Mr Kwame Opare Addo, the Public Relations Officer for Accra Hearts Of Oak has said Accra Great Olympics cannot be blamed for exercising, what he described as their “legal right” after putting the 2017/18 Ghana Premier League (GPL), season on hold.
The management of Great Olympics lead by the Mr. Commodore Mensah - General Manager, on Monday afternoon served the Ghana Football Association (GFA) with a court injunction letter, barring the Association from holding any activity that had got connection with the GPL.
The GFA after receiving the letter had to cancel the launch of the new league season which was fixed for the Tuesday evening at the Football Association’s headquarters in Accra.
With the latest twist to events, it is still unclear when an already delayed 2017/18 season would start.
Mr Addo, in an interview with the GNA Sports admitted that even though the timing was bad, Olympics had done nothing out of the law.
“On Saturday I heard he (Commodore) was going to do this before the league starts. Hearing this news this afternoon makes me feel Olympics have done what they feel is in their legal right,” Mr Addo said.
“I do not think anybody should blame them for the action they took, so far as it is within the law. We can only complain with regards to the timing but not the action.”
“The timing on the contrary will affect planning of coaches as well as various plans of teams,” he added.

Hypocrites. You do this to Ghana Football and you go complaining about GFA. Which serious business entity will pump money into this ***barred word***. Almost every year a club goes to one court or another. Club owners who are not equipped to handle teams form clubs and come crying for help from the GFA.Have you ever heard of this in any European league. Managing a football club is not a full time job. Look around the big clubs in the world, every owner has a full time job raising money to run their clubs. Running a club is not easy, if you are not ready resign and become a spectator. Stop ruining our league ( CLUB OWNERS) and stop blaming The GFA.
