Yorke's quit threat

Former Manchester United star Dwight Yorke could have played his last game for Trinidad and Tobago.

The 34-year-old Sunderland striker is one of 13 players in dispute with the national federation over contractual obligations.

Yorke, scored in Saturday’s 5-0 victory over St Vincent/Grenadines, had earlier delivered a statement on behalf of the group.

He said: “We, the players of the national team that participated in the World Cup 2006, would like to announce our consideration to retire from international football immediately after our next two games.

“We all recognise the fact that retirement must come to us all, but certainly didn’t anticipate this decision, especially following so hot on the heels of what has been our proudest and most memorable achievements in the game this summer.”

Yorke headed back to England yesterday after agreeing with Black Cats manager Roy Keane that he would not play in Wednesday’s friendly against Panama ahead of the Coca-Cola Championship trip to Preston at the weekend.
