Asante Kotoko spokesman Kwaku Ahenkorah feels the club is being cheated with the tampering of referees and has warned of reprisal attacks which will make Ghana football ungovernable.

The waiting to be dethroned Premier League champions are still fuming over referee Joseph Lamptey’s call to disallow what appears a perfect goal in their FA Cup final defeat to Medeama on Sunday.

Winger Richard Mpong headed in off an Eric Donkor cross but referee Lamptey, aided by his assistant A.S Malik ruled out the goal for what is suspected to be an unclear infringement against goalkeeper Muntari Tagoe.

Kotoko now feel there is a deliberate ploy to cheat the side off victories – stating precedence.

The club’s spokesman has warned off reprisal attacks once they get ‘the slightest hint’ of anything untoward in the Disciplinary Committee ruling in the Hearts of Oak case expected on Tuesday.

“I want to serve this warning. If the ruling comes and we get the slightest hint that something went amiss, we will make Ghana football ungovernable,” he told Nhyira FM.

“Kotoko is prepared to receive the verdict once we realize all the rules, laws and precedence were followed.

“But we sense that the system is gradually going against us with yesterday’s game another example.

“So I will declare that if the ruling comes and we have the slightest hint of something untoward, we will make Ghana football ungovernable.

“We know things are happening with referee tampering and all but we remain calm for now.

“However people should be aware this is a big club and cannot be treated in this manner. Otherwise in some time to come, we will show our might in Ghana football.”
