Hearts' No show Act Goes Before DC

By The Game

10/31/2006 -

The Ghana Football Association has referred Accra Hearts of Oak's failure to report for their match-day-VII league game against Tema Youth to the disciplinary committee.

Accra Hearts of Oak failed to turn up for the game at the Tema Park though their opponents were present to honour the match.

Match referee, Listowell Lathbridge after 30 minutes of waiting on the field with players of Tema Youth, called off the match.

Ahead of that particular game, signals from the camp of Hearts of Oak had indicated that the Phobians were going to stay away from the game because of a purported court injunction on the league restraining the FA from going ahead with the matches.

But the Ghana Football Association on Friday, a day before the match had issued a statement that it had not received any court injunction on the league and subsequently stated that the seventh week matches should be honoured as such at all the league centres.
