The Surinamese Voetbal Bond (SVB) and the Guyana Football Federation (GFF) are expressing alarm at recent media reports stating that FIFA had ordered the GFF to pay its Suriname counterpart an outstanding sum of money owed following their World Cup qualifying engagement.
A release from the GFF sent by its General Secretary Noel Adonis to the media states: “The Surinamese Voetbal Bond (SVB) and the Guyana Football Federation (GFF) are both alarmed and disconcerted by the articles appearing in a segment of the media which allege that FIFA has directed the GFF to pay over the sum of US$8,000 to the SVB and its First vice President is in Guyana to demand this payment.
FIFA has made no such directive to the GFF. In fact, both National Associations are dealing with the matter to their mutual satisfaction.
The First Vice President of the SVB’s visit to Guyana at this time is of a personal and private nature.
It would be appreciated if reports of such sensitive matters are authenticated before they are brought into the public domain.”
