When you do proper investment you are sure of getting good dividend. What has the GFA done to the Black Stars?

I was in the North. I lived there for 4 years. Listen. It's true that majority of Southerners speak their local dialects. It's different in the North. It's English here, English there, English everywhere. Northerners are generally well educated, polite and full of love. Regrettably, we look down on these tribes because of poverty which is silly. Go to the North, live among them and have a feel of our ignorance and when you return to your base you will never ever look down on these lovable tribes again. Negative generalization smacks of stupidity and ignorance

I don't care what anyone says. I will forever hold Tamale in my best regards for the reception they offered our Blackstar after the childish tantrums by the Kumasi and Accra fans.I see Northerners in a different light now.

FIFA ranking is baseless and useless. How can a country that has once reached the quarter finals of World Cup be ranked so low? If we are talking about games won, Ghana has won more games than Cape Verde. And therefore what is the basis for the FIFA ranking. Have you watched where England has been for years even though they have not done very well in the last 12 months? Brazil still remains among the top 10 even when they are not doing well. FIFA ranking is useless and I would not lose sleep over this corrupt ranking

Watchman, ignorance will kill you, if you don't understand how a system works please keep your mouth shut and don't infect people with your ignorance. Ghana is not tge only country in Africa to have gotten to quarter finals of the world cup, besides that episode was in 2010 worl cup and don't expect FIFA to continue to use dead exploit to measure current ratings in 2014. Ghana played in not less than four AFCON after 2010 world cup, what has Ghana achieved in all the four AFCON if not failures upon failures even against minnow countries as Mali, Burkina Faso, DR Congo, Cape Verde and Zambia. FIFA's rankings are not static, they measure current form and not past dead achievements.

If failure is getting in the top 4 in the last 4 AFCONS can you name one other team that has done that!!

People need to be realistic. We have a successful team that is not dominant. As a result we get our expectations up and then they disappoint. At the end of the day, I believe this team operates better as an underdog.

we Nigerians are not bothered about Fifa ranking. We won afcon and got to the second round of the last world cup and we are still ranked lowly, Let FIFA continue to rank us lowly but our focus is always to do well and win competitions. I wonder what the countries that are ranked above Nigeria have won in a decade! We are not bothered. Our Team women Team is in the final of the AWC and we are sure thwy will win. The Super Eagles is being re-positioned to ensure the right set of Players are invited to the National Team. I know in the near future we will win more laurels. The bogus ranking is inconsequential to us

Ghanaman, between Nigeria and Ghana which of the two exhibit fear factor and inferiority complex towards each other, not even in football but in all sphere of life. Ghanaian feeling of inferiority complex is so glaring and sometimes very embarrassing to the average observer; probably for the past dirty life Ghanaians led in Nigeria that led to the tagged name "Omo Ghana". Come again Ghanaman.

Ghanaman, It is you Ghanaians that are inferior and are always exhibiting that trait. We employ you chaps in our Companies in Ghana and give you highly subsidized gas. You need to think before you write.
