@Cassielforson You've done well. We have hope and believe in you and your administration 🙏

[Self Care ATM @youngkrain]

@iamrahmanosman I feel better seeing this piece from you. We have to change the whole system of the GFA.

[Self Care ATM @youngkrain]

Ghana football needs urgent help. Mediocrity is killing us, and athletes fear speaking up.
We saw what the GFA did to Sulley Muntari and Kevin-Prince Boateng for speaking out.
Mr. President, please include the GFA in your reset agenda - our football system has crashed.

[Gary Al-Smith @garyalsmith]

Yep. This is the real body showing its real face.

Imagine this is their reaction to a random audio that's gone viral.

Now, imagine how they have legally gone after journalists who have said things that they have been unable to prove, over the past couple of years — some of those things we KNOW are true, but couldnt get the affected persons or documents to come forward to corroborate.

Should we give you names of respected sports journos/pundits who dont bother doing that hard stuff anymore because of these suits? A few: Nabila. Songo. Julian. Atta Poku. And others.

You people want which sports journalists to speak to power? The majority of sports journos who are being paid GHS 5k a month, or less? Note: people like me, Akoto, Obama, BKB, Ayala, Fent, Rahman and a few others you know are not among the majority — our lifestyles are anot the norm at all.

The President of the Sports Writers Association of Ghana was here in the USA on the ticket of this same body. Yes, he is an incorruptible man, but how do you expect the up and coming sports journalist in a small station in Nkroful or JamesTown to have the courage to speak up with such optics?

You want the journalists whose media houses dont even have lawyers for normal cases, let alone defamation suits, you won't them to "speak truth to power"?

The same sports journos who suddenly have strange cars and motorbikes following them when they do "hot" programs? Strange phone calls speaking strange languages to them at strange hours?

Or @Chiefseiduadamu, who was OPENLY assaulted at a gathering by a bodyguard affiliated to this body, with witnesses present, and nothing came of it?

Or the ones, like me, whose ENTIRE stations got blacklisted from covering Ghana Premier League matches (when everyone else is given permission to do so, thereby denying us of important revenue) — simply because I did a video that criticised the GFA boss for working to go for a third term? Video here: https://t.co/jjdlMbZ6Ff

Because of the above video, my ENTIRE station has not been given accreditation to cover Black Stars matches by the GFA for almost a year now — and we have had to get accredited through third parties.

Read that again.

Are these the sports journalists whose lives, families and livelihoods are at stake that you expect to speak truth to power for you?

A whole @anasglobal — one of the greatest investigative journos in our country's history — was brought to his proverbial knees after investigating the GFA. His assistant was MURDERED. It didnt happen on Mars; it happened at Madina, in Accra, in Ghana.

You people — all of you — are not serious. Maybe some of you dont know this, so I'll forgive you.

But those of you who know this, and still expect us to work normally in such hostile conditions — you are all mad. Moabobɔ dam.

Properly empower journalists. And watch us do magic. Otherwise, dont waste our fucking time.

Have a good day.

Carlos Queiroz's World Cup wisdom powers Ghana's impressive campaign

Carlos Queiroz's vast World Cup experience is beginning to transform Ghana into one of the tournament's surprise packages, with the veteran coach once again proving that organisation, discipline and tactical intelligence can bridge the gap against supposedly superior opponents.

Queiroz's remarkable World Cup pedigree is once again taking centre stage, with the experienced Portuguese coach masterminding Ghana's outstanding start to the 2026 FIFA World Cup through discipline, tactical organisation and defensive excellence.

The 73-year-old is overseeing his fifth successive World Cup campaign and is drawing on decades of experience to turn the Black Stars into one of Africa's most resilient sides.

Ghana opened their campaign with a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Panama before frustrating tournament favourites England in a disciplined display that earned a deserved draw. Against the Three Lions, Queiroz's side produced one of the defensive performances of the tournament, with Thomas Partey, goalkeeper Benjamin Asare, Caleb Yirenkyi, Jordan Ayew, Antoine Semenyo and their teammates executing the game plan almost flawlessly.

England arrived as overwhelming favourites but found themselves repeatedly denied space and rhythm. Ghana congested the central areas, defended with impressive organisation and refused to allow England's creative players the freedom they usually enjoy.

It is a tactical blueprint that has become synonymous with Queiroz throughout his coaching career.

Those who followed his spell at Manchester United immediately recognised the familiar patterns. During his time as Sir Alex Ferguson's assistant between 2004 and 2008, Queiroz became renowned for his meticulous defensive preparation and obsessive attention to detail.

Former United players have revealed how he would place gym mats on the training ground to block off the exact spaces opponents preferred to attack, forcing his defenders to master positioning through endless repetition.

Former defender Mikael Silvestre once recalled how Paul Scholes regularly grew frustrated with the relentless tactical drills. Yet the painstaking work ultimately paid off, helping Manchester United shut down a star-studded Barcelona side on their way to the 2008 UEFA Champions League final.

Nearly two decades later, the same principles are paying dividends on football's biggest stage.

Against England, Ghana displayed exceptional compactness, limiting clear-cut opportunities while remaining dangerous on the counter-attack. Partey dictated the midfield battle, Yirenkyi, Sibo and Adjetey covered immense ground, Jordan Ayew led by example with his work rate, Semenyo continually stretched England's defence, while goalkeeper Benjamin Asare produced a composed display whenever called upon.

More importantly, the players demonstrated complete faith in their manager's methods. Every defensive movement appeared rehearsed, every pressing trigger carefully timed and every player fully aware of his responsibility.

Queiroz has long built his reputation on creating teams that are difficult to break down rather than relying solely on individual brilliance. His latest Ghana side reflects exactly that philosophy.

The Black Stars have already shown they can combine defensive resilience with clinical efficiency, first edging Panama before frustrating one of the favourites for the title. Those performances have strengthened belief that Ghana can compete with any opponent if they maintain the discipline and organisation that have become the hallmark of Queiroz's coaching.

As the knockout rounds approach, Ghana's greatest weapon may not simply be the quality of players such as Partey or Semenyo, but the wealth of experience possessed by a manager who has spent decades preparing teams for football's biggest occasions.

So far, Carlos Queiroz's World Cup know-how is proving every bit as valuable as individual talent.

🚨 Arsenal Legend Ian Wright on the Spence–Partey Handshake Incident:

🗣️ “I know a lot of people will disagree with me on this, but I wasn’t comfortable with what happened. Thomas Partey was there representing Ghana, standing in that line as a professional footballer, and I think he deserved the same basic respect that every other player received.

A handshake isn’t an endorsement of someone’s character, it isn’t a verdict, and it certainly isn’t a statement about legal matters. It’s simply a gesture of professionalism before a football match.

What worries me is how quickly people today are willing to make up their minds before processes have run their course. We all have opinions, and everyone is entitled to them, but there is a reason due process exists.

You cannot build a fair society on assumptions. If we start treating accusations as convictions, then we’re moving away from the principles of fairness that we expect in every other walk of life.

Djed Spence has every right to make his own decision, and nobody should force him to do something he doesn’t want to do. But if you’re asking for my view, I would have shaken Thomas Partey’s hand and then focused on the football. That’s what I would expect from any professional player. The game itself should always come first.

I’ve seen people praising the gesture as if it was some great act of courage, and others condemning it completely. For me, the bigger point is that respect has to be applied consistently. You can’t demand fairness for some people and then deny it to others.

Whether you like Thomas Partey or not, whether you support Ghana or not, the principle remains the same: every person deserves to be treated fairly until the facts are established.

Football is becoming too quick to judge and too slow to wait for the truth. That’s not a road I want the game to go down. My belief has always been simple: respect people, let the proper authorities do their work, and don’t turn a football pitch into a courtroom.”
