Ebusua Dwarfs coach JE Sarpong has denied he threatened to quit over allegation of sabotage.
The former Liberty Professionals trainer was left incensed after his side's 1-0 defeat at New Edubiase and hinted he could resign from his role.
He claimed he was being sabotaged and gave the clearest hint he could resign.
But after his side held in-form Hearts to a pulsating 0-0 draw on Sunday, he has backtracked, claiming he has been misrepresented.
“I want to correct an impression; I never said that I will quit Dwarfs. What I said was that if the players are not committed then I will advice myself. I never used the word quit. I will advice myself perhaps by sleeping in the house or perhaps by giving them suspension, I mean there are many ways of killing a cat." he told the media
“But journalists picked it out of context and tried to make a whole lot of noise about it. If you hear anything about a coach, call the coach to clarify it before publishing it.
"For me we are colleagues in the job is like policemen and the drivers, they are always colleagues. The media and the coaches are one but whereby the coaches are lambasted, the next time you call the coach for an interview he will decline."
"Some are even saying Bashir (Hayford) is "too known" and all that. It's not proper, is not proper. We are not saying they should not criticize us but it should be constructive to correct and put the coaches and players on their toes."
He added: "When it happened like that it demoralized the players. When they saw it they said is the coach leaving us? Is our father leaving us? You see the kind of problem you brought into the team. I had to talk to them , Nana Butler had to come and talk to them about the fact that it wasn't true. So that is the result you saw".
