Techimanà City FCà have writtenà to the Ghana FA to complain ofà assault theyà describe as ââ¬Ëbarbaricââ¬â¢ in their second tier league match against BA United on Sunday.
Officials of Techiman City claim they were left with no effective security in their league match played at the Coronation Park in Sunyani for which they seek full investigation and sanctions from the Ghana FA.
Below is a press statement from the club:
"The management of Techiman City F/C wishes to expressà it'sà highestà displeasure with the happenings at the recently bannedà sunyanià coronation park before,during and after our division one league match against BA United on the 2nd February 2014.
"Techimanà City F/C à believes what happened at theà sunyanià coronation parkà was highly unacceptable in association football,barbaric and a clear exhibition of wickedness.
"We are particularly unhappy about the assault meted out to our coach Nana Adarkwah,playersà and other officials by fans of BA United.
"Our bus was prevented from enteringà the Sunyani Coronation park by BA United fans.This was in spite of the fact that atà at the Pre-match technical meeting,it was agreed that Techiman Cityà F/C should come through the main entrance to the stadium.It was through theà effort of some security and executives of BA United that we were finally given access.
"The main VIP standsà was openedà without a security officer,for fans of BA Unitedà to haveà free access to the VIP stands toà verbally and physically assault the Executives ofà Techiman City F/C who as a resultà hadà to leave the stadium before the end of the game.
"This to us was a serious security breach and it placed the life of our President and other executives under serious danger.
"We are therefore calling on the football body(GFA)to investigate our concerns and come out with the appropriate sanctions against anyone foundà liable for such shameful acts.
