One can attribute the loss to the instability in the club prior to the game, as the playing body and the management were owed 8 months salaries and 5 months winning bonuses.
The ‘old players’ demonstrated their anger on Tuesday when they boycotted training ahead of their weekend game against Wa All Stars.
The Professional Footballers Association of Ghana stepped in to persuade the players, while the management of Hasaacas promised to settle part of their unpaid salaries, before they returned to training the following day.
Hasaacas as a big club with huge supporting base shouldn’t have been caught off card, but due to improper planning on the part of their management there were a lot of confusion in their camp prior to their humiliating sore line in the weekend.
How did they expect the clubs the players to live with an empty stomach and deliver for them? As the saying goes a hungry man is an angry man. The funny aspect is that after the ‘old players’ boycotted training, the management were able to find money from somewhere to clear two month salary arrears.
The leadership of Hasaacas should have proactive rather than being reactive to the situation that befell them. Now they have made Hasaacas make the head for the wrong reason as the team with the poorest performance on the opening day of the league.
One can argue that the 1977 league champions of Ghana dug their own grave for Wa All Stars to bury them.
