The Trinidad and Tobago Football Federation had their office furniture, trophies, and other items
seized on Wednesday after failing to make a scheduled payment to the members of the 2006 World Cup
team. Those players won a court case requiring the TTFF to honor an agreement where the players
were promised half of T&T's '06 World Cup revenue.

The Philadelphia Union announced that Keon Daniel, along with Danny Mwanga, has joined the team
at its preseason training camp in Florida today.
The 25-year-old has been missing from the Union since a September call up to the Trinidad and
Tobago national team. Daniel left the United States on August 28 or 29, then did not re-enter the
country until possibly today.
Keon Daniel is not at the Youth Sports Complex, in Wayne, PA, according to fans that are at the
Philadelphia Union's open team practice. Despite seeing a player of Daniel's build with a
dreadlocks style haircut, the midfielder is not at the camp today.
Fans tweeted that the 25-year-old was sighted at preseason training camp this morning, before
retracting their observations.
The other day, Corey alerted everyone to a claim over at socawarriors.net stating that former
Trinidad and Tobago youth international Jamal Gay would be a New England Revolution player by the
end of the month. At the time of posting, no Revolution officials were available for comment.
Sources from inside the organization have since made contact with TBM.

the still unknown situation of Keon Daniel's work visa.

the 4th most likely team to win, behind Seattle, LA and Real Salt Lake.
St. Clair's Coaching School star striker Keon Proctor scored another hat trick en route to the
club's third straight Tobago Football Association Cup title, but he has set his sights higher than

season.

Union as clinching just yet.
Keon Daniel's tale of unfortunate events continued last night, as the Philadelphia Union player
was substituted off in the 46th minute of Trinidad and Tobago's 4-0 win over Barbados.
The 25-year-old Daniel was unable to regain the form that he had found with the Union and
carried over to the Trinidadian national team, before failing to impress in his start in Trinidad's
2-1 loss to Bermuda on October 7.
CONCACAF nations play their fourth round games of the 2014 World Cup Qualifying season tonight,

Keon Daniel update: a report in the Trinidad and Tobago Guardian says, "Daniel's agent Andre
Fortune said [the] Union's immigration attorney was assisting in the player's visa problem (which
prevented him from playing for the club last weekend) and the [Trinidad and Tobago Football
Federation] may be asked for assistance.
According to a report out of Trinidad and Tobago, Philadelphia Union midfielder Keon Daniel has
not been able to re-enter the USA since playing for the country's national team against Bermuda and
Barbados.
Ten days after representing Trinidad and Tobago in World Cup qualifiers against Bermuda and
Barbados, United States-based Philadelphia Union midfielder Keon Daniel is still in Trinidad.
Philadelphia Union head coach Piotr Nowak attacked reports of midfielder Keon Daniel having
immigration problems yesterday at his press conference, saying that "they need to get the facts
straight."
Nowak went on to say, "the front office cannot redo a visa. I heard about this ‘source call to
the player' thing and it's completely false and I think it would be best if someone checked with
our staff and not to speculate on something that's not true.
Build up play for the goal starts at 0:52.
Earlier in the week, Keon Daniel started for Trinidad and Tobago in a World Cup Qualifier
against Barbados.
The 25-year-old midfielder went on to score the first goal of the game, which ended up being
good enough to be the game winner.
Philly Soccer Page and Philly.com are reporting that Philadelphia Union midfielder Keon Daniel
is unavailable for Saturday's game against the Portland Timbers due to visa issues.
Daniel's situation was originally reported on by Philly Soccer Page, who tweeted the information
earlier today (via @PhillySoccerPg).
Reported by Adam Cann. Photo by Paul Rudderow.
PSP's preview of Saturday's Philadelphia Union v Portland Timbers also contained the news that
Keon Daniel would be unavailable for that game.
The PSP has since learned that Daniel's unavailability stems from problems with the US
Immigration Service.
