    Ghanaians likecopying too much, instead of finding out how Nigeria did it we jump to the conclusion and look at the embarassment to our past heros. Sorry my people.

    Paying some of them back for being too vocal about the recent setbacks the national team has suffered. Did anyone enquire about how the GFA top gurus and their entourage were treated? Many who never kicked a soccer ball in th ...

    I am sorry for the treatment that the ex-players had to face in our game but I encourage them to follow the team to our away games and for all our remaining homes games as well.

    I don't blame you b'cos you live in an advance world where you see everything so cozy without an iota of how it begun, so go ahead and talk anyhow. Mediocrity and highest level of stupidity indeed.
