No matter where BS meets Pharaoh, BS is going to Brazil. FiFA is disappointed with the result of the first match; they wished no team from Sub-Sahara region made it to Brazil.

SUPER SPORT DEAL FOR GPL TELEVISION COVERAGE
HOW DO U SELL THE LEAGUE RIGHTS TO SUPER SPORT FOR $700,000 A YR, NOW GFA SAYS ITS 2.1 MILLION?. JESUS CHRIST, THIS GUY IS TOO STUPID TO BE GFA HEAD. SUPERSPORT WILL NOW SELL SOME OF THE GAMES TO TV COMPANIES/NATIONS WHO ARE INTERESTED IN BUYING/WATCHING GH LEAGUE GAMES. IS 700,000 DOLLARS A GOOD ENUFF FIGURE FOR GFA N OUR LEAGUE CLUBS? LOOK AT THE POPULARITY OF GH SOCCER IN AFRICA N ALL OVER THE WORLD. ON WAT BASIS/CRITERIA DID SUPERSPORT N GFA REACH TO DECIDE ON THIS MEAGRE FIGURE? LOOK, GH LEAGUE IS NOT LIKE THE TANZANIAN OR MALAWI LEAGUE TO COMMAND SUCH LOW FIGURES. WE HAVE MADE A NAME FOR OUR BRAND OF SOCCER OVER THE YRS.
FOLKS, THIS IS WHAT THE PREMIER LEAGUE IN UK DOES....LOOK AT HE SUPERSPORT FIGURES FOR NAIGERIA AND KENYA? WHY ARE WE GETTING LESS MONEY, LESS GAMES PER WEEK COMPARRED TO KENYA AN NAIJA?
PRIMITIVE GH, GFA...U SEE $2.1 MILLION for 3 yrs FROM SUPERSPORT, U LOSE UR REASONING. WHEN U COULD HVE GOTTEN MORE. GYIMI MPANIN TOTO GFA! KENYA N NAIJA ARE GETTING 10 TIMES MORE!
South African satellite channel SuperSport International has agreed to pay in excess of R2-billion (approximately US$285-million) for the TV, mobile and internet rights for the country’s
Premier Soccer League (PSL) over the next five years. SuperSport has signed a US$2.5 million deal with the Football Association of Zambia (FAZ) to secure the broadcasting rights to the country's top soccer league.
The deal will run from 2011 to 2013. Nigeria's top domestic soccer league has secured a four-year broadcast deal with SuperSport reported as worth US$34 million in total.
The Ugandan Super League (USL),has inked a US$5 million, 5year broadcast deal with South African-based sports channel SuperSport.
South African pay-TV operator SuperSport has agreed a broadcast deal with the Football Kenya Federation (FKF), the deal will see SuperSport provide live coverage of 20 matches from Kenya’s
second division, starting with Wednesday’s match between Nakumatt FC and Moyas FC, until the end of the current season. The Tusker Premier League, the highest level of club soccer in Kenya,
has signed a three-and-a-half year deal with Puma. The deal, which is worth US$117,000 overall, will see Puma sponsor and supply match balls used in the league. "The partnership between KPL and Puma will cost Kshs ten million over three and a half years.
“Each team will be provided with balls while Puma will gain on pitch side branding and as well on the broadcasting point of view SuperSport will be able to capture the brand.”
East Africa Breweries Limited's (EABL) Tusker brand has been announced as the new title sponsor of the Kenyan Premier League (KPL). The multi-year agreement, worth US$1.96 million overall,
sees the top flight of soccer within Kenya officially known as the Tusker Premier League for the next three years.
Kenyan Premier League (KPL) sides Mathare United and Ulinzi Stars have announced new sponsorship deals with Puma and Metropolitan Life respectively.
Mathare United's one-year apparel deal with Puma sees the German sports manufacturer supplying the soccer team with boots, replica merchandise to sell to fans as well as playing and training kit.
The combined value of Puma's contribution will total US$34,000. Meanwhile KPL champions Ulinzi Stars, a soccer team made up of the country's military servicemen, have signed a US$17,000 deal with Metropolitan Life Insurance.
The Zambian Super Division is also sponsored by MTN Zambia, which in June announced a 2.4 billion kwacha (about US$480 000), as their sponsorship package this year for both Chipolopolo and the top-flight league with the winner of the championship race getting about US$50 000.
With Dynamos collecting US$75 000, for winning the Premiership title last year under the sponsorship deal between the PSL and Delta Beverages through their Castle Lager brand, it appears the domestic Premiership is still, to some extent, better sponsored compared to the one in Zambia.
The Kenyan Premier League is operated and run as a private limited company incorporated in October 2003 under the Companies Act of Kenya. It is fully owned and managed by the 16 member clubs with each club being a shareholder
KPL and SuperSport signed a $5.5 million four-year partnership deal, the biggest football sponsorship in the country and in the region. The deal
which is expected to expire in 2011 will see a renegotiated contract double that amount to $11 million.
WHITE JERSEY!
HERE IS MY SUGGESTION.
THIS WHITE SHIRT MUST HAVE A COLLAR. THE JERSEY MUST ALSO HAVE LONG BLACK, TINY STRIPES THROUGHOUT FOR BOTH THE SHIRT AND SHORTS AND WHITE HOES. THE GFA LOGO MUST MUST BE EMBEDDED INSIDE A HUGE BLACK STAR ON THE LEFT/CHEST AREA.
HERE IS MY SUGGESTION. THE RED N YELLOW JERSEY SHOULD BE MAINTAINED, BUT WITH WHITE SHORTS. IF IN DOUBT, YOU CAN CONTACT OZWALD BOATENG IN THE UK FOR ASSISTANCE. GFA, DONT BE LAZY AND MEDIOCRE.
IF YOU PUT MORE WORK IN AN APPEALING JERSEY/KIT. IT WILL BE REPLICATED IN THE SELLING OF THESE JERSEYS.

Sed Blatter and that CAF Chief Hatayou (?) must both be there together with a fair size contingent frm FIFA and CAF. If they stay away then GFA and the Government of Ghana must demand reparations from FIFA and CAF.

Everybody knows how angry the Egyptians are at their leaders and also for losing so badly. They are a charged fuse ready to blow up and all they need is just an event to add to their anger and frustration. FIFA and CAF must think like sensible human beings and stop this nonsense of Arabs and Francophone envy and jealousy against Anglophone Africa, especially Ghana and Nigeria.

I did not bother to read your submission because you keep on using block letters that makes it hard to read and understand anything you write here even though I have told you several time about NETIQUETTE rules that discourage using ALL block letters to write on internet. After you have written your submission try to read it and compares your to those that use small letters and see how reading yours is difficult.

Having said that, I told you FIFA will not change the venue. The only option is CAMPING our players in ETHIOPIA or JORDAN.

I see Ghana qualified and already in Brazil.It will marvel you to know or see how Ghana is going to beat them on their own soil
Jehoshaphat and for that matter the whole Ghana( the playing body and every football loving Ghanaian) approached this match with fear
Even the most optimistic person has some doubt how Ghana was going to survive the Egyptians.That is why prophet TB joshua intelligently predicted predicted a draw because to the natural mind the best Ghana could have done was a draw or one goal advantage. If Ghana could not beat Zambia more than two goals advantage how could they beat Egypt five goals difference?
You see the difference FIVE is the number for GRACE and it is GRACE that made the difference Human Effort did little .The Bible says physical exercise profitteth little but GODLINESS is profitable unto all things
In seeing and hearing Goliath all Israel were at fear but thank God they had David they did not know as Moses had a rod or stick he did not know
How many little stones did David take?
IS IT NOT FIVE?
And he said you come to me with sword and spear but i come to you in the NAME OF THE LORD (that is the first leg) and the second leg I am going to use your own sword to cut off your head .DAVID KILLED GOLIATH WITH ONE OF THE FIVE STONES in the first leg
In the second leg Ghana Black Stars(DAVID) are going to cut off the Pharaohs of Egypt(Goliath)'s head with their own sword.
NOTE: All Ghanaians feared and this fear brought us to our knees before our God and the battle became the LORD'S.
THE LORD WILL DO IT AGAIN!!! Let us not be complacent and pray as we prayed in the first match.
Many do not know the power of the tongue in prayer in the name of theLORD
I have leaked one secret from Heaven to you
God bless you if you will practice it AMEN

The FIFA rules have its control on the events of the games but not on the citizenry constitution rule of law governing the Presidency of a nation like Ghana. FIFA rules and contracts is not above the GHANA CONSTITUTION. In such cases of security and preventions, the governing body of cause has the right to do the correct measures in protecting our citizens, supporters, GFA body and any Ghanaian legal or illegal in that place. Yes this is a football event with an uneven situation of a nation in the state of discords, political turmoil. Egypt was great in the past but turning regime is spoiling the situation with murdering, demonstrations and uncertainties. Will you personally send your family to Egypt for a vacation whiles unrest continues?
I want to tell you that FIFA rules is not above the rules and constitution of a nation when our citizens, footballers, GFA staff is afraid in conjunction to a brutalized political nation where the government is in a mess. This is where our concerned President Mahama needs to exercise lobbying his authority in support to request a definite change of venue. How many jet fighters can Ghana use to defend our supporters in case a pandemonium lost in control in Egypt? This is why no European nation will go to such places of inconveniences but prevention is better than had I know is at last. Yet we pray nothing happens but God has given us wisdom in preventive measures and issues. So don’t tell me to keep President Mahama out of this. FIFA does not own the rights of Ghanaians Constitution.

Ghana will not run away from where ever the match would be played. All we are asking for is a safe and soccer friendly atmosphere to display once again our soccer powers. I expected FIFA come out and say we have done a thorough investigation in Cairo and found it to be safe to play the return match. Not because of what the Egyptian government has said. We all know that Egypt is in political crisis and the government is not in total control of affairs. Regardless of the situation, we are not afraid. we shall whip them again in front of their Army commander

FIFA feels it's too powerful and even is above a few human lives!

GFA skip this match n let them go to hell! What is the worse outcome?

1. Let them aware 3pts-3goals n we still qualify

2. Show their carelessness to the whole world n let them have a football game / tournament - why give a damn?

3. Show Ghana cares about their fans n people and going forward they should think about sending any team into severely troubled areas.

Lets use this opportunity to send a message to this hopeless and corrupt money hungry fiends at FIFA, the World Cup is not worth more than human lives!!!

Why is such a corrupt org so powerful and acts all the time like it is the best thing since slice bread anyway?

The qualification of Gha itself is a DONE deal, we all know, but damn it, we are also talking about the lives of the fans here for Christs sake!,,

Whether there will be violence or not is not important, this hopeless FIFA org shd themselves hv had enough sense to send a message to all nations, " u have the least instability in your country, we done play there, ( and they should be able to define a nation in instability - FIFA bums with no education - ).

These guys galivanting as managers of the game we have all come to love just make me sick, what hopeless individuals!

NOW THE NEXT THING IS FOR EGYPT TO ADOPT EVERY DIRTY TRICK POSSIBLE TO TRY TO INTIMIDATE, FRUSTRATE AND ELIMINATE GHANA. MY SUGGESTION IS THIS, OUR TEAM SHOULD NOT ARRIVE IN CAIRO FOR MORE THAN A WEEK PRIOR TO THE GAME DAY, AT MOST 48 HOURS SHOULD BE OKAY. FOOT SOLDIERS MUST BE IN CAIRO AT LEAST 2 WEEKS TO THE MATCH TO MONITOR AFFAIRS ON THE GROUND. LASTLY, OUR BOYS MUST DENY EGYPT ANY EARLY GOAL THAT COULD BOOST THEM UP. AND IN THE END, THEY SHOULD LEAVE EGYPTIANS TO WEEP.

The Blacks Stars has the psychological edge over the Egyptians. They are not over yet with the humiliation they got. They will be nervous going into this game. The Black Stars should be calm and very calculative. No mistakes but be physical. Its going to be a very physical game through out. But if the black stars play them like in Kumasi they will win by 3-2
The black stars should put the security issue out of their minds and just bent on whipping some asses. These sun niggers better not touch any Ghanaian player or the fans. They will be eliminated from the world football body. And I don,t think they will let that happen to them. We have to beat them to proof a point. Egypt will never beat Ghana again. Ask Zambia and they will tell you who the black stars are. Nothing is stopping the black stars from going to Brazil. Ghana has the most talented football players in the world now. If the current group of players want to beat any team in the world they will do it with easy.

Black Stars should concentrate on winning the game. I believe they should just play their game, avoid mistakes near their penalty box and also play their sweet flowing man to man passes to avoid physical contact with the Egyptians and avoid unnecessary fouls and they will win. They should forget about the venue and just psych themselves. The referee may be influenced but to score 6-0 is not an easy task to achieve. they have the psychological edge and they should capitalise on it. An early goal and their attacking game should win the day. Good luck boys.
