The solution came after a two-hour meeting. The games will be played at the Buxton Community Centre ground tonight.
President of the Alpha United Football Club, Odinga Lumumba, was upset at proper protocol not being followed over the change of venue for the semifinal games. It was his contention that limited notice was given.
He had threatened that his team will not play at Buxton, but would have rather showed up for the scheduled encounter yesterday at the Georgetown Football Club, Ground.
However, after a meeting between Kashif Muhammad and Alpha Official, Steve Ninvalle, an amicable agreement was reached and the Club committed to playing the fixture today.
While expressing regret at the way in which they had to go about making the change, Kashif and Shanghai noted that they had to have the best possible venue for this important segment of the competition, hence the switch.
They apologised to Alpha who readily agreed to continue in the tournament for the good of the game and smooth flow of the tourney.
The Kashif and Shanghai Organization expressed thanks to the Executive of the Alpha United Football Club for its foresight and commitment to football in Guyana and its ability to compromise.
