The Guyana Football Federation has responded to what it says was an erroneous article published in another section of the press yesterday. Following is the full text of the federation’s release.
“The Guyana Football Federation (GFF) is deeply concerned by what we feel was an erroneous article published in the Sports section of the December 9 edition of the Stabroek News.
The article captioned “Elite League football prizes still to be funded”, implies the GFF’s inability to honour our obligation with regards to rewarding the top four finishers of the just concluded STAG Elite League.
Of all that was stated in the article by an anonymous writer, the GFF is disturbed by what was mentioned in one paragraph “according to the sources, the federation has supposedly met the title sponsors to try and ascertain when the presentation for the prizes will occur”.
The article leads one to believe that it was Ansa McAl who was responsible for the clubs not receiving their prize money and we strongly refute such perception. Ansa McAl as title sponsor for the Elite League under their STAG Beer brand has so far honoured their contractual obligation and is also working closely with the GFF to ensure that Guyana and more so the participating teams, benefit from the staging of the League.”
