According to him, the management of the club has invited artistes such as Gasmilla and Adane Best, who they believe are popular in the capital, to entertain supporters before the match kicks off.
Addressing the media at a press briefing ahead of the match in Accra, Mr Addo said, “We appeal to the fans to come in their numbers to rally support for the team.
“We have invited artistes such as Gasmilla and Adane Best to entertain the fans before the game kicks off.”
Also, the Managing Director of the club, Gerald Ankrah, has appealed to the fans to refrain from verbal attacks on the players when they commit mistakes during the match.
This, he said, could go a long way to demoralise them on the field of play.
“I want to appeal to the fans to refrain from attacking the players verbally when they commit errors because it sometimes demoralises them,” he said.
Meanwhile, Head Coach Herbert Addo has disclosed that four key players will miss the match against Djoliba through suspension and national commitments.
