THE WEST Indies Players’ Association (WIPA) has claimed that the potential stand-off between with the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) only occurred because the stipulations of the New York Agreement (NYA) were not maintained by regional governing body.

The WICB had agreed to pay US$450,000 as a settlement to players after mediation last year which ended with the NYA on October 10, 2009.

The players’ body had a special meeting with their members on October 29, 2009 in Guyana and the players had agreed that when the money was disbursed, WIPA would be paid a fee (reportedly US$150,000).
