My rejoicing on hold for many reasons:
-As long as the present administration is in power in the TTFF then Jack is still calling the shots
-As long as the present administration is in power in government Jack still has the ability to be an obstructive, if not destructive force locally, be it in politics or in sport.
-A FIFA probe promised to be damaging to him on both fronts and likely would have effected his removal from government, although that was not guaranteed given how this PP gov't continues to carry on without shame.
- This is good news for us in the long term, but in the short term it hardly helps TnT football as nothing really has changed, certainly no change for the better. Whatever development funds were sent our way, very little actually trickled down to those doing the "development"... expect even less now, because FIFA ent sending none.
- From a regional and international standpoint this is devastating for our football. Anti-Jack sentiments run so deep that there very likely will be a strong backlash against us... particularly if a non-CFU CONCACAF President emerges. Blazer has already demonstrated that he has no respect for the CFU, and a handful of our own members are complicit in perpetrating this thought that the entire CFU is corrupt and untrustworthy. As a consequence, it is likely that things will revert to how they were before Warner when Caribbean football was paid short shrift by the Mexican and Central American dominated Confederation... except now you have the US in the mix. Expect plumb assignments and tournaments to be steered away from the region towards the US and Mexico.
