Lomell Johnson, GFA Secretary 

Secretary of the Georgetown Football Association Lomell Johnson has criticized the Guyana Football Federation (GFF) for their decision to commence its Elite League Cup today the same day of the entity’s final league match day.  In a sent to GFF General Secretary Ian Alves dated Octctober 11th, Johnson stated,

“It was brought to the attention of our association via social media that the federation has a tournament commencing on the same date in Georgetown. This decision has put us in a position where we will have to compete with your tournament to gain some much-needed gate receipts. It is the conclusion of our members that the federation’s action shows gross disrespect to our league, which is fully supported by the same federation.”
