gfa must cut down the number of clubs in the gpl. all these yam sellers and goat herders, kenkey and coconut sellers can not afford to run a professional club in gh. so why are they in the business? we need clubs to shutdown or merge operations. we need owners to merge their clubs for the issue of cash to be addressed. otherwise, any fool with a capital of $10,000 will say they want to run a club in the gpl and we all know this is not proper for the lg, financially

I forgive you, ignorant is a disease, you think the owners of clubs are coconut sellers, do u know how much a boot even cost?? the club owners are not paying high salaries cos of the economy . You sitting somewere and making allegations maybe kraaa is employed by a private firm and is been paid 450 a month, shut up, the salary proplem in Ghana is not only in football, do u know how much sign on fees e players take before settling for a salary of 300,400 or more, that money nkoaaa is your salary to retirement. Don't say what you don't know. We are football selling nation, until all things are equal.

I wonder why some people don't open up their minds and extend their thinking when analyzing and commenting on an issue. It sounds stupid and hypocritcal to me when I hear people complain that soccer players leave Ghana. We should rather be glad there is demand for our players in other countries. It is no different from our doctors and other professionals leaving to work outside Ghana. Your comment is right on the money. Hopefully people like Mr. Ghfuo learn something from your comment. Thanks my brother.

I WANT U DWEEBS WHO THINK IM WRONG TO HVE A DEBATE: PROS N CONS OF HAVING REDUCED CLUBS IN THE PREMIER LG..LIKE 6 OR 10 CLUBS...
1. ONLY THE BEST PLAYERS WILL GET LG CONTRACTS. THERE WILL BE MORE COMPETITION AND WAGES WILL INCREASE. RIFF RAFF CLUBS N PLAYERS WILL PLAY IN DIV 1 TO 3 OR COLTS....OR FIND SOMETHING ELSE TO DO....CLUBS WHO CANT AFFORD PLAYERS WILL NOT BE ABLE TO COMPETE. THE GPL MUST BE AN ELITE, EXCLUSIVE LG. RIGHT NOW, THE LG IS SIMPLY RIFF RAFF, TRASH...U HAVE PLAYERS WHO DONT HAVE THE SKILL PLAYING IN THE LG AND THIS DUMBS DOWN THE QUALITY...NYANTAKYI SAYS GH LG HAS QUALITY? I DONT THINK SO....IF GH LG HAD QUALITY MATERIALS. THEN WHY IS THAT GH PLAYERS DONT DOMINATE FOREIGN LGS WHEN THEY LV GH? WE HAVE GH PLAYERS IN ALMOST EVERY NATION IN AFRICA...FROM EGYPT, SOUTH AFRICA, NAIJA, CONDO ETC...BUT ARE THESE H PLAYERS DOMINATING FOREIGN LGS? NO...SO WHAT WHEN NYANTAKYI SAYS GH LG HAS QUALITY MATERIALS. WHAT DOES HE MEAN?

They must be some form regulations , however you can not stop people from own footballs. The setup must be of broader base I think. Let say you limit the number of clubs in the premier league to be 2 in each region that will work to an extent but you can't limit the formation of clubs at the district level. Each district should have a local club, but these clubs will have ambitions of reaching the premiere league and if they do ,we could end up having 2 or more clubs from one region in the premier division like the case of BA .the bottom line is ,these clubs are professionally run ,so they need to employ marketing directors to sell the club and make it brand popular. They need sponsorship from regional companies. The local people should support their local industries by buying and cosuming local and the industries in turn supporting the clubs. .... It's a long shot but with proper planning and understanding of the concept... it will revive the industries , football and the local communities .

No solution will work until the economy of Ghana gets back on track. Ordinary Ghanaians are in serious economic trouble but it seems that is the last feeling some callous and empty-headed people among us fail to get. The bottom line is that people don't have adequate income and companies are struggling. So who will pay for this marketing nonsense?

Sit down and wait for government and do politics. Nigeria learnt the hard ,but at least they learned something that governments in Africa are there for party followers and faithfuls, if your party is not in power the economy is obviously bad ,when it swings they other way others will sing a different song. Now NDC is enjoying and the opposition is suffering and the economy is bad depending on which divide you affiliate yourself, however until we take politics out of it.,the story will be the same. Look deep into leading world economies and see where they started from. It takes an industrial revolution starting a change of mindset and attitude to turn it around. Anyway have nice day

See how conflicting your comment is. What turn around do we need industrial revolution to do if there is nothing wrong with the economy. You are admitting the economy is bad by saying it needs a turn around. But you are also saying the state of the economy depends on party affiliation. You sound hypocritical, shallow and heartless.

Even Kube sellers are working hard to support this players to be international players. What returns does this Kube seller get back? Even the players themselves forget the help they have received and turn to ignore these Kube sellers after they have made it. Where are the good and well educated professionals? will they invest in football?.........?????????
