Just wondering how people think the Ebusua Dwarfs will go in the zonal national middle league for promotion?

I thought their 4-0 win over Starke at the Robert Mensah Stadium showed some great signs.

Tarkwa United still look the team to beat IMHO though.

It's all happening in the Ghana Football Association's zonal playoffs this year!

Some information on the big game coming up! Can't wait!

When does soccer season in Ghana finish? Will they still be playing early next year?

It starts in November and runs through to July with playoffs obviously being around now.

I'm tipping the Hearts of Lions might go a couple of steps further than last season.
Hard to see another season like last though, the evenness of the comp was just about unprecedented I'd say!
I'm still amazed Heart of Oak still got up last year, Kotoko and to a lesser degree the Lions could have counted themselves as quite unlucky IMHO.

You should spread your horizons a bit more mate!
At least you have heard of them now, isn't it grand learning about something new?

I think yours is the authoritative opinion on the Ghana Football Association Wedgie! No need to use In My Humble Opinion! I'm sure you'll keep us up to date with all the goings on at this exciting time of the year in Ghana. I bet Michael Essien is all over it as well! I'd imagine it would be quite an exciting style of football being played with attack being the best form of defence?

Spot on with the attacking style of play, its a typical African comp and I really enjoy that style.
Ghana soccer has had a reputation in the past as being a bit corrupt but I'm hoping they're over that by now!
Ghana's been on a huge improvent spiral with their national team the Black Stars who had some good results at the last World Cup. It was a pretty good result being voted the 13th best team. That was 3 in front of Australia!
Been a long time between drinks as far as the African cup goes but they are the 2nd most successful country of all time.
I love the derivitives of their national teams name for the other national teams they have too, the Black Starlets, Black Satellites, Black Meteors, you'd think they played out of Cape Caneveral!

I watch a product of Ghanian football every week at fulham - John Pantsil - he has become a bit of a cult figure at the cottage! He does a lap of honour after every home win clapping the crowd - they love it!
