Trinitozbone, if a sporting organisation makes a promise to you or a team that you are a part of and then reneges on this promise aren't you within your right to pursue them to follow through? That said, the WC team did something no other T&T team did before or since so I think it harsh to say not to reward poor performance.
Nothing is wrong with players pursuing payment, however it should not be arbitrarily given out to any or every contribution. The problem is administrators making big promises for small accomplishments.
These guys don't have a case. On what grounds are they claiming?
