Avram Grant says he will not apologize for bulls***t comments

Black Stars coach says he did not apologize for his bulls***t comments because there is no need to

The former Chelsea coach asked Ghanaians to concentrate on football and not the bulls***t, a comment that appeared to have been made in reaction to calls from the media for the Israeli to stay in the country instead of his many travels to Europe.

Grant said:

“If this nation will concentrate on the football and not the bull***t, and just the football because there is a lot of passion, we can reach higher, high level. It is a long term target ,but it’s achievable”

The comments did not go down well with Ghanaians who made their feeling about the Black Stars coach’s ‘bulls***t comments” known.

Avram Grant however states he has no reason to apologize to Ghanaians claimin his comments were taking negatively. He backed his point with the fact that he has said similar things in an interview with Sky and also speaks to his children in the same manner.

The Black Stars coach speaking at UGBS on Friday night said:

“I didn’t apologize because I don’t need to apologize. I didn’t insult anybody and I don’t insult. I you follow my career I never insult anybody.They took it out of contest. It’s a word I didn’t know that here it’s not …

“If you see my interview with Sky, if you see how I speak with my children, we always say cut the bullshit.

“I don’t know why people took it for negative side because there was no meaning of negative.”
