We cannot prevent the television crew from coming to Tarkwa. But we will block them from entering the stadium.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The nonsense from Aduana is too much and we&#8217;ll stop them.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The club&#8217;s supporter chairman Ekow Assafua further posited: Star Times shouldn&#8217;t border to waste their fuel to come to Tarkwa for the live coverage or telecast of our match against Aduana,&#8221; he fumed on Takoradi-based Aseda FM<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Why do they want their away matches to be televised but doesn&#8217;t want their home matches to televised. If it were to be any other team apart from Aduana we would have allowed the live coverage, but for Aduana we will never allow it.<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\nEven if Moses Armah Parker comes to intervene, we will not allow&#8221;.<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\nOfficials of the 2016 CAF Confederation Cup campaigners have been tight-lipped on the mounting reports which has gained currency in Tarkwa.<\/p>\n<p>Aduana Stars have a notorious reputation of preventing broadcast holders from transmitting live matches in Dorma after they took a similar action against giants Asante Kotoko last month.<\/p>\n<p>However, it appears they have &#8216;met their match&#8217; in Medeama, who have vowed to prevent the television crew from entering the stadium.<\/p>\n<p>Aduana Stars are in a neck-to-neck race with West African Football Academy for the Premier League crown and appear desperate to adopt various strategies to nick the title.<\/p>\n<p>Medeama trail Aduana by just nine points with eight games to end the season, which has spark a certain wave of optimism that a win could put the Mauves in a pole position to challenge for the Premier League title.<\/p>\n<div class=\"related_articles\" style=\"width: 100%;\">\n<div style=\"clear: both; font-size: 90%; background-color: #eeeaea; padding: 5px; width: 60%; margin-top: 10px;\">\n<table width=\"100%\" border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\">\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:0; padding:0\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/96124592.jpg\" style=\"padding-right:2px;\" \/><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:0; padding:0;width:100%; vertical-align:middle; font-size:11px;\">Courtesy of <b>GHANAsoccernet.com<\/b> &#8211; Ghana&#8217;s leading football news website.
