Can you say they are faking too, my good friend Stallion? Why not?

You see how you responded to this situation? Why couldn't you respond the same way when you read that Kevin wasn't going to be available for the national team? I'm not comparing these players break with Kevin's which we all know is different. What I'm saying is the question you just asked, why couldn't you ask the same question but termed Kevin as fake?

Now you see whom you should point fingers when a player is not available?

Habits don't hide. Where you try to hide a bad habit that is where the habit will birth forth even when there is a risk. GFA is into a habit of telling us something wouldn't happened but usually refuse to tell us why.

In Kevin's case, have you realized that they haven't even come out to say why Kevin couldn't make it to Ghana. They haven't come out to say whether the player was requested to appear for further assessment by the Black Stars Medical Team, like they did to him during our friendly in England, or not. Why are they keeping quite in this case whilst they know the country is in it to know the truth? The little I know is that when you are face with a situation, you respond according to your habit and GFA is doing so.

I'm not trying to bring this Kevin saga because our goal is to look at the task ahead and overcome. However, I want you to know that before you will blame someone, it is good to get the fact. You may be blaming the wrong person and leaving the one needs to be blamed instead.

Let us move on. With these three resting, I think it may be exhaustion. They would be okay in two days time top. Andrea has been playing too many games lately and I was expecting Muntari, Kwedwo Asamoah and the Champions League competitors to be among them instead of Essien and Asamoah Gyan but I guess I was wrong.

I wish them speedy recovery in whatever going on in their bodies.

What is your point Slimzay Kevin we all know he is habitual faker and so whatever he do or say we all received it with pit of salt hence The Stallion question about the three.

We are know Kevin as a habitual faker? Are you serious? We, Mr. N? Please don't generalize it because even those who think but doesn't know, doesn't have a single fact against Kevin over this issue.

That is my point!

Are you saying you don't know what KPB is doing to Ghana? Everybody knows it as clear as the nose on my face that the player is fake. Give us a break!

How can I give you a break when you have nothing to back up your accusation? How can I give you a break when you haven't given him the opportunity to present his case? How can I give you a break when you don't know what is going in the player's body but has condemned him?

You give him a break and I will do the same. Thanks.

In every department or simply in everything, assumptions are built based on patterns. There is a clear pattern that we have been seeing. This pattern doesn't apply to any other player.
If your worker comes to render account on your business, you will tolerate missing monies about a couple of times. But if the worker always comes to report missing money, then there is a pattern.
That is what I mean by my first question to you: "Are you saying you don't know what KPB is doing to Ghana?" There is a pattern, Mr. Slimzay.

I know Appiah will put Fatau in post. In fact, every reasonable coach will do that.
I have watched Ferguson, Wenger, and other excellent coaches; once they start winning with a set, they don't change till things start going bad. In our case, we have been winning all along.
Today, people like GH FUO, who hate Appiah, are calling for us to score 3 or 4 goals as if they have seen Ghana score 3 goals before.
If you ask them to tell you when Ghana ever score 3 goals in a match, they will mention a match in which Appiah was the coach. Lunatic!!!

It's now official that Eto'O will play for the Cameroon Republic, after he has been persuaded by Prez Biya to rescind his decision to retire. I got this from BBC, so don't crucify me!

"The three are; Asamoah Gyan, Andre Ayew and Michael Essien.

owever, Abdul Majeed Waris could also finish the training as he limped off the pitch to see the medical team"

LOL!! Why the semicolon? The word 'however' does not belong here, when you are trying to emphasize an earlier statement ('moreover' is more suitable).

"Three Black Stars players could not train on Tuesday as the Black Stars starts their preparation towards their last World Cup qualifying match against the Pharoah’s of Egypt at the Accra Sports Stadium."

'Black Stars starts"???? A disgrace at this stage.

"...against the Pharoah's of Egypt..."

Come on!!! First of all, it is 'Pharaoh' not 'Pharoah'!! Moreover, it has to be in the plural form, (Pharaohs').

Hey the match will be held in Kumasi, not Accra (ok, I know they were talking about the training session, lol!!) and this is not the last match.

The header is correct English. "The Black Stars" as the name of a soccer team is singular. The authour intentionally called the black stars simply "stars"

Kwami - US 10 years ago

The ambiguity stems from the fact that the writer used "stars" to means individual players (plural) but not "Black Stars" to mean a team of players(singular)

The header, on its own, is correct, if it stands alone as a phrase. In the header, the writer used the Black Stars as singular to match the verb begins. However, the writer was inconsistent in his/her use of the subject (Black Stars as singular) in the details, which therefore disqualified his/her grammar. He/she contradicted himself/herself when he/she made this statement "the Black Stars starts their preparation." That is wrong grammar.
The basis of the wrong grammar is that the writer faces a Subject-Verb confusion and inconsistency. The writer could say one of the following?

1. Stars begins/starts its preparation

or

2. Stars begin/start their preparation.

With any of the above statements the writer would have used correct grammar. In the first case, singular subject and the right verb are used throughout and in the second case, prural subject and the right verb are used throughout.

I hope this helps.

john boye is out after acting as captain in our match against japan.
i have noted from 1982 that captains, potential captains, number 10 jersey waearers, poster boys are proned to one mischap or the other. adolf armah as captain got injured, got replaced by ayew and he never could return. opoku nti in number 10 jersy suffered a protracted and inexplicable injury until he gave up the number 10 jersey and captains band before he made a re entry into the blackstars. captain's band was taken away from KA. then there was a long break to those mischaps. then in 2008 when some young players, like helegbe, kwadwo,afful, annan, ayew, made an entry into the blackstars, the thing resurfaced again. first stephen appiah as captain and number 10 jersey wearer could just not get his bearing. the captain john mensah's protracted break downs follwed. the deputy captain essien follwed. then kwadwo asamoah with the number 10 jersey followed. KVP as a poster boy resigned inexplicably and has been suffered a series of injuries.then muntari as acting captain follwed with an injury. then anthony annan as acting captained followed with an injury and lost her mum. then djan named captain lost her mum immediately. boye acted as captain then got injured. vorsah who looks like a captain in the future is injured.......
