Scheduling of Ghana Premier League games must be changed - Yusif Chibsah

Former Ghana international, Yusif Chibsah, believes the scheduling of Ghana Premier League games must be reconsidered.

The ongoing 2022/23 campaign has witnessed poor attendance at the various grounds.

However, according to the former Asante Kotoko midfielder, the scheduling of league matches must be revised for next season and also charged match officials to deliver at their utmost best in a bid to make the local league competitive and appealing.

"It is a whole lot of factors and for me, I personally think we should have a competitor analysis to see what are the other competing games with the local league, that is a huge factor," he told Citi Sports.

"One area that I also think should be taken a look at is the officiating, it has not been the best and I think that it is another issue which is discouraging people to come to the stadium.

"The fans think that some of the referees are not up to the task, and that is a huge factor discouraging people from watching football.

"This is a whole topic that needs to be discussed.
"The foreign games on the digital platforms are also posing a huge factor, it is posing a big competition for our local league," he added.

Meanwhile, the matchday 30 games will kick off at the various stadia this weekend. Aduana FC sit at the summit of the table with 51 points.
