    Kingston is in and nobody can take him out till he proves his opponents right with bad performance.

  • POW@ Appiah 4 Brazil.com. 10 years ago

    The problem is not Olele being 35 years old and that we've not seen any goalkeeper that old yet. Kingson himself has lied for years about his age. Even in CAF, there are three different ages they have on their records for Ole ...

  • ATSU, HO 10 years ago

    CAF GIVES KINGSON'S AGE AS 35 WHY DO YOU SAY HE IS 35. DIDI YOU SEE HIM PLAY FOR OLYMPICS IN 1988, YOU MEAN HE WAS 10 YEARS OLD? WELL SOMETIMES I DOUBT IF ...

  • Just Think about WAS & NOW 10 years ago

    GFA should let Joseph Carr whom the Egyptians are very afraid of in the goal-poles keep the poles for Ghana BECAUSE he was Good.
    wooooooow!

  • Coach Edusei 10 years ago

    Dear Sir; Can I call u the 'First Ghanaian'? I will admonish you to rest your soul. Age has nothing to do with World Cup Qualifiers. The World will not go down on its knees if Ghana should lose this encounter. We are fed with ...

    When we are talking about dependability, Kingston is not the one to call. That is a fact. Before the eyes of all of us he allowed some cheap goals in his net and that was the reason why he wasn't called throughout the qualify ...

  • POW@ Appiah 4 Brazil.com. 10 years ago

    We talking about 40 plus here and you are mentioning 40 maximum. This is a pure MDFSKK "me da fom' sere kwaa kwaa" and that's the Ghanaian version of laugh out loud.

    Please add 8 years to that and give me an example. Haaa ...

  • Johnny-K 10 years ago

    Kingston is only 35 years old, heh? Do you also realize that he has allowed 7 goals in four mathches in the Cyprus league? What happens when better strikers go at him? The man used to be good, and did well for Ghana. Used to ...

  • KojoLee@Dilemma-Situation 10 years ago

    Well, Mr. Johnny-Be-Good, I understood your point. As a matter of fact, I want Kingson to be around the team to alert those two "Konongo Kaya" keepers - Dauda & Kwaressy to stand up for the task. But handing him automatic No ...

    One (good) thinking about most Ghanian is they can always tell others how bad they perform .Shame on you

  • krikri 10 years ago

    If our current No. 1 keeper was sojittery against Zambia because of warming the bench in even South Africa how can we trust him against the Egyptians?

    You are an idiot. It is fools like you we havent won anything in over 30 yrs. If the current goalkeepers are good enough do you think anyone would worry about calling Kingson..you fool.

  • k.adum 10 years ago

    olele is greedy and coach Appiah also has no plan.what achievement did olele contribute to ghana football since 1998.coach stop this olele before ghanaias kick you out.olele is too old for 21century.

  • Me4U 10 years ago

    It is okay to use historical data to back up one's position and overlook the very relevant issues:

    1) Richard Kings[t]on is NOT 35 years old;
    2) The guy only returned to active goalkeeping after being inactive for two yea ...

    We have to be slow in parting ways with our stars because there are many good footballers but very few stars. Examples of stars I have witnessed in my life are: 1/ Pele 2/ Maredona 3/ Messi (outside Ghana} In Ghana: Robert Me ...

  • Zulu Sheikh 10 years ago

    In fact Olele has not committed any wrong except perhaps after a long layoff and just four appearances in a mediocre league,Ghanaians have a right to question the wisdom in his inclusion.
    That said,I think it speaks to the s ...

    Olele must apologies to Sammy Adjei. This is spiritual known to only Olele. And his problem will be over.

  • adam 10 years ago

    Nii Aryee:
    nice argument. the problem is that you sort of base it on kingston being 35 rather than being in good/top form which we are not so sure. which league did you say he played in? cyprus?
    and the grand basis of your ...

    CAF and FIFA can disqualify Ghana if it is documented that a player used had lied to CAFor FIFA in the past...I believe on some of the forms submitted by GFA or club, there is signature that substantiate that the information ...

  • Azonto Man 10 years ago

    How stupid of you to compare Kingson with Brad Friedel, Van de Sah, Buffon. At his best, Kingson was nowhere near these players in quality. This is the same Kingson who could not cut it for Wigan when he was supposed to be ...

    Playing Second Division in Cyprus makes him the best ?. Eiii Juju, has Kingson gotten to u. He is Oloman Bogey.Tell him to retire. He single handedly took wigan to the bottom of the league and took blackpool to relegation

  • JJ 10 years ago

    What school did you attend ?. I hope you don't call urself a journalist. You comparing apples to oranges. First OLELE is 52 not 35. Second when OLELE was in his prime, he was a crap goal keeper. No way can you compare him to ...

    "His knee will have a medical examination during the next days".

    His knee has not been examined yet, but he has already ruled himself out?
    He will be "fit" to play for Schalke the next day.

  • maks 10 years ago

    Kingson ignore your detractors and stay focused. The good Lord will reward you should you keep the post.

    His crime is being too old to compete with the children.
    JUST AN OLDMAN FOR THE JOB !
    HE has to give way period !

  • Jojo Eghan 10 years ago

    You see no one has an issue with Kingson being called up for the Black Stars. Everyone know how dependable he is. We are just surprised he is still active and not retired. You have been giving examples of keepers who are 39,4 ...
