Immediate past coach of Ghana’s Black Stars, James Kwasi Appiah says coaching Asante Kotoko will be difficult than handling the Black Stars.

Appiah whose second stint with the Black Stars ended December 31, 2019 and has since been replaced by Akonnor says managing Asante Kotoko is difficult than the Black Stars.

In an interview with the Accra based Kasapa FM, Kwasi Appiah argued that the passion that Kotoko fans use to support their club is more intense than that of the Black Stars and their aggressive nature can be difficult for every coach to handle, especially when positive results are not coming.

"Coaching Kotoko is very difficult, I will say it's even difficult than the Black Stars. The supporters of the club are very passionate and so whether you are a coach or a player they expect you to live up to expectations."

"As a coach of Kotoko, you live with the supporters in the same town, find them at the training grounds almost every day So if you are lucky and things go on well, you will become the happiest man alive but if things go sideways, then you will find your elf in deep waters because the supporters will always be on you."
