Can the GFA explain why Kwesi Appiah was sacked? In fact Kwesi Nyantakyi is more corrupt than an NPP minister.

Why can't you guys here on this forum organize a marching protest outside gfa building against these gfa gurus and their leader Nyantakyi? I will suggest forumites should organize a marching demonstration to oust Nyantakyi and his administration cuz the usual ranting here on this forum without any action taken is meaningless. You guys should take action for now or else Nyantakyi and his corrupt gurus will continue to stay in power.

And do you people think he cares? After all he chop our money for 2yrs while he enjoy life abroad. We shouldn't have appointed him in de 1st place. Give de team to abt 3 local coaches. But before dat all GFA executives must be sacked. Next time players like John Boye, Brimah, Jordan, Asamoah etc should not be invited. We badly need Kwadwo Asamaoh but when he comes players from de North part of Ghana such as Dede, Wakasso, Jordan will bewitch him. Why de friction b/n Dede and Sulley? Bcos )yaa suro )yaa. They are all northerners fighting fr de same position.

Mr Grant,we advise you to call the likes of Kevin Boateng, Muntari but you followed this GFA officials and refused to call players who will play good football for you now you see what has happen to you. They fired you for their own mistakes and putted all the blames on you. Next time be brave and do your job professionally and don't let your employees decide your job and tell you who to play for their own interest and let put their messes on you.

CK Gyamfi, Jones Attuquayfio, etc were all former players. Look across Europe, most of the coaches are all former players, so why are our former players not good for the job? U must be seriously sick in the head.

It's time Ghana looked back and punished those who appointed this lazy coach. Those of us in UK were astonished to hear that this lousy coach has been appointed by GFA after Chelsea sacked him for inaction. I know the GFA panicked to find a Bulgarian Israeli sitting in front of them speaking a slang they never understood. Those who appointed him should be made to reimburse Ghana for their stupidity.

The initiative of not renewing the contract is coming from the coach and not from the FA. The coach had made this intention clear long before Afcon.

Akwasi Nyantakyi and his mafie in the GFA have to be changed other than that the Ghanaian Football will not never succeed in win any trophy. There is too much corruption going on in there.That's why why they cann't deal with players like Sulley Muntari, Kevin Prince Boateng, Adam Kwaresey etc., because they will tell them their mind and will not pay any money to them.Has Ghanaians ever ask Akwasi Nyantakyi what he does with the moneys he recieves from FIFA for Ghana Football Association every year? Has he ever accounted for the hudge sums he has been recieving? I think is time for all Ghanaians to go on protest against him and his cohorts.How can a goal keeper like Adam Kwarasey sitting on the benchsomeone playing in the first league and has won many title with his teams will not be fix but a bench warmer like Razak Ibrahim in a second division team play and he sits on the bench this can happen only in Ghana. The whole World are laughing at us because they cann't understand what is going on in our GFA. Country Man Zongo have been saying it all the time in his programms but it seems we are not taking him for serious.My appeal is let all Ghanaians stand up and protest against a change in the GFA management if we want our football to take it's course.Ghana needs a change in GFA. We have some local coaheswho are much better than the white it's only the GFA who are not giving the chance, because they don't want to pay our coahes huge amounts like the whites. They are discriminating our own people. It's time to dissolve this management.
