All’s well that end’s well. The Georgetown Football Association is moving forwards after dealing satisfactorily with the internal issues affecting the body.
So said Kwabina Griffith, GFA Vice President with responsibility for technical and tactical development.
According to Griffith, the internal wrangling caused some of the GFA’s programmes to be stalled.
“It’s because of those differences that programmes were stalled for some time and the General Council quite rightfully said go and sort yourselves out and come back with a unified position as the earliest opportunity.”
Griffith, who three days ago had called on the executive of the GFC to resign en bloc if they failed to agree on a resolution to the problems, denied there was any power struggle within the executive of the association addinf that the most recent meeting was the most productive one.
“That meeting was by far the most productive meeting by far we have had in a very long time and I was particularly impressed by the level of maturity that executive members displayed at the meeting because what actually happened is that everyone’s views were taken into account and we came up with a programme that I think is stronger than any one of the individual proposals.”
The meeting he said was attended by executive members who had withdrawn from the association after several disagreements some of which was reported.
One of the problems that will be discussed at the level of the General Council is the points distribution during the Banks Premier League tournament which saw Santos launching a protest against Furta Conquerors.
“The executive has come up with a proposal to resolve the matter. We unanimously agreed to the plan which we are going to put to the General Council and I am very confident it will be accepted by the General Council, Santos and Fruta Conquerors,” he opined.
Griffith said he could not disclose what that agreement was as it would only be fair that the agreement is first made to the public and the disputed parties.
