Football's world governing body, FIFA, is being called on to help resolve a power struggle that has led to an impasse within the Grenada Football Association (GFA). The request has come from a newly appointed three-man committee claiming to be the body in charge of football in the country. The committee says it has secured a vote of no-confidence in the four-month-old executive of the Ashley Folkes-led GFA. But Folkes, a former national coach, has refused to step aside on the grounds that the special meeting to hear the vote was unconstitutional, a charge denied by Paul Roberts, a member of the three-man committee. "We were a properly constituted meeting and, as a result, we formed ourselves into a three-man committee to look after the affairs of the Grenada Football Association until FIFA comes in to deal with what we are describing as an impasse," Roberts told CMC Sports. Dangerous situation "What I hope will happen is that before any dangerous situation occurs, FIFA will come in because it is an impasse. We are saying that we are the ones, who are legally running football; he (Folkes) is saying he is. So clearly it is an impasse so that is where FIFA has to come in." Eighteen of the 33 clubs were represented to debate the vote at the special meeting, which Roberts said constituted a quorum, as stipulated by GFA statutes. Folkes, re-elected as president for a second four-year term in a closely fought election in April, has been accused of mismanagement, incompetence as well as breaching GFA statues 40 times. The power struggle within the GFA has been linked to the suspension of general secretary Victor Daniel over allegations of financial impropriety. Reprinted from jamaica-gleaner.com
