TTFF Advisory - Re Jlloyd Samuel's travel schedule for Costa Rica game

[YoursTruly]

The below is a statement from National Senior Team manager David Muhammad on the matter highlighted in a story written and published on the fans forum Socawarriors.net which is a website ran by fans living in the USA.

Mr Muhammad wished to make it clear that just like the other overseas-based players who were invited, were sent their notifications and travel schedule and received such, Mr Samuel was also a recipient but unfortunately turned up for his flight on the wrong day, contrary to the date printed on his scheduled.

Kind Regards

Statement from David Muhammad

The invitation letter that I just e-mailed to was sent to the 6 UK based players that were originally invited since September 26th (15 days prior to the first match). It clearly states that players were to fly in on Sunday, Oct. 4th. Bobby Zamora was the only player who said he had to change the date to Oct.5th as he had a match on Oct.4th. Jlloyd for some reason felt that he was to fly on Oct.5th and went to the airport also despite what the letter said. I was informed by Simpaul's Travel agency that Samuel's ticket was paid for in full and available on Oct.5th but was not located due to a the date change and original ticket number.
His travel itinerary was e-mailed on September 29th, but unlike the other players, he did not receive the information until I spoke to him and his agent directly. - David Muhammad.

Below is the letter of invitation sent all the overseas-based players on September 26,2009

Greetings,

I pray this brief invitation letter reaches you in the best of health and spirit.

Didn't Jlloyd say that he went in the evening, but the flight was in the Morning?  

TTFF manager takes Jlloyd for a joy ride.
By: Inshan "Flex" Mohammed.



Samuel meanwhile, who remains 100% committed to Trinidad and Tobago was originally called up by head coach Russell Latapy for both games and only got an email on Sunday afternoon with his flight details for Sunday morning from TTFF manager David Muhammad. Allow me to repeat this, Samuel's flight details were received Sunday afternoon for a Sunday (the same day) morning flight departure.

Big Up!

[E-man]

Didn't Jlloyd say that he went in the evening, but the flight was in the Morning?  

Big Up!

The flight was Sunday morning, he got a text Sunday evening - hours late - with the details according to his side of the story.

This says the flight was Sunday evening.

[palos]

Didn't Jlloyd say that he went in the evening, but the flight was in the Morning?  

Big Up!

My understanding was that he got a text sunday evening advising him that the flight was sunday morning.

Muhammed d prophet turnin in he grave

[Brownsugar]

But the letter above from Senor Muhummad says that the details he send to Jlloyd around September 26th says the flight was Sunday evening.

How then could he, Muhammad, have sent an email on Sunday evening saying the flight on Sunday morning, when the initial email HE Muhammad sent says Sunday evening.  So even he eh know the time Jlloyd was supposed to leave then??

But what the hell is this....whole week UDECOTT trying to take mih for a fool, now this clown....what really going on here??...  

[WestCoast]

all ah we gehin tie up

"Our UK based players are expected to fly in to Trinidad on the evening of Sunday, October 4th"
TTFF sent the Time that the flight would arrive in TnT not the time that the flight would leave London

HARD LUCK there JLS

Read it again sugar.

Our UK based players are expected to fly in to Trinidad on the evening of Sunday, October 4th

I read that as they supposed to arrive in T&T on Sunday evening.

Seeing that they comin from de UK.....it stands to reason that the flight would leave the UK in the morning.

[Big Magician]

[Brownsugar]

Alright Palos, but explain this part to me....

I was informed by Simpaul's Travel agency that Samuel's ticket was paid for in full and available on Oct.5th but was not located due to a the date change and original ticket number.

Due a date change??...when did the date change occur??  
Andre Samuel also just said that David Muhummad NEVER spoke to Jlloyd between Friday and Tuesday....so explain this....

His travel itinerary was e-mailed on September 29th, but unlike the other players, he did not receive the information until I spoke to him and his agent directly. - David Muhammad.

[Coop's]

What's funny to me is,didn't all the UK based players get the same letter,how some came and Jloyd alone did not get there,something just not adding up here.

[Dinner Mints]

So, he got the letter. He knows he has a flight some time on October 5. Now what?

[weary1969]

So when he eh respond d prophet could not re-sent d email. LOUDEST OF STEUPSSSSSSS

[Sam]

The below is a statement from National Senior Team manager David Muhammad on the matter highlighted in a story written and published on the fans forum Socawarriors.net which is a website ran by fans living in the USA.

Seems Shaun trying to say de fans wrote de letter (which we didn't) and they living in de US and in smart way they dont know what going on because they living thousands of miles away.

I say, he is trying to be sarcastic, seems like a riff between Flex and Shaun is broiling...

And David Muhammad is a dummy.

If they mess up, no big deal, just say so, everyone makes mistakes. A simple phone call is still the BEST way...

I am sure Jlloyd will call up the other five invited players and make arrangments to meet them in de airport if he had known in time.

[mysoccerson]

He never got his details till Sunday Evening. I guess he did not think that I would be listening to this thousands of miles away

Be real and admit that you messed up and lets move on.

No, according to the letter above the flight was on Sunday October 4th....but he didn't get the letter, now what?....Let's for argument's sake go along with what Muhummad is suggesting in that he sent out invitations to all the players but for some strange reason, Jlloyd was the only player who did not get his flight details.  

Is there not some system of follow up?

For example, when the email is sent, an acknowledgement is required.  If acknowledgement is not received, another email is sent and/or a phone call is placed.....
Yuh right Coop's something not adding up....

They official writer feels we eh know nothing because we live thousand of miles away.

This forum is a panel for all and its a powerful tool despite what Shaun thinks of us here.

I say, he is a red eye fella. Jealously is a bad thing.
