BASH TAUNTS KOTOKO (GRAPHIC SPORTS, BACK PAGE)

AFTER guiding Kessben F/C to a historic victory over Kumasi Asante Kotoko last Sunday, coach Bashir Hayford appeared sarcastic, saying his “Bashirlistic” formula was too much for Isaac Opeele Boateng and his players to withstand.
“It was clear that they were confused with our game plan, and this tells you that it will take a good coach to prepare a team with so much talent”, Hayford said of Asante Kotoko when he spoke with me yesterday.
The 1-0 victory over Kotoko in the penultimate Glo Premier league match at the Anane Boateng Stadium at Abrankese was the first by Kessben F/C, a club formed by former Kotoko board member, Mr Kwabena Kesse.
Apparently hurt by the defeat, Kotoko’s Director of Operations went into a crisis meeting with the technical team to plan the way forward.
The Graphic Sports learnt that the meeting discussed the commitment level of some of the players of the champion club.
It would not be surprising if in the coming days some of the payers are placed on the transfer list.
