WHY DON'T THEY TRUST THEIR FEDERATIONS?

BECAUSE YOU ENCOURAGE THE FEDERATIONS TO BE CORRUPT AND FORBID THE HOME GOVERNMENTS TO AUDIT THEIR ACCOUNTS, UNDER THE GUISE OF GOVERNMENT INTERFERENCE, ALL FOR YOUR KICKBACKS.

You are right! How do FIFA expect Govts to pay player bonus when Govts cannot audit. If governments are expected to Pay player bonuses and appearance fees then same governments are under obligation from TAX PAYERS to ensure accountability and that include finding out what's went wrong to guide future tournaments

Mr. Blatter, whose fault? African players don't trust their FA's.

FIFA is a big money making network as most sports these days but when it comes your country leave money behind. I guess those who have reasonable money saved from league matches wont scream too much for it and get on with task while FAs sort it out but federations should also be transparent on money coming FIFA without any tampering

I'm sure when u go in to work today and ur boys drives in with a nice car and tells u he does not have money to pay u and ur friend that works in a similar company gets paid and can afford a house and car but u can't. I'm sure u will just say u doing it for ur country. Please Kevin Boateng sees his brother play for Germany and he is treated with professionalism by the FA and comes to Ghana and there is such lack of organization what do u expect? When u are naive u taken advantage off but when u become wiser the game is over. The GFA will have to depend on local players who don't know any better so they can take advantage of then

There's more details...the Greek National Team donated only the BONUS they got. Meaning they still received their appearance fees...what remains is the amount they'll get in addition for advancing to the round of 16 (which is 8 million for team + 1 million for round of 16). The players didn't walk away empty handed. They comfortably donated their BONUS knowing there's trust between the players and the their FA. If the Greek FA says they will build the sports facility they will do it. But the Ghana FA is so corrupt that if money is donated, "they go chop them all" and in 50 years only the pillars will be there without the stadium even built.

I beg to differ Mr. Blatter, the word is respect not trust. Ghanaian players insulted their FA officials & coach, One of them slapped an Official and some players booked their wives into their hotel and expected the FA to pay. Our coach wept a some point are these trust or respect? Blatter should not call a spade a big spoon when it is to be used in Africa. If Sulley and Kevin were Europians, FIFA would have added to their woes by barning them.

THESE AFRICAN FA HEADS ARE ALL PETTY THIEVES AND LIARS. THEY REFUSE TO DO THINGS PROFRESSIONALLY BECOS THAT IS THE ONLY WAY THEY CAN TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE PLAYERS. HOW CAN A LAWYER NOT KNOW OR SEE IT NECESSARY TO ENGAGE IN A PROFESSIONALLY VIABLE CONTRACTUAL AGREEMENT WITH THE PLAYERS BEFORE EVERY ASSIGNMNT. WITH REGARDS TO TO PLAYER BONUSES, U ASK? HE WANTS TO STEAL FROM THEM, THATS WHY...IN EUROPE N EVERYWHERE ELSE, FA'S SUBJECT THESE PLAYERS TO CONTRACTUAL AGREEMENTS BEFORE EACH ASSIGNMNT TO ELIMINTE ANY UNWANTED CONFUSION. THIS IS WHY WHEN NYANTAKYI ASKED FIFA TO UPFRONT THEM THEIR PORTION OF THE WCUP MONIES. THE FIRST THING BLATTER ASKED NYANTAKYI WAS THIS....SEND ME A COPY OF THE CONTRACT YOU SIGNED WITH THE PLAYERS. SO I CAN ASCERTAIN THE AMOUNT/BONUSES YOU HVE AGREED TO WITH THE PLAYERS...U KNOW. NYANTAKYI DIDNT HVE A CONTRACT, SO HE WENT TO MAHAMA...WHY DIDNT MAHAMA ASK NYANTAKYI FOR A CONTRACT AS WELL? MAHAMA ALLOWED THIS GREEDY THIEF TO HOLD GH TO RANSOM.

What is the basis of the distrust. For the past decade the GFA has never reneged on its promise to pay players' bonus. The GFA is a corrupt organization. But there is one area that the GFA has excelled.

If Ghana had reached the quarter final or the semi final, most of these players would have ended up with lucrative contracts in Europe worth several million dollars a year. The returns would have been far greater than the $100K that each player was paid. To be a Ghanaian is to be a fucking idiot.
