Former Premier League champions Hearts of Oak have increased gate fees for its home games in the Premier League.

According to a press release signed by the club’s Public Relations Officer, Muheeb Saeed, the decision has been occasioned by a sharp increase in the cost of running the club.

Tickets for the popular stand and centre line, which previously cost GH¢3 each will now cost GH¢4 each, whilst Lower VIP tickets will now cost GH¢7 each, representing a GH¢2 increase.

Upper VIP tickets, previously costing GH¢7 each, will now cost GH¢10 each, with VVIP tickets reviewed upwards from GH¢10 to GH¢15 each.

The revised rates will take effect from Sunday November 3 2013 at the Accra Sports Stadium, when Hearts of Oak takes on King Faisal on match day 10
