CakePHP Pagination order not working

I am using cakephp V2.0.2 I am having trouble with ``` $this->paginate = array( "fields" => array( "Player.join_country" ), "joins" => array( array( "table" => "banner_key_current_ext", "alias" => "BannerKeyCurrentExt", "type" => "inner", "conditions" => "BannerKeyCurrentExt.banner_key_id = BannerKeyCurrent.banner_key_id" ), array( "table" => "players", "alias" => "Player", "type" => "inner", "conditions" => "BannerKeyCurrentExt.identifier = Player.zban_player_id" . $country_condition ), array( "table" => "users", "alias" => "User", "type" => "inner", "conditions" => "BannerKeyCurrent.user_id = User.user_id" ), array( "table" => "tag_links", "alias" => "TagLinks", "type" => "inner", "conditions" => "TagLinks.id = BannerKeyCurrent.user_id AND TagLinks.tag_id = 710" ) ), "conditions" => array( "BannerKeyCurrent.date BETWEEN ? AND ?" => array( $this->request->query["period_from"], $this->request->query["period_to"] ), "BannerKeyCurrent.plan_id" => $brands_plan_map[$this->request->query["brand"]]["plans"], "BannerKeyCurrent.operation_id" => $operation_ids ), "group" => array( "Player.join_country" ), "order" => array( "Player.join_country" => "DESC" ), "limit" => 999999, "maxLimit" => 999999 ); ``` Everything works all fields, joins, group, limits no problem but the ordering simple wont work. Outputting the sql_dump element shows that it is never added to the query. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
