Ashanti Gold have been demoted from the Ghana Premier League after the Disciplinary Committee found the Miners guilty of match manipulation.

The FA have, therefore, decided to organise playoffs between three second-tier clubs to compete for the premiership slot.

Dwarfs, who were named one of the three teams, have withdrawn, claiming in a press release that they rightfully deserve the spot.

The Cape Coast-based club argued in a press statement issued on Tuesday, July 20, 2022, that the case that led to Ashgold's demotion occurred during the 2021/2022 GPL season when they were a premiership club.

As a result, if the Miners are demoted, Dwarfs who finished the season as the best-relegated side must be promoted automatically.

With the GFA refusing to grant them the promotion, the fans have embarked on a demonstration at the GFA premises.
