The club which pleaded not guilty to the charge acknowledged the breach in the COVID-19 protocol but argued that they could not be held liable for that.
“The club acknowledged that the protocols were breached but denied culpability. They argued that responsibility for maintaining security and orderliness had been passed to the GFA/Regional Authority based on a re-categorisation by the GFA”.
But the Disciplinary Committee disagreed and believed maintaining security at the stadium was always the responsibility of the home team, hence Olympics could not be exonerated.
“The Disciplinary Committee disagrees and finds, to the contrary, that security always remains primary responsibility of the home team regardless of match category.”
Meanwhile Coach Ignatius Osei-Fosu of Techiman Eleven Wonders has also been cautioned by the Disciplinary Committee and warned of stiffer sanctions should he breach the GFA Premier League regulations.
The coach was said to have made some comments against referee Charles Bulu which the committee considered as “offensive and ungentlemanly” and will suffer severe sanctions should he repeat that again.
