Golden Jags owed match fees once more by GFF

The subsequent contract, which had a final payment date of November 30th, was agreed to by the team but has so far been broken by the GFF

In what can only be described as a theme of the current administration, the Guyana Football Federation (GFF) for the umpteenth time is yet to remunerate the Golden Jaguars their match-day fees for a Nations League encounter against Antigua and Bartica, despite the team’s historic League A qualification.

This was confirmed by a source close to the team who spoke on the condition of anonymity. According to the source, “the foreign-based players have not been paid by the GFF. The team was supposed to be paid on or before November 30th, but that has passed. The GFF has paid the locals, and many people feel that is due to the fact that the election is impending. Initially, they had sent the team a contract for the team to be paid for December 15th, but the team refused to play. They then opted to send a new contract with a November 30th date, which was agreed upon by everyone. That is for the Antigua and Barbuda games, because the first game against the Bahamas was rescheduled due to the weather. In excess of two million dollars is owed to the foreign players. This situation has caused some bad vibes between the local and foreign players. This is absolutely ridiculous and embarrassing, especially for a team that has qualified for League A.”
