Ebusua Dwarfs apologise following threats by their fans against match officials
Ebusua Dwarfs management have apologised on behalf of their fans who have issued threats against the match officials for Hearts of Oak encounter on Sunday.
The club disassociated itself from the club's condemnable behaviour before apologising to the Ghana Football Association and the officials.
Dwarfs who are fighting relegation face off with leaders Hearts of Oak in what promises to be a thrilling contest at the Cape Coast stadium.
But ahead of the game, the lives of the match officials are in danger as some supporters have threatened to beat up them if the result doesn't go in the club' favour.
Dwarfs, very mindful of what their fans are capable of, have written to assure the GFA that it will offer maximum assistance to the Security officials to ensure an incident-free match.
“We wish to disassociate ourselves from the contents of the attached video in which a few Supporters of our club have issued out threats against the Match Officials appointed for our Sunday crucial match against Accra Hearts of Oak S/C," part of the letter read.
"We are also appalled at the unkind words used against the Management of the GFA and apologise for that.
"We are praying fervently for the Match Officials to perform excellently to the satisfaction of all parties.
"We wish to promise the Management of the GFA that, we shall offer maximum support to the Security Personnel who will be deployed to ensure an incident-free match.”
"We wish to promise the Management of the GFA that, we shall offer maximum support to the Security Personnel who will be deployed to ensure an incident free match.”
The club has also warned Bob Stephens and fans who were found in the video issuing threats to the Match Officials to stay away from the Cape Coast Stadium on the matchday or risk being apprehended by the Police.
In the second round, Dwarfs suffered three points deduction after their game against Legon Cities was abandoned after match officials felt unsafe.
