Ghana FA announces ruling on Hearts of Oak protest against Great Olympics

The GFA Disciplinary Committee has dismissed Accra Hearts of Oak’s protest against Great Olympics in relation to their Ghana Premier League Matchday 28 match.

The two city rivals locked horns in the Mantse derby at the Accra Sports Stadium few weeks ago with the game ending in a 1-1 draw.

After the clash, the Phobians claim the Dade boys’ left-back, Joshua Rhule was unqualified to feature in the duel and reported him to the Ghana Football Association’s Disciplinary Committee.

The DC rules that:

1. That the instant protest is dismissed.

2. That in accordance with Article 28(2)(b) of the GFA Premier League Regulations, Accra Great Olympics FC is not the guilty party in this instant case and the results of the Ghana Premier League match between Great Olympics FC and Accra Hearts of Oak SC shall stand.

3. That the Player Koomson Biney and/or Joshua Kwame Rhule and Koforidua Suhyen SC should be charged by the GFA Prosecutor.

4. That until the determination of the misconduct cases, the registration of Koomson Biney and/or Joshua Kwame Rhule are suspended with Immediate effect.

5. That should any party be dissatisfied with or aggrieved by this Decision, the party has within one (1) day of being notified of this Ruling to appeal to
the Appeals Committee of the Ghana Football Association.
