We want all of our clubs on board no matter what their concerns," Lawrence told BBC Sport.The clubs are also keen for the dispute to be sorted out.Their spokesman, Andy Quamie, said they were ready to put their case to Fifa."We will take full advantage of the invitation as our intention is not to undo the LFA but to see football here develop in the right fashion," Quamie told the BBC."We hope Fifa ensures that it happens with Liberian football."Source: BBC
