    Your comments are too harsh you should be ashamed of yourself. You cannot stab the players and twist the dagger deep in to their hearts and l leave to die in such a vicious manner. Why don't you direct your attacks to the cor ...

    uprightness in Ghana will never end with your likes thwarting every effort at rebuking bad behavior. Tell me, who buys training kits for athletes to train and run for Ghana? They buy their own training kits, train from their ...

    Weldone my friend. You wrote well. God bless you.
    Truth is always bitter!

  • Chiddy Delanyo 7 years ago

    I think the comments are harsh. Andre Ayew is asking for support so we can see a new day for the Black Stars and the fans. We need to focus on making history by winning AFCON 2017. We cannot live in the past. Forward Black St ...

    "We need to focus on making HISTORY by winning AFCON 2017".

    What HISTORY: the first team to win Afcon 34 years after its last win?

    Which country would set a goal of beating that record - winning it after waiting 35 year ...

    Don't foolishly beat about the bush. Hit the nail right on the head of Nyantakyi. Until that coefficient thief Kwesi Nyantakyi is off the scene, Ghana will never win an AfCON even if Messi should play for Ghana. I pity the BS ...

    support you mean? after telling us their doing their work? he is now asking for support? master we are also doing our work simple. they should take their families and friends to the stadium to support them

  • oyii 7 years ago

    You can't ask for support because you demanded to be paid what is due to you? How do the players lose if you don't go to watch the games? They still get paid

  • Busumbru 7 years ago

    Bro, well said, but come to think of it,these so called blackstars boys deserve even harser comments

  • frank 7 years ago

    such comments are counter productive

  • Damboo 7 years ago

    I don't understand Africans. You have your politicians looting the nation leaving the people dry and yet you keep voting for them. These players at least generate revenue from FIFA for the country when the play international ...

  • anokwale 7 years ago

    Let me tell you something. As much as I was upset about Brazil I understand that the Black Stars are basically the brand of Ghana and must be supported. There is equal blame to be split between GFA, players and coaches. It i ...

  • Old soldier 7 years ago

    Don't blame the boys but rather the so call leaders,the money conscious management are to be blame they are they cause of everything.so we should for get the past and think the present.

  • Kudjo 7 years ago

    This is a good piece but I think those who led them in that tyranny are no more with the team, let forgive, forget and move on

  • Tsitus 7 years ago

    Rightly said. Nothing harsh here. In fact I now see the Black Stars as useless venture draining tax payers money.

  • Basu 7 years ago

    The money is always not from the coffers of the nation but fifa, so the players have the right.

  • Prince Intsiful 7 years ago

    very good Andre Ayew

  • black man 7 years ago

    Dude, you should address your letter to the management of GfA not the players. what happened in the 2014 world cup it was the players doing, the people who manage the Gfa are to blame..

    Well said man, hope people like u will contribute to such sensitive issues when it's deemed fit to do so.

  • Alex, London 7 years ago

    Well why blame the players. If the government had mets it's commitments, the boys would have died for the nation.
    Who works for months and doestrogen not get paid. Please put yourself in their shoes.
    Thanks

    Good piece of writing. God bless you. The truth hurts but it shall set you free

  • Uncle Ben 7 years ago

    Dr.Daniel must one be sorry for revisiting the truth? That is dishonesty at the utmost best. The Stars are so patriotic that they held Ghana to ransom not even on salary payment but over bonuses delays. Dede and Jordan love G ...

    Did he make himself Deputy Captain?
    Did you hear about him making any backdoor manipulations to get the title?
    He already acts as Captain in Gyan's absence.
    If he becomes full-time, it's because he deserves it.
    Don't brin ...

    All Ayew was trying to say is that, we should support the Stars through thick and thin. That's all. Why this long article?

  • Tivenah Samad 7 years ago

    well said they must be patriotic to the nation before they get the full support back

  • AB(US) 7 years ago

    It was true, our beloved "Blackstar" team disappointed the nation bitterly, painfully on that occasion. However, the cause of the whole problem was the inefficient GFA and the leadership. So the team cannot take all the blam ...

    How are the Black Stars enriching themselves on the backs of ordinary poor Ghanaians? They asked for what they earned through FIFA revenue sharing! If you have any beef, you should direct your indignation at corrupt and ine ...

    It's nation reckless mentality to even say in your subconscious mind that ' it's FIFA's money' hence it's good to go washing ashore. It was Ghana who was named and shamed and not FIFA. In any case FIFA isn't the world's numbe ...

    The nonsense from the BS players was instigated by the coefficient thief Kwesi Nyantakyi. Bcos of the GFA 80% of player's appearance fee they take they always want the BS players to be paid in cash.

    Your anger should rather be turned towards your so called GFA Bosses who enrich their pockets at the expense of the Youngs

    This is a good piece. It actually reflects the level of bitterness Ghanaians like me have against the snr national team. They really hurt us in Brazil. They will have to show sincere remorse.

  • Qwesi Bozen 7 years ago

    We are just going to be fine when the stars deliver in the next tournament. Lets hope for the best.
