Thank you Kwadwo; and the most of it all, there should “NEVER EVER” be club owners heading or leading the FA. Our juvenile teams are missing out in both continental and world football competitions because of these nonsense. The supporters must besiege the FA offices now to get rid of these greedy selfish idiots.

What do you mean? When Kwadwo Asamoah was playing for the Black Stars, was the team being run or managed by ex-footballers? That is stupid suggestion. We have to understand that we don't have the players to compete on the international front anymore, and the player we have care about their contracts than playing for the national team.

Ghana national teams, especially the youth teams, are not competitive exactly because of these club owners running Ghana football. They influence selection from their club, not necessarily the best players. That’s why no club or agency owner should be allowed in the GFA. I pray this should be clear to you.

We need a combination of ex footballers and football administrators who understand modern football organizing. Footballers and ex footballers still need degree holders to manage their contracts and businesses.

Which ex-players are you talking about?Personally I think all national teams shd be manage by Sports Council,who shd employ ex-players to manage them.Oliver Bierhoff used to play that role in Germany.

Kojo you are 109% right .What Prosper Addo knows abt a good coach ?You are looking for a good coach and Ace Ankomah is the who is doing that whiles sully,Gyan,Tony yeboah, Abedi ,Stephen Appiah etc are there to be given that task to do.
The committee is useless .
Please, your Excellency look into this Black Stars ISSUES VERY WELL and these FA people are disgracing you.
How possible FA president and Co runs various teams privately whiles serving at FA .This is complete conflict of interest.
His Excellecy don't let these FA guys use FIFA to threat so that they become untouchable.
Try to involve these old players to come and help and let these lawyers and academicians leave the seen.
Use Tony Baffoe and pump money into the game .
Let right people run the game .

I don’t know the obsession of these ex players with the team—— how should we entrust you with black stars when you have not even proven yourself at any level with club management…. Whiles your colleagues in Europe enroll in various programs and trainings, you people are just there and claiming entitlement—— when Nyantakyi dems lead the black stars 2006-2015, were they ex players??
Let’s stop this hypocrisy and shallow way of solving problems. If you think you’re an ex players who is good at managing, fix our hearts, kotoko, and the other clubs wand we will entrust the entire football community into your hands.
Let us think with this ex player that ex player this——

Let the ex players show us their track record of managing clubs and let’s see—— or they think management a clubs or national team is same as dancing to Jamma songs in camps!! Show us competence and not let’s give to ex players-
The Senegals didn’t give to ex players for the sake of it, they qualified based on competence.
If it’s about playing days alone, Abedi Pele should’ve been the FA boss, or Tony Yeboah——- Massa go bed

Being an ex-footballer doesn’t mean you can be a good football administrator. Two different jobs that require different skills.

Football management is different from playing football. You guys do not upgrade yourself yet because you played football in Europe, you think you cam easily manage our national teams. Start from somewhere and build your knowledge and experience in football administration before even thinking about a national team. Your colleagues elsewhere improve themselves through education to position themselves for opportunities. You folks only sit in Ghana here, eat heavy Banku and !

ask them a simple question: What are the 5 steps to solving a problem? or what are the effective methods for conflict resolution? Let's see if any of the ex-players can answer that.

Kwadwo its not about about appointing degree holders but appointing non criminals and people who really care about the develooment of sport, Where Ghana is at we need ex fooltballers to be FA chairmen, coaches etc and prove themselves, Ex players who really are solid and get their ish together don't want nothing to do with management of GFA,
