T&T Prepares: To Win or Lose?
« on: March 22, 2005, 07:17:56 AM »
It was was written in the Guardian this morning that T&T will play the A-League team Atlanta Silverbacks in preparation for the WCQ this weekend.  When one compares the friendlies that other nations play in preparation for competition, against what we do in preparation for the same competitions - one must ask are we preparing for success or failure?  As a Trini I cannot subscribe to the tenants of blind patriotism.  In our attempt to qualify for the Youth WC our preparations were lacking and the results reflected as much starting with a six, one loss to the USA.

Well said NC.It is a constant bother for me now. I almost expect every friendly to be  cancelled now since it has happened so regularly in the past. It's symptomatic of the way we do business and we certainly pay the price on the field come game day.
I'll continue to support but (as you say) I'll not be blind.
