Kotoko coach Steve Polack considering a possible boycott of 2017 President Cup match against Hearts

Published on: 20 June 2017

Asante Kotoko coach Steve Polack wants his side to overlook the second leg of the President Cup due to fixture congestion.

Kotoko after qualifying to the next stage of the MTN FA Cup will play more games- some of which are premier league games.

Coach Polack is not happy to play what he describes as a non-beneficial clash against the bitterest rivals in Kumasi.

"We shouldn't have a game on the 2nd of July but all of a sudden they have come out with that President Cup game [against Hearts of Oak]," he bemoaned in an interview with Kumasi-based Light FM

"I think it isn't the right thing to do because we could play against Hearts of Oak six times this year.

"Two in the league, another two game in the Independence Cup, President Cup and we may face in the MTN FA Cup, which is too much for every team"

"So it's something we need to discuss with the management before Monday.

"Am against that game and hopefully we don't honour the game".
