This is nonsense that Akwasi Appiah is allowed to coach Ghana after that poor performance. Which power can get Nyantakyi out of the GFA?

Moyo think carefully. Kwesi Appiah's team drew with eventual winner of the world cup.He almost beat them had Ayew passed the ball to
Asamoah Grand. Whatever happened at Brazil was not his fault. So leave him alone. He deserve the work when you compare him to that trash white man.

Now the ball is in GFA's court now.I hope Konadu And Tetteh apply too.If they decide to disregard all these people and bring in any foreign coach then we will take appropriate actions.

Those who have ears don't want to listen to the truth.Those who have eyes don't want to see and those who have mouth have shut it.All because of hate,envy,Corruption,propaganda and lies.Akwasi Appiah was cought in Crossfire of Players and the Government Problems,where the system failed him.Not because he was not a Good Coach.Black Stars should have beaten Germany,If the pleyers had play as a team and NOT SELFISHNESS.UNTILL WE TAKE POLITICS OUT OF SPORTS,THE VALUE WILL BE THE SAME,EVEN IF WE BRING BACK COACH AMBER OF KUMASI ASANTI KOTOKO 1960S FAME.HOPE EX-SPORTS MINISTER AYARIGA,KOJO BONSU AND YAMIN ARE AROUND TO WITNESS WHAT IS HAPPENING.

Almost doesn't count. We drew with Germany who won the tournament, so by your flawed logic, we won the consolation prize? Kwesi Appiah lacked confidence and technical capability. A few months before the WC he was now getting "coached" somewhere in the UK. He also from all indication, lacks the emotionally maturity to handle difficult players. If he is the best we can find, Ghana is once again doomed. The GFA has shown they are only interested in themselves.

I live in England and I have seen with my own eyes the Ghana flag flying on windows of white peoples' homes on match days during the world cup. We conceded a goal under one minute in our opening match through Appiah's tactical error. C. K. Gyamfi (German trained coach ) would have never started a young Christian Atsu. He never started a young Abedi Pele. Kwesi Appiah had Inkoom and Agyemang Badu who could play there or Essien in the middle and Rabiu on the right. All these would have prevented that first goal which Appiah admitted killed the game and probably made a nervous Jonathan Mensah make that last minute error. He is an average coach who drew with Sudan at home and couldn't get us past the first round in the W. C. If he was German he won't be back because in Germany first round exit is a failure.

We'll be doomed as a soccer nation if Akwasi Appiah is given the mandate to manage the Black Stars again.

He'll parade useless players like Harrison Afful and John Boye.

Moreover, he has no guts to handle the players.

Give the coaching job to Abdul Razak, with Mohammed Polo and Frimpong Manso assisting him.

Former Skipper Stephen Appiah should be the liason between the players and the management.

A word to the wise is enough!

This will be a big disaster! Kwesi Appiah is "weak" and unable to exert authority. He is always at the mercy of his players! With the Nyantekyi Wa All Stars alliance protege, Konadu still at post, the undermining that saw his fall the first time will always be there. Kwesi Appiah will be sacked again if he takes the job under these circumstances.

5A 5000 YEARS OLD SECRET JINNI FORMULA THAT UNLOCKS THE MYSTERIES OF WEALTH AND SUCCES “THE HIGH POWER JINNI MAGIC RING” A SECRET FORMULA unwritten until now, Remember the KINGS and their fabulous wealth? Even today the tomb of the KINGS yields spectacular quantities of GOLD, SILVER, and DIAMONDS AND OTHER PRECIOUS STONES. How did they ever amass these incredible riches? The ANSWER is given in this strongly HIGH POWER JINNI MAGIC RING. The wearer of this RING gets AUTOMATICALLY anything wants he in his life, for e.g. MONEY, FAME, SUCCESS, HAPPINESS, LOVE, POWER, LUCK and so on, they are all yours 17 you are wearing the HIGH POWER JINNI MAGIC RING. If you cannot see the light from where you stand perhaps you has been standing behind a pillar all this time. The appropriate time has now come for you to knock off aside the pillar which has been obstructing your success all these days and if you cannot knock off this pillar at least move out from behind it and see what all awaits you in this universe. Through the Gracious help of great GURU (SAGE) this hidden RING is brought out with a bold assert that no man has upon this world to pass away unannounced. Nobody is to bear a perpetual burden of privation and to court death as the ultimate resort beyond also suffering. This word of happiness is equally desired to be shared by all, but here are many who ping for it and in the long run fall a victim to relentless time not even able to make both the ends meet the other flourish happily in the lap of luxury and pleasure and roll on the bed of wealth. On the hold this GREAT RING after the performance of necessary ceremonies does not fall a prey to any serious malady, his life may be extended to one hundred years, fire, water and air cannot tarnish or destroy this person. He will never in any danger of calamity. Spirits, Demons, Evil of bad Luck, Evil spirits, Black magic will submit to him and never dare do any always pass their time in safety. The nine planets always smile upon them and even KINGs bear submission. This mysterious Ring is the best filler of all desire fear, Grief’s miseries etc. cannot appreciate to the door of the wearer: A person accounted with the RING may turn the council to see his opposes turn dump and loose the power of speech. It is the desire of the great GURU (SAGE) rather my behest that every person of means should hold this great RING which is permanent in stopping premature death. It is a river of vast wealth and reputation apenerial sources of fame and prosperity and the great amulet and charm of the world. Hold this Ring and make your life Glorious and great. Highly Efficacious. Life long and Durable. The cost of this power is too great but because on the special request of the world, I am charging all the devotees only a little amount of GH¢300.84.(+233547122212)

His ability to spot new talents is also a plus for him. Atsu, Solomon asante, afriyie acquah and co were all spotted by AA.
