The FA agree to defer Jamaica debt

November 5, 2008

The Jamaican Football Federation owes the FA £135,000 dating back to 2006 but the FA have agreed to wait until after the 2010 World Cup to take payment. The FA had feared that the issue could cause a row that would reflect badly on their bid for the 2018 World Cup.

The FA said in a statement: “The JFF acknowledge the outstanding debt of approximately £135,000 to The FA, arising from the friendly match played in England in June 2006.

“Having heard about all the circumstances, The FA agreed to defer consideration of the debt until after the 2010 World Cup.”

The FA also heard proposals from the JFF for a youth development facility on the Island and the idea of a friendly between the pair after the 2010 World Cup was also discussed.
