... and the president must called him to order.
The Football Association, is silent on many issues not because they are coward but when the tsunami that is gradually arising hit out our beautiful football game which we are all passionate about, the blame shouldn't be apportion on them but the originator of that toofan,the sports minister,Nii Lamptey Vanderpuye.
Hon.Nii Lamptey, thinks he is making changes of progress but by the time he realized- ignorantly he have already being goofed.Every decision the minister takes brings the success of Black stars backwards by twenty percent.
A minister, who is supposed to make all the sporting events his concern because of ferocious thinking, always comes out with an issue that concerns only the football administration.Boxing,Athletics and other lesser known sporting events needs an equal attention but for the sake of fame and unnecessary attention,the football matters is what he only thinks about.
Black stars, success under the Nyantakyi's administration is based upon so many strong pillars and if you have a sports minister who doesn't encourage to promote the course but trying to be negative against it, then Ghana football has a big problem.
An expatriate coach like Avram Grant, cannot be treated any how.The sports minister aught to show him an accorded respect.Changing his salary from dollars to Ghanaian cedis is lack of respect towards the coach,no matter if the decision was made by the presidential commission or not,it was wrong decision to carry out and l see it as a way of frustrating the FA's work indirectly.
As a former sports journalist,Nii Lamptey, should have known better that anything that brings confusion and misunderstanding at the teams outfit should not be tolerated, but here he is making unnecessary resolutions that will in future affect the teams performance.
AS a foreign coach, his private transactions are sometimes not done at where he lives but outside and how do the minister expect him to do so.
We are in a country where even some restaurant and hotels are refused to transact business in our currency but in dollars. How much do you expect a foreign coach to respect your currency,beside that, Grant,is not the first coach to have received his salaries in dollars and it was not implemented by Nyantakyis administration too.The decision, l think is bogus and baseless and l believe it is some how, a revenge against the coach for walking out on him at training.
l entreat his excellency ,President Mahama to call the sports minister to order because some of decisions is a ploy against the progress of our football.He is a weevil and termite who is gradually taking out the happiness and the motivation the coach has, and if not taken care of it will affect Black stars in the near future.
