Balloting for Hearts/Kotoko match fixed for Tuesday

Accra, March 4, GNA - The Professional League Board of the Ghana Football Association (GFA) will on Tuesday, March 8, conduct a balloting exercise to determine the venue for the decider for the first four positions of the 2004 zonal Premier league.

Kotoko and Hearts are to engage in a decider to determine which of them will be declared the over-all winner and the runners up of the 2004 novelty zonal league, whilst Heart of Lions will battle King Faisal for the third and fourth positions.

Kotoko and Hearts won the top spots in Zone A and B respectively with Faisal and Lions picking up the second positions in their respective zones as well.

The balloting will be conducted at the Ghana Telecom "Care For You Center", Cantonments in Accra at 2:00pm.

In a related development, the PLB has sent a reminder to both Hearts and Kotoko of the proposed decider scheduled for March 13, and that date is still pending.

It has therefore called on the clubs to get themselves ready for the matches scheduled to be played on Sunday 13 March at both the Kumasi and the Ohene Djan Sports stadium in Accra.
