Ghana League Clubs Association (GHALCA) Chairman Kudjoe Fianoo has entreated the fans of both Hearts and Kotoko to desist from coming to the stadium ahead of Sunday's Super Clash in the Ghana Premier League.
The first Super Clash of the season will be played behind closed doors due to the COVID-19 outbreak in the West African country.
There have been calls for the Ghana FA to give a special dispensation to the game to enable the supporters to watch the first biggest football match of the season.
However, the Ghana FA has stuck to its earlier decision on the game being played behind closed doors despite pleas from the fans.
Kudjoe Fianoo has added his voice to the directive from the Ghana FA and has called on the fans to respect the protocols.
“We were scared that government will ban football because of the non-compliance from some of the clubs that is why the FA brought the ban”, he said in an interview.
“We are still engaging the stakeholders on this issue on the way forward. It is sad that the Hearts-Kotoko game will be played behind closed doors. I will plead with the supporters to stay home and comport themselves so next time they can allow the fans back in”, he added.
