“Spoken to a couple of Kotoko players. Apparently, they're in overwhelming support of what the club chairman did. They admit their performance on the day was not a Kotoko level. They agree with Dr Kyei bcos he's never spoken to them in this manner and he does a lot good for them”, Saddick posted on Twitter.
