The Communications Director of the Ghana Football Association, Henry Twum Asante has found solution to Asante Kotoko and Hearts of Oak’s problems of having empty stadium during league games.
The communicator believes that both club’s poor performance in the league is the reason why fans do not throng the stadium to watch their games and that, they will have to start winning to attract fans at their games.
He cites examples of other Premier League clubs who get their stadium packed to rafters due to their exceptional performance and calls for both club’s to start winning convincingly to nib this in the bud.
“I don’t agree with those who think that attendance at GPL centers is low. If you base your analysis on numbers at the Kumasi and Accra stadia, then the person will be wrong. I have personally been to games at Bechem on several occasions and attendance is very encouraging, the same at Nsuotre, Anyinase, and Samartex,” Henry Twum Akoma FM.
“Hearts of Oak and Kotoko will only attract the numbers when they are doing well. Two seasons ago, Hearts played Kotoko at the Accra sports stadium and the stadium was almost full as at 11 am and this happened because both clubs were winning continuously, we can’t say the same today, the only thing that can attract their fans is the results.”
“But when you are inconsistent with your results, the fans will not come. Aside Kotoko beating Kotoku Roayals and Accra Lions, tell me any other game they played convincingly to win.”
“Same with Hearts, the clubs must start winning convincingly and consistently, you cannot struggle to win and expect the fans to fill the stadium. They (Kotoko and Hearts) must start winning convincingly and consistently, by so doing, the fans will come in their numbers.”
Asante Kotoko are on the road to Nsoatre to face Nsoatreman FC and Hearts of Oak will welcome Aduana Stars at the Accra Sports Stadium for Match Day 18 encounter of the GPL.
