Accra (Greater Accra) 11 June 2002 - Twelve players of Accra Great Olympics have been hit by the disciplinary rod of the Interim Management Committee (IMC) as part of measures to streamline the club.
Among the players affected are J.B. Danquah and one-time hardworking Kobina Dodzi who have been suspended for two months. Three other players suspended for two months are Frankie Ansah, Fatawu Barnes and James Amarquaye Amartey. The suspension of the five players is the result of their acts of gross indiscipline and apparent lack of commitment to the club.
In another move, seven players have been put on the transfer list. They are David Larkotey Lartey, Albert Nkansah, Samuel Ayitey, David Sarkodie, Joshua Quarcoopome, Nathan Quarshie and Aziz Otoo.
Mr Frank Davies, Secretary of the club said the seven players who have been transferred have the liberty to negotiate with any club of their choice for onward release. He however, expressed the management’s appreciation to them for their services and urged them to hand over any club properly in their possession at the Secretariat.
Olympics chairman, R.O. Solomon noted that the latest trend of events in the club was part of his management’s aim of institution discipline in the club. He called on all well-meaning supporters of the club to help champion the crusade of reviving Olympics.
The Olympics chairman noted that the club’s management must be firm in reorienting the players since as managers they must learn to apply management principles. “What is important now is for all our supporters to rally behind us and success and glory will be ours at the end of the day,” he added.

Accra (Greater Accra) 11 June 2002 - With less than tow weeks for the registration of players by the Ghana Football Association to end, league leaders, Hearts of Oak has requested for the International Transfer Certificate (ITC) of Ishmael Addo.
Investigations conducted by the club’s bi-weekly mouthpiece ‘Hearts News’ revealed that, the club has requested for the ITC of the three-time goalking to enable them make his services available to his mother club. A letter to that effect has been channelled through the Ghana Football Association (GFA).
Bastia, the French side, which took on Addo on a loan agreement, failed to renew their interest in the player after six months of loan. They are therefore obliged to return the player back to Hearts.
Addo’s ITC is expected to arrive by the end of this week for early registration in order to feature him in the titanic clash against Kotoko in Kumasi. Addo, who is currently in the country and is expected to start training with Hearts soon, is keen in rejoining his club to re-launch his career.
The headcoach of Hearts, Herbert Addo, has already expressed interest in having the former goalking to beef up his squad and believes Ishmael would contribute enormously to the Phobian pursuits this year. His inclusion in Hearts’ present squad, which have played 12 league matches and winning all, is expected to make the clubs current run even sharper.
