  How can you heap all the praises on Real Republican when infact your own story admited that their players came from local teams who actually nurtured the players.

  Unfortunately , things happen to people who are ignorant , naive , misguided and downright stupid. You don’t dismantle a good foundation of a good system unless you’re so stupid to realise the value or potential benefits from that approach. The foreign countries and the Citizens of Ghana who were involved in Destroying the Aspirations of Ghana are well known Families and political parties. They have absolutely NO shame whatsoever. THEY ARE ALL THE NEO-COLONIALIST Characters in our country. They are still very active in our national politics. Thievery , corruption , treachery , mischievous behaviour of all kinds and some are well established in General System of Justice, Military , Intelligence , almost all the Armed Forces, ministries personnel, even some Traditional chiefs and Clergy. Watch out and smoke them out and shame them.

  They control the military and police which is why they can Down a helicopter without a national investigation, period.

  Doodo Ankrah was a goalkeeper. There was a picture of him ona giant bill board diving in the sky to catch a ball. Egyptian President had AL Hali National, Sekou Tuore had Hafia, Mobuto had Englebert. Those presidents love football and used the model club to serve the National teams unlike these days when that national team is made up of individual fron all over the world who meet only 3days for National matches.

  You are right: COHESION IS THE ANSWER ! So even if the current Black Stars are assembled from all parts of the world, they should play MANY, MANY GAMES TOGETHER TO FOSTER COHESION, even against club sides, both local and international, (and because these club sides are naturally COHESIVE, encounters with them are more challenging and will provide TOUGHER TESTS for our beloved Black Stars) and also against school teams who, more or less, play without decipherable textbook tactics and strategy.

  A second club was formed and modeled after Real Republicans, that team was known as Sekondi Independence, however no one talks about that club.

  I remember watching Republicans vs Hassacas at Sekondi Gyandu Park where Obiletey Commey headed a shot and dazed on the field.
  That was the end of his football adventure. Tnx.
