This amount of money as a single person's salary per month makes me sick. Guess what I was given as retirement benefits for serving the country for 41 years. Even this money was contributed by me over the years.

Why are you blocking his holidays now? He has been on vacation since we hired him and GFA and the Sports ministry have done nothing to compel him to do his job.We are all aware that the players are slowing down by age or injuries and we have been begging Coach Grant to work in connection with our local league to recruit and groom the players for the next generation blackstars.Instead he has been vacationing in Europe under the guise of recruiting players there.If Appiah or any Ghanaian coach had taken a quarter of the time off that Grant has taken I am quite sure idiot in chief Vandapauye and his stooges at GFA wouldn't have stood for it.It is enough to know that we couldn't even beat Ugandan locals in our own back yard.

Vacation?? This is the issue. Big salary for foreign coaches. He is taking the GFA for a ride.

You guys said you'll not disclose his salary; why now?This is very bad and have made the coach very vulnerable. We don't need this at time of the World Cup campaign.How much is Asamoah Gyan earning a week? Which team in Ghana can pay him?Going in for a high-profile coach has its financial implications so we should be civil enough to keep certain details from public domain.

We want transparency,so what is wrong in disclosing that old coach's salary? Abi do you also get your share from his salary? Please do not let us descend on you like a storm.

High profile coach my ass. What is this sick looking piece of a coach going to do for Ghana. The man is already a waste of space. He sent to rookies to a penalty shoot out to ruin our chances of getting the AFCON title and has only been beating cheap teams since. Ghanaians are too foolish to pick a sick man as their coach.

Ghana's qualification to Russia in 2018 seems in jeopardy for a number of reasons. The foremost reason is that public treatment of difference. Press freedom without circumspection tantamount to indiscipline. Danger is looming as we see differences between the coach and the FA is played in the public. Lastly, it seems that Avram Grant is toying with the FA. He has lived abroad since his engagement as the coach of Ghana. He is often seen on TV as a pundit. To seek holiday when Ghana is preparing to play Egypt in Nov is not kosher.

I would have no problem with Grant being in England if he was recruiting binationals like other coaches. Other countries' coaches get a binational every 6 months it seems. Guys like Jung should have been secured, Kwateng should be in the system, a guy like Inaki Williams should still be on the radar. If he is uninterested in local players at least he could recruit binationals like other coaches. He is uninterested in working in general, that is a problem. Other teams are recruiting binationals at a strong rate, eventually it will be hard to keep up without new talent.

This coach only work once in three months. Tell me how many times does the black stars play in a year. His work is easy and doesn't deserve that much. Players play week in week out including mid week and training sessions everyday. Coaching a national team is far easier than coaching club.

In today's CAF you must be a good recruiter, unlike in EPL where the front office can sign good players if your club has money. Grant has not been nearly as effective (almost completely ineffective) in recruiting as his african coaching counterparts, makes it difficult to justify his salary relative to coaches at similar positions in other african nations.

This blockade will not change anything for Ghana. Egypt will be triumphant at the game in Cairo, where Ghana soccer slump will begin; I'm objective rather than patriotic. The Egyptians are way ahead of Ghana.
