The General Manager of Asante Kotoko, Nana Coker has put up an explanation as to why Kotoko decided to choose the Accra Sports Stadium as their home ground.
The Baba Yara Sports Stadium was closed down recently and fans largely expected Kotoko to switch to the Len Clay Sports Stadium but they opted to use the Accra Sports Stadium instead.
“It is true we have chosen Accra sports stadium as our new venue for the rest of the season”
“We chose Accra over other places due to the fact that we believed we have a lot of supporters in the Greater Accra region and in terms of travelling we felt Accra is the most convenient place”
“We are not bothered by the fact that Hearts of Oak plays at that same venue, we believe we can survive there”, he told Ashh FM.
He added; “We have arranged and talks are in place to inform the FA so that all our home games will be played at night under the flood light”
“This is purely management decision but there is a supporters leader who is also part of management and by so doing there wasn’t any need to involve supporters”.
