Vice-president of the Guyana Football Federation (GFF) Winston Callender yesterday said he was unaware of any issues affecting the training camp of the national football team known as the Golden Jaguars.

The Golden Jaguars are encamped in Trinidad in preparation for their upcoming 2010 World Cup qualifier against Suriname in just about two weeks time.

Callender said he too was hearing rumours that all was not well with the camp but said  he had had no official report on the matter from the management team in the Twin-Island Republic.
Stabroek Sport learnt yesterday that there were issues involving food, stipend for players, and playing gear.

“I have been getting the same information but nobody has informed me,” Callender said in an invited comment yesterday.

Callender, who is acting president of the GFF in the absence of Colin Klass, who left Guyana last week to attend the FIFA congress in Australia, said he tried getting Klass yesterday but apparently the GFF head had not arrived in Trinidad.
