| Coach Steven Polack and Godwin Ablordey |
It’s in fact, one of the major contributing factors to the largely under-developed nature of our domestic leagues. Having comprehensive plans for the growth of our clubs and seeing to the successful implementation of these plans will have a telling effect on the looks of our clubs and leagues.
That’s why I was moved by the report that, Kotoko have made changes in their technical team. First, the Management must be commended. The changes are in line with the “Vision of the club’s Management to restructure, strengthen and sharpen the focus of [the] senior and developmental teams” I read.
That’s impressive. Team Manager, and CAF License ‘A’ Coach, Godwin Ablordey is the new Technical Director of the Youth Team. Former Kotoko captain, Henry Ohene Brenya is the new Team Manager. Steven Polack maintains Head Coach position with his Akakpo Patron, also a former Kotoko player, as his Assistant. Another former player, Stephen Oduro is the Welfare Manager.
For a club that lacked firm technical direction at some point last season, the changes should be seen as healthy. In terms of managerial experience, questions can be asked as to how Ohene Brenya and Stephen Oduro will fare in their new fields but given their rich knowledge of Kotoko as ex-players, they shouldn’t have problems in their respective offices.
For me, regardless of how poor the Management handled Coach Michael Osei’s case last season, when he was sent to the Youth Team, I insist that, Mickey should have taken the job not alone to prove a point, but also, I had the premonition that, Zdravko Logarusic wasn’t going to stay on for long, and that, Mickey definitely would’ve been recalled.
I chipped in that to explain my position that, Godwin Ablordey must graciously accept his new portfolio and work assiduously on the club’s youth team. It has to be pointed out however, that, if Ablordey will be successful, much will depend on the sort of direction the Management offers in formulating tried and tested youth development policies for his department, which is crucial.
On the surface, Ablordey, Oduro, Brenya and Kotoko as a whole, have everything to succeed. What I’m not convinced of is the level of support they would receive from the Management, which so far, hasn’t demonstrated the right administrative shrewdness – that is, the thinking and planning needed to return the mighty Asante Kotoko to the top echelons of African club football.
The Management’s mandate in November 2016 was clear: “To reshape the administrative structure of the club to infuse professionalism and competence at all levels of its operations…To consolidate the position of Kotoko at the top of the domestic league and advance further to take its rightful place among the elite clubs of continental African soccer”.
This certainly can’t be achieved in a year. And it can conveniently be said that, there’s still more time. The plain truth is, administratively, there hasn’t been enough evidence to be sure that, Kotoko can compete favourably on the continent any time soon. Changes in the administrative setup and pragmatic proof of the direction the club is being taken to will also be helpful ahead of the new season.
Myles was a 20 year-old man who was brought to the emergency room by the campus police of the college from which he had been suspended several months ago. A professor had called and reported that Myles had walked into his classroom, accused him of taking his tuition money and refused to leave. I was as shocked as a father, Although Myles had much academic success as a teenager, his behavior had become increasingly odd during the past year. He quit seeing his friends and no longer seemed to care about his appearance or social pursuits. He began wearing the same clothes each day and seldom bathed. He lived with several family members but rarely spoke to any of them. When he did talk to them, he said he had found clues that his college was just a front for an organized crime operation. He had been suspended from college because of missing many classes. His sister said that she had often seen him mumbling quietly to himself and at times he seemed to be talking to people who were not there. He would emerge from his room and ask his family to be quiet even when they were not making any noise.I could not stand the shame of my son illness so I decide to consult some of my africa friends at work , and then Tasha introduced me to Dr. Itua who uses her herbal medicines to cure her Hiv and Prostate Cancer after the herbal medicine consumption.
