years ago

    GFA has no business in this, what is wrong with GFA this is private matter and John Paintsil as a private citizen has the same right as any Ghanaian citizen. Would GFA Sannie Daara and the so-called high profile members of th ...

    I'll tell one thing that I know for certain about this author. He has no courage. A true coward if ever you saw one. He's ready to be abusive to others under a author-less comment.

    If she is ok then why she went to hospital.Stupid fools.

  • Mundus 11 years ago

    I now beleive what is said about the GFA, they behave like a cartel. Whether the beating was severe or light, there was a beating. And the GFA should not be shielding a wife beater. He should be axed from the blackstars.

  • Gye Nyame 11 years ago

    Instead of getting Paintsil help, they are trying to white wash it. The beating must have been serious enough for the wife to have gone to the hospital for a check up. GFA is in some sort of denial, they deny the prostitution ...

    What do you expect? GFA to say the truth? You lie bad. If the GFA comes out with the truth, then possibly he must be sanctioned by the GFA and the team he plays for. Here, money will not change hands.

  • Arthur Haye 11 years ago

    Yes you are right. So far as she went to the hospital for check up, something terribly happened. If it were in USA here, Paintsil would not have got officials to shield him, because this is a big assault case. Why did his wif ...

    How can this guy chase beat his wife to the extent that she jumped over a wall, yet you are trying to shield him. The officials of GFA should be charged for trying to abet crime. This guy should be out of black stars.

    Sad though but no one is above the law. Why should GFA be unhappy about media reports. If its true Painstil should apologise to the nation and young people of this country and his many admirers.

  • MARCUS AMPADU 11 years ago

    John Paintsil still plays for Hapoel Tel Aviv, the charges against him as a wife beater affects his position as a player in the team and his right to work in Israel. Will like to hear Hapoel Tel Aviv's take in this matter.
