Win consistently to bring back fans to stadia - Asante Twum to Hearts, Kotoko

Published on: 16 February 2023

Communications Director of the Ghana Football Association (GFA), Henry Asante Twum, has told Asante Kotoko and Hearts of Oak to win consistently if they want their fans to return to the stadia.

The two most successful clubs in Ghana football history are struggling to attract supporters to their games in the Ghana Premier League.

He cited the meeting between the two sides during the COVID-19 truncated 2019/20 season, where Accra Sports Stadium was packed to capacity.

"Hearts of Oak and Kotoko will only attract the numbers when they are doing well," he told Akoma FM.

"Two seasons ago, Hearts played Kotoko at the Accra sports stadium and the stadium was almost full as at 11 am and this happened because both clubs were winning continuously, we can't say the same today, the only thing that can attract their fans is the results.

"But when you are inconsistent with your results, the fans will not come. Aside Kotoko beating Kotoku Royals and Accra Lions, tell me any other game they played convincingly to win.

"Same with Hearts, the clubs must start winning convincingly and consistently, you cannot struggle to win and expect the fans to fill the stadium. They (Kotoko and Hearts) must start winning convincingly and consistently, by so doing, the fans will come in their numbers."
