Just what the doctor ordered

We won! We won!! We beat Egypt by 6 goals to 1. Proudest 90 Ghanaian minutes of my life. That’s the thing about football: it has the power to unite us, to get the whole nation high. It’s the new opium of the masses. Religion, well.. it isn’t opium anymore. In the West, it’s paracetamol; in Ghana, it’s crack. But football and what it does to us….. Yesterday for about 2 hours everybody forgot about the price of fuel, the rising cost of food, rent, water and the shitload of shit (excuse my french) we’re going through as a country. That’s the power of football.

Farewell Fergie

On Sunday, Sir Alex Ferguson said goodbye to the footballing world. One of the things he said was that now he could enjoy football rather than suffer through it with the team. Who is he kidding? #thankyousiralex

Ayews miss out

This Sunday, the Black Stars gave their Sudanese counterparts a 4-0 thrashing. However the Ayew brothers missed this game for reasons one can only speculate.

Referees

Referees are ruining the beautiful game of football.
