Our referees use their Discretion Selfishly - Jimmy Cobblah.
Inter Allies Coach Jimmy Cobblah

Head Coach of Inter Allies Jimmy Cobblah is worried about the level of officiating in the Ghana Premier League after his first game in charge ended in a 1-0 defeat at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium.

Inter Allies suffered their 7th away defeat of the season to Kumasi Asante Kotoko in week 13 of the Ghana Premier league which did not come good to Coach Cobblah.

Reacting to their loss, Jimmy Cobblah reckoned that some Ghanaian referees act selfishly.

"The boys faught, it was just unfortunate that we lost due to bad officiating. I think that sometimes our referees use their discretion selfishly and that is my problem" he said.

Referee Cecil Fletcher awarded Kotoko a penalty after substitute Elvis Amoh was brought down in the box.

Captain Amos Frimpong made no mistake from the spot as he converted convincingly to hand Kotoko the only goal of the game.

Inter Allies were reduced to ten men. Striker Sulley Mohammed was sent off after picking a second booking for time wasting leaving Coach Cobblah unhappy.

Inter Allies will welcome Berekum Chelsea in match day 14 of the Ghana Premier league which will be Jimmy Cobblah's second game in charge.
