MAXWELLL KONADU WARNS KOTOKO (PAGE 31, FEB 6, 2010)

Wa All Stars coach Maxwell Konadu, has warned Kumasi Asante Kotoko to braze themselves up for one of their toughest battle ever in recent times at the Wa Stadium.
The two teams lock horns in topmost fixture of the Premier League tomorrow.
Konadu described Sundays encounter as a history-making one for the Wa lads.
He said All Stars had never beaten Kumasi Asante Kotoko since they qualified for the elite division and so the match between the two sides on Sunday at the Wa Stadium would be a fine opportunity for All Stars to break that jinx.
Coach Konadu said unlike previous matches where there was so much pressure on his players when playing Kotoko, the situation would be different this time and All Stars would not afford to lose this match.
Speaking to the Daily Graphic in Wa, Coach Konadu said with God on the side of All Stars victory would surely come their way.
He expressed disappointment that his boys could not collect all the three points when they played Kotoko in Kumasi during the first round saying “I love to play against Kotoko at their backyard”.
Commenting on the Glo Premier League and how it had gone for the club so far, coach Konadu admitted that it had not been an easy road, considering the teams on top of the table.
“This is a clear indication that the league has been very tough and so we are not leaving anything to chance. At least we hope to be among the first four clubs by the time the league comes to a close” he stated.
Meanwhile, supporters of Wa All Stars are in high spirits and have vowed to troop to the Wa Stadium in their numbers on Sunday.
They said now there was no big team or small team in the premier league as it pertained some years back, and therefore there was no turning back for All Stars.
