As man I could give the names of many I remember, but not of those I've seen once or twice, or players my dad have told me about.
Yorke...will always be the benchmark of footballers out of the Caribbean (represented his native country)
Colvin Hutchinson...Probably the most skillful player (could have been a Latapy clone)
Wendell Moore...It was always said he was better than Yorke. He just never went the way of the professional athlete.
Bert 'stregge' Fitzwilliams...No left-footed player in Tobago was better.
John Granville...Personally I wish he was around me all the time. Goalkeeper to goalkeeper coach. What more could I wish I had? Unfortunately I never saw him play, but I guess 50,000+ Tobagonians couldn't be wrong in saying...he was that good.
Rolston* (sp) James...Powerful, strong, and skillful enough as a striker to be rated one of the best strikers in the PFL before he was killed (RIP Cibby)
Cyd Gray...It seems as though he's only beginning to show some of his potential. Thank God.
Keon 'Schilacchi' Daniel...The last time I saw him play was las Christmas at the annual Coaching School Foreign-Based vs Coaching School Local Match. I tell you..de boy smooth and he left foot wicked. Now can he push his talents past his laziness? Hopefully.
Kevin Nelson...Probably the most unlucky Tobagonian I know. He's been all over the world and never really got a break. He still pushes on though. Hopefully those Aussies fall in love with him and keep him there.
Henry 'Bucky' Ceasar...Maybe behind Yorke the best striker Tobago has ever produced. Over-powering with both left and right guns; I don't know of any keeper (Trinidad or Tobago) that willingly stood in front the goal while he prepared to shoot. Very Prolific scorer that should have been given a fair chance ($$$ and a Trinidad bias made things very difficult unfortunately).
Warren Butler...Individual skill was tremendous. Individual professional attitude was lacking. He could have been T&T's next Yorke. It never worked out that way.
We could throw into the mis 'Arab' Nelson, the quartet that went to the Youth World Cup in '91 (don't know the names but Yorke was the captain), Devon Leacock, Makan Hislop, Frankie Mohammed, Dwayne Jack, Marvin Raeburn, Roy Wright (I didn't know we had a baller playing pro in Switzerland in the 70's and 80's) but these are players I've never seen or know too little about to make any assessments.
Lata, blessings and enjoy the day.
Luv yuh T&T Always
