The hurried way in which coach Otto Addo has been sacked is very unfortunate. This is not the time to sack the coach. Here is a coach who qualified the Black Stars for the World Cup for the second time. The World Cup is only 2 months from now. When is the government going to find another coach to get used to the players and train them for the World Cup? Does the government think the Black Stars can win the World Cup by bringing another coach? Let us wait and see.

This is nonsense. How many coaches have come and gone? It’s too many and GFA should stop this nonsense of listening to these ignorant radio talk shows that keeps talking trash by criticizing the coaches. It’s time to put the blame on the players who care more about their clubs than their country.
It’s true they make money at their clubs, but I believe we should start blaming them for their shortcomings instead of always blaming the coaches.

This is a total disgrace to the nation. What did he do wrong? Does GFA realize that friendly matches are completely different from the actual game? Sometimes it feels like Ghana is not worth dying for. Belgium thrashed USA by 5-2 and yet they still maintain their coach. I'm sorry, but whoever made that decision or initiated that decision is not only crazy, but stupid. I am sorry, but I have to be blunt. Someone helped the BS qualify for the world cup and you booted him. Ungrateful bunch of leadership in the country. No one should expect anything from this crooked crooks sitting at the GFA.

@Pito,
Kwasi Appiah has managed the Black Stars twice, what happened? Did Muntari rings a bell? What about K.P. Boateng? What did he achieved? There are so many quality coaches we can hire and pay. Corruption is what is holding us back. The Politicians prefer to steal the money instead of appointing a coach like Herve Renard. He will bring the best out of this players, and bench players like Adjetey, who gave away two penalties in two games. He's also a no-nonsense coach, who will bring discipline to the playing body.

Blame Okraku and his cohorts. They are very manipulative and Otto fell for it. Public outcry and the blatant incompetence of Otto msy have caused the GFA to fold this time.

NB: It is alleged Ghana paid $2 million to Dortmund for them to release this incompetent scout.

Atleast we have one sensible person on this platform..Otto Addo is not that good as a coach but the fat is whoever they bring as a coach, he cannot use this average Ghanaian players to qualify to even the semi finals..this stupid decision to sack Otto Addo is about to send the black stars to its old loosing ways..a country that always act on emotions..it’s not like the new coach can use the is team to reach the semi finals..Ghanaians are too emotional..allow Otto Addo to finish the World Cup, the man will resign by himself..because o new coach can turn this team around in less than 3months to the World Cup..a country filled with emotionally unstable beings

A coach who failed to qualify for the last Afcon in a group with Sudan, Niger, Angola, this is long overdue. The Gfa must be investigated very well. Whoever employed otto addo must be charged for causing financial loss to the state. The entire technical team must go. How could you gamble with inexperienced Painstil and Fatawu dauda? The management team must be dissolved asap.We need an experienced coach who can quickly fix our problems. Kurt Okraku must also go, he is destroying our football.

Ver bad decision by GfA..I know a lot of Ghanaians with low IQ will jubilate but this is wrong decision by the GfA at this critical moment..I hope whoever made this decision gives it a second thought..is the GFA saying the new coach coming will win the World Cup for Ghana? The number 1 reason why a lot of African countries cannot develop is that they always using emotions instead of their brains..this is a bad decision..Atleast let him finish the word cup and after that he will actually resign if he performs badly..Ghana is having a lot of emotionally unstable people in higher positions..this is wrong, wrong and wrong..we all know Otto Addo is not that good as a coach but for u to allow him to qualify the team to the World Cup, it’s foolishness to sack him at this last minute..Africans especially Ghanaians are too emotional people and that’s why we never get anything good..as a country, we should not allow emotions to take over our reasoning..this is a terrible decision by GFA..let the man go to the World Cup and he himself will resign after poor performance..no new coach can use this Ghanaian team to even reach the semi finals..as much as Otto Addo is bad, the players of this current Blackstars are also not good enough..we have too many emotionally unstable people babies occupying positions

We have huffed and puffed and bellowed for so long the obvious truth that we have a moron for a coach!!

That it took us so long to do the right thing despite the painfully glaring absurdity of it, and to do it so close to a major tournament is enough evidence that just perhaps the coach himself is only a pawn in someone's self-serving agenda at the FA.

Which mentally sound FA would risk the appointment of a club scout with absolutely no pedigree and zero track record in management not to mention international experience to coach a national team of the Black Stars' repute???

Who in their right minds will risk experimenting with the sanctity and emotions of a whole nation when there was absolutely no sane, extenuating reason to take that route. Where there was a plethora of options we chose the worst possible one amongst the worst possible available when we were under absolutely no duress nor obligation so to do!!!

While it's a little too late, it is a huge relief with pyrrhic consequences and for that, the GFA and everybody who contributed to this deliberate, glaring clusterfcuk must walk the plank with Otto Addo.

Good riddance to stinking rubbish.

Whoever engineered the sacking of the coach at this time close to the world cup is senseless.
It should have been after the world cup cos whoever is appointed would be sack eventually after the world cup.

Auto. They don't like you because of their wickedness mentality. You will not allow them to do their chop chop. It's not from Mr. Okraku but from the top. Have you forgotten Kwasi Appia time. They put money in the plane to Brazil. Ghana politicians are funny. Let them chop chop, bad sickness will hit their body and they will regret that chop chop. You cannot trust ndc politicians. Come to Germany, you have great opportunities here. You see world cup is coming and you will let them spend the money lavishly. Judas mahama loves money like drinking water. A word to a wise is enough.
