These people think the rest of the World are stupid!! This is a stupid direct campaign by FAZ to get another free 3 points from FIFA. You know they are going to claim maltreatment no matter what and appeal for another free 3points to win the group. What a dishonest nation.

usually i'd not reply to people of your sort, but you got it wrong this time. why do you want to twist facts? it was the Ivorians who treated Ghanaians citizens in CIV badly simply because a Ghanaian team won a match against their team. like you rightly mentioned, they did lots of horrible things to the Ghanaians. but the opposite was the case when they came here for the return match. so you can see that Ghanaians are not like some of our neighbours. next time you spill nonsense on the net make sure you're talking about the right thing.

Zambia wants a way out but there is no way out. Whether this game is played on a home ground or an away ground, we are going to win. I've never heard our players taken matches personal like they have going into this match. Each of them wants to be part of this encounter and that alone show the determination from them. Therefore, it wouldn't matter the venue of this up-coming match.

This is the eleventh hour to the Showdown in Oseikrom. From now on, time will fly. The Copperbullets cannot refuse to honour this battle or else they will incurr humiliation beyond measure. A few days ago they were talking about beating the Black Stars. What happened?
We will treat them like comrades just like Osagyefo Dr. Kwame "Showboy" Nkrumah treated Dr. Kenneth Kaunda. We will give them the finest food and hotels in the land. They will be protected by the police and no evil will befall them.
Unlike in 1964 we will not field the B team, and consequently, they must be prepared to absorb more goals as the famous Black Stars teach them the fundamentals of soccer. Unfortunately they cannot opt for the B team as they did in 1964. They are they scared? They should not worry and lose sleep over this. Ghana will not field Generals Amankwa Tia and Adu Bofo in Oseikrom. They will be allowed to rest in peace just as the fallen brave and honourale soccer stars of Zambia.On the otherhand we will field the best soccer stars in the land. They are not being coached by a Muzungu. They may possibly have a reason to be afraid of the Battle of Oseikrom Its because they realize that they will be no match for the Black Stars after the return of all the warriors. We will give them the receipt of those losses they inflicted on the Black Stars. They claim they had beaten the Black Stars including all our warriors before. Well, that is fine. Why all these manouvres to freeload to Brazil as they did with Sudan? Did they beat Lesotho convincingly? How could they beat the Black Stars? The Copperbullets have just worked a formula for just that! They will instigate FIFA to disqualify Ghana and hand the 3 points to Zambia. Cowards and sons of Cowards.

Ghanaians are fast playing into the hands of the Zambians and may end up giving the Zambians three chaep points. On form,Zambia CANNOT DEFEAT Ghana in Ghana. However, when a Ghanaina player made his careless statement, he was properly going to injure his Country and give Zambia 3 cheap points. Why not concentrate on the game and trounce Zambia rather than playing into their hands. I am sometimes surprised at the character of some west African players, even when they play in Europe. Must Boateng talk carelessly?

It appears the Zambians are prepared to win the three points by hook, crook or default. It appears they are afraid to come to Ghana and to Kumasi in particular to meet the Black Stars. They are now citing fear of their lives. They want to create a fake environment of hostility and insecurity. As Ghanaians we must show them we are too smart to fall for that ruse. They may even make false claims of attacks to have the match replayed elsewhere if not Ghana losing the game by default for false allegations
of attacks on their players. I bet you these unscrupulous agenda by the Zambians may be bouyed up by their expectations or otherwise of the outcome of the much anticipated Supreme Court verdict. Perhaps they are counting on the possibility of some 'Trouble' so that they will be able to substantiate their claim of insecurity in Ghana and so the match be played outside the country. This is one reason why Ghanaians must maintain their sense of peace and love for higher human values irrespective of the political situation so that we can not only shame the Zambians pay back them BIG TIME on the pitch. Long Live Ghana. Good Luck to the Black Stars.

Mr N I bet the Zambians may be seriously contemplating a scenario which they can use to avoid Ghana in Kumasi by citing security concerns.
Ideally, the verdict could have been announced later just because we want the whole country to be united in support of the Black Stars. It would have been extremely helpful if politics which tend to divide Ghanaians is put aside in the run up to such a crucial match. However as far as violence is concerned I believe Ghanaians have the pedigree to show not only to the Zambians that we are a peaceful and matured people but to the rest of Africa and the world as well. The Zambians can run or play all sorts of games. But they cannot hide or avoid the drubbing which waits them at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium on September 6.

"Ghana is peace and peace is Ghana"

However, the verdict stands as a test of time, OOPS! a possible scenario, bad me! the likelihood that the outcome may disrupt the peace and tranquility of the people,
thereby, may put the much publicized derby, our most passion of time, soccer and everything, "Brazil Her we come" may not run to a screeching halt.

"Nothing not gonna happen" (the American slang) but the aftermath, the side effect of a loss by the encumbent would affect the turn out physically watching the match wise.

In their solemn moment, losers would naturally stay home and brood over the sad and the unsuspecting event.

On the contrary, winner of the verdict would love to politically jubilate in the bars, as well as on the street and not at the stadium.

Whatever the case may be, the match on the 6th, I suspect could be a flop in terms of spectatorship that could be transformed into a political mob and hooliganism.

Consequently, If I were in the government, more precisely, I, being the president of Ghana would have used my executive/krakye powers. i.e.
Will moot the controversial motion/idea of postponing the D-day until after the match. So that, and only for that reason, our soccer solidarity, for and behind the GBS would continue to be unconditional.

USA has beaten Germany on one or two ocaassion,but nobody can seriously tell me,the US is in the same class with Germany when it comes to soccer as the Americans call it.
Just shut,go to Kumasi,get your beatings,i mean on the pitch and go back home,and concentrate on how to qualify for the next AFCON.

When was the last time Ghana maltreated any opponent? We are civilized and well behaved that is why the country has been peaceful. We enjoyed free compulsory education to university in the 60s and since then it is part of our culture to educate our children, Zambia has no case because of our good record.

Look at where the Zambians are taking their media war to. If they treated us excellently and Derick advocates same measure, why are they afraid? FIFA should ignore these diversionary tactics.

Ghana came to your den and had a defeat and why are you afraid seeking help to move to a neutral grounds to avoid defeat. Mr Mwanza be a man and stop this kind of noise. When did you learn that Ghana was playing them in Kumasi? He should have written to FIFA earlier when he was notified and not when all is done before he starts shaking.BE A MAN MR MWANZA.

Wonderful Zambia, why do want free cheap 6 point to qualify to world cup. FIFA must not listen to them. They have to fight for it. World cup is not for cheap teams.

Sometimes people easily forget themselves and their actions. The evil people do live after them. You same person said the players were treated fairly.
The players complained about officiating you were all over the world defending your nation and referees. Zambia at second position because they went to FIFA against Sudan.
So can’t just play football always FIFA, you think you are the only person who knows FIFA useless leader, instead to accept the problem and address you were beating around the bush. At that time you thought September 2013 will never come, now there you are. We will only accept neutral ground unless first play at Zambia is cancelled and replay at neutral ground first.
Black Star were treated fairly at Zambia same fair treatment will be done for Zambia national team period.

Ghanaians don't beat on foreign soccer teams give me one example. The Zambian soccer team is coward

I was once a soccer player we travel outside Ghana and played in many countries in Africa, Africans, especially Ghana respect their players likewise the guest soccer team

I think what they are telling Ghanaian s and the Black Star team is that they are afraid of the strength of the mighty Black Stars and they feel a defeat already period

Ghana is a good country so we will try to give them all the security they need but not a neutral ground

If they believe in themselves to be a good soccer team, venue does not matter so please ask the Zambians to shut up and face the music
