The benefits of the World Cup are immense and perhaps incalculable for everyone involved. The most significant thing however isn’t that we run commentaries on the benefits – whether quantifiable or not. Ours is to continuously charge those tasked with managing football at the association and/or state level to let’s see and feel the benefits […]
The pundits got it right. The Black Stars, for all the period they’ve been at the FIFA World Cup haven’t lost a second group game. On that premise, South Korea were to lose or in the worst case scenario earn a point. A Ghana defeat was ruled out. And that’s exactly what happened. Ghana beat […]
I decline to go into the merits or demerits of whatever necessitated the suspension of the betPawa Premier League. The issues are well known. Therefore instead of being on what would be a needlessly tiresome recall of Ashantigold’s troubles and the court issues, energies would be expended well in sharing my joy over the league’s […]
Ashantigold’s attempt to stop the start of the 2022/23 betPawa Premier League with a court action ended in futility. The competition got underway as planned with Accra Great Olympics beating Bechem United 1-0 at the Accra Sports Stadium on Saturday. I know not the path Ashantigold would take as a football club but what’s clear to me is […]
As I spoke with Black Galaxies Coach Annor Walker 24 hours after their 4-0 aggregate victory over Benin (Ghana won 3-0 in first leg), I heard joyful confidence in his voice as he reflected on his team’s attitude, performance and results in the first phase of the 2023 African Nations Championship (CHAN) qualifying matches. Clearing […]
I’m firm in my conviction that the picture painted out there to Asante Kotoko supporters of which I’m proudly and inseparably one isn’t the exact state of affairs. That’s no news as organisations often have difficult times and what’s required of mangers then is to resolutely confront the difficulties and solve them. It’s also nothing […]
I make concessions. I’m not shy to do that. On hindsight, my tweets right after news of Asante Kotoko coach, Prosper Narteh Ogum’s purported resignation was ill-timed. Fans were shocked and upset. They needed something soothing, something reassuring, not opinions projecting the undercurrents leading to the confusion. I’m very sorry. This is the admittance I […]
“We are of the view that the Disciplinary Committee was right in imposing sanctions…In the circumstance, we dismiss the appeal filed by Ashantigold…” – GFA Appeals Committee, July 13, 2022. We’ve to strengthen the hands of the Ghana Football Association (GFA)’s Disciplinary Committee and the other judicial bodies of the GFA if we’re to […]
The National Sports Authority (NSA) has reportedly written to the leadership of the Ghana League Clubs Association (GHALCA) to inform the association that the Baba Yara Sports Stadium will not be available to be used for the GHALCA Top 4 tournament. Following a successful end to the 2021/22 Ghana Premier League season, GHALCA has confirmed […]
It’s difficult to establish whether the apology emanates from the Deputy Ashantigold Chief Executive Officer, Albert Commey, who emphatically said on Sunyani-based Space FM that, some 2021/22 Ghana Premier League (GPL) matches were fixed. Commey advised that we’ve to be truthful and not hypocrites. The apology letter retracting the above comment neither has a name […]
