Jean, I believe both Haiti and Jamaica have enough power in the region to oppose certain decisions in CFU. Neither one seems to care. Jamaica suffers as much as Haiti does with those early clashes. BTW, having TnT plays those teams in early rounds would only add to the drama and considerably raise the casualties. Notice that the Jamaicans on this board rarely complain about these early encounters because they're often played in Jamaica only, giving them home advantage.
The real problem is that Concacaf officials often based their decisions on the locations of the teams instead of their current strenghts. If that same criterion was applied in Europe, you would always have France, Spain, England, Portugal, Holland, and Germany knocking each other out in early rounds of their competitions, while Teams like Sweden, Iceland, Finland, and Norway will always reach the final rounds of those competitions.
For example, it would be much better to have the top 12 CFU+UNCAF teams form 3 groups of 4. The winners and the runners-up of each group directly qualify for the GC while the 3 third place finishers join 9 qualifiers (winner and runner-up from qualifying rounds) to form 3 new groups of 4 for the remaining 3 GC berths. Weak teams like Belize and Nicaragua would no longer have a better chance to qualify to the GC than stronger CFU teams like Jamaica, as it is the case now.
