        Here we go again with the black thing... Am black but I strongly believe they werent here because they werent good enough. Trust me... My country Nigeria will do anything to have a black Nigerian as our Head Coach but they always under perform more than the white folks.

        My responce may be disturbing, but is is the Truth; The problem has always been LEADERSHIP. Europeans have placed stumbling blocks in Africa's way trying to keep them in a needy position to this day.

        Ghana’s greatest accolades - four continental titles (1963, 1965, 1978 and 1982) - were obtained under black managers.

        Because of racism what else? Even our leaders don't trust black managers to go far in any tournament so they go for white.. Its everywhere.
