The Israeli said his team, who lost 2-1 to Senegal on Monday, had to
train at Oyala instead of Mongomo, where they face Algeria on Friday and
also South Africa next week.
"We had to drive one hour while Algeria could train near the hotel," an irritated Grant told reporters on Thursday. "They change the venue of the training, both of us need to train one hour from the hotel a day before the game. We asked to come closer, they didn't let us do it."
The journey was not helped by a sub-standard bus, the former Chelsea manager said. "I am sorry to say you need to see our bus. It is a bus which behaves like a ship.
"We are the only team that receives this bus, the other team have a good bus. So when I say good words about the organisation I want you to know about the other things."
The coach, who has also managed Partizan Belgrade, West Ham United and Israel, said he would not been attending news conferences in future, adding he had been given little notice about timings and that he needed to be with his players.
