I think Kotoko and Hearts planned it. I think if Hearts were in danger of relegation Kotoko would not have protested.

Hahahaha, GFA disciplinary committee called Hearts as SNITCHERS (Beneficiary informants).They said Hearts snitched on Berekum Chelsea who failed to protest on their match against Kotoko and was the only club who could have protested.

I wrote an article titled Hearts filed an AFUOM protest and said the same thing that, the only team that could have filed a protest was Berekum Chelsea since the said next official match was KOTOKO VS BEREKUM CHELSEA and Hearts supporters who called Kotoko officials and supporters as illiterates even failed to grasp that elementary concept.

Kotoko won on two points.

1. Hearts vs Kotoko was not the gfa next official match but Berekum. Ashantigold realized that and that is why it withdrew it's protest but relegated threatened Hearts wanted points the cheapest way.

2 GFA disciplinary committee also said the ELITE cup competition was an official gfa organized competition and it is on this that Kotoko six points were restored.

Deja vu! Matches are won on the field of play not in a four corner room just as election are won at polling stations. Hearts was on the verge of drowning and needed a life jacket at all cost, even a straw could suffice. They did have it the cheap way and now have to vomit the illegitimate points. Poor Hearts.

Had they due for relegation, Kotoko would not be given these points back. It's all biases against the smaller teams.

I have never forgotten your "Hearts Filed AfuomProtest" and the name calling from the opposite side. You gave a vivid education and explanation with emphasis to every point you raised. Your education, explanations and emphasis are the very ones used by the Appeal Committee of the GFA.
Shame on you GFA Discipline Committee and to Accra Hearts of Oaks, LEARN THE RULES AND REGULATIONS SO YOU DON'T FILE AN AFUOM PROTEST. Good luck next time!

Ghana premier league is very backward and it has a long way to go. When a team used unqualified player it to face the punishment squarely. It's not justified when all the books tells the truth in this matter and the laws does not apply adequately. Hearts of Oak does not need those 3 points but since the GFA knows point blank that kotoko used unqualified player they will be filling guilty to work as a referee, a match commissioner and an executive committee member.

So the argument that Berekum Chelsea could have protested against kotoko and won is true per a contributors argument,then it still remains true that the kotoko management didn't do their work well. They better sit up

Berekum Chelsea did not file a protest because they won their match against Kotoko by 3-0 score so there was nothing to gain in terms of points and goals aggregate.

According to GFA rules, after the Berekum match, the GFA should have deducted three points from Kotoko if Kotoko did not have a legitimate case on the ELITE cup competition being an official gfa organized competition.

Kotoko officials and their lawyers who Hearts officials and supporters have branded as illiterates who do not understand the rules turned out to be right against the so called educated Hearts people.

What about Hearts team charged in one of their African cup competition for stealing towels and bedsheets in a hotel room?

Maybe you supporters of this beach sitting team need to watch porno to ease tension instead of armed robbery. Do you remember Hearts supporters robbing Kotoko in their hotel in Accra?

The last time I checked, watching porno is not a crime.

No Hearts player was charged for stealing bedsheets and towels because they are very professional and disciplined and they never snatch anybody's watch SARONG. It's you kotoko fans who create all these makeshift stories to tarnish the name of our beloved Accra Hearts of Oak. If you think like a kid then you buy into all these craps. Now all the beachshitters I know are the Ashanti people who migrated to Accra and ends up at Tema station.

So are you saying Don Bortey did not steal his team mates watches in Israel? When did you start watching soccer?

Hearts players stole bedsheets and towels in a hotel in one Africa country.
