  Capital plus should have donated the check along with the trophy at the same time.....this is bad publicity for first capital and says so much about them.

  Kotoko should executives are cowards.
  
  They should simply learn from Alhaji Gurunsah and Sue the organisers of the premier league.
  
  Boycott, in this case, is a defeatist attitude. Go to court!

  The deplorable state in which the colourful, the ever popular Ghana's Premium League finds itself could best be described in the Ghanaian parlance as "nobody's making" But'self inflicting'.
  "3nny3 obi na ay3-3y3 y3n ara na y'ay3"
  
  Here is One:
  THE PLAYING BODY:
  Majority of the players are 'non-schoolers' if you know what I mean.
  They are manipulatively inducted into the League with little or no knowledge about how the system operates albeit how it would work for them in their foreseeable future, choice of teams, shoddy contract terms and schemes.
  With these kind of materials the end product could be as good as nothing.
  Its the league that suffer.
  
  THE FRONT OFFICE:
  The main preoccupation of the front office that manages the team is to use these players to foster their business aspirations, as a friend would say 'to their own whims and caprices of their ill-gotten merchandise'.
  As time goes on, players are covertly or overtly, get acquainted with the system and as a recourse, would decide to use their new find quality or caliber to compel the front office to overhaul or purge it to compensate for the elapsed 'bagyimibr3'
  When that happens, it is the League that suffers.
  
  I can hear myself write, as I struggle with the keyboard:
  That,It is the BlackStars that suffers" when the front office goof off.
  
  
  THE BIG PICTURE:
  As the GPL continues to suffer a stalemate, the "Nobody's making But Our Own Making Slogan" (caps mine) is still standing supreme.
  It brings me to the door front of the GFA.
  The One man Front Office of the GFA, as events of the Brazil Fiasco/the COI) have lets us believe, is none other person than Akwasi Nyantakyi.
  
  In spite of all the monies obtained from FIFA, i.e. sponsorships, BS sympathizers like you and I, as well as other philanthropists, as has been his normal culture and practices, from 2006 thru 2014, he had sent an outrageous WC budget to the government to 'cough out' so the entire GFA cohorts could enrich themselves to the detriment of Ghana tax payers.
  
  THE THIEF AND THE LIAR:
  
  In an interview right after his return from the WC events, AN was confronted as to how the 'Appearance Fee' was conducted and whether or not him and his cohorts were benefactors from that booty to which he confirmed having had his share. How was the money shared? He reiterated the AF of one or two players was shared amongst his men only to know that, he had lied thru his teeth.
  Instead, he took double of that amount. The coach also took double to satisfy the 'co-efficient' formula.
  
  At another scenario, he had said the GFA does not handle monies. It has been the ministry's cup of tea.
  Come to know, he had ordered his leading man(no names named) to pick up a substantive cheque that was physically returned to him for 'unreceipted' disbursement to the crew. Can he now justify the lie that he does not handle money or monies?
  "AN y3 Okoromfo takyiamoa paa"
  
  One wonders why/how we as Ghanaians have kept quiet and have watched this man stole and continue stealing from our coffers with impunity,the slightest opportunity he gets.
  
  Sooner or later, Morocco would be here
  Is he the same person going to propose budgeting?
  
  Are we so daft, dumb and mathematically inoperable? OOPS! accounting inefficient OR co-efficient 25K OR just that "ONyame b3ko ama y3n" so what?
  
  AS the COI is winding up business, it is my hope that justice would take its course. With the judicial forcefulness as the backbone of its deliberations, more hidden truths could be let out in order to salvage the game we love so much.
  
  The Mahama government, in its desire to uproot corruption once and for all, with everyone of us the youth crying for the right thing to be done from the top to toe.
  Our culture that strive for peace and solidarity as one nation striving to prevent future attacks on the economy by way of football must pursue prosecution and obtaining convictions as enshrined in our constitution a normal thing to do in a civilized society such as ours.
  Papa anny3 hwee a, Bone nso nny3 hwee"
  Beats Me.

  The fault here is with First Bank Capital and the National Football League should not suffer for First Banks Fault.
  
  The solution is to participate in the League but to go to Court to get First Bank to pay the money with Interest and Costs.
  
  The GFA should also withdraw First Banks sponsorship because they have proven to be not worthy and trustful enough to be involved in the League.
  There are more worthwhile companies to deal with.
  
  And hope those investing or saving with First Bank Capital also takes note of their woeful performance. Any fool saving with them should not be surprised if they are told their money cannot be paid to them.
