The President of King Faisal Alhaji Karim Gruzah has fumed at a directive by the Ghana football Association that Division One League clubs should pay GHC8,400 officiating fee before the 2015/2016 commences.
A GFA letter dated June 3, 2016, gave June 30, 2016, as the deadline for Division One clubs to settle the payments.
But Gruzah says the clubs have no avenues to neither generate revenues nor raise such monies to pay the officiating fees.
And want the clubs to disregard the FA directives and rather concentrate on how to generate revenue to fund the league.
“We are struggling to generate money to pay our players and buy fuel to travel to participate in our matches, so executives of the GFA should use part of their ex-gratia to pay for the officiating fees they are demanding,” fumed the Faisal bankroller." A Furious Gruzah said.
