It is too late,my fellow journalists,because, wimpy Appiah has unfortunately been made the substantive coach already.The problem is with Appiah being made to coach black stars,instead of being fired.We don't need any technical director or advisor now.It is either wimpy and clueless Appiah is sacked or he is allowed to mess black stars again.

Why do we need a committee to appoint a technical adviser? What does Fred Crentsil and Fred Pappoe know about coaching? Francis Oti Akenteng is a trained coach but he is 19th century one with 19th century idea. Stop rewarding failures the guy failed have the balls to fire him and bring Marcel Desailly born Odenke Abbey and Stephen Appiah to handle the Black Stars.

Desailly will only be a Black Star coach over my dead body. He never played for the country. There are many coaches in Ghana and elsewhere. And there is no way any member of the GFA will be allowed to succeed Nyantakyi. The vote should come from all Ghanaians for an entirely new chief from outside the GFA. I can only agree with you with Stephen Appiah joining the GFA.

I heard Kwabena Yeboah say Kwesi Appiah will step down if a technical head is appointed. All who get a cut from Appiah's pay always defend the novice n apprentice coach whose selection has been try your luck

Why over your dead body? All those foreign coaches we paid millions to never put on a Black Stars' uniform to play for Ghana so why are you so against Desailly. He has invested a lot of money in Ghana, which is more than I can say for many Ghanaians outside the country. I for one would be delighted if he was made coach.

I thought it was about time we had our own head coach for the black stars so I supported AA from day 1.Even though we were winning our matches to qualify for the world cup, it was mainly try and error coaching and selection. Up till now Dr. AA does not know his regular stating 11 line up. He looked clueless at the touchlines not knowing how to read an ongoing game to make plan changes or the right substitution. He was and still a disgrace.

The dummy ass-kisser Kwasi Appiah keeps playing Jordan Ayew, Adomah, Rashid, Opare when real good defenders like Adusei and Afriyie Acquah are benched. Even main players like Boateng, Essien and Afful were benched in the most crucial match. He is trying to please Abedi Pele and Mahama but they still want him out. What a timid coach !!!

I wonder why GFA does not get it. The truth of the matter is that Akwasi Appiah is no coach. He was once a good player but he has no coaching credentials. His performance at the World Cup proves my point. A technical director is a welcome move to strengthen the oversight of the Black Stars. However, the coach must be fired or at best go for refresher coaching course.

Why AA must be FIRED!
1. If your son comes home with 1/9 on his reportcard from GIS. What will you do?...lol some beatings or wetin? GIS tuition is not cheap
2. If a tech director is brought onboard. Will the td be paid more than AA? We told aa to.Go for td know desailly, rijkaard becos even the best coaches in Scolari, lowe, van gaal were all taking td's to brasil. We advices AA just as we advised Plavi.
3. Will AA listen to a td who is getting more money than AA? No way!
4. Compared AA to claude renard. Renard was Ghana's facilities manager under claude Leroy. Since then, renard has moved on to win afcon trophy with zambia. AA has apprenticed under Leroy, Milo, plavi, gone on certification at prampram, liverpool, man city etc. Still,.Excuses nkoaa!
5. Every coach when hired is allowed to bring inboard their own staff. This is what is done everywhere. So why is this Gfa imposing a td on AA?

No Ghanaian who played international football for another country will ever be a Ghana coach. That will happen over my dead body. I will personally see to his elimination from this planet.

What has desailly done to you? Why do you hate him? He opted for France so what? If you like Ghana so much why don't you go and love there like desailly has..huh? U need to let go off grudges. You want God to forgive you of your sins but can't see it within urself to forgive others? Fyi: I was born in Canada but very privileged to live in Ghana. I have investments in Ghana. I love Ghana. U are a habitual fool. Ur family provided lsng for outsiders to.come and mine for gold and what do you have to show for? U speak as if aren't even a native Ghanaian born. Don't you know that desailly is Ghanaian born? He is mandated by the constitution to run for president of the land in case u are confused. Who innGhana can come close to what desailly has accomplished? Why can't you look beyond your selfish hatred for a successful person and look at what he can potentially do to elevate the sorry state of Ghana soccer. Are you happy with the present state of Ghana soccer? Huh? Ur kind needs to be exterminated from this world becos ur brain is of no use to development. Idiot! Can you boast of 1 skyscraper with all the gold and cocoa you speak of? Do you have any idea the countries I have financial investments in? U sit. There and spew crap on this forum like an uneducated imbecile. Now down ur head in shame. Only upscale minds are entertained in Canada not bufoon brains like you. You are a moron. ACCEPT that and find an antidote. I don't know where in the usa you decide. U prolly live innate ghetto.somewhere living off foodstamps with ur obamacare and parttime employment. Let me.educate you on how to become financially independent..so you can get out of that chlorine infested, lead, manganese infested drinking water, rat n roach infested, chem trail filled neighborhood you live in. These lead.to.crime and very soon you will be headed to jail.

Hahaha, born in Canada but write Ghana English. The dumbest lie I have ever heard from you. You don't even know who I am but you want to speak for me. Ofui, I know Canada more than you do. I have been visiting Canada since 1987 and still have an unfinished contract in Athabaska, Alberta. Judging from your words, you are poor in Toronto, either living in Jane and Finch, Chalkfarm or Kipling, or probably somewhere Landsdowne or the filthy area near Church Street in downtown. No wonder you see Canada as heaven because all you know before that were your filthy lagoons in Accra.

Desailly achieved highly, playing for France does not make him any less of a Ghanaian. Dual nationality frequently puts individuals in the same position of whether you love your mum or dad, the simple answer is love both equally in most normal circumstances. We will only develop as a nation when we accept that exposure to the wider world is what we need to grow.

You are talking bull crap. Barlotelli refused to play for Ghana, lets make him our National coach. You call this nonsense jealousy. How can a great player who chose to play for France instead of Ghana be made our coach? Why can't he be the coach of the French team? What kind of stage are we setting here? Ghanaians are like idiots who have explanation for every nonsense. Desailly will be the coach for Ghana over my dead body, I repeat.

Even if they have something to.offer, they still shouldn't be entertained? You are too stupid for school. Go live in a zoo amd learn common sense from a chimp. Desailly was even born in ghana! Just ban all Ghanaian from going overseas and seeking greener pastures elsewhere to better their lives. How many german born Americans play for usa?

You make a good point. The goal of picking a coach is to progress the national team. There shouldn't be discrimination. A competent coach is selected based on the fact he can do the job. If Desailly, Balotelli etc want to coach Ghana and they're competent to the job, who they played for is irrelevant! They'll have a lot to contribute.

Since Nyantakyi and Appiah are both cheats like Kwasi the white man, I will also name the cheat Mahama, Kwasi. Here is just one good innovative idea from Osei Tawiah to dummy Kwasi Mahama to help the economy. Mahama and his NDC should make a deal with the GFA and the textile companies in Ghana to produce home made designed textiles for fans of the Black Stars and other National Teams just like those for High Schools, Churches and other Organizations and the revenues could be used to help the team and the country. Dumb Mahama wants Ghanaians to patronize home made goods but can't think of any innovative ideas. I wanted to be an adviser to the Mahama to give him simple multiple ideas to revive the Ghana economy because he is too dumb so I will wait for Nana Addo. I will only give him this one for free.

The GFA and their coach need to be totally dissolved and the new executives chosen by a thorough Ghanaian public survey not by themselves or by fake Mahama. Mahama should take advantage of the massive support for the Natioanal Teams to help the economy. He needs to prop up genuine innovative ideas to help the economy. I can see them everywhere. By the way I don't own a textile industry in Ghana. They belong to Mahama's Ghana and he is the one who is crying for home made patronage not me

Why select members of the rotten GFA mafia to find a suitable technical director - we do not need a technical director, dissolve and fire all the GFA administrators. They are no good. We have more competent people in the country and elsewhere to fill their positions.

How many mistakes do we have to make before getting it right for once. All members of the current GFA should be relieved of their posts. Please, clean the whole GFA house - they are all mafiosos.
