Infrastructural Development

I wish to take this opportunity to congratulate the newly commissioned board of directors of Accra Hearts of oak,as well as wishing them seasonal felicitation of merry christmas and prosperity in the ensuing year.

It is an established fact that since the formation of the great football club much had been achieved on local and international scene,in terms of trophies and honours.

Most of the club?s administrators,technical handlers,players,etc.had performed creditably in their various field of endeavours for the upliftment and betterment of the nation?s soccer.

The organisation of the supporters grouping into CHAPTERS spurred other football clubs in the country to emulate that laudable and formidable venture.This goes to buttress a point that Accra Hearts of oak blazes a trail for every department of the nation?s soccer.

Thus oldest existing football club in the country,the first FC to annex local organised league trophy in 1958,the first club to win local league cups in six successive years,the first club to win African Champions league and Super Cup in 2000, and the maiden African Confederation cup was also won in 2003,etc,etc. All these achievements and honours depict that Accra Heart of oak is indeed a great club,whose deeds and feats are unsurpass in the country as far as soccer is concerned.

As such, I wish to humbly suggest to the new board of directors to concentrate more on the infrastructural developments like stadium,club house,gymnasium,etc ,thus the management team which the directors are planinng to put in place permanently should be directed towards such developmental goals, as lack of such facilities do not speak well of the august club.
