The paper has on its back page a story headed "WHERE ARE THE SPECTATORS". According to the story, Ghanaians are noted for their love and interest in football so much that, they talk, ague and even fight over it everywhere they gather to watch or discuss the game. The paper went on to express its shock about the poor spectator attendance at the on going African Youth Tournament in Accra and Kumasi because of the exorbitant gate fees being charged at both places. The paper suggested that a lot of football fans will have loved watching every single game at the stadia, but the exorbitant fees being charged have prevented numerous fans from going to the stadium to watch the game. They are left with staying at home, offices or public places to watch and cheer their teams on the screen whilst some listen to commentary being run on radio. The paper concludes that, a commentator at one of the games suggested to the Ghana Football Authority (GFA) to open the gates so that people could go and watch the matches free instead of depriving them the chance of going to watch and cheer their favourite teams.
