CONTROVERSY INTENSIFIES IN THE GFA SAGA  
GRENADA: - The controversy brewing within the Grenada Football Association (GFA) seems to have taken a new twist yesterday with a letter being sent to the newly elected President of the GFA by the law office of Dr. Francis Alexis, acting on behalf of General Secretary of the GFA, Mr. Victor Daniel. In the letter, Mr. Ashley ‘Ram’ Folks was accused of making false statements and allegations about Mr. Victor Daniel, which tend to disparage his character in the eyes of the general public and cause him undue embarrassment. The letter complains about certain words allegedly published by Mr. Folks in an email message which was sent to various individuals and clubs involved in Grenada’s football earlier on this month following a no-confidence motion against Mr. Folks as GFA President. The subject of the message revolved around “…the plunder of GFA financial resources.” It is purported that Mr. Folks made mention of US$2 Million that was disbursed to the GFA by FIFA (the world governing body for football) over the past 8 years under Mr. Daniel’s watch as General Secretary and intimated that the only thing to show for it is his [Daniel] affluent lifestyle. In his letter, Dr. Alexis demands that Mr. Folks makes a full public retraction and apology in terms acceptable to Mr. Daniel. Further to that, he should ensure that the same or similar allegations against Mr. Daniel are not repeated and he should propose substantial compensation to Mr. Daniel. The letter warns that if Mr. Folks doesn’t comply to the demands before August 07, 2008, then action will be taken against him in the High Court.

Ram-Folks it's time that you take your hands off GFA. You've demionstrated your cruelty both in the political and football arena. You've deprived many aspiring footballers of Grenada the privilege of reaching their potential by your deceitfulness. Hope your name will never be idenified with GFA!
