GFA ExCo member Randy Abbey blasts Hearts Of Oak for fielding U-20 players in GHALCA G6 competition

Ghana FA Executive Committee member, Dr Randy Abbey, has voiced dissatisfaction with Hearts of Oak’s approach to the ongoing GHALCA G6 competition.

The Phobians fielded their young players for the competition and lost all of their games by significant margins, including the 4-0 loss against Berekum Chelsea on Wednesday.

The FA Cup holders lost their opening game 3-1 to Tarkwa-based Medeama SC.

The former Ghana Football Association spokesman feels Hearts of Oak have disrespected the competition by fielding unknown players.

According to him, the team could have withdrawn from the mini tournament.

“You don’t disrespect your team and tradition this way. You don’t disrespect an association this way. You don’t disrespect your fans this way,” he told Original FM.

Reports also revealed while the second team were engaged in the GHALCA G6, the senior team were playing the club’s oldies.

Hearts of Oak are currently preparing for the return of the Ghana Premier League, which begins on September 9.
