Fred Moore endorses GPL going autonomous, believes it will take league to higher level

Managing Director of Accra Hearts of Oak, Fred Moore has endorsed the Ghana FA’s decision to finally make the Ghana Premier League autonomous.

The GFA made the announcement this week that they have commenced plans to make the Premier League independent of the football’s governing body.

The top-flight league is currently run by the Premier League Management Committee of the FA, who replaced the Premier League Board (PLB) last year.

Hearts MD, Fred Moore has told Kumasi FM that the move is a step in the right direction and is set to take the local league to the next level.

“I think that making the league autonomous is probably long overdue. Football has moved on and most of the leagues that are pre-eminent that we all watch are all playing on an autonomous basis from their football federations.”

“I think it is important that we follow good practice anywhere we can find them in the world. What it can do is to push the premiership to a different level. To make the premiership autonomous will possibly parachute it to a different level”, he said.
