Samuel Arthur, Justice Mensah, Emmanuel Gustav Addington and Alhaji Mustapha have been handed more than season suspension for verbally and physically attacking referee Eric Owusu Prempeh after their 2-1 defeat at home to the Mauve and Yellow at the Nduom Stadium in Elmina.

Arthur - a defender has been handed a combined 39 matches suspension with GHc5000 fine while striker Justice Mensah will serve 29 matches suspension with GHc5000.

Winger Alhaji Mustapha has also been handed 29 matches with a GHc5000 fine while midfielder Emmanuel Gustav Addington has been slapped with 29 matches suspension and a GHc5000 fine.

The four players took caution into the wind to attack the match officials after their team suffered defeat at home.

The players are to serve the suspensions concurrently.
