I sat in the middle of the pitch because fans poured urine on me – Bashir Hayford
Heart of Lions head coach Bashir Hayford has now offered an explanation as to why he took a seat at the middle of the pitch during their Ghana Premier League game against Bechem United.
The experienced trainer delayed the game with a sit down protest their 1-1 draw at the Nana Fosu Gyeabour Park on Saturday in a match week 28 clash.
Hayford has now revealed that he sat in the middle of the pitch because fans poured urine on him, hence his decision to protest after likening the game to war.
“They [fans] were pouring urine on me, they were spitting on me behind the bench,” Hayford told Kessben FM.
“They charged on the referee that our goal was offside, but it was because of the urine poured on me that’s why I went to the pitch with a chair.”
Heart of Lions took the lead after nine minutes through Emmanuel Ofori Sakyi before the home side equalized in first half stoppage time through Francis Acquah.
Heart of Lions remain in the relegation zone with 29 points from 28 games, three points away from safety.
