PRESS RELEASE
The Ghana League Clubs Association (GHALCA) wishes to disassociate itself from the recent radio interviews granted by the Chairman of the Association, Mr. Kudjoe Fianoo, as follows:
1. That the EXCO has no problem with Mr. Fianoo expressing his personal opinions on any issue in Ghana Football though, there is a thin line between his personal opinion and what he expresses on behalf of the Association.
2. That GHALCA EXCO has no intention to stage a coup against him for expressing his personal views on recent happenings in Ghana Football.
3. That on 24th September this year, the Chairman led the EXCO to meet with the Parliamentary Select Committee on Youth and Sports and presented a paper on finding solutions to the poor performance of the Black Stars.
