Sir Alex won't mind us beating England.
By: Shaun Fuentes.[/size]
Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson won’t mind at all if this country can topple England in their second Group B match at the 2006 World Cup on June 15 in Nuremburg.
This was the indication coming from captain Dwight Yorke as he revealed to the UK Press in Chester on Thursday.
It was also a topic among the Soca Warriors as they got by their second day of training in Bad Radkersburg on Sunday with most of the players indicating that their clubs were behind T&T’s efforts at the World Cup.
Yorke though hinted that he had full backing from Ferguson and former Aston Villa boss Graham Taylor, who served as an adviser to the team during the early stages of the qualification bid.
"Sir Alex and his staff were tremendous when I trained with them and when I left he wished me all the best and sent me a little message about the England game. I won’t go on to say much about what he said. But let’s just say he will be more than happy if we got a result against them (England),” Yorke said.
"I bought him a couple of bottles of good wine to thank him and I know he will be toasting a good World Cup for us, especially when we p l ay England. I trained with United right up until the last game of the Premiership season and for that I really do thank Sir Alex.”
Yorke spoke of the similarities between Ferguson and T&T boss Leo Beenhakker.
“There are similarities to Beenhakker and Ferguson. They are both winners and very strong on discipline.Maybe five or 10 years ago our players wouldn't have welcomed that regime. Players loved representing their country but perhaps they didn't take it too seriously. Now the coach demands professionalism.
"We've got this reputation for being party animals - and I can't argue that all the lads love a good time. The difference is we now party at the right time.
"I'm not going to predict we're going to beat England. But I've been part of some great teams in games where you just can't see yourself losing - and the unexpected happens.
"Nine times out of 10 we wouldn't have a chance, but there is still that glimmer of hope.
''The important thing is we give a good account of ourselves and don't get absolutely hammered ... although at the back of every one of our player's minds will be that little dream of causing an upset,” Yorke added.
At Bad Radkersburg Yorke and his teammates went through two intense sessions completing their day in the pool with team sports physiotherapist Zeph Nicholas. The day’s activities also saw assistant coach Mario Been, a former Dutch and Feyenoord player, actively involved with the players during the training. He is the latest addition to the coaching staff which also includes Wim Rijsbergen, Anton Corneal ad goalkeeper coach Michael Maurice.
The team will train twice again on Monday before Tuesday’s training match against Austria Vienna behind closed doors from 5:30pm (11:30am T&T time) at the Thermen Arena Complex.

I just glad to know that eveything cool between he and Alex. The split really was nice, but it pays to not burn yuh bridges. Maybe if the relationship continues, it could open avenues for other T&T youthmen in the future.

Point well made. I is a man couldn't forgive Alex for the way he treated Dwight in the end, (as well as other players, like Barthez e.g.) but I have to consider that you make a very good point.
