Hearts gets tough with loitering fans at Stadia

Accra, Feb 23, GNA - The Management of Accra Hearts of Oak have decided to get tough with fans who loiter at the gates during their matches.

The Ticketing and Security Committee of the Club has thus advised fans who have no business at the gates to desist from hovering around to avoid any acts of embarrassments.

A statement signed by Ashford Tettey Oku, Administrative Manager of the Club said Management has observed that some anti-social elements parade the gates under various sorts of guises and sometimes dupe unsuspecting fans.

"They also unlawfully succeed in getting fans to the stadium without paying the prescribed gate fees."

The statement said the Club intends to cooperate with the various security agencies to deal with the canker that has over the years affected the Club's coffers.
