Ghana Premier League sides have sent an SOS petition ahead of the Ordinary Congress of the Ghana Football Association on Thursday to get only three teams relegated from the league five teams, Footballghana.com can report.
Both Premier and Division One League clubs want a reduction of number of the teams that will be relegated from the elite and lower divisions.
Congress approved an 18-team league with a five-team relegation at its extraordinary congress on October 25 during the Normalisation period.
But after a thorough engagements, the clubs have resolved to get the number reduced to three.
While the clubs want an 18-team league structure maintained, relegating an astonishing five teams appear to be on the high side- leading to the decision to petition the Ghana FA.
The motion will be put to Congress for deliberation and will require 75% of Congress composition to be accepted and approved.
It appears the clubs accepted the proposal from the GFA Normalisation Committee in a bid to prevent a further extension.
