Christmas week

As I left the pitch on Saturday I requested that all the coaches to turn up on time to todays weekly meeting due to begin at one. As is often the case, when I arrived to the office none of the coaches had arrived. After a couple of phonecalls I established Kofi was out finding evidence for our protest cases, and Noah was at the GFA headquarters also working on the protest cases. The other two coaches did not pick up their phones. I am currently waiting to see if the meeting will take place.

Noah also informed me that our protest cases will be heard tomorrow, meaning if all goes to plan we will be playing our final league match this weekend. The round robin tournament should take place next Wedensday. It is typically frustrating that the GFA finally get themselves organised just in time for the Christmas period.

The junior teams played in friendlies, with the Under 10s losing 6-5, and the rest of the teams claiming victories. After the Under 10s game the opposition coach took it upon himself to come and gloat to our team. In typical Ghanaian style a 20 minute argument erupted as their coach requested that next time they play against our Under 14s. Our players responded that as we won 3-1 last time, we had won on aggregate.
