  Elvis is no doubt going to make mistakes here and there but he didn't make any calamitous mistake that warrant any firing. He was not profligate and it was cabinet tasked to approve budget for the Black Stars, not him.

  I agree that Govt was at fault for dithering and indecision but that is no justification for the gangster behaviour by Muntari and the petulance of some of black star players which in the end made the team come short. How can you hold distrust for your nation that they are not going to pay you. Even at the under 20 level, we pay you, no matter what so how can you think we are not going to pay you and you start misbehaving? Ghana is richer than all the clubs they play for in Europe so how can you entertain the idea that you won't be paid, If we don't pay you, how can we call you the next time? common sense!

  for putting 4 million dollars on an airplane. they brought so much shame to ghana. the gfa chairman is at fault. the sports minitser is at fault some of the players are at fault but the government takes the bigger blame. first for using poor tax payers' money to pay millionaire footballers and corrupt gfa officials and corrupt ministers and their girlfriends. the entire government needs to be taken to the firing squad for mismanagement of state funds and disgracing ghana

  I would say that it is not about firing anyone but more about understanding that if the Black Stars are going to be at the World Stage on a regular basis the government, GFA and the coaches and players must be professional at all times. I am talking about money, performance, organization and behavior on an off the pitch. I personally, can take losing. I was not happy but I know that many nations wish they could have participated in the WC and Ghana was the only nation not to lose to the eventual champions Germany. The embarassment of the money scandal and the slaps and cursing at coaches is what hurt most of us. It is time to change the culture concerning the Black Stars as a brand.
