Caribbean history:
By: By David Barber.
Fabio Capello's England will play Trinidad & Tobago in a friendly in Port of Spain on Sunday evening. It will be the senior team's first ever fixture in the Caribbean. But other England sides have visited that attractive part of the world in the past.
England's U18s played two friendlies inside three days in Port of Spain in March 1991. They beat their Trinidad & Tobago counterparts 4-0 and then lost 3-1 to Mexico. The England teams included Andy Cole (Arsenal), Jamie Redknapp (Liverpool), Lee Clark (Newcastle United) and Scott Minto (Charlton Athletic).
Much earlier, in the summer of 1969, the England amateur team played six matches on a Caribbean tour. The results were 4-0 v Bahamas (Nassau), 0-0 and 3-0 v Trinidad & Tobago (Port of Spain and San Fernando), 8-0 and 8-0 v Guyana (both in Georgetown) and 2-0 v Netherlands Antilles (Willemstad).
England included Rod Haider in all six matches, the Hendon midfielder who was capped a record 65 times at amateur level. England's only game with Trinidad and Tobago at senior level was the group game in Nuremberg during the World Cup of 2006. Goals from Peter Crouch and Steven Gerrard sealed a 2-0 win on that occasion.

T&TFF reprieve Sunderland
Jones, Edwards excused
Lasana Liburd Â
Wednesday, March 26th 2008
Struggling England Premier League outfit Sunderland will have use of their Trinidad and Tobago stars this weekend after all as the Trinidad and Tobago Football Federation (T&TFF) decided against invoking a FIFA clause to suspend striker Kenwyne Jones and winger Carlos Edwards until next Tuesday.
Sunderland drew the ire of the local Federation on Monday as they refused to release the pair for international duty against Jamaica today on medical grounds and then declined the invitation to have their claims supported by an independent party.
The T&TFF subsequently declared their intention to use a FIFA ruling that would forbid the "Black Cats" from using Jones and Edwards for five days after today's outing in Kingston.
Faced with the imminent suspension of two key players for Saturday's match against West Ham, FIFA vice-president and T&TFF special adviser Jack Warner claimed that Sunderland manager Roy Keane and Trinidad and Tobago's 2006 World Cup captain Dwight Yorke, also a Sunderland player, both phoned him yesterday to plead the club's case.
Warner did not give any details on the discussion apart from revealing that it ended with an about-turn from the T&TFF.
"We are putting all that behind us," said Warner, at a press conference yesterday to officially announce the June 1 friendly between England and the T&T Soca Warriors.
"We won't invoke the FIFA regulation."
Yorke was involved in a bit of give and take. Warner revealed that Yorke, the country's most celebrated player, and Scotland-based player Russell Latapy, arguably T&T's most enigmatic past servant, are both invited to wear national colours on June 1.
As such, Yorke's call turned out to be convenient for Warner.
"(Yorke) was thrilled," said Warner.
Jones, Edwards and Sunderland are happy too to continue their business of avoiding relegation from England's top flight.
Prospects of a more harmonious relationship between the T&TFF and their players' employers would be of scant consolation to national coach Francisco Maturana today, though, as he and the Jamaican public would miss the presence of the Caribbean's most accomplished players on present form.

Ah doh know where de idea dat Latas especially (even Yorke cuz yuh does have to take everything Warner say with a pinch of salt) say he coming for dis England game.
What I heard last night on de news clips was dat he (Warner) talk to Yorke and he (Yorke) was thrilled. He den said, he is about to talk to Latas in a few hours....since dat time (yesterday bout 2 - 3 pm) mih eh hear nutten official from Latas....
So whey all de Latas (especially) and Yorke confirmed talk coming from?? ??? ???

f**kery on all sides.
We letting Sunderland get away with murder
and we calling back 2 legends to play just because they are legends. Let 2 younger players get a chance nah, steups

France 1-0 England: Ribery ruins Beckham's ton
Updated: March 26, 2008, 3:00 AM ET
http://soccernet.espn.go.com/report?id=238013&cc=5901
Franck Ribery ruined David Beckham's 100th appearance for England by scoring the winner from the penalty spot as France edged a tight international friendly in Paris on Wednesday.
Ribery, who is enjoying a stellar season with Bayern Munich, slotted home from 12 yards just after the half-hour mark as Les Bleus got back to winning ways after three matches without a victory.
The right-winger was, along with striker Nicolas Anelka, the most dangerous player on show and overshadowed Beckham, who was given a start by Fabio Capello and joined an exclusive band of players to reach triple figures in caps on the international stage.
The French were without a host of key players, such as Thierry Henry, Patrick Vieira and Karim Benzema, so coach Raymond Domenech will be satisfied with the way his team managed to subdue a full-strength England.
And in William Gallas and Lilian Thuram, Domenech had two towers of strength at the back.
He now has a month and a half to finalise his 23-man squad for this summer's European Championships and provided his main players stay fit, the French will be a danger in Austria and Switzerland.
They settled quicker after the teams observed a minute's silence before kick-off following the death of respected French presenter/commentator Thierry Gilardi on Tuesday.
The lively Anelka, now a fixture for Les Bleus up front, first headed wide a Ribery free-kick and then dribbled a shot straight at David James from 15 yards.
England kept possession well for the rest of the half and Steven Gerrard - playing just off lone striker Wayne Rooney - had some half-chances, heading over twice from decent positions and curling another shot way over.
Ribery's winner came against the run of play, even though France had been the more penetrating all half.
Francois Clerc's through-ball was latched onto by Anelka, who was sent tumbling spectacularly by David James.
The foul was reminiscent of the one James made on Henry in the last meeting of the countries, in Euro 2004.
On that occasion, Zinedine Zidane slotted home to win the game 2-1 for the French and, four years on, Ribery made no mistake either.
In celebration, the midfielder took off his shirt to reveal a tribute to Gilardi, and was promptly booked.
And Beckham was also shown a yellow card just before half-time, for pulling Ribery's shirt.
Unlike England, who made four alterations at half-time, France were unchanged for the second period.
And they twice almost extended their lead early on, Anelka twisting and turning before firing over left-footed and Florent Malouda driving a low 25-yard shot just wide.
Beckham, industrious as ever on the right of midfield, was hauled off by Capello in the 63rd minute and was given a standing ovation.
Ribery, his opposite number, continued to steal the show and dragged a shot wide with 15 minutes left.
Domenech gave Sidney Govou and Djibril Cisse some game time in the final 30 minutes and the latter powered an effort just wide as the game drifted to a predictable conclusion.
Why England insist on playing with one forward? Should Rooney be that lone forward?
-
Meh, ah hopin Yorkie and Latas get to play a little bit at least, I only get to see Trinidad play twice live (2000 maybe?) and I wouldn't
mind seein Latapy live.

English FA grants JFF extension on debt repayment.
By: KAYON RAYNOR, Observer.
The Jamaica Football Federation (JFF) has received the kind gesture of an extension from the English Football Association to settle a debt of £153,431.94 (approximately $22 million) arising from ticket sales for a friendly international between both countries at Old Trafford in 2006.
Simon Johnson - the English FA's Director of Corporate Affairs - yesterday said his Association has extended its hand of friendship to the JFF to try and find a solution.
"We expressed our continuing understanding for the work that Captain Burrell, Horace Reid and others are doing with the JFF in trying to move football forward in this country and we gave him our continuing assurance that we would continue to help and assist the JFF in coming up with a way to find a mutually agreeable and acceptable solution to the difficulties that have been created in the past and to come up with a solution that we hope will be for the benefit of football here in Jamaica," Johnson said at a hastily-arranged press conference at the Courtleigh Hotel in New Kingston yesterday.
Johnson declined to give much details of the agreement, except to indicate that the matter will be settled outside of court.
Johnson, along with Peter Hargitay, senior strategy advisor for England's 2018 FIFA World Cup bid, and Jane Bateman, head of international relations for the English FA, were special guests of the JFF for Wednesday's friendly international against Trinidad and Tobago at the National Stadium. The trio was also in Trinidad to announce a friendly international between England and the twin-isle republic later this year.
They used the opportunity to meet with the JFF and discuss the way forward to resolve the current financial crisis.
But at the end of the day, outside of showing some amount of lenience, neither Johnson nor the JFF could definitively say what was agreed on at yesterday's meeting.
"This is not legal; there is a relationship of friendship between ourselves and the Jamaica Football Federation (and) these things in the football family are always best discussed as family members and that's what we've done...," Johnson said.
It was revealed that the debt arose after the previous Crenston Boxhill-led JFF administration failed to hand over to the England FA the agreed portion of sales from the 9,118 tickets they were granted to sell to Jamaican fans for the June 3, 2006 match at Old Trafford, which saw England defeating the Reggae Boyz 6-0. The tickets were to be sold for £25 each, which would total £227,950.
Of that sum, according to JFF documents obtained by the Observer, 204 tickets were unsold, which would total £5,100, and the JFF had tabled a charge of £17,518.64 for "expense to sell" the tickets. This charge was later dropped, the Observer understands. There was also a match fee of £48,648.65 and airfare and accommodation fee of £20,769.41, resulting in the current debt of £153,431.94.
"We've enjoyed a very good and constructive discussion this morning and we from the Football Association... reiterated our appreciation for the leadership of Captain Burrell and his understanding that there were problems caused from the past and that he was willing to try and address them," Johnson added.
Meanwhile, Captain Burrell, who is serving his second stint as local football boss after his first between 1993-2003, blasted the previous administration for not honouring its commitment to pay for the tickets.
In the meantime, Burrell revealed plans to stage a series of matches in the United Kingdom.
"We're still going to need tremendous help from the English FA because we intend to play a series of friendly games in England and you can't kick a ball in England unless you have the permission of the FA...," Burrell stressed.
-
I've heard from two sources that the ticket prices are going to be $600 & $1000. Anyone heard else heard this??

Ferguson angry at Fletcher injury[/size]
http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/teams/m/man_utd/7318679.stm
Fletcher has been a reliable presence for Man Utd this season
Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has blamed "futile" friendlies for the absence of midfielder Darren Fletcher with a knee ligament injury.
Fletcher, 24, played 90 minutes for Scotland against Croatia in midweek, but will now be out for six weeks.
"We've had a bad blow with Darren and it emphasises the futility of playing these friendly games," said Ferguson.
"He should have played for 45 or 60 minutes at most, but he played the full game so he's out for six weeks."
Fletcher was left out of United's squad for the 3-0 win over Liverpool last weekend, but recovered sufficiently to play in George Burley's first game in charge of Scotland.
"He was recovering from a bad chest cold and we rested him last Sunday because of that," added Ferguson.
"It's a bad blow for us and it's crazy. Supporters will stop going to these kind of games.
"They have the whole of the end of May, too. (England) have fixtures against Trinidad and the USA and I think every manager knows that they're a waste of time."
Fletcher has made 21 appearances for United this season, and his absence will stretch the club's squad as the season moves into its critical final few weeks.

No like dey have anything betta 2 do like take part in Euro 08 for instance. Let Alex take a chill bill. Like he 4get dat England wants WC 2018 and playin day waste of time game is part of d course

World Cup was great, but we aren't the team we were 2 years ago and we have alot of work to do to get back where we were. We strugglin with Guadeloupe and Jamaica and now we figure we ready for England??....at the moment, we are no better than the Jamaican team dat got blowout 6-0 by England just before d WC.
Fortunately, England will send an experimental squad, like d one dey sent to d US last time. Otherwise we will collect real lix.

Guys,
All yuh realize taht this will be the third time we playing an English national team on TT soil.

Guys,
All yuh realize taht this will be the third time we playing an English national team on TT soil.
Actually pre-independence there were more matches. In 1955 for example they send an English FA team and we lost so bad they decided they needed to form a British West Indies Football Control Board. That was inagurated in 1956 in Jamaica, but I'm not sure how long it lasted - if it even lasted until independence in '62.
From four matches that played in 1955 here are the scores (don't have the exact dates of each match):
1-0
6-0
8-1
8-0
That was after we sent a team to England in 1953.
That's from an article in the "Trinidad Evening News"

E-man,
Thanks for the correction. I remember in 69 they sent an amateur(under the table pros) to TT. They tie 0-0 in the Oval and they beat TT 2-0 in Skinner park. In the Oval the squad was( if my memory serves me right) Jean Mouttet, Tyronne Delabastide(capt), Selwyn Murren?, George Romano, Errol Sebro, Ken Butcher, Ian Bain, Roger Mathews, Buggy Haynes, Lincoln Delandro. I can't remember the rest of the team. E-man contact Guardian or Express for the rest.

England Going To Euro 2008 In Place Of Spain
Spain have been sensationally expelled from this summer’s European Championships due to political reasons, and have been replaced by England.
Several weeks ago Spain were warned by FIFA and UEFA that they risked suspension from international competition due to political interference in their FA’s elections.
Football’s main governing bodies were up in arms over the Spanish government's request for the (Real Federación Española de Fútbol) RFEF to conduct its elections prior to the Beijing Olympics, as all non-competing Spanish sports organisations must do.
The RFEF, however, has previously operated with four-year terms of administration, with the next election correctly slated for November.
Spain refused to take the threat from FIFA and UEFA seriously, and they have now paid the ultimate price by being thrown out of Euro 2008.
“We warned the Spanish government very clearly, through their Sports Council (CSD), that if they continue to interfere in footballing affairs that they will have to recognise that their national team will be excluded from international tournaments,” explained FIFA President Sepp Blatter.
“They have deliberately and completely ignored our warnings and so we are left with no choice but to pull them out from Euro 2008.”
Spain’s place at Austria and Switzerland has been taken by England, who are the highest ranked nation who did not qualify for the tournament.
“Spain have been replaced by England, due to the fact that they are the highest ranked nation not in the Euros,” stated Blatter.
“The football community welcome Fabio Capello’s squad, and we hope they will grasp this second-chance with both hands.”
England will be in Group D, alongside European Champions Greece, Sweden, and Russia, who ironically pipped them to qualification originally.
The Three Lions’ first game of the tournament will in fact be against Russia at the Tivoli-Neu Stadion in Innsbruck on June 10.
England will be hoping for a repeat of Euro 92’, when Denmark were entered into the tournament late in the day after Yugoslavia had also been thrown out due to political reasons.
Denmark went on to win the tournament, beating Germany in the final in Gothenburg 2-0.

Star England footballers to meet the underprivileged.
By Joel Bailey (Newsday).
Wednesday, April 2 2008
MEMBERS OF the England football team, who are expected to play Trinidad and Tobago in a friendly football international on June 1, to commemorate the Trinidad and Tobago Football Federation (TTFF) 100th anniversary, will have the opportunity to work with a number of underprivileged local children at the Marvin Lee Stadium, Macoya.
Making this disclosure was TTFF special advisor Jack Austin Warner, during a media conference at the La Boucan Room, Trinidad Hilton, St Ann’s recently.
“Basically we shall be taking kids from Laventille and environs,” said Warner. “We shall carry them to the Marvin Lee Stadium.
“Obviously we must take some kids from Chaguanas,” Warner said, in his capacity as Member of Parliament for Chaguanas West.
“But Laventille particularly, we shall take them there and ‘bus’ them, have them there for the day, give them meals and so on. And let them work with the hope to get about 200 kids.
“And that is what we’re looking at,” added Warner, who is also the vice-president of FIFA and president of both CONCACAF and CFU.
He also plans on getting some children from the sister isle Tobago to partake in the proceedings.
“This will be decided by the Tobago FA,” Warner noted. “It’ll be a national effort, so to speak.
“It’s particularly for underprivileged kids,” he continued. “It’s not kids who have skills and so on, it’s kids who will have to look up and say ‘I was there with Beckham’.”
Last year, Warner raised the ire of members of the English Football Association when he was quoted as saying that England should not, by right, be named as the hosts of the 2018 World Cup.
“What I said then, and I say again, is that the English don’t have many friends in Europe,” he emphasised. “I wasn’t in disagreement. That wouldn’t be decided until 2011. And therefore it’s wrong and premature for me to make any kind of judgement at this time.”

Funny thing is, this dispute over Spain is very real.
I remember when Yugoslavia was kicked out and Denmark took their plac-and won the tournament. Football "experts" said it was due to the fact that the Danish players had a psycological advantage as they only had limited notice and therefore hadn't stressed themselves out mentally. Also, they had the attitude that they had nothing to lose. It was also considered that their opponents didn't have time to scout the Danish team for weaknesses. (Remember, there was not the global TV coverage that we now enjoy).
If Spain are removed, I have no idea if England would replace them. I'm sure there are more worthy qualifiers, although from a marketing point of view, England would be UEFAs first choice. It would also increase Europes dislike of English football!!

Also, they had the attitude that they had nothing to lose. It was also considered that their opponents didn't have time to scout the Danish team for weaknesses. (Remember, there was not the global TV coverage that we now enjoy).
If Spain are removed, I have no idea if England would replace them. I'm sure there are more worthy qualifiers, although from a marketing point of view, England would be UEFAs first choice. It would also increase Europes dislike of English football!!
it would be the group runnerup..which would be Northern Ireland.
but anyway i think the Spanish got the election thing sorted out..so they'll be there..and win too
that Danish team played like a team and they wasn't even together that long..ah remember John Jensen who had a good tournament..Arsenal buy him the next year..what ah waste lol

Can any one tell me when the anouncement would be made concerning ticket sales, BC i definitly want to come for the game, and i need to make travel arrangements ASAP. if the game is off or up in the air , i hope they could tell us soon since it might make travel arrangements easier and cheaper. positive.
-
Trini never been to a real game .....I want this to be my first,wont get any bigger than this man .We blackmailing England into coming .Was suppose to come for my niece wedding but ,I need to know if kakajack could pull this off ,cause I want a revenge win ,am also expecting Jack to call back Sancho and Birchall for this tilt ,with Edwards and Roberts at the side of Latas and Yorke.Feeding ball to Kenwyne and Scotland who came orn for Stern,unless he score .Then when Keon come een for latas ......ah yeah ah planning .
-
The reason for me asking, i'm trying to organize a trip for the England game ON JUNE 1ST, BC it's been a while since i've been to a warrior match, or any match for that matter, and this would be a good opportunity to break the ice, plus i have to be there in june on business.
my dilemma is , should i hold out for the england game , or should i make plans for the sure game which is the WCQ against bermuda on the 15th JUNE.
When traveling you have to plan ahead to get the best deals, and i need to start very soon or else i'll be paying an arm and a leg , plus it's the summer time and flights will be all booked on the return trip.
should i take a gamble on the england game , or should i go for the sure thing and wait for the 15th against bermuda ? WHAT WOULD YOU DO ?
PS: I don't want to book for the 1st and the game fall's through, that would mean i'll miss both games BC i'll already be commited to the dates i set and i'll have to honor it. positive.

'' WHAT WOULD YOU DO ?''
Fire de wuk.............and yuh like football ? ;D

'' WHAT WOULD YOU DO ?''

De England game so far on,but yuh never know wid de TTFF but for sure de Bermuda game is ah definate.I mighta take de chance on the England still.
-
boy jus cool this is a hard one..
i eh want to say come back fuh de england game and jack call it off..
but at de same time i feel it worth taking de chance because you not going to miss much with the bermuda game..
and also you have to factor in that is england we playing against.
it could be a great opportunity to see our soca warriors overcome our former colonial masters who raped and pillaged us back in de 1800s and took our land and our women and destroyed de social and moral fabric, gave us false ideologies about the concept of beauty and ingrained in us an inferiority complex that means we are all victims of mental slavery up to this very day..
jus kidding eh breds.. ;D
-
No brainer. Go to the England game. Yuh get tuh see T&T play, plus yuh get tuh see a quality macth and team. Might Be a once in a lifetime experience. Also last time tuh see the magician do he ting. No brainer.
-
I am trying to come too, but I am afraid that they call off the game.
-
de only way we go bounce up is if the June 1st game is definite.
and that I can get a ticket.
ah fraid to book flights and then game cancell as the saying will have to change,
"What is Simpaul luck is not WestCoast Luck" :devil:
-
i get real lucky with this game..I graduate end of May so i home from May 24th...my only concern is when tickets go on sale..cuz i hadda make sure someone will get one for me without being turned off by the madness that bound to ensue wen they go on sale

So I was watching the show Fox Football Fone-in last week, and the question of the night was
"will the USA squad given their win over Poland overcome an England team whose form has been in question lately?
Many seemed to think USA have a great chance, which I dont agree with, but football is a team game and upsets do happen.
The question however, started me thinking in another direction...
At each position, fwd, mid, def and gk is there any player on the USA team you would start over an english player?
For instance,
Would Dempsey play before Garrard, Lampard, Cole, Bentley, Barry etc?
Would Dempsey even be in the running?
The only position in my opinion that a US player could stand a chance is at GK.
Just goes to show that this is the ultimate team game!

Robinson can't get a game for Spurs, James is on the decline. I can't see why Capello would continue to stick with those two, to be honest.
There's a few good young English keepers coming through....Foster at ManU, Hart at ManCity. Problem is that they make a mistake, like Carson did, and the press is all over them. Capello needs to make a statement of intent and play them, not falling back on James, like he did with the France friendly. Imho.
-
James is in some great form, so he has to be an obvious choice.
Hart and Foster and Carson aint ready yet.
The man that gets the raw deal is West Ham's goal keeper. Robert Green.

As for the question....not even at GK would any American start over their English counterpart.
-
My odds are that at this point, England will beat the US 6 or 7 out of every 10 times they play, they will draw 2 or 3, and the US may win 1 (on U.S. soil).
Based on what I see of US ball, I still think they're at the stage where they need to be physically on par with their opponents or better to get a result, because they don't yet have the individual talent or imagination to overcome a physically & tactically superior team....
In that regard, I don't think they match up favorably against the English....England 2 US 0
An upset would be surprising but not shocking though....
England can find a better player in their pool in every position of the field....than the U.S.

Oh ok... I see what you're saying....but as far as I know or should I say, from what I remember learning sometime back (because I don't know for sure) Max Bretos is Cuban-American.
...but I wasn't referring to him when I talked about the Canadian anchors of the Fox Soccer Report....it's like 3 or 4 nerdy fellas in a newsroom, at least one with a really strong Canadian accent and occasionally an old fella with a scottish accent.......anyways- lemme doh hijack the thread anymore,
-
Yea the US can beat them. Is just England we talking about eh.
Last game I saw them play the US get outplayed but if they have good chemistry going around the time they play they capable of pulling off an "upset". They have done it before and people shouldn't be too surprised when they get a good result.
Hadda keep an eye on this Altidore youth...cud be problems for WCQ.

US can beat England. We WI include me something does hate on US. They have the fittest(textbook) team in Concacaf. In the last ten years, which big name team trash(3-0 and up) them? I don't like the US team but it feel good to know Concacaf can represent.

What is surprising about this US team though is that there are only a handful of 'big' names in de mix. I was looking fuh information about the Nigerian defender Onyewu yesterday, and he not even in de pool of current players...surprising since he was supposed to be their next Eddie Pope. Then again, neither was Adu's name in the mix....so who knows how accurate that list (on ussoccer.com) is. Altidore is nice...size, speed....touches. Pure death in the making...but he needs to go abroad soon if he's to continue developing.

I think Onyewu still in the mix. He played (and scored) in their last friendly against Poland. Not sure what is the deal with Fredy though- think of late he's been more involved with the U-23 quals for the olympics...
Yeah Altidore should make a Euro move soon- real potential there...
-
I think the US can pulll off an upset. I thnk England Over rated. Individual talent yes but that team don't mesh together well. Who knows how Capello will have them palying in a few months time. Right now they could get it though.

I agree that the USA could do it, but then again Capello has done some good stuff with other teams, so maybe england will be back in the "game"
-
Okay if you comparing player against player then of course England has the advantage...but based on recent team performances USA has the advantage...Ah fed up hear how good England is and dem continue to fail ..All dem big so called star players Gerrard, Lampard, Rooney were part oif the team that failed to qualify for EURO 2008...Another thing is any England coach that looses to the USA must expect the ENGLISH public to treat him with disgust cause England would hate losing to the US in a football match lol
-
England is the better team but a loss will not be a massive upset.
This is a summer game when England has nothing to play for other than match fees. Expect to see plenty first teamers "injured".
US has a good record in these games, recording wins against experimental England and Germany sides in the past. Only problem is that USA has a hard time getting good results in Europe in the past but even this seems to be canging.

Injured wont even come into it, Capello will probably just name an experimental squad - maybe less so than for the TnT game or if this game was taking place in the US, but still not the full side. He will have little pressure on him, because the public will have no interest in this game (especially since either Man U, Liverpool, Arsenal or Chelsea will have just won the Champions League ;D)
Men like Agbonlahor, Ashley Young and Curtis Davis who keep getting dropped from the final squad will finally get a sweat.
-
Player for player, England would be advantaged by far.
Football being the team game that it is though (like marcus initially said), it ain't farfetched to say that the current United States could beat an Eriksson or McClaren-run England. Even that last game against France they were unimpressive.
I doh think Capello has shown the height of his capabilities with England just yet though ... if that comes to fruition then USA would have a harder time. But for now it could go either way easily.
-
Be it resolve dat dem 2 sides are highly overated. Lets debate Otherwise no debate who really cares what happen in dat game.
-
GO ENGLAND!!!! :devil:
-
USA producing goalkeepers that is for sure. Dam! dem spoilt for selection
-
After McCLaren's dismal reign I think they need a lot of lifting, but anything less than a draw would be dissapointing for England against USA. Obviously, the keeper position is the weakest link, but against France the crossing was abismal. With some wingers who can actually cross the ball and Rooney playing a free role, like at Utd = improvement!
-
I genuinely think USA could beat England. USA always plays good compact text-book disciplined football. With the kind of form England has right now I think either USA will win or at least draw that game.
-
i agree with marcus only GK. dem english goalies does tired mess down themselves on the big stage
Robinson can't get a game for Spurs, James is on the decline. I can't see why Capello would continue to stick with those two, to be honest.

James ont he decline? lol...man is the best English keeper int he league
Green and Hart coming close behind
Foster aint playin but he good i find
as much as we aint like the US..hadda respect them for where tehy reach and the level they at...
they would definitely give England a good run
and Dempsey and Donavon is real headache when they ready and Beasley when he fit

right now my money go be on the usa.

England FA: Lay Down With Dogs....
by Bill Archer (bigsoccer.com)
The incomparable Andrew Jennings (I'm not worthy) has an important article in THE SUNDAY HERALD WHICH IS A MUST-READ (http://www.sundayherald.com/sport/shfootball/display.var.2174757.0.unseemly_appointment.php) for everyone interested in the course of world soccer in general and the World Cup in particular.
You may recall the post I did a couple weeks ago about professional fixer Peter Hargitay and his close connection with FIFA Supremo Sepp Blatter.
Jennings is now reporting that Hargitay has been hired by the English FA as a "PR Consultant" for their efforts to obtain the 2018 World Cup.
He points out that for the last five years, Hargitay has apparently been a principle of - if not THE principle of - a shadowy, paramilitary international band of what seems to amount to thugs and extortionists for hire in the form of
Zurich based "intelligence gathering" agency ABI, which offers clients "covert operation assignments", a "software expert with hacker-credentials" as well as "military and government-level surveillance" operations. On its website ABI boasts that one key operative is "a Cuban army colonel with a martial arts black belt." Come to a private meeting and ABI will disclose, "the full extent of services their implications and advantages".
Hargitay a) denies the connection despite pretty incontrovertible evidence to the contrary and b) APEARS TO OFFER TO KICK SHIT OUT OF JENNINGS (http://www.transparencyinsport.org/downloads/files/hargitay_man_enough_taunt.pdf)
(Whatever you do, don't miss that last link)
Most importantly, Jennings asks the rhetorical question: With all the top-notch "PR Firms" in the UK, why did England hire this particularly reprehensible creature to spearhead thier WC drive?
Although Jennings doesn't offer an answer, he knows the answer as well or better than anyone alive: because, as hargitay himself has said, to win a bid for the World Cup, "you don't need to convince the whole world" to give it to you;
"All you need" Hargitay rightly noted, "is 13 guys", that being the number required to make a simple majority of the vote on FIFA's Executive Committee. Guys like, as we know, Jack Warner, Chuck Blazer and other world soccer notables.
And stalking big time prey like that is Hargitay's stock in trade.
Jennings main question seems to be simply this: Of what value is the World Cup if you have to sell your soul to get it? With typical British reserve, he calls this an "Unseemly Appointment". Most of the rest of us would call it an outright disgrace.

from: Charles Sale's Column in the Daily Mail (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/columnists/columnists.html?in_article_id=558229&in_page_id=1951&in_author_id=345)
FA VIPs snub Trinidad
The FA's sponsors don't intend to slum it on Trinidad when England travel to the Caribbean island for their centenary match at the end of the season.
Instead, representatives and guests of Nationwide, McDonald's, National Express, Carlsberg, Umbro and Tesco will base themselves on the more holiday-friendly sister island of Tobago. At least the official England party will remain in Trinidad for the duration. When England last ended their season across the Atlantic, three years ago in New York, Sven Goran Eriksson allowed players to leave from there for holiday. There is no decision yet on whether the hardline Fabio Capello will be so accommodating.
-
Capello wants all or nothing.
...England boss expects full commitment.
By: Chris Burton.
Fabio Capello has warned his players that anything less than total commitment will not be tolerated. The England boss has issued the ultimatum ahead of an end-of-season double header which will see the national side face the United States at Wembley on 28th May, before heading to Trinidad and Tobago for a second friendly on 1st June.
The Italian coach intends to use the strongest squad available to him for the two games, and has made it clear that anyone offering lame excuses as to why they cannot be involved will be putting their international future in jeopardy.
Holiday
"By the time of the two games, some of the players will have been on holiday for a week already!" Capello said.
"Do I want to see commitment to England? If a player doesn't love to play for England, then perhaps he should stay at home.
"Players must love the England shirt and wearing the England shirt. That is all there is to it.
"If someone doesn't want to come and play for England, it means they don't love the England shirt enough. Obviously they must prefer to go on holiday."
Capello intends to continue his policy of rotating the captain's armband in the forthcoming fixtures, but has refused to confirm whether John Terry will be handed his opportunity at any stage.
Relaxed
The Chelsea defender was skipper under previous boss Steve McClaren, but has been consistently overlooked since Capello took the reins.
"Has Terry been treated fair by myself passing the captaincy around?" said the England boss.
"I have choices to make. I am running my own tests and I will make my choice based on my ideas.
"The important thing is that everyone plays for England at the top of their game and are as relaxed as they play for their own clubs.
"Will Terry get a chance in the rotation policy? We will see. There are two more games. We will decide every game. But I will have decided my captain by the time of the friendly with the Czech Republic in the new season (20th August)."
Promising
Capello also admitted that he is pleased with the steady progress made by the side during his first two games in charge, but revealed that he will be looking for further improvement over the summer.
"After the Switzerland game, I said it was a promising start," he said.
"After the France game, I said there had been a huge step forward even though a few people were surprised I said that.
"I expect another big step forward from the next two games."

Daily Star (http://www.dailystar.co.uk/football/view/35142/Fab-s-friendly-fire/)
England's superstars face the World Cup axe if they try to duck out of two summer friendlies against the USA and Trinidad.
Coach Fabio Capello has made it clear he won’t be accepting any lame excuses for no-shows for the USA friendly at Wembley on May 28 and the game in the West Indies four days later.
“If a player doesn’t love to play for England then perhaps he should stay at home,” he stated. Capello said he wanted players to come even if they had gone on holiday – as he plans towards the 2010 World Cup qualifying campaign which begins on September 6 with a trip to Andorra.
Now some of England’s top names – who might have thought they were in for a nice, long rest following their part in the shocking failure to qualify for the Euroepean Championships - might be rethinking their summer plans.
Italian Capello has already shown he is a hard task-master with a tough new regime which has included a ban on WAGs, mobiles phones, computer games and an order for the players to wear suits and eat together.
Turning to who he expected to be available for the friendlies, Capello said: "Some of them would have been on holiday for a week.
"But these are all things to overcome because we need to do our tests and try things.
"These games are very important, first of all because we will have a full week where we can have many training sessions and try many different things.
"Clearly the league will be over by then and I'll have a good group of players at my disposal to work with.
"Like Fabio they must love the England shirt and that is all there is to it.
"If someone doesn't want to come and play for England it means they obviously don't love the England shirt enough. Obviously they must prefer to go on holiday."
Capello's crackdown will be complicated by at least one, and possibly two, English teams appearing in the Champions League Final on May 21.
Liverpool or Chelsea could face Manchester United in Moscow, but despite that, it seems certain Capello - who has only had two matches in charge - will not be picking a shadow squad like Sven Goran-Eriksson did for the trip to the States in 2005.
Meanwhile, the England boss also came up with a bizarre excuse yesterday as to why some young players in Lesotho were better technically than their English counterparts.
He said: "The good weather here allows players to work on their technique a lot more of the time, whereas in England, because of the conditions, you can't just work on skills, you have to run much more and work on physical strength."

Good Good... bring dey full squad...i want to see a full squad if i paying 500... i dont want to see shithongs like Richardson and fringe players

Forumites,
We have all heard the promises of games being played...and I am a skeptic until I actually hear the team arrived in the country.
But I have been looking at the BBC website and I always get snippets of this England game.
Look at the latest two which gives me hope it might really materialise.
England's players face being axed from the World Cup qualifiers if they try to duck out of the summer friendlies against the United States and Trinidad, with boss Fabio Capello saying: "If a player doesn't love to play for England then perhaps he should stay at home." (Various)

Capello call for full commitment for June 1 clash with TnT
By: Shaun Fuentes (TTFF).
England head coach Fabio Capello says any player lacking the commitment required to represent England should "stay at home" ahead of the forthcoming friendlies.Capello issued his message ahead of the end-of-season double header with the United States at Wembley on May 28 and away to Trinidad and Tobago on June 1 in Port of Spain
And he made it clear any player opting out of the two friendly internationals for less than a genuine reason after lengthy domestic season will put their England future in jeopardy.
Capello said: "By the time of the two games, some of the players will have been on holiday for a week already!
"Do I want to see commitment to England? If a player doesn't love to play for England, then perhaps he should stay at home.
"Players must love the England shirt and wearing the England shirt. That is all there is to it.
"If someone doesn't want to come and play for England, it means they don't love the England shirt enough. Obviously they must prefer to go on holiday."
Capello will continue his policy of rotating his captains in the two friendly internationals before making a final decision on who will lead the side by the time England face the Czech Republic at Wembley in August.
But the picture still appears to be bleak for John Terry who has been given no guarantees by Capello that he will be part of that rotation plan.
Terry was skipper during the Steve McClaren era but Steven Gerrard wore the armband when he was absent through injury against Switzerland and then Rio Ferdinand against France last month.
Capello said: "Has Terry been treated fair by myself passing the captaincy around? I have choices to make. I am running my own tests and I will make my choice based on my ideas.
"The important thing is that everyone plays for England at the top of their game and are as relaxed as they play for their own clubs.
"Will Terry get a chance in the rotation policy? We will see. There are two more games. We will decide every game. But I will have decided my captain by the time of the friendly with the Czech Republic in the new season."
Capello insisted reports he was angry over allegations Terry had parked in a parking space for a disabled person was having no bearing on his decision.
He said: "It's his life. I think it is a mistake he made but it's not those things I get angry over."
Capello is happy that England are making steady progress in the right direction despite losing in the Stade De France.
He said: "After the Switzerland game, I said it was a promising start. After the France game, I said there had been a huge step forward even though a few people were surprised I said that.
"I expect another big step forward from the next two games."
Capello was speaking during a trip to Lesotho to help promote the Football Association's development of football in Africa at grass-roots level ahead of the 2010 World Cup finals.
But he believes the benefits of such an exercise in terms of vote gathering for England's bid to stage the 2018 finals should be of secondary importance.
He said: "This is a concrete project and I am happy to be part of this initiative. I don't think we should focus on the benefits we may get from such an exercise.
"If it brings some benefits in terms of hosting the World Cup one day, then all the better but this should not be the focus." (April 15,2008.Teamtalk)

CAPELLO WANTS SCHOLES IN ENGLAND SQUAD TO FACE T&T
England manager Fabio Capello is set to make an attempt to bring Manchester United midfielder Paul Scholes out of retirement and have him available for the June 1 International friendly against Trinidad and Tobago in Port of Spain.
Capello, speaking on Thursday, said he is hoping to lure Scholes to wear the England shirt again for the friendlies against United States and T&T.
And according to a report in The Telegraph, Capello could name a 30-man provisional squad in late May and will use the two friendlies as a chance to establish the spine of his squad before he prepares them for their World Cup qualifying campaign which gets under way in September.
The 33-year-old Scholes announced his decision to end his England days four years ago having become increasingly frustrated by Sven-Goran Erikkson's decision to play him wide left in midfield.
But now Capello believes Scholes could prove the key to bring out the best in his United team-mate Wayne Rooney who has failed to recreate his club form with England in recent matches.
Once selected, both Scholes and David Beckham could have a reunion with Dwight Yorke who has been invited to appear for T&T in the June 1 affair. All three players were part of the Manchester United squad during the 1999 treble success.
Meantime Southampton striker Stern John, currently among the topcorers in the English Championship Division welcomes the likes of Scholes being on the field with Yorke and company on June 1.
“I think when you look at the bigger picture… we all know that England is a well followed team and they have maybe the biggest League in the world with a lot of good players. So having these guys playing in Trinidad is going to be a massive affair,” John told TTFF Media. “It’s going to be great for everyone involved and it’s one of those games where as a player, you definitely want to be involved. Let’s hope for the best in that everything goes well for the occasion,” John added. “Dwight’s been talking about the game and like it was in Germany, I think he knows too that it could be another special time for our football and as the day gets closer I think we will realize how big this can be.”
With his current form, despite the fact that Southampton have had a fight on their hands to hold off relegation threats, John is feeling positive about the England game.
“We have the World Cup qualifiers to look ahead to but this England game is huge and I think once we get the boys together especially coming off our season plus the guys are into their season in Trinidad, then we definitely can be up for the game and ensure that the people see good football,” John ended.
T&T head coach Francisco Maturana will resume training on Monday with a group of home-based players for a warm up against Grenada on Sunday April 27 at the Marvin Lee Stadium, Macoya.

Alrite fellas, I know is a little ways off but talk already flying on the price for the game vs England. I hearing rumours we looking at around $500 TT for d game (doh know if that is stands alone) but Jack thinking in terms of US prices equivalent.
I know real ppl who didn't want to go to the Grenada game because they didn't want to give jack money..but the drawing card of England (and Beckham and possibly Yorke and Latas) will make ppl find d money to feed the vampire hunger.
My proposal is to take a leaf out of the book of the canadian supporters awhile back. If we have to go(cause we are soca warriors and we hadda support we team) we all wear black in protest of Jack, the blacklist, the TTFF and their treatment of the players, throwing away of Sancho and Birchall without getting a chance etc.
So I starting early to get some feedback of the members here. The English always have plenty media so we will get some attention so at least the foreign press won;t believe that Jack doing what he doing for his country, and know that we getting rape and pillage too.
Let me know who in...
P.S Even if u not protesting, u could still wear black as it is one of our national colours ;D
-
Just tell me when and where....I go wear flourescent black ;D
-
I like this idea but fear that it may fall by the wayside.
Any plans to advertise and formalize the protest to get big numbers?
Man not wearing black if they don't have anything fashionable. Men done waiting to rock they red TnT/United/Arsenal/Liverpool and AC Milan jersey for the game.
-
Well we will go through the Warrior Nation as well once we have the support here on this board, coz this is where the die hards who have the nation at heart are.
Once we have buy in, we will spread it to our friends, co-workers etc. and get the word out there. But the majority of the support hadda come from here for it to gain any sort of buy-in
-
It eh have no way I payin 500 US 4 dat game. If dat is d price I glad 4 all who payin it but not my money I sorry so let me know where d black is 2 b worn.
-
Well to be honest, I been wondering how to tell de TTFF ah eh know what de hell we celebrating AND take in de game at de same time....hhhhhmmmm :thinking:
-
Spidey,
Best Believe 3/4 of that stadium go be in a ENGLAND jersey....and is Trinis wearing it too.
They go have some who go wear the RED one and say they supporting both teams.
I ent fighting yuh idea, but I sure it will have as few as 30 forumites who see this thread in that game.
I kinda worried bout this ticket thing...but I will go down on the day and pay a scalper when push come to shove.
I hadda see my team battle the former colonial masters and come out victorious.
-
I trying to understand what's going on here,what kind of protest is this,the only thing that will be effective is not to go to the game at all which you as well as i know Trini's not doing.What does black means?why where black?
We don't want to put money in Jack pocket but we going to pay what ever price he ask for to go Football,players who protested and did not want to play for financial reasons got Blacklisted by Jack will be playing again,i don't see how wearing black will help unless all of T&T wears black,as i always said this blacklisted thing will never end,the careers of a lot of the players will end before it does,it's time we let go and move on which is what the TTFF doing why all these young/new players are being tried/used.
I don't think the price for the game will be any $500.00 US it more sound like it will be TT,if we want quality games against quality teams,work done on the stadium etc it going to cost,we will have to pay quality prices,this price is in line with international games played anywhere in the world,we complain about prices to attend a game in T&T can any one tell me how much it cost to see any game/sport in the US?
-

Spideybuff...great idea dred :beermug:
For all the naysayers who wondering what good it would amount to...if enough people cooperate, and particularly if they all sit together then it's sure to garner attention. Somebody in the press, local or foreign sure to ask a question. Far better to take a stance with the possibilty that no one will notice...than to take no stance and guarantee that no one will notice.

ah coming bareback

bakes, you need to get your priorities straight brudder.
1st and most important - men waiting to rock dey arsenal and england juzzy
2nd dey have to advertise that only the cool people wearin black so we could show off on the people not wearin black.
3rd nobody goin and laugh at me
4th...ah fuget...but dem ting above is the main important tings...somebody say something about a meaning or a cause...yeah someting so. ;)
-
steups i say trinidad link ah fresh all black kit from adidas
in truth how come we doh have a black kit
-
22 Pounds? And I sure Jack going to want to make a profit on we head still...
If allyuh want to continue supporting Jack and hiding behind the smokescreen that is the players on the field you supporting, be my guest...but just doh join too many threads bussing up allyuh mouth about how Jack do this to we and do that to we later on, please.
I know it have MEN among us who willing to take a stance against the abuse, no matter how small it is and whether or not it make a difference.
"Evil prospers when the good do nothing"
-
steups i say trinidad link ah fresh all black kit from adidas

Because it doesn't get cold enough for us to wear black.

You took the word right out of my mouth. mind you i would pay 500TT to see the game and not 500 USD so that we're clear on that , and that's BC i know that trini's are not a stand up ppl, and i not in no protest thing by my self, my name is not sammy nuwelling or whatever his name is.
that being said, if fellas feel they could dethrone ah man with no concious & shame then be my guess!! jack warner is monarch in ah banana republic, and he cannot be remove with simple protest, ah guess we all know that by now. so if you want to protest , the best form of protest is not to further line his silk pockets.
i on the other hand know that i can't beat him so i intend to join him as the saying goes. jack will be king until he feel like giving up the reins. only time and karma will dethrone the great JACK WARNER, so hold strain until the next episode.
-
why somebody doh hand out Black Arm bands.....with some sort of wording like
"We Support the JackListed Players"

Coop's, I have no problem paying $500 TT, which is roughly $30US for a game as I have paid more to see games in other countries, if the money is going to the purposes that you list there. However, if you (or anyone on this board for that matter) still believe that is what the money is for then you must be working for the TTFF...
-
Men losing the plot........is not about dethroning JW is about brining awareness to what is happening. It's like the fight against AIDS, the more people who know about the devastating effect of such a horrible disease the better. This dies not mean a cure will be found, but people will be more aware of the happening.
Spidey...I wish I could have been there I would support such. Is a good idea. As Bakes say somebody must ask a question.
Men on here does only talk....look is still one page, if was about Man United and Chelsea it would be 5 pages by now. Excuses, excuses, excuses.
-
I like this idea. I definitely would be part of it...Provided I manage to get a ticket!

Pallo if was 30 US movie town wuda be full. lol 30 Us is only 180-200 TT. just a lil correction.
but on a serious note. I n think ah paying no 500. d most ah payin is a 300 and that better d somewhere close to v.IP. lol
all ah need to do now is organize meh New T&T home kit and figure out weh ah stayin when ah come down trini d saturday night.
-
I supporting it. Lewwe organise dem jerseys.
-
I hearing rumours we looking at around $500 TT for d game (doh know if that is stands alone) but Jack thinking in terms of US prices equivalent.
Where d man say is US$500? Look he say TT and that Jack thinking in terms of US price equivalents. If it is ₤22 then we can look at TT$300 and then we should consider if that is covered stand prices. It was $150 for the Guadeloupe match in the Oval so imagine what it would be like to see a World Cup nation with known stars (whether or not all the big names play is another matter).
I am all for the protest, but agree that Trinbagonians like to bitch and moan while accepting what they complaining about. It is hard for me to say stay away from the game when we aren't accustomed to quality matches like that here. Who knows when next a team of England's quality agrees to come here for a game? That's why I like the wear black idea. As someone who works outdoors I know that the sun is just as hot in white or red as it is in black. That's just a convenient excuse.
If the idea picks up popularity and support I'm all for it and I'll be ensuring that my friends who are planning to attend get onboard.

De whole ting is, i dont see why we have to "hope" that the press recognize them in dey black.
it have enough movers and shakers around here to put mechanisms in place so that it will be arranged for the protest to get coverage and exposure.
If i was home i would 100% support this and I like the idea that someone mentioned about the printed black armbands or jerseys with some kind of statement.
here's an idea:
How about everybody wear and distribute to as many patrons as possible some black FPATT jerseys.
That could be a statement in itself and it could raise awareness for FPATT.
Also to appease de fashion conscious I find a white FPATT logo on the front of a black jersey go look boss.. Almost like a Kappa flex.

People funny oui.
I like the idea of the black FPATT jerseys. If we organise it properly, it could be a fundraiser for dem, it would help to give them publicity and it could appeal to the people who have a problem opposing the TTFF outright with a confrontational slogan or something.
After all, IF SW.NET end up getting tickets through the TTFF, it might be kinda hypocritical to organise a massive cry down of the organisation that 'feeding' us, so that might be a better tactic.
For those who more militant, I have a nice idea for a skull and crossbones motif with a football in place of the skull...That could look dread on a black jersey.
A black armband with the slogan "We support all Soca Warriors - Red, White and Blacklist" or something of the sort might be easy to organise and distribute freely in the stadium, because we know Trinis in paying for nothing just so.
It all depend on what message you want to pass, and how many people want to get involved. But the organisation needs to be tip top from the start.

if we want quality games against quality teams,work done on the stadium etc it going to cost,we will have to pay quality prices,this price is in line with international games played anywhere in the world,we complain about prices to attend a game in T&T can any one tell me how much it cost to see any game/sport in the US?
Coop's, I have no problem paying $500 TT, which is roughly $30US for a game as I have paid more to see games in other countries, if the money is going to the purposes that you list there. However, if you (or anyone on this board for that matter) still believe that is what the money is for then you must be working for the TTFF...
Breds i don't mean to be sarcastic but Football money all over the world lining peoples pocket for years and still is,check Football in any country the main problem is how Football money is being spent,we don't hear half the stories,why you think FIFA is so secretive.

How much of a cut Jack giving you, breds?

$500 TT is more than u will pay for the best seats of a football game in the US - even WCQs. The best seats for dem game is be about $75 US...and then since dem ting doh sell out, you could get tix for less from scalpers.
jack is a tief but then if people go pay, he go keep charging.

I don't think you will want to know that,that's between me and Jack kind ah personal.The thing is every time we have Football i keep hearing JW thiefing money,isn't it time the Police or somebody pick up with him?since i around Football i hearing that even the guy before JW used to thief,people still paying they hard earn money and going to Football and they know that,what kind of statement we making by wearing a black shirt to give JW the same money we would give him if we wear any other colour shirt.I repeat "we have to stop going to Football in T&T".

Like I said in another post.....go to the stadium and stand outside the stadium. Let the player know they have the support, but none for the ttff. I does see the shite Lampard, and Gerrad, and Rooney playing every weekend. So what if if we don't see them live? Men like pips too much. I must be able to say I was there... :bs: Stand outside and support the players, let the TTFF know we fed up.

I support this whole heartedly,Sammy Llewelyn did this for a WC game last time,he alone, instead of people join him they laugh at him and went and watch their game,i don't want you to get me wrong but all the people who talking about black shirt will not be in T&T for that game.
What i find funny though is how England already know the price of their ticket,have it on sale etc when are we going to know the price of tickets and when they going on sale and is we putting on the game,how England get all their information it have to come from our Football Federation.
-
A bit of info here,i'm now reading the price for the US supporters section at Wembley Stadium for the England v USA game is $115.00 each,there is a limit of 8 tickets per order and it have a shipping charge of $15.00.How we don't know anything about tickets.

With all due respect Elan it real easy to tell others to boycott when you have no intention of going to the game yourself.
We went through that last year with the Gold Cup where plenty people based in TnT and elsewhere was talking about boycotting when they had no real expectation of traveling to see the games anyway.
All the while the WN trying to get some credibility as a supporters group. At the end of the day people who was talking about boycotting find reasons to attend the warm-up games in Trini and watch every game on TV like everybody else. Not surprisingly nobody in TnT talking about boycotting this rounds even though this would probably hurt jack pocket more if it was to come through.
Now you, based in the US, talking about how people should boycott. Very easy to say when yuh up in the cold. Don’t be surprised if people don’t take yuh on.
-
Look out for news conference tomorrow at 2:00pm when ticket details will be released.
Did the press conference happen?

Eman I will have 2 check and see if it happened.

Dread, I know where you coming from but no matter what team Jack + co put out there stadium go sell out. This ent El Salvador or Guatemala we playing. De few local based who actuallyon dis forum go never get close enough to tell the players nothing. And seeing how the Hasely will be full, the only way you can have any kind of impact is if you get non forumites involved. And you not going to get the waggonist to boycott the only game they likely to attend for the year.
There is a french proverb...the absent are always wrong. In this case, it right on spot.

Just as I said JDB, it's about what the next man doing. Excuses, excuses, excuses.....I in the states so I can say anything. If that's how you all want it all well and good. When ever JW do anythingis all kind of buss upmouth talk, look at us now.....bloody.
I don't care who we playing something has to be done. Do we not have any will power?
Kind off sheep mentally behavior.

Well what I was getting at is that yuh don't want to pass judgement on the fans who choose not to boycott or go outside the stadium and stand up. Yuh certainly don't want to belittle their attendace as "being on pips" because they could justifiably ask "what you doing" to show your defience or support the players.
Yuh jumping on a plane to stand up next to them, writing letters to the papers, the playrs the TTFF.
Again, easy to say that you have willpower and to pass judgement on others for having a sheep mentality when you don't have to do anything to exhibit it yourself.
If the locals decide to boycott or not go to the game that really is up to them. The foreign-based really not in a position to criticize if they don't.

D load on dat site who takin bets 2 see how long it take b4 it crash. At 12:01 on monday I goin and book meh ticket

Make sure you print out every page of the registration process with a time stamp. Otherwise they won't find you once you go to collect your ticket. :devil:

If I was in TnT and could afford to go to the game I probably would go...I think a boycott is taking it too far, fans should not be criticized for attending the game. I also don't know what sort of message we'll be sending 'big teams' (and by the standards of our opposition, England is as big as we've had in quite some time) if they come to Trinidad to play and then the match isn't well supported...indeed we'd be shooting ourselves in the foot as fans.
This is why I like the idea of attending and showing the silent protest instead.

This is why I like the idea of attending and showing the silent protest instead.
That's the exact reason a boycott would be effective, the bigger the team, the bigger the occasion, the more impact it will have on the TTFF and the media (world and local) to raise awareness that the fans just are not happy. I've been hoping for a long time that the forumites/WN would try to make a stand for the good of T&T football and footballers but seeing some of the responses here, where people are generally more educated with regards to what the TTFF and Mr. Warner does, I can't see where the support will come from.
If you guys are not willing to sacrifice seeing the England team play or even try to make a real effort at bringing attention to the issues that concern the fans then every time there is another blacklist, another TV rights issue or another "ticket or leave it" then all of us needs to just STFU and bend over.
To all the guys who said that they would not join in any kind of action because trini people does only talk and never do nothing, well then i guess that by just making that statement you just made it true. Why not try to make an effort at changing the mentality rather than encouraging it.
I for one will not be attending the game unless there is some sort of effort at expressing our displeasure about what the TTFF stands for, so if we are wearing black (even in de damn hot sun) i'll be there and make sure everyone I know is sweating in de black also. The goal should be to educate people about the problem and even if participation is small this time, at least some more people may come to understand what the protest is about

I just saw the press conference on CNC3

Distribution of tickets Ticketing.
We have put in place one of the easiest and most efficient means possible of acquiring tickets for the match. It is a system that is used universally with great success and will alleviate the past challenges we have faced.
And it could not have come at a better time. Given the heightened interest in this historic match, we anticipate a huge response to the event. The official launch of the new ticketing arrangement will be made available to the public on May 5th 2008. This was the date carded for the sale of tickets and it is the date which will be used for introduction of the new system for making tickets available to the public.
The ticketing system is as easy as 1, 2, 3.
1. A fan desirous of purchasing a ticket will be required to go on-line to the official T.T.F.F. website www.ttffonline.com or by calling a prescribed number 800-FANS.
2. The fan will be given a confirmation code which will direct him or her to the next steps for collection of the ticket.
3. The fan arrives at the assigned Ticket Redemption point to pay and receive his or her ticket or tickets based upon a confirmation code and identification.
Tickets are priced as follows:-
$1,200.00 TTD (Covered) Special Reserve. Includes parking in the Hasely Crawford Stadium, Reserved Seating, Memorabilia.
$600.00 TTD (Covered Stands.)
$300.00 TTD (Uncovered Stands.)
Four thousand six hundred tickets have been requested by the English Football Association for traveling fans. And this request is currently being considered by the T.T.F.F. Warner did add though that those numbers may be cut to between 700-1000 to allow more locals the chance to obtain tickets.
Timeline of ticketing system:

* May 19-20, 2008 - Uncollected tickets from May 18, 2008 at the Hasely Crawford Stadium by successful ticket applicants will be collated for re-sale.
Special adviser rationalises England friendly prices.
By: Ian Prescott (Express).
Warner: People will pay
Jack Warner, the special adviser to the Trinidad and Tobago Football Federation (T&TFF), reckons that people will pay the relatively steep prices to see what has been branded a once in a lifetime opportunity to see the England national football team play Trinidad and Tobago from 5.30 p.m. on June 1 at the Hasely Crawford Stadium.
The cheapest ticket for the match is valued at $300 for uncovered stand patrons, while covered stand patrons will pay $600, and an additional one thousand special reserved tickets will be sold at the maximum $1,200 price.
A total of 23,190 local tickets and an additional 750 for English fans are available for the match. One thousand local tickets are special reserved; 4,150 are for covered stand fans and 18,040 will goes to those in the uncovered section of the stadium.
Local fans can access tickets first on the TTFF website (www.ttffonline.com) or by calling 800-fans. Warner said that the price structure was formulated after careful study.
"We have made a careful study of two things," Warner said. "First of all, the price that people pay for other events which have less importance...and the ease with which they pay for these events. And the price for football in the Caribbean, particularly in Jamaica."
The FIFA vice-president claimed that in Jamaica, the cost of entrance to a match of this standard is twice what the people of T&T are being asked to pay.
Warner added that the England match was a special occasion for the Federation because very few organisations can boast of being in existence for 100 years.
"We looked at the reason, the occasion...a centennial match against England and the budget of TT15 millions dollars. And we felt that anybody who has the means to help to make this a reality should do so. And that was how the prices were arrived at," Warner said.
Meanwhile, Warner revealed that the English Football Association have requested just over 4,000 tickets for travelling fans, but instead the English have been given just 750 uncovered stand tickets.
Tickets for English fans will be collected on May 1 and shipped to the English FA. Warner also revealed that the English fans have gotten a small discount.
"I think it is $50 less," Warner revealed. "Because they pay airfare to come here and they pay for their hotel. So, we gave them an incentive to come here."
In addition to travelling fans, Warner revealed that approximately 200 British journalists will descend on the country for the match. Dave Lamy, liaison officer for the foreign media said few events have ever seen such an invasion of journalists.
"Trinidad and Tobago is a World Cup national now," Lamy said. "And a lot of people are interested in this match," which he said will be broadcast live to England and throughout Europe.
The British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) have acquired the rights for the match and will be taking charge of the production. They have already made plans to have between 15 -20 cameras covering the event.
Lamy said the game will be covered from all angles, making it an unprecedented feat in T&T.
As a result of the media invasion Warner said , the T&TFF will be hosting the mother of all media functions to give the English a taste of local culture.
Warner also explained the reason why the Soca Warriors were conceding their traditional red strip to the English.
"One of the ground rules was to have a playing facility that was first class," Warner said.
"Another was that they would play in red and we would play in an alternative colour, so, we chose white," he said.
$15 million for Soca Warriors vs England.
By: Nicolas Clarke (Guardian).
The T&T Football Federation will spend a total of T&T $15 million on the international friendly between T&T and England which takes place at the Hasely Crawford Stadium on June 1. This was announced at a press conference for the match, entitled A Score to Settle, at the Hyatt Hotel on Wrightson Road yesterday. In attendance were Special Advisor to the T&TFF, Jack Warner, President of the TTFF, Oliver Camps and Vice-president of the T&TFF Lennox Watson.
Warner insisted that the sum was a fitting one for a centennial celebration and said that the T&TFF had no regrets about the cost. The monies will cover all expenses associated for the event.
It was also disclosed that tickets would go on sale online for $300 (Uncovered Stands), $600 (Covered Stands) and $1200 (Special Reserved) beginning on May 5 (see box). There are 18,040 uncovered stands, 4,150 covered stands and 1000 special reserve seat allotments. 750 tickets for the uncovered stands have been reserved for English “away” fans.
Surprisingly, it was announced that T&T would take the field in white uniforms since negotiations had specified that England would play in red. As a result, fans are being asked to don white apparel.
Warner encouraged Corporate T&T to get on board in supporting the event, advising that there would be three sponsorship packages available (Platinum, Gold and Silver).
He also promised that the pre-match cultural show, to be produced by Band of the Year 2008 winner Brian Mc Farlane, would be beamed throughout the world as “the mother of all cultural shows.”
The English team will arrive in T&T via private jet on May 29 following their match against the United States at Wembley Stadium, London the day before. On May 30 they will take part in a training session open to school children and the media at the Hasely Crawford Stadium beginning at 9 am.
Later that day at 6 pm, a coaching clinic conducted by coach Fabio Capello and two England players will take place at the Marvin Lee Stadium. The clinic will feature 60-70 selected young local players and will be open to the public.
That night, a media reception featuring approximately 200 invited BBC journalists will take place in Movie Towne.
On May 31, a media conference will be hosted at the Hyatt Hotel featuring coach Fabio Capello and captain John Terry followed by a dinner for the two teams which will be hosted at the President’s home in St Ann’s.

Pricey England tickets under fire.
T&T Newsday Reports.
The Trinidad and Tobago public reacted with surprise at the high cost of tickets for the upcoming friendly football international between Trinidad and Tobago and England.
Several former top footballers were among those who felt that the tickets for the 26,000 plus seats in the Hasely Crawford Stadium at Mucurapo were overpriced for the June 1 match.
The match between 2006 World Cup team Trinidad and Tobago Soca Warriors and England is organised by the TT Football Federation to celebrate their 100th anniversary. But fans will have to fork out hefty sums for tickets.
Jack Warner, Special Advisor to the TTFF announced on Tuesday that All Inclusive tickets will cost $1,200; with $600 for the Covered Stands; and $300 for the terraces.
Football enthusiast Tansley Thompson, a professional boxing promoter and manager was among those adding his voice to the chorus describing the prices of the tickets as “ridiculous”.
Yesterday Haynes, a former national captain and prolific striker criticised the Trinidad and Tobago Football Federation (TTFF) for charging a price that he considers outside of the range of the average local football fan.
“It is the poor man who would normally be the ones to attend and support the sport,” Haynes said.“By charging that amount of money you are asking people not to attend the game.”
He called on the TTFF to put out their own money if they want to celebrate their 100th anniversary by staging the match expected to cost in excess of $15 million.
Haynes also slammed the football federation for what he described as “indiscriminate pricing”, saying they are hiking up their cost at a time when already food prices are out of the reach of some sectors of the population.
And in giving a breakdown of the price for which tickets should be offered Haynes said, “For the most, the game should be $600 or $700 for VIP and broken down for Covered and Uncovered Stands.
Thompson told Newsday that the prices being charged are discouraging to young budding footballers who may want to see their heroes in action.
“To attend a match with such a price you should be getting dinner, lunch and punch,” Thompson said disappointingly.
He expressed the view that he was willing to attend the game and pay for about three young men, but said with the prices, it seems now that not even him would be able to attend.
Thompson questioned how could one attend a football game with such prices comparing it to the spiralling food prices which has reached crisis proportion.
Meanwhile Brian Williams, a former national defender in the Strike Squad of 1989 said he does not know about the prices charged for top international games such as this one, but feels that the amount being asked to attend may be too high for the average football fan.
Paying the piper.
By: Fazeer Mohammed (Express).[/size]
I know many of us are upset about the price, but is the anger really directed at the man who is justifying it?
There is no question that the Trinidad and Tobago Football Federation (TTFF) suffers from a serious credibility problem, much of it having to do with the domineering presence of the Member of Parliament for Chaguanas West. Still, you have to give Jack his jacket for, as he implied on Tuesday, if people rush to pay a whole heap of money for coonoomoonoo events, there should be no problem filling up the Hasely Crawford Stadium on June 1 for the first-ever full international played by England in this country.
Whatever opinions we may have about Jack Warner as a football official and a politician, the inescapable reality is that it is only because of the considerable status and influence of the FIFA vice-president that the English are coming here, ostensibly to mark the centenary of the TTFF, but really to keep currying favour with a man who, as the undisputed head of CONCACAF, holds 35 votes in the palm of his hand, votes that the English authorities are desperate will go their way in determining the hosts of the 2018 World Cup finals.
Whatever our indifference to the apparent status of the England national team as a superpower in the game, you cannot avoid the almost magnetic attraction we seem to have towards their football. It is partially a legacy of colonialism, an almost automatic recognition that anything they do must be just about the best and therefore worthy of admiration and emulation. But it is also about exposure (most of us grew up watching English football on TV every weekend and know more about Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal and Liverpool than the Pro League teams right here) and effective global marketing to the extent that a top-of-the-table clash in the English Premier League can attract a television audience equivalent to almost one-sixth of the entire population of the planet.
So we're talking top drawer here in terms of the global marketplace. And top drawer means top dollar, so it isn't even a calculated risk to establish prices which are considerably higher than what would have normally applied, even for a critical World Cup qualifier just over two years ago.
Apart from the fact that a lot of people don't like Jack for whatever reason and remain suspicious of the accountability of the TTFF (how many times have we heard of the Federation incurring losses despite a ram-crammed stadium?), one of the other criticisms about ticket prices ranging from $300 to $1,200 is that the poor man, who might actually be the most loyal supporter of Trinidad and Tobago football, is priced out of the historic experience.
Well, and I know this may sound extremely harsh, that's just the way it is. Remember, this is not a gift to the nation but in many respects a business transaction, and people don't go into business to lose the shirts off their backs. So often we talk about sport not just being about Sunday morning recreation and healthy activity, but hard-nosed professionalism that requires a businesslike attitude if it is to survive and prosper in the modern environment.
This fixture between Trinidad and Tobago and England is a case in point, and the business people associated with the exercise are not in it purely for the love of the game or the generosity of their hearts, but for the profits to be made from it. They would have factored in already the negative publicity about the ticket prices, the occasional cussing they might get personally from some irate fan, and have calculated the value of the game based on what they perceive to be the appetite of the public to pay for it.
As for the true, true supporters complaining that they will be left outside, this situation is really no different from playing mas. The same grassroots people who grumble and get on about bandleaders digging out their eyes every year, yet somehow find the money because Carniva l just cannot pass them by, will also put together the three blue notes one way or the other, if they value what some may consider to be a once-in-a-lifetime experience to the extent that they are prepared to make sacrifices in other areas so as not to miss out.
It's the same as with food prices. If it's ridiculously expensive and not really essential, just don't buy it. If you do, even grudgingly, you are essentially validating the market price because there is enough of a demand to keep it at that level.
Would I pay $300 to be at the game on June 1? No, but then again I'm not only cheap and stingy, but don't value seeing the England national football team in action to that extent (not to mention that it will also be the third day of the second cricket Test between the West Indies and Australia in Antigua).
However, my older daughter, who should be focusing on the first stage of her CAPE exams right now, is already harassing my soul about getting a ticket for her.
If she somehow manages to extricate the money despite the scorpions guarding my wallet, then Jack and the others associated with this financial beanstalk of a football game will be vindicated. Time will tell.
Anyone out there knows where I can get scorpion vitamins?

If I was in TnT and could afford to go to the game I probably would go...I think a boycott is taking it too far, fans should not be criticized for attending the game. I also don't know what sort of message we'll be sending 'big teams' (and by the standards of our opposition, England is as big as we've had in quite some time) if they come to Trinidad to play and then the match isn't well supported...indeed we'd be shooting ourselves in the foot as fans.
This is why I like the idea of attending and showing the silent protest instead.
This is why I like the idea of attending and showing the silent protest instead.
That's the exact reason a boycott would be effective, the bigger the team, the bigger the occasion, the more impact it will have on the TTFF and the media (world and local) to raise awareness that the fans just are not happy. I've been hoping for a long time that the forumites/WN would try to make a stand for the good of T&T football and footballers but seeing some of the responses here, where people are generally more educated with regards to what the TTFF and Mr. Warner does, I can't see where the support will come from.
If you guys are not willing to sacrifice seeing the England team play or even try to make a real effort at bringing attention to the issues that concern the fans then every time there is another blacklist, another TV rights issue or another "ticket or leave it" then all of us needs to just STFU and bend over.
To all the guys who said that they would not join in any kind of action because trini people does only talk and never do nothing, well then i guess that by just making that statement you just made it true. Why not try to make an effort at changing the mentality rather than encouraging it.
I for one will not be attending the game unless there is some sort of effort at expressing our displeasure about what the TTFF stands for, so if we are wearing black (even in de damn hot sun) i'll be there and make sure everyone I know is sweating in de black also. The goal should be to educate people about the problem and even if participation is small this time, at least some more people may come to understand what the protest is about
Gothic whatever method folks choose to voice their displeasure is okay by me personally, as long as it is unified and organized. I just think it harder to tell a man/woman "come show up in Mucurapo leh we organize ah protest" than to say..."come leh we go to the game and show a sign of solidarity against everything the TTFF doing. If there is enough interest it can be done since people can purchase their tix thru the WN, therefore everyone can sit together in their black tees...people sure to say "who dem people siddung dey in black?...Why black, somebody dead?"
If anything it may put WN in a tenous situation with the TTFF, since ideally WN should be neutral in this and we don't want to give the TTFF any excuse for blacklisting WN from getting tix. But I'll leave that up to the WN leadership to decide.
Bottom line is that there are many ways to skin the cat...boycott isn't the only way, and doing nothing sure as hell isn't.
-
nobody ent saying nutten about de prices.
i actually find these are fair prices for the tickets.
-
Great Thinking .... Hope everything works out well
A step forward...
-
I just saw the press conference on CNC3
T&T will be wearing WHITE! and England their Red shirts
1000 tickets available in the VIP cat ($1200)
about 22,000 total ($300, $600 covered)
Purchase on-line or by phone from May 5
Max you can purchase per category is 5 tickets. So you could supposedly get 15 total, 5 in each category.
Marketing Tagline: A Score To Settle
hmmmm, why the switch ent our home colour is RED, why England cya play in dey home colours too which is White...not making sense to me... ??? Maybe that was in the arrangements....
PS: I support the wear black at the game, but everyone who wears black should sit together. The ideal would have been a total boycott, but we all know realistically speaking it won't happen in TnT.
Big Up!
-
ok so what about those like myself that would be purchasing it online before coming home but won't be back till after May 18th?
I assume once it paid for I can get someone to pick it up for me with my confirmation code etc?

At least have it for 2 days self oh shits man! One day is the same bacchannal for tix all over again.

Well we spot is by Movie Town so we go b dey in black. A score 2 settle and yuh eh playin Sancho? Come again

Simple maths, my friend. Jack will sell 46,000 tickets for the game and blame the new ticketing system!! Then he'll clone all of your cards and charge you twice :rotfl:
I believe Englands Umbro deals says they have to wear red shirts for a pescribed number of games. I can't remember if they alternate between red and white. I was at the England vs Switzerland match at Wembley and have a feeling they wore red that day..can't be certain, though.
-
it seems like a first come first serve basis....................i goin online to get mine i cud tell yuh dat
and for the slow ones doh worry it go have scalpers
-
You could organise black and white A4 size cards to hold up and spell out FPATT. It would be too hard to spell a sentence, so it would need to be a short word or pattern. Then it won't matter what shirt you wear. But it looks great if you can get 1,000 people to do it.
This has been done with great success at Man U, Liverpool etc.
-
i wearin black now for sure.
just thought about the sancho thing too... imagine how he feels...
after being so unfairly cut down at the highest stage.
that game should have been his shining moment, his dream commin true.... and yeah of course it wasnt in vain... but stilll.
with england wearin red and us wearin white!?
it's our country, why i can't wear red!?
like we're bowin down to them! they wanna promote their new kit!?
tuh f**k with dem!!! Dis eh important tuh dem... dis doh mean a ting... it does however mean a hell of alot for us... yeah dey wanna play well certainly not embarrass themselves, but wuh de ass.
and why can't i see Sancho... ah man who has fought so hard for us play.
ah wish we could play de full team with the blacklisted players against ah ttff fc and watch men like sancho and birchall jump kick greedy heartless and in some cases brainless (camps) like warner in dey fackin heads.
ah serious.
ah sick of all dis bullshit... ah go paint meh car fackin black too and ah go crash it through the marathon tunnel gates, see if i could aim for warner when he on de field or so.
ah f**kin fed up man.

OK Jefferz JW u eh worth goin 2 jail where black but doh try 2 kill him. He will meet his Waterloo

If we boycott the game the only ppl who missing is we on this site :rotfl: .I want my ticket >:(
-
Boycott or no boycot , the stadium will be full to capacity come june 1st. I know my ppl, they don't stand up against oppression, and they're not about to start now, my guess is, they wont miss this game for the world !! and neither would I if i was there.

Last night while listening to the news I got the impression it was a lottery system type arrangement, but re-reading the information above it does seem like first come, first served... :-\
Also, last night some rep from de TTFF (not one ah de croonies, some fella ah not familiar with) beg de public to give the ticketing system ah try before we condemn it....well we'll see...but....

Yeah a boycott will never work, the drawing card to attarctive to the average fan. But the average fan could be influenced to wear black, even if they doh believe in what they doing or they doh even know what it stands for...is part of the mob mentality.

Aye fellas... a newbie here. Been a big fan of the site for the last couple years, never been big on posting but I always saying I would start. So here it goes... I have a question concerning the tickets I gonna be in Trinidad for the game (based abroad) and I wanted to know what go be the best plan of action for those who can't pick up there tickets on the 18th etc..?

Have somebody pick it up for you.
Yuh must know somebody that could do that. If not maybe an forumit who get tickest too will give yuh a pull out.
You could also contact the TTFF and ask them i fthey have provisions to mail them out.

There was some mention of identification to be presented along with your confirmation code...so trinistallion ah feel yuh best bet is to contact TTFF for clarification on whether or not someone could collect them on your behalf...
And welcome to de forum.... :beermug:
p.s. ah was referring to this...
Distribution of tickets
3. The fan arrives at the assigned Ticket Redemption point to pay and receive his or her ticket or tickets based upon a confirmation code and identification.

It will have to be warrior nation if is any organisation

I don't see anything wrong in fans wearing a jersey in support of FPATT, it eh have nothing to do with weather fpatt is the instigator or not...I say if we wearing black at least wear something with a cause...
I fully understand where you are coming from, but this eh have to be ah fpatt initiative...just some supportors who fedup on the ttff.... :beermug:
Big Up!
-
When i read some of these posts it makes me wonder,i thought FPATT's eventual intentions are to work together with the TTFF for the betterment of our Football and to be a support for Footballers in the country,it seems like FPATT is being presented as the organization to oppose anything TTFF,when will this animosity end,it's only so much FPATT can do,the things we incinuating here will not help our Football,it's doing more damage than any thing else.The only thing i want to say about some of our posters is that if they had to depend on Football for a living they would never be talking the way they do.
-
So Small Mag, you call the FA for your ticket yet? You know yuh go have tohustle, is only 750 tickets for alyuh :devil:
ah on kix eh dread
-
Coops u cyah wuk wit people who ignoring that u exist. Why FPATT eh go want peeps 2 wear a juzzy 2 support dem? As 4 it being a WN activity dat might just end any recognition dat we will get from d vampire dem. Dat being said it eh no reason 2 do it. If Sancho etal lose dey career what we givin up does not even register on d richter scale.
BLACK IT IS
-
Seats - Price - Total
18,040 x $300 = 5,412,000.00
4,150 x $600 = 2,490,000.00
1000 x $1200 = 1,200,000.00
Grand Total = $9,102,000.00
Cants beat that for a friendly... and seats missing. Cause I know de stadium holding 26,000 maybe more.

Lol...you wicked eh?
At any rate, I suggest that folks thinking of printing up the T-shirts clear it with FPATT first, they may not want to be seen as being unnecessarily antagonistic towards the TTFF. An alternative might be some simple black t-shirt that otherwise indicates support for the blacklisted players.
As I type an idea just came to mind...how about a play off of the POW/MIA logo below
(http://tbn0.google.com/images?q=tbn:Os58p8QPcSoJ:www.rollingthundertn3.com/aa%252520rollingthundertn3%252520web%252520site%252520files/rolling%252520thunder%252520art/pow%252520mia%252520art/pow_mia_02.gif)
The whole MIA and "you are not forgotten" couldn't be any more appropo. The white circle could be a ball. Not to take anything away from E-man's great suggestion, just as an alternative should permission from FPATT not work out.
-
I'm gonna say it was omarldinho's suggestion. I was just trying to visualize it
Not to take anything away from E-man's great suggestion, just as an alternative should permission from FPATT not work out.
here's an idea:
How about everybody wear and distribute to as many patrons as possible some black FPATT jerseys.
That could be a statement in itself and it could raise awareness for FPATT.
Also to appease de fashion conscious I find a white FPATT logo on the front of a black jersey go look boss.. Almost like a Kappa flex.
How about a punisher t-shirt

I would be happy to contribute money for a "Where's the Money, Jack?" sign to be hung behind the goal at every US national team game so that it is seen by the media an TV viewers.

I have mentioned your proposals to a BBC sports reporter and put him in touch with the moderators.
I feel that the whole idea of a protest is right to come from the supporters, not from FPATT. You guys had the idea, so you should stick with it.
TTFF know how FPATT feel, but I'm sure they would be interested to see the feelings of the supporters.
-
TTFF know how FPATT feel, but I'm sure they would be interested to see the feelings of the supporters.
Too right. FPATT jersyes would only make it look like FPATT pay/induce people to protest.
Much better if it comes from the average fan.
Also don't think that the WN should be involved.
Just try and get as many people to wear black as possible, email, post on message boards, take an ad in the paper. If a couple people want to wear the same jersey great but the emphasis should be on getting as many people to wear black as possible. That should be uniform and recognizable enough.

Also don't think that the WN should be involved.
Just try and get as many people to wear black as possible, email, post on message boards, take an ad in the paper. If a couple people want to wear the same jersey great but the emphasis should be on getting as many people to wear black as possible. That should be uniform and recognizable enough.
Yeah JDB, this is what I've been thinking.....I actually been planning what message to put on my juzzy that will have nothing to do with FPATT or WN, but will get mih point across...
-
jack go come out and say he want people to wear white or black to support him
-
TTFF know how FPATT feel, but I'm sure they would be interested to see the feelings of the supporters.

Fully agreed..
in retrospect, the last thing we would want is for it to be interpreted that FPATT is taking a confrontational stance with the TTFF. Ditto for the WN.
Those who are going to the game should get the word out to their friends who are going. Word of mouth travels fast in Trinidad, and once we create an awareness of the cause in the press, then the message will get across on game day.
:beermug:

Yup that's the best way. I am glad to see people coming round to my way of thinking. This was never meant to be an organisation staging a protest, just the tru diehard fans letting the world know how we feel about the way Jack runs things here.
Spread the word via facebook etc. as well.

REVOLOUTION

jack go come out and say that those who support him will be wearing black
changed that for you ;)

Agreed.
I still say that folks should try as much as possible to wear something with a message printed on it though...otherwise we run the risk of it being written off as being some sort of fashion statement, black being part of the national colors and all.

This is where the press input will be important in the lead up to the game.
If there is an article in the press that says something like, "Soca Warriors fans plan to wear black to protest TTFF treatment of players and lack of accountability", then at least everyone will know up front what the people in crowd wearing black is all about..
And it will not be just a case of, "wham to dem imps over dey boy dey eh get de memo, is white we wearing".

and fellas remember to sing london Bridge is falling down like in Germany !

Except the message isn't just geared towards the local media.

i am supporting this 100 percent. 6 of us coming from bago in black, and we are spreading the word.
-
So arghm,
Just to clarify....
I chipping in the stadium. I taking squeeze and jam from the thousands who crammed by the entrance. I duck two bite and a kick from the horse that holding back the crowd.
I finally climb on the chain link fence and make meh way on the side to the front of the gate.
As I ready to walk thru the turnstile a BBC camera man/reporter push a microphone by meh face and say..."I see you are wearing black, and you are doing this why ??? "
What is my response ???
Lemme hear the prepared statement I supposed to make so I don't get ban from any future football events, not to have people on the forum watch meh ahow ( even though they doing so already) Not to offend any players, family, friends, acquaintances. Not have people around the world watch meh and say....look at this ass. Something that Fpatt is cool with, something that people who coming in the stadium with meh wont feel ahow. Something SW management in agreement with and dont get in trouble for since the protest come from their message board etc.
Yuh see I asking this because I trying to figure out what is the point! What is the desired outcome, what do we want to achieve, how is it going to be measured and finally what determines success or failure.
Spidey..good initiative, you do your thing, I ent fighting yuh down and I ent fighting down anybody who doing this.
But in this world you cant please everybody, and you must not help those who not helping themselves.
So
I have decided to do the following.
I am supporting team Trinidad and Tobago and the players who wear the colours and rep us on the field.
Football to me now is ENTERTAINMENT. A way to pass the time, to ketch some kicks and to enjoy myself.
I overs the fightup of Jack, TTFF, Camps etc.
I am not getting vex over who plays or does not play.
I not on no crusade to save any players, I ent want to rescue nobody from behind the bridge, I not fighting for money for nobody
Bigger protest have pass tru TT and gone..Keith Noel dress up how much people in black, lie down all how and what was the outcome...
Some of you here judging people for going to the game, some of alyuh go be vex if man ent wearing the right colours, some of you might be vex that I even type this but I ent business.
Reality is Jack and the TTFF ent business what colour yuh wear...ent yuh paying 300,600 or 1200 to come in....Story done.
The TTFF/Jack is the end all and be all of football in TT. Like it or not. We cant change nuttin.
Jennings write book, the whole world know he do ratch with tickets, etc etc. If FIFA the governing body condoning it why bother alyuh head.
Money talks that is the game and I dont see how the colour of a jersey..educating people on any issue ( as the whole world knows this already)
None of we could tell a youth man dont play football for TT and dont accept a national call up. None of us giving him the cap to help him fly out. None of us putting the bread on any player table...its they club doing that. If they gettin extra money playing for TTFF/JAck who are we to deny them their dream.
Half of you on this board living foreign and not here, the other half who here is a setta "yeah yeah I dey" when time come..alyuh nowhere to be found.... The rest is a setta peepers who makkoing from the side.
Is to enjoy life and not take on stress...and I not taking on anybody else own.
On June 1 I putting orn whatever clean in my cupboard and I going to enjoy myself.
See you at the game.
-
My major gripe is..
The ones that supposed to be doing this not doing this.
FPATT, the 16 players, they families friends etc.
If them ent looking to help theyself or going about their process in a different way why we have to work up ourselves? Why they have to rely on others who have no nothing to gain and everything to lose.
It supposed to be Harmony across all entities.
All we doing is stirring up ants nest and the only ones gettin bite is we the supporters. Not Jack, Not TTFF, Not FPATT, not the players.
Alyuh must learn to leave bachac nest alone.

Have you been living under a rock? What you mean the ones who supposed to be doing this ent doing it? FPATT and the players who care are doing what they can on other fronts. This is supposed to be a fan venture to show solidarity for the cause. You claim to be supporting the players wearing the colors on the field but your lack of analysis and insight into the situation is telling. This is not just about the World Cup veterans, but about the rights of future players to go on the field and represent us as well. Jack standing up on we neck and holding we football down while pocketing money that supposed to be for the improvement of our game...but why trouble that bachac nest, right? Shame too because you always struck me as an intelligent and insightful fella... real disappointing but say what.
Then again, why I fighting up with you...according to you this just "entertainment".
Wish I could say the same about you Coops but no surprise seeing you here applauding...anything pro FPATT you's de first man critical. Anything blasting Jack or the TTFF, you's de first man critical. Doh worry, keep hope alive, one ah deez days Jack go call yuh in fuh dat big wuk yuh holding out for.
-
Touches, I see where you coming from and is no scene with me. My intention at the start was not to force nobody to come there and wage a protest or boycott the game etc.
All I wanted to do was:
1) Show a solidarity or a support with the players who fighting for their money in court in England;
2) Let Jack be aware that all of we not stupid and turning a blind eye to all the bobol he doing with WE football
3)Let the international media know that we not just sitting here like yet another " happy, go lucky, third world country' who accustommed that whenever a black man get in power, he walk over the poor people, exploit and abuse them while we sit in the sun and worship him because we afraid of persecution. We are aware he is corrupt and we want him gone as much as the rest of the world does. What he is doing is not accepted by us either.
True, one passive protest not going to change anything but I think it better than ignoring the problem and just letting it continue without at least drawing some attention to it.
Is like if you know your neighbour chile is a big ganglord. U could just say is not we bizness and let him continue killing or u could at least let ppl know. Is still a question of choice as to whether u want to get involved or not.
Personally, I am not somebody who could just sit by and watch wickedness happening, but I know tha's not everybody.

Bakes if it wasnt for spidey throwing out this idea....Who was doing it?
You yourself said that Fpatt and others are fighting on other fronts....ok thats where the battle is supposed to be fought. Has WN, or FPATT come out and endorsed wholesale. Have they given spidey and others help with the cause besides mentioning it to a bbc journalist.
Bakes each party knows there is tension. Each party does not like what is going on. But for any advancement/improvement/any step fwd all parties concerned have to iron out their feelings come to a consensus. SOme have to suck salt, some have to feel aggrieved but everybody cannot be the big bad bully here.
I think you are going out on a limb with regards to the rights of future players etc. If a future player chooses to be represented by Fpatt that is their decision. If they receive any benefit or if they are ostracised that is their own as well.
If Jack pocketing money...so what? He do it since 89..he doing it now..I giving him 300 and the same people who wearing black in the stadium doing the same. How are either of us different...ent we both got him richer? If you not going in the stadium and standing up outside and wearing black..That is a different kettle of fish.
Bakes the ones who care are too few in number. The rest have overs the scene, some have accepted it as is and I looking for entertainment.
This game is not for the die hards....it is a game to make somebody rich. It is simply an opportunity for the die hards to see TT vs good opposition for a change and Jack has made it affordable for us to do so. For others it is the chance to see England.
End of the day stadium will be ram and it is those who dont give a fart/waggonist, those who ent know about Fpatt, WN, who on the field...those are the ones buying tickets and making jack richer.
As I said before Bakes...I on entertainment.

Thanks for the reply. I happy you took an idea and I hope it comes to fruitation and you get the support.
I find you going a lil overboard with point #3 But I understand and like your explanation at the end.
You do more than me, well done!!
I just decided to air my feelings on this issue and this is my stance on it. Who disappointed, who vex, no scene. But at least alyuh know my feelings about it.

If not Jack thiefing we would be some next crook right? Business as usual and Spidey's Point #3 is proven.

I know you are a true supporter, and your heart in the right place, but think again about this situation, maybe yuh jus upset that yuh fantasy jump down to th 40s and yuh jus lashing out ;D
Big Up!

Guys i know you all keep saying i does support the TTFF,anything anti TTFF i does jump on the bandwagon etc etc i have always taken the stance of trying to be neutral or weighing the options on both sides of what ever issues there are,i don't think any one on here feels the way i do about Football in T&T past or present,because i too have played under JW and even who was before him,i can honestly say i had some good and bad experiences,that does not mean i have to hate TTFF for that,i know real guys get destroyed by the TTFF and are still being affected today,i'm not saying it's right all i'm saying is the way we going about it will not work.
I applaud Touches because it's the best thing i've read on this topic so far,it's a matter of what makes sense and what does not,for instance,FPATT don't want to get involved or be a part because they don't want to upset what they are doing/relationship with the TTFF,WN don't want to come out because they too don't want to spoil theirs because when they want tickets etc etc it would affect them,all who talking about wearing black shirts will not be at the game,why are we afraid to put FPATT/WN on those black T-shirt,if i am proud of what i'm doing i'll wear it give me one, the only alternative now is to use the public as scapegoats to get the job done.
Football today the real Football fans don't go to Football because they can't afford,people that have money go to Football that's why TTFF will always survive,that's who Jack targets not me and you,they bring the lottery system for tickets, who are the people with Computers at home,the average fans in the village eh getting no ticket where they going,what they protesting for?has anyone thought of giving away black shirts?i think that way we sure to get a lot of support,i going home i'll hand them out if people afraid to do it,that's my contribution.
You know when i look at Football now it really sad,only a few might be able to understand what i mean when i say that because it's two generations i'm talking about,i'm not talking about which one was the best or anything of the sort,all i want to say is it was good Football,i just sympathize with who playing Football today.

Just wondering for all those who disappointed in my stance...
If I were to come out like batman. Placard in hand. Talk to BBC, all local papers.
Sit down outside the stadium and watch the thousands going in.
Send a right to the England and Trini bus.
What would be the outcome????
Would everyone here clap and applaud me...
Would any of the players stop the bus come out and give me a 5 and say good job. Thanks for the support!
When the action start you feel the 20,000 inside the stadium farting on me outside.
You feel the TTFF will even acknowledge my presence, if anything I will be removed as a security risk/nuisance.
It is a thankless job of which I am unwilling to do.
Of those disappointed...any of you will be in Trinidad and not going to the game because you want to send a message to Jack?
Fire for dat yes....
I going and watch birds in white short pants. I going and sip some beers with my partners, I going and see them English players who I does see on TV and who I put on my Fantasy league side in the flesh. I going and see My TT team rest some blade on them said players, some spanner and cap. I going and relive the England WC game that I did not attend. This game is my WC and I ent missing this for the world.When I ketchmehself the next day I will do my write up for those interested and life goes on...
I personally have other things to study when the sun comes up. In the scheme of things TT football, Jack, Fpatt, the players and their money all of this...have little or no bearing on my day to day activities......... I have switched off... simple. I will pay my money when the next game comes around and cheer for the XI who take the field.
-
Touches- a protest is just an expression of discontent. Don't place the protesters in a category of people with false hope- that's a very unrealistic outlook- protesters are people who have something to say, and are saying it- that's all. I think most of the people wearing black are just as realistic as you are about the chances of the protest making a difference.

its easy to yap, philosophize and condem form the comfort ah they ownhouse in front yuh pc scratching yuh balls......see how everyone quick to laud de idea..... lewwe see how many ah dem come out......then on de 2nd ah june they could prouve u wrong.

I hear and agree with yuh eh Touches, buh it ain't go lower the taste of the event or the beer 1 bit, if all yuh do is wear ah black WN or your own black designer juzzy.....it's not even ah solidarity or protest ting, as ah statement that yuh here and/but yuh aware...it ain't no politico overthrow the government tantanaa spidey talkin bout, is wearing ah juzzy, to show we know the time.. ;D if BBC ask yuh if yuh wearin black for the "fight against Jack"...hear yuh prepared statement..."Jack Who, is to match the ting in d white pompom shorts"...Yuh won't make the news, truss meh...personally, I doh think the colour shoulda be red, white or black....the colour shoulda be Blue(sqeeze balls nah) or some neutral colour so...buh enjoy the event and support yuh team still, come back home safe, and give we we report

Kicker I ent place nobody in any category. Me ent care who wear what colour, me ent care who else in the game...I going
I glad Spidey come up with the initiative.
I ent say as yet I not wearing black...I said I wearing whatever I have that is clean.
My first thing was to clear the air as to what was the point for wearing black, what is the symbolism, success or failure determination etc. SPidey the originator gave his views as to why he came up with it, the reasons etc so if anybody ask, we have something to say, to reference and relate to.
I realise I should not have played :devil: advocate and ask these kinda questions ( It was done so as to inform not only myself but others as to the process behind this).....but anyways in so doing I decided to inject my point of view....which was not popular.
But I spin it around a few times, I look at the facts, I look at the past history and I look at the issue at hand and after being told that my lack of analysis and insight into the situation is telling... I asked myself in the big picture, in the whole and total scheme of things what really was the point.
So I expressed my feelings and others did not agree but say what. I entitled to that....same way others entitled to do what they think is right and what gives them a sense of well being and satisfaction.
I like how the anonymity of the board can let each other express how they feel. At the same time all my friends who know me at whatever level knows me and where I coming from.
I am simply shifting my focus and emotion to having a good time...lets say it again....ENTERTAINMENT.
-
Touches, Who doh want to wear black doh have to. Is their prerogative.
I don't see what is the point of fighting down the initiative though - its your right to express yourself - but I don't see what purpose preaching your disagreement (and by extension dissuading others) will serve.
Is one thing if you have a constructive comment to make about the pertinence or not of the fpatt jersey (the people who against it make some seriously good points, and i change me mind about it), the sloganwe use, the means of relaying the info etc etc but just pulling down the idea on the basis that it won't work/is a waste of time/doh have the support of the first people concerned doh really do no good.
Dat is what is 'disappointing' about yuh stance, not the fact that you against the idea in and of itself.
Elan contribution more constructive in that regard - and he was a lot more severe towards the idea than you were.
-
Yuh cud wear a black FPATT jersey and explain to the people around you that you wanted to support the players organizing themselves to avoid things like the blacklist. I think that is a worthwhile reason.
It will not be a protest really cuz it will be about 20 people...maybe 100 if it promoted.
But how the ruling next week going to change things? if they get plenty $$ I guess you could still wear black?
What about WHITE FPATT jerseys? Dat way you supporting them and they don't have to worry about anything...they could even get players families and the like to wear the jersey....maybe have some players available for an autograph session the day before at an england vs T&T fans fete match
-
Guys, firstly, I would absoloutely love to be at that match on June 1st....but the wife and kids have(selfishly) insisted that they get a vacation this year, and I can't afford to bring them...so its gonna be Spain for me!
If I did make it I would wear black. No question. I don't care if England win. Its a friendly. Even more, to me its a friendly against friends. If we played Germany, France or Scotland I would want England to mash them up and I would be wearing my 3 lions on my shirt.
I fully understand Touches comments.
But this isn't initiated by FPATT, the players or SW/WN. Its YOUR plan. The supporters. If people ask why you're wearing black, its because of the death of democracy in T&T football. Its to show disapproval of Jack Warners stranglehold on YOUR game.
It will be briefly covered by the BBC. But, if only for a moment, you will get the attention of 20 million people in England. BBC may even interview a player about the world cup bonus fiasco.
But most of all, it will unite the supporters. You can say "We were there. We made our peaceful protest"
Like the student who stood in front of the tank in Tianamen Square.
Like Ghandi sitting in the road.
Like Mandella in prison for 24 years.
Like Martin Luther King saying "I have a dream".
All you guys have to do is wear a black shirt. A nice peaceful protest.
I won't critisize anyone who doesn't want to join in, you all have to do what you feel. But I know some of you didn't agree with FPATT initiatives, so heres your chance to make your stand for yourselves.
I really think that when I sit at home watching this match, with all the expected vibrancy and colour, its gonna look real strange to see awhole section of the crowd wearing black. The commentators will definately mention this, because it will be an unusual sight and its not a political protest as such.
I remember seeing a match in the 80's when a section of Wolves fans all wore surgical hats and masks. Mind you, that may have been for a more sinister reason.
Anyway, it will cost ou nothing, its peaceful and its yours. I really hope you do it and I wish you all well.

Suppose they stop u at the gate ,for wearing black . I would wearing it underneath my white shirt oui ,then put it out . Could someone pm me on how to get a ticket ?

Suppose they stop u at the gate ,for wearing black ?
run that by me again?

Spidey boy even if is me and yuh alone in de stadium in black...fine....I will be wearing mih black juzzy....and dey could haul mih away in handcuffs if dey want....(yuh allowed to wear makeup and get yuh hair and nails done in jail??....that's my only concern... ;D)
And when de BBC put de mic in front ah mih....ah goh say
"I am against what is happening in the administration of our football" or something along those lines......I eh goh be lying dat is how I feel....
De only thing to deter mih now is not getting a ticket....which in it self is foolishnes....dey 5,000 or so people who does turn up at the "regular" games shouldn't have to be going through this....but yeah daiz wha we celebrating, 100 years of this nonsense!!!
-
Touches, hear why i disappointed in you eh..
You manage to take this whole good idea of a silent, entirely non-confrontational public statement by the fans and make it into some kinda fan protest and confrontation that could end up with repercussions. All this talk about security holding you by the door, and the fans getting bite and suffering the consequences.. All this talk about who going and clap for me or care for me, everybody go be inside eh go fart on me outside like a nuisance..
You acting like jack warner on match day going and say, "yuh see de red man by de door in the black jersey? take he photo, take he name and ban him from all future matches". steups..
touches, giwwe ah chance with that shit nuh man.
Nobody eh tell you go and picket outside the stadium in the hot sun and go and fling stone at the TTFF bus. Nobody say go and chant songs of war and battle with security. Whats the big deal in picking the black jersey from outta your closet on game day?
Also, you see this assertion you peddling with regards to the foreign base talking but not willing to come down and act? Now most times i right in agreement with that eh because I tired see that in its full glory..
But i really, really dont see how wearing a black jersey is any skin off a man back foreign based or local based.. Ent is ah free country?! I could only speak for myself, and i dont even feel foreign based since i only buss it a couple months ago. But if i was there, for sure i would wear a black jersey without even a second thought. But i'm guessing thats too much to ask of you to abandon that best arsenal kit you want to coast at the game that might impress the smallie in the white pants.
This is a simple statement of discontent with the TTFF, the way they are running their organization and their treatment of our beloved soca warriors. This is a supporter's initiative end of text. Thats what you can tell the BBC if they stop you outside and ask you. You don't need no one to applaud you. Who knows if the players will even recognize you, appreciate you or give you that coveted high five. This is something personal you are doing as a believer in our players and our football, it have to carry some kinda significance for you and you alone.
I not on no crusade to save any players, I ent want to rescue nobody from behind the bridge, I not fighting for money for nobody
Bigger protest have pass tru TT and gone..Keith Noel dress up how much people in black, lie down all how and what was the outcome
Is to enjoy life and not take on stress...and I not taking on anybody else own.
The ones that supposed to be doing this not doing this.
If them ent looking to help theyself or going about their process in a different way why we have to work up ourselves? Why they have to rely on others who have no nothing to gain and everything to lose.
Alyuh must learn to leave bachac nest alone.
Breds, I will not lie.. Yuh see all dem ting you say there have me lil worried about you.
While i understand your frustration, you must not let these thoughts make you into the kind of person that floats along in life, taking any shit that come there way because you feel you do not have it within you to make a difference. Never deny yourself the power you have as an individual. You need to come better than that.
Touches, that is the 'steups mentality'. That is why people will pay any price for bread, doubles, food and gas instead of making a personal statement of looking for alternatives.. That is why corruption, from the corporation to the Licensing counter will always be so rife in our country and go unchecked because no one makes a serious problem about it. That is why people will continue to live in a system of governance they not happy with and allow our leaders to do as they so please.. That is why people see their neighbors shot in broad daylight and turn a blind eye..
And what even worse, is this is not even something you doing that calling for you to sacrifice any kinda personal security, entitlement, comfort or rights to make a statement. All you doing is wearing ah jersey.
I cannot fight you down for whatever you decide to do, but I can sure as hell attack your opinion here just as we do everyone else's every day of the week.
And what is the most disappointing in all of this is, that I believe you are a poster thats been around a long time and carry a certain amount of respect around here.. And yet you choose to pour cold water on a good initiative to show support for the players who represent us and we love so much.
I've always said that Trinidadians are not the type to unite to make any kind of statement whatsoever. But i was feeling strangely optimistic about this one.. but now i feel that was just a pipe dream..
Oh well..
-
Excellent post Omar..... :applause: :applause: :applause:
-
We need somebody like a "Tubal Uriah Butler " who can calvanise the frustrations of the people into a force that will CONSTANTLY demand fairness and transparency within the TTFF....until then Jackula will continue to do what he KNOWS he and his FIFA buddies can get away with.
Man I dislike FIFA with a passion.

How did I do this Omar? What measures have I put in place to make it a fan protest with repercussions? Between 4 o clock yesterday and today on a message board.
Whats the big deal in picking the black jersey from outta your closet on game day?
Where above in any of my posts did I say what colour jersey I would have on?
Also, you see this assertion you peddling with regards to the foreign base talking but not willing to come down and act? Now most times i right in agreement with that eh because I tired see that in its full glory..
i only buss it a couple months ago. But if i was there,
So yuh casting judgement on me who ask a question and you not here in the Stadium with your black jersey on....You adding to the protest how? You sending a message how?....Thanks.
This is something personal you are doing as a believer in our players and our football, it have to carry some kinda significance for you and you alone.
Well Omar you make a statement there and I am letting you in on my thoughts....While I will always root for Trinidad and Tobago, I am not a believer in our football anymore. It has no significance for me anymore.
Breds, I will not lie.. Yuh see all dem ting you say there have me lil worried about you.
Thanks eh

Omar I not floating, I swimming against the tide everyday , I just do not want to make a difference with regard to the battle with Jack and the TTFF.

Well Omar I am on a no carb diet so I dont eat bread and I have not had a doubles since it moved from 3$. and yes you highlighted what happens here in TT however for a change to begin it must happen from the inside. You do not cut off your nose to spite your face.
And what even worse, is this is not even something you doing that calling for you to sacrifice any kinda personal security, entitlement, comfort or rights to make a statement. All you doing is wearing ah jersey.
You know this how? You are assuming plenty...do you know if I even have a black jersey in my cupboard? Have those who initiated this protest have them to distribute? As for comfort....Omar you really asking that question? You ent see Poui tree blooming out of season here because the sun so hot.
And what is the most disappointing in all of this is, that I believe you are a poster thats been around a long time and carry a certain amount of respect around here.. And yet you choose to pour cold water on a good initiative to show support for the players who represent us and we love so much.
Omar this is my personal stance and I am entitled to it.
I've always said that Trinidadians are not the type to unite to make any kind of statement whatsoever. But i was feeling strangely optimistic about this one.. but now i feel that was just a pipe dream..
Why, Because I made three posts and asked certain questions??....Am I really that powerful? Do my posts make people think? Omar yuh looking for excuse....all those who want to wear black will do so and all those who dont want to will do the same.

You are very right.
I am not there, so I cant contribute in the flesh.
But if my words here, and my interactions with my friends results in at least 1 more person wearing a jersey to contribute to this cause, then I will feel like I have done my part.
Conversely, if your diatribe turns 1 person away, then your input could be deemed counter productive.
PM your mailing address, and I can post you a black jersey if you really dont have one in your cupboard.
-
Why, Because I made three posts and asked certain questions??....Am I really that powerful? Do my posts make people think? Omar yuh looking for excuse..
Actually yeah, yuh posts are that powerful
Most of allyuh learned football junkies on this board could sway the opinion of a fence sitter ..people who does lurk here regularly but never post & unsure about wearin black, could simply make up their mind after reading your post ...'yeah touches make sense dey'
I agreee with Omar et al that Trinis doh stand fuh nuttn...but I also agree with you, in that, even if EVERYBODY in the stadium wear black...as long as the ticket paid for..allyuh not hurtin Jack
Yuh see how jack & ollie start to get on like dey in pain de minute de new sports minister say "money done" THAT is de chemotherapy for de campcer
moreover to underscore the cause..all the black shirted ppl hadda sit together, if they scattered all over the stadium it go jus look like Fpatt and KFC had a free t-shirt giveaway everytime somebody buy ah 2 piece wit fries
either way, even if you go in a polka dot shirt...make sure and post a detailed report
-
Suppose they stop u at the gate ,for wearing black . I would wearing it underneath my white shirt oui ,then put it out . Could someone pm me on how to get a ticket ?
That's actually a very legitimate question and one I too am concerned about, to that end I was going to suggest that folks walk with something extra just in case....I wouldn't put it beyond Jack and his cronies, even though it's the supposed to be the gov't running the show.
-
Guys, firstly, I would absoloutely love to be at that match on June 1st....but the wife and kids have(selfishly) insisted that they get a vacation this year, and I can't afford to bring them...so its gonna be Spain for me!
If I did make it I would wear black. No question. I don't care if England win. Its a friendly. Even more, to me its a friendly against friends. If we played Germany, France or Scotland I would want England to mash them up and I would be wearing my 3 lions on my shirt.
I fully understand Touches comments.
But this isn't initiated by FPATT, the players or SW/WN. Its YOUR plan. The supporters. If people ask why you're wearing black, its because of the death of democracy in T&T football. Its to show disapproval of Jack Warners stranglehold on YOUR game.
It will be briefly covered by the BBC. But, if only for a moment, you will get the attention of 20 million people in England. BBC may even interview a player about the world cup bonus fiasco.
But most of all, it will unite the supporters. You can say "We were there. We made our peaceful protest"
Like the student who stood in front of the tank in Tianamen Square.
Like Ghandi sitting in the road.
Like Mandella in prison for 24 years.

I won't critisize anyone who doesn't want to join in, you all have to do what you feel. But I know some of you didn't agree with FPATT initiatives, so heres your chance to make your stand for yourselves.
I really think that when I sit at home watching this match, with all the expected vibrancy and colour, its gonna look real strange to see awhole section of the crowd wearing black. The commentators will definately mention this, because it will be an unusual sight and its not a political protest as such.
I remember seeing a match in the 80's when a section of Wolves fans all wore surgical hats and masks. Mind you, that may have been for a more sinister reason.
Anyway, it will cost ou nothing, its peaceful and its yours. I really hope you do it and I wish you all well.
Kent, I often have to stop and tip my hat to you because it's easy to forget sometimes that you have no official ties to TnT and the warriors, yet sometimes you display more passion for TnT football than some of my own compatriots- and that's no bash at Touches or anyone else in here uninterested in or turned off by the proposed protest....just an observation.
Matter of fact I think you lime with us too much..."mash them up"?? lol...unless you guys say that in England too, I guess some Trini colloquialism seeping into yuh lingo :beermug:

I agree completely, we have to sit together to have any kind of visual impact.... It will be hard i know especially with the crowd, but if you all really serious about doing this then we'll have to organise to meet at a specific location outside the stadium for a specific time and try and battle it to sit in we WN corner flag area...or any area we cud dam get...

I was now reading that(posted before i read the board because i was having an argument with some co-workers) It burns me to know the barmy army coming and i won't be going but i decided that i will be standing up against oppression more now and by boycotting this, that's my stand. Even if it's by myself, i'll stay strong and go all the way although it burns. The wearing black thing is a pretty good idea but the fans will still have paid their money. It will also be hard for it to be successful since there are way too many posers who will be going to the game (unfortunately) and they just turn it into some kind of catwalk. I was alone in the Bahrain game (last game i saw T&T play in) and it seemed as though it was halftime throughout the game because most people were just walking around modelling (good eye candy though) and disturbing my view of the game. Black isn't the most fashionable colour today so the posers and non-supporters will find it hard and most likely won't even give a sh1t about a protest. Good luck in getting support though but for it to work, it'll need more than a post on this forum. I suggest it be posted on every possible forum, triniscene, trinituner and whatever other forum trinis gather on.
-
Good idea although you all would still have paid but it's going to be hard to pull off in any big numbers. We practically have a month to spread the word as far as possible and judging from the responses so far(only 6 pages) it's not getting too far out there. We need to post on all forums where we think trinis are gathered, send emails or even get a radio announcer to bring it up somehow. I'll not be going to the game but i'll support the black day.

Purchase policy:
Purchase Policy
Our goal at TTFFONLINE.com is to make your purchasing experience easy, efficient and equitable, so we can get you on your way to live events as quickly as possible. The following purchase policies are designed to ensure your satisfaction and understanding of the purchase process on TTTFFONLINE.com. If you have any questions about the information below, please contact us at (868) 623-7312 or (800) FANS. This Purchase Policy is subject to, and incorporates by this reference, the terms of use. Each ticket that you purchase is a license to attend a particular event of TTFF, and is subject to the additional terms set forth on that ticket.
Currency
All ticket prices for events that occur are stated in Trinidad and Tobago Dollars. All ticket prices for events that occur outside of Trinidad and Tobago are stated in the respective currency of the home country.
Payment Methods
TTFFONLINE.com accepts several methods of payment to accommodate your needs. If the event for which you are buying tickets is located in Trinidad and Tobago, TTFFONLINE.com accepts Cash payment, Visa, and MasterCard.
Pricing and Availability
TTFFONLINE.com sells tickets on behalf of promoters, teams, bands and venues, which means TTFFONLINE.com does not set the ticket prices or determine seating locations, except under limited circumstances.. Tickets are generally sold through several distribution points, including online, Phone Centers, Retail Locations and box offices. Most distribution points generally access the same ticketing system and inventory. Therefore, tickets for popular events may sell out quickly. Occasionally, additional tickets may be available prior to the event. However, TTFFONLINE.com does not control this inventory or its availability..
Order Confirmation
If you do not receive a confirmation number (in the form of a confirmation page or email) after submitting payment information, or if you experience an error message or service interruption after submitting payment information, it is your responsibility to confirm with your Customer Service Department whether or not your order has been placed. Only you may be aware of any problems that may occur during the purchase process. Trinidad and Tobago Football Federation (TTFF) will not be responsible for losses (monetary or otherwise) if you assume that an order was not placed because you failed to receive confirmation.
Convenience Charges and Order Processing Fees
Tickets purchased on TTFFONLINE.com and via 800 (FANS) hotline are typically subject to a per ticket convenience charge and a non-refundable per order processing fee. In many cases, delivery prices will also be owed.
Amount of Tickets Per Customer or "Ticket Limits"
When purchasing tickets on TTFFONLINE.com , you are limited to a specified number of tickets for each event (also known as a "ticket limit"). This amount is included on the unique event page and is verified with every transaction. This policy is in effect to discourage unfair ticket buying practices.
Opening Acts
Opening acts or guests may sometimes tour with headlining performers. Trinidad and Tobago Football Federation (TTFF) is not always made aware of opening acts or the length of their performances. These opening acts are subject to change or cancellation at any time without notice. No refund will be owed if an opening act is changed or canceled.
Refunds and Exchanges
Before purchasing tickets, carefully review your event and seat selection. Policies set forth by our clients, including venues, teams and theaters, generally prohibit Trinidad and Tobago Football Federation (TTFF) from issuing exchanges or refunds after a ticket has been purchased or for lost, stolen, damaged or destroyed tickets.
If you purchase tickets through TTFFONLINE.com to an event located outside of Trinidad and Tobago, you will receive a refund of the amount you paid for that ticket if: (a) the ticketed event is canceled (in which case you will not receive a refund of any delivery fees), (b) that ticket does not allow you to enter the ticketed event for reasons that may include, without limitation, that the ticket is counterfeit or that the ticket has been canceled by the issuer due to non-payment, unless the ticket is canceled due to an act or omission by you, (c) that ticket fails to conform to its description on this web site, or (d) you failed to receive that ticket.
If you purchase a ticket through TTFFONLINE.com to an event located in Trinidad and Tobago, Trinidad and Tobago Football Federation (TTFF) will provide to you a full refund of that amount you paid for that ticket if: (a) the ticketed event is canceled, provided that if the ticketed event is canceled then the order processing and delivery fees will not be refunded; (b) that ticket does not grant you admission to the ticketed event, unless the ticket is canceled due to an act or omission by you; or (c) that ticket fails to conform to its description on this webs site, or (d) you failed to receive that ticket.
Cancellation
If an event is canceled, please contact us for information on receiving a refund. If the event was moved or rescheduled, the venue or promoter may set refund limitations. Contact us for exact instructions.
Please make sure to include/provide your account number so we can expedite your refund if applicable.
If you purchase a ticket through TTTFFONLINE.com and via 800 (FANS), and a refund is issued, then the Trinidad and Tobago Football Federation (TTFF) will most likely give you a refund by issuing a credit to the credit card that you used or the payment option that you used to purchase that ticket unless that ticket the holder of the ticket will not be able to physically present it for a refund. If a ticket is purchased through a TTFF Retail Location and a refund is to be issued for it, then you may only be able to receive the refund by presenting the ticket yourself to the Retail Location where it was purchased.
TTFFONLINE.com typically only offers refunds and/or exchanges based on the promoter's, team's or venue's instructions. In order to receive a refund or an exchange that may be offered, you will have to comply with the promoter's, team's or venue's instructions or deadlines, which, along with the decision about whether or not to issue a refund or an exchange, may be at the promoter's, team's or venue's discretion.
When TTFFONLINE.com and 800 (FANS) issues you a refund for a ticket, it will issue a refund of the ticket's face value paid (or, if a discounted ticket, then instead the discounted ticket price paid), the facility fee and the convenience charge, unless the ticket was sold through a retail outlet in which case TTFF will issue a refund of the ticket price you paid at the retail outlet and the convenience charge (if any) you paid.
If a refund is issued, it will be issued using the same method of payment that was used to purchase the tickets. If a credit card was used to make the refunded purchase, then only that actual credit card will receive the credit for the refund. TTFF will not be liable for travel or any other expenses that you or anyone else incurs in connection with a canceled or postponed event.
Billing Information Verification
Orders are processed only after a billing address, and other billing information, has been verified. Occasionally, we receive incorrect billing or credit card account information for a ticket order that can delay processing and delivery. In these cases, Trinidad and Tobago Football Federation (TTFF) customer service will attempt to contact you, using the information provided at the time of purchase. If Trinidad and Tobago Football Federation (TTFF) is unable to reach you after its initial attempt, Trinidad and Tobago Football Federation (TTFF) may cancel your order and may sell your tickets to another customer without further notice.
Delivery Options
TTPOST, FEDEX, DHL and UPS
Pricing and Other Errors
If the amount you pay for a ticket is incorrect regardless of whether because of an error in a price posted on this web site or otherwise communicated to you, or you are able to order a ticket before its scheduled on-sale or presale date or you are able to order a ticket that was not supposed to have been released for sale, then: Trinidad and Tobago Football Federation (TTFF) will have the right to cancel that ticket (or the order for that ticket) and refund to you the amount that you paid. This will apply regardless of whether because of human error or a transactional malfunction of this web site or other Trinidad and Tobago Football Federation (TTFF) operated system.
Multiple Browser Windows
When ordering tickets online with Trinidad and Tobago Football Federation (TTFF), please ensure you are looking for tickets and placing an order using only one browser window. Looking up tickets using multiple browser windows could result in losing your tickets or timer expiration.

Balls and other objects may fly into the spectator area during an event. Despite spectator shielding, injury can occur. Stay alert at all times before, during and after play or performance. If struck, immediately ask usher for directions to a medical station. By purchasing a ticket through Trinidad and Tobago Football Federation (TTFF), you agree to the terms of this Purchase Policy on behalf of yourself and any accompanying minor. You assume all risks incidental to the event for which a ticket is issued, whether before, during or after play or performance.
License; Ejection and Cancellation; No Redemption Value
Event Providers reserve the right, without refund of any amount paid, to refuse admission to, or eject, any person whose conduct management deems disorderly, who uses vulgar or abusive language or who fails to comply with Event Provider rules. Breach of terms or rules will terminate your license to attend the event without refund. A ticket is a revocable license and admission may be refused upon refunding the ticket's face amount. A ticket is not redeemable for cash.
Recording, Transmission and Exhibition
You agree not to record or transmit, or aid in recording or transmitting, any description, account, picture, or reproduction of the event. You grant permission to utilize your image, likeness, actions and statements in any live or recorded audio, video, or photographic display or other transmission, exhibition, publication or reproduction made of, or at, the event (regardless of whether before, during or after play or performance) in any medium or context without further authorization or compensation.
You Are Subject to Search
You and your belongings may be searched on entry. You consent to such searches and waive any related claims that may arise. If you elect not to consent to such searches, you may be denied entry to the event without refund or other compensation. Under certain facility rules, certain items may not be brought into the premises, including without limitation, alcohol, drugs, controlled substances, cameras, recording devices, bundles and containers.
Unlawful Re-Sale of Tickets; Commercial Purposes
Unlawful resale of tickets (or attempt) is grounds for seizure and cancellation without compensation. A ticket shall not be used for advertising, promotions, contests or sweepstakes, unless formal written authorization is given by the Event Provider, provided that even if such consent is obtained, use of Trinidad and Tobago Football Federation (TTFF) trademarks and other intellectual property is subject to Trinidad and Tobago Football Federation (TTFF) consent.

MaxG, it is a very common practice for all who goin to a game to wear the same colour shirt, especially during the playoffs.
What is expected at the game in TnT, is that wearing "Black", will turn heads so to speak, to bring the fans frustration concerning the TTFF to the forefront.

Thanks a mil breds!

Fatz.....hell will freeze over before yuh get a boycott of this game en masse....dat is de reality...so I had decided a while back to go to de game and wear a jersey with some message on it....
Even if is I alone in de stadium wid de jersey and people watching mih funny....fine....den Spidey came up wid de idea of wearing black which I don't mind doing....like yuh say to get de point across we goh have to organise sitting together and (because is Jackula we dealing wid) we might have to find a way to sneak de damn jersey in de stadium if it comes to that...
So I understand what yuh trying to do but we eh have de gumption for it not in TnT...at least not now... :beermug:

All the no balls trinis, just keep bending over and taking it from the back, we do that in everything and it seems there will be a gay pride parade just now. KFC gone up, they quarreling while in the line then smile with the cashier and make they order. Chicken prices cut in half is a headline in the papers today, yuh think KFC price going and drop, NO and not one man jack will breathe a word, just continue to fatten prestige pockets. The same goes for the football all the money they made for the cup, they try to hide it, the government blow the whistle on them and they still trying to hide, ease we up and give the fans a bligh. Warner throwing dollar party for carnival, why doesn't he throw a TT$100.00 football game as a show of appreciation for the fans. Boycott of the game will be the biggest statement we could make as a people. The wear black thing is just a sugar coating of sh1t and the end when yuh lick the sugar off, all you'll be left with is sh1t. I'm tempted as the days go by to buy a ticket but i'm holding my resolve so i'll go outside the stadium in a black jersey but i'll not go in and i challenge all the people to do the same. Also someone should try to contact Lasana Liburd, i think he will definitely be interested in writing something about the black day as i call it, he may even get Jenkins to write something in the English press.

just like with WASA
if we keep up de pressure de pipe will eventually buss

I personally disagree with the boycott because while we may succeed in embarrassing Jack it will do him very little measurable harm as he can easily recoup whatever financial losses elsewhere. Your suggestion is premised somehow on the notion that Jack intends to profit from the gate receipts...when in fact that is peanuts compared to the income to be received from sponsorship fees. If anything you hurt yourself by not being at the game, and we stand to hurt our football in the longer run as other 'big name' teams may hesitate to play TnT in Trinidad for fear that they are put in a position of embarrassment, being an unwitting party to the spectacle....or at minimum, showing up for a game in TnT that is sparsely attended. Which international side would want that?
However you personally feel like protesting is entirely within your right, I'm not trying to dissuade you...just providing an alternate perspective.

Exactly my point..them does do that regular & common just to back they team...some ppl questioning why, if it worth it, sun hot, wha we go say if confronted, how it go look, wha bout me 3 lion shrt, if ah ha one in the cupboard, would we be protesting, or not protesting...daa...daa.daa....long as we see England everything is everything.....I know for ah fact ah wida wear the Black or Pink or whatever, and LIME OUTSIDE THE STADIUM...once in ah lifetime event meh arse...ppl takin licks for ah lifetime, plenty more than once...I considered flying home for the game, till ah talk to meh mom - who has been around football since A Suite days, and now Warner, an at eighty + she still opening meh eyes & brain now and then, though sometimes ppl eyes wide open, we brain does be wide shut....dat is just me, buh me not vex with nobody else for seeing it differently and going to the game, cause that is why I get post away in the 1st place, ah chupidee so
ps: as a was goin and post, ah see yuh Bakes, and ah don't disagree with yuh eh..but the intention again is not to hurt Jack or anybody, but more than other Team wouldn't want to play we, cause they don't anyway, England probably doing this to get Jack votes. More importantly, the Federation would have to start getting themselves and stop taking our football and us as a play ting..again jus my op. Otherwise they have no reason to change cause we complaining(they obviously not hearing) and taking it (so everything cool, them jus like to complain).

Okay so if the intention of the proposed boycott isn't to hurt Jack then how is that better than wearing black in unison? Also yuh say the intent isn't to hurt Jack or anybody else but then yuh turn around and suggest that it would be a way of getting the Federation's attention? Kinda contradictory, no?
As for England only playing we to get Jack votes...maybe. Note I never addressed England though, I spoke about "other big name teams"... seeing England come and play us and (hopefully) benefit from the experience, that would be encouraging for other big teams in the future to similarly come play us on our home field.
At least that's how I see it.

Nah, ah doh think yuh have to hurt somebody to get dey attention, more like, by adopting a passive agressive stance to Encourage them to do their job or fulfil their mandate...cause we can't fire or remove them therefore we have to educate ourselves on what are the other alternatives, and let them know we are considering them...they may or may not work, but it seems what we do, wheter supporting, blindly or knowlegably just hasn't been working over the last few years, regardless of who we play or where we have been, historically or within the unpredictable future.

...by taking a stance that is likely to bring international shame/pressure on them, while having a minimal possibility of hurting our football in the long run.

Bakes, our football has been already hurting for a long run, regardless of the reasons. Is not now we have blacklist, or players not getting their dues, or Government, corporate sponsors getting rip off, or International coaches not getting paid, or the TT public being jammed 'ticket or leave it'.
Yet, I don't get why such a stance would bring 'International shame/pressure', the things the TTFF & Jack have said and done, on the International scene, to this day, and dey didn't have no shame, yuh think we could shame them ?
Our impotency in dealing with our own social situations - regardless of the powers that be - are more than likely issues that will cause more Intl embarrasments than a simple football stance. We went thru a holding of Government as hostages, shooting a prime Minister, Convicting and robbing of treasury (O'Hallaran eg) by goevrnment official, extremely High Criminal activities, etc..etc.. and we still Happy like Pappy, and we go cause shame cause probably 300-400 ppl didn't attend a game to make a statement ? I think not.
-
well...I have been reading all these comments and trying to digest some of the really deeep arguments for and against. My poor brain - anyway, at the end of the day I think that going to the game is best for OUR players- they need our support- not so? Yes I will wear black, and everybody I get a ticket for will agree to wear black- and I feel if a large number of us are wearing black instead of white, OUR boys will know that we are supporting them.
That's who I think will benefit. Who cares about the TTFF? What we need to do as a supporters group is to support the players.
The FPATT will then (if they live up to their promises) take that support and turn it to their advantage.
By the way- did I see somebody mention FPATT has black jerseys?
where do we get them?

Wait...I not following you. Are you saying that Jack and the TTFF cannot be shamed into dealing right with the players? If that's the case then why even bother with a boycott? You really think that gate receipts amount to any kind ah money for the TTFF relative to sponsorship and broadcasts rights?
To talk about the other 'social issues' affecting Trinidad and the effect or lack thereof on our national pride is to unnecessarily conflate the issue, because Jack Warner and his cronies aren't running Trinidad. Let's keep the discussion in it's proper perspective attacking this specific problem in a manner such that we strike at an area of vulnerability. My position is that given the magnitude of the opposition and given the prominence of the stage (200 BBC 'journalists', mind you) this would be an ample time to bring further attention and publicity to the TTFF's activities, and to let the footballing world know that we are not a passive people content to sit back and accept whatever is handed to us as our lot. This can be achieved in my mind thru both proposals...I just don't think the boycott is necessary. On the one hand to seem to endorse one course of action...yet on the other you seem to embrace defeatism by saying nothing can force them to change. But you don't see this as being contradictory.
-

Not to speak for them, but sometime in the near future...they're only now getting their hands on some money so they should be coming fully online with products and activities within the next couple months.

again nah not contradictory.... we want them to change their modus operandi, but we have been unsuccessful in crying for the changing of the guardians. Yuh follow meh ? I would like Jack, Camps, and their personal assistants to take ah side, but since we have no control of that, I hoping we can change how they think. operate or view the TT public and our players (FPATT for instance) with respect if nothing else... true respect, can go a long way to our own development. ..I agree with you however, the social issues are possibly for a another forum, another talk, yet I kinda view the total football issues (as well as all sports) as part of a whole make-up of our society.... As I said, though the majority would go, I would stand outside, and let the players and anybody who interested know, I there for them, and those after them...I want to see the boys handle deyself bad-bad too, and I not saying is the thing everybody could do, i just saying is what I feel may have to be done, and so I will hope I make the right decision..Will it work, I doubt, but I will still try..
I out, wuk dun
Like Cornflakes+milk all within the bowl...ah mean we could eat it in ah cup, or without milk or straight from the box, but is not quite the same, though some ppl do and like it so, me, I have choice I lactose intolerant, so either eat it different, or eat something else instead, well, it have other healthy, probably more so, altrnatives... jus kicksin, with the conflakes analogy, tryin to confuse the issue more :devil:
add: doh say how I contradicting eh, how ah want to go the game, but ah not going :D

meeting in shakers before de game for a couple warm up drinks?
-
Well I eh go lie, eh. I really disheartened.
The amount of people I talk to about this who praising Jack for getting us to the World Cup, bringing England to play us and doh know that he do anything wrong. They have an idea about the ticket thing for the last world cup but he was "acquitted, ent?" and this blacklist thing is apparently something that we on the board invent cause nobody outside of here ever hear it mention.
Maybe I lime on this board too much because I thought Jack's skullduggery was widely known. I now understanding better how Mafia men is considered heroes in their community despite the rest of the country seeign them crooks. Throw your ill gotten money into some initiaives here and there and all your sins are forgotten or ignored or denied.
I thought the sayign was "the evil that men do lives on after them while the good is oft interred with their bones". I starting to feel like is the other way around...
-
Not to mention the almost universal cry that "Jack wouldn't let anybody in black in the Stadium" and "Don't put it on facebook for 'them' to see what you look like". Talk about fear!
The man really 'great' yes...
Allyuh have me feeling like I living in a comic book where the whole world living in fear of some great being who sees all and you hadda whisper his name or look around you in fear that some police doh come and lock you away if you say anything bad against the 'great one'.

Has anybody actually done it yet, formed the group or what not?
I'm looking for it can't find it (and its amazing how much shite people put in "beliefs and causes" in Facebook in passing), but don't want to waste my time forming one if it already exists...

So...could you let someone else collect for you if you're not going to be in the country on the 18th?
-
Good question about d foreign base

I suppose the normal thing might apply.
Send the person with the money, a letter advising that they could transact business on your behalf, and a copy of your id together with all the other confirmation numbers you got when you called in or booked online.

Waaaay rel make-out scene.
It might be easier if I pay with Visa and just have somebody collect the tickets, right?
Unless they need you to present the card to collect...or...maybe tickets are just AVAILABLE to collect from the 18th...and you don't HAVE to go for them on that date?

Now yuh exaggerating.
Jack has his supporters and spies on here, his favorite canine press officer is also a member of the site, so invariably word of the plan to wear black as a sign of protest will filter back to him. If you think it's beyond Jack to issue a directive meant to stifle this protest, up to a ban on those who show up wearing black then I dunno what to tell you other than you apparently don't know the nature of the beast you're dealing with. I'm trying to be as realistic as possible in letting folks know what they might be up to should they enjoin this protest.

They were pretty clear about reclaiming and reselling the tickets if they are not picked up. I'd make sure you get a body down there on the 18th.
-

Busy tone upon busy tone. but it all paid off when a sweet voice answered and our bookings we're clear. but ah still find they should have put something in place for Tobagonians. anybody else get there bookings???

Bakes. I not looking for nothing. Do you really seriously believe that
1) a man with no criminal record etc who done pay his money (and was allowed to purchase it) could be refused entry to a public event on the simple base of the colour (note, not a slogan, not a banner, not a weapon) of the clothes he choose to wear to a match, in T&T?
2) Jack Warner or anybody else in the TTFF give a damn about any protest that not directly affecting their income (i.e.) non boycott.
If the answer is yes to both questions, then you saying that this is a no-win situation for anyone who willing to speak up because
1) on one hand, anything short of a boycott has no effect and wearing black is just pappy show (maxg, fatz)
2) on the other hand, wearing black is a potential recipe for getting blacklisted youself.
3) on the third hand (yes i know that not right) boycotting won't fo nothing because it could never reach a level to affect the TTFF financially and could potentially hurt the national team in the future (affecting future matches with big teams etc)
You really believe it that bad?

I not putting it past the man but I would LOVE to see ANYBODY tell me I can't go into the Hasely Crawford Stadium because of the colour jersey I choose to wear. I would LOVE to see if that is the country I living in. Because I would make a mint off of that, guaranteed.
My gripe was directed at those who claim to be living in a free, democratic country and ready to allow somebody to dictate those things to them. Somebody who is not even an elected official or head of the armed forces.

The TTFF seems to be stepping up their act....Getting frequent friendlies for both Local and A team.. Landing a huge international friendly on home soil..Introducing a New Ticket System which has been very good so far with the exception of the hour an a half overload...Getting the HCS Stadium repaired in time for Qualifiers..
Love him or Hate him... Well Done Mr Warner and TTFF...Keep up the progress...

I don't know how your basic human rights work in T&T, but I can't see anyway that even the police or govt could stop you entering a stadium with a valid ticket wearing a black shirt (even if it said "Warner is a beatchhhh).
Check the terms and conditions of attendance on the TTFF website and at the stadium.
Its your democratic right to take part in a peaceful protest providing it causes no danger, does not cause civil unrest and is not offensive or abusive.
Go for it guys..... BLACK JACK!!! :challenge:

When I get meh ticket and d real England team take d field I will say England gettin d WC in 2018

Small Mag, im all for giving Jack his jacket eh, but i eh get my ticket in hand yet, and until that time ill be cautious in bigging up the TTFF... That jus me.... Cuz yuh never know nah... But congrats to them nonetheless at least up this point....

He getting on like them fathers who does boast, " I TAKE CARE OF MY KIDS!!"
Thais the very least we supposed to be doing... so BIG STEUPS...

Soca Warriors, England match sold out in 24 hours
LOCAL football enthusiasts who didn’t get a ticket to witness the centennial friendly international between T&T and England—dubbed the biggest match ever to be played on local soil—will have to make up their mind to watch the high-profile game on television.
After just two days of sales, tickets that were being sold online were completely sold out, in spite of claims that the prices were to exuberant for the average football fan and queries about the new electronic ticketing system.
Special reserved tickets were priced at $1200 (includes parking, reserved seating, refreshments, and centennial memorabilia), covered stands at $600 and uncovered stands at $300.
These charges applied to adults, children and differently-abled persons.
There are seating allotments for 1,000 special reserved ticket holders, 4,150 for covered stands patrons and 18,040 for those in the uncovered stands. Total tickets amounts to 23,190.
Some 750 tickets (uncovered stands) have been allocated for the English “away” fans
Yesterday’s letter to media houses issued by TTFF Special Advisor and Fifa Vice President Jack Warner indicating that all tickets were sold out read:
“On behalf of the TTFF, I wish to formally announce that all tickets for the match T&T versus England have been sold out.
It is at times like this the work I do for the promotion of my country through football and elsewhere inspires me to continue, despite the ridicule and criticism.
I persevere through it all, confident that the results of everything I do will vilify my critics. Here we are on the cusp of our renewed efforts at qualifying for World Cup, South Africa, 2010 and the near impossible is achieved, that is, a final warm-up match between a full strength England national football team and T&T played right here at the Hasely Crawford Stadium.
In most parts of the world, pulling that off would have been lauded by all local sports officials and media. Instead, the platform has become a source of the usual criticism, this time about prices and the new electronic ticketing system.
Once again, the results speak for themselves as for the first time in the history of any sports event locally I believe, over 20,000 tickets have been sold out within 24 hours.
This reaffirmation of public support goes against the grain of all the doomsayers and armchair critics. The public has kept the faith. May we all use this event to rekindle that belief in ourselves, to inspire that strong sense of nationalism we encountered during the last World Cup and to move beyond the negativity and disbelief we too often display in ourselves.
May the nation rally as one, once again behind our team. The surge of support is evidently there, let us build the momentum. It is time to settle the score.”

Midknight I'll answer you here as well...
My point isn't to argue the merits of the action...i.e. whether Jack would be right to do this or not. My point isn't to discourage others from wearing black. All I saying is consider erring on de side of caution. Spidey as you yourself say, the average Joe on the street don't seem to make out Jack for being the bastard that he is. Forget about whether Jack cares about the protest or not...in the incident that he does, and he decides "who the hell is dem fellas from dat site tuh try and embarrass me on ah day when I bring England tuh TnT?". He then sends his minions to direct the unsophisticated, low-level grunts working security to bar "the fellas in de black shirts" from coming in. Dem ent go know is some illegal badmind scene jack on. Either of you really think them fellas will stop to consider the constitutionality of the directive...or would they say
"aye, de man and dem tell we not tuh let allyuh een...I ent know what dat about but I juss doing my job".
Far-fetched? Perhaps. But stranger things have happened under Jack's watch.
So the choice then is to
a) Walk with something extra and put on yuh black shirt after yuh reach inside.
b) Guff up yuh chest and walk up tuh de gate in yuh black shirt and dare anybody to trod on yuh constitutional rights as a member of the paying public. Risk ah rough up and you missing de game.
Later on that month Jack issue ah statement about it being ah "misunderstanding" and tell all ah allyuh who they denied entry to to come down Dundonald St. fuh allyuh refund. Neat neat story dun.
-
is dat his signature?
and no... i dont really have to give him a shit... this only proves the patriotism and or band waggonism of our people.
warner could go ahead and haul his ass.
Jack Warner ent have no kinda class or shame at all.. with tha letter right they.... that is de height of low class as far as i concern...
up to this day I still cyah beleive the kinda big balls he have!! at all at all
Gloating when a simple, "it was said that it couldn't be done, but we did it, thank you for your support" would have sufficed.
Jack wouldn't know the high road if he laid down in the middle of it and two semi run over he big ugly shiney face.
-
I find allyuh should rally behind de call and give Jack he f**king Jacket...a strait jacket.
de f**ker should be in ah mad house for de criminally insane!
How about ah lead jacket...and ah long walk off ah short jetty.
-
ah boy...i jus miss out..
site was down ad phones was busy no ass
steups
-
so what cancel my trip now steupsssssss ,no way I could get ah ticket now
Yow !! look how long you should've handle that king. yuh mean to say yuh wait till last minuite to cop tickets, any way you could still get tickets, BC they will have to make concessions for the english fans who making the trip, and there's still the scalpers. i think yuh safe. JMO. positive.
-
Yeah ah stick just once ,cause I remembered a co worker taking time off last week in may ,so I called by breddren in trini and tell him wait to buy ahhh . But I did good to sense I found out bout this yesterday .Got Tickets for 550 can return inculding airports taxes from my bro inlaw .Get permission from my wife ,get to go head from work all in a few hours .that pretty good man .
Yah think I should still take a shot at this eh .
-
wehhh only 2 days and ah hear all the tickets them gone. Think all the General tickets though.
Any of yawl made ur orders yet?
-
Man ah go say it like dis who scared tuh stand up fuh de rights is ah bunch ah punks. Scared of ah lil ruff up :o
Lets not forget of the main ting here. Is not tuh go see dis team play England that is an added pleasure. It is to protest the treatment of our heros and the monarchy that treatening the future by distroying the past and present for thier own gain.
We are afraid to stand up for our own beliefs, we should not dispite of the persons power or position. Martin was not afraid to walk dispite of the police brutality, and the student in (ah cyah spell it) Tiamin ??? square was not afraid of lock up and de tanks. We more concern bout seeing de game. I really don't believe what I am reading here. I wish I was home now. I would go tuh de stadium even if ah doh have ah ticket tuh stand out side de gate in mih black.
JW probably reading dis and laughing "look how de fraid meh" You all are giving him to much power. Right now you already give him alyuh mind. He in alyuh head once he deh de battle already lost.
Get him out yuh head and put de players (present and future)in yuh hearts. Those who fail tuh try........ ;)
Tuh me this is like looking at ah woman getting rape and every one just standing there saying "it eh right but he is we boxing champ so I eh go help she. He might hit meh or never box for we country again."
THIINK ABOUT IT :o
I believe this is ah great idea. When MLK wanted to march many brought doubts, many had fears of the white man, many lost what they held precious. It did not stop the peaceful protest and the result from the one decision is evident today.
We can not stand by and let this reign of terror continue.

i thought id hold back... buh really
occoner, where de f**k yuh bin eh?

-
hmmm...it possible..
but i doubt he could stop ppls comin in with them kinda nos.
if so his ass should be sued
these bitches figure they could do what they want with their money regardless if it right or wrong
but i eh seein them barring anyone from entering with a black jersey so
cause no matter what, not everyone is going to wear red or white as the case may be
cause i hear they calling for ppls to wear white since England rocking the red kit.
so if come with a red kit or even if i come in a outside colour like blue, what them gonna do?
i will be surprised if he able to even pull that off
jack need to mess with the wrong person who will take his ass to court one day
-
edit that....take his ass to court and win! lol
-
Anyone who paying via Credit Card get a call yet?
-
SM come to think bout it I eh get ah email yet.... :waiting:
-
omar and touches both had interestin arguements.
but at this point i gunna go ahead and wear black simply because it eh in de england flag... is de one colour we have that they dont and i just know i not conformin to wearin white, ah thought of that from the start... its ridiculous that we're not wearing red during our biggest match on T&T soil next to the Bahrain match self.
it's f**kery and im not givin in... i dont care how hopeless.

Fabio Capello believes ambitious targets set for him by the Football Association are achievable.
The Italian is expected to lead England to at least the semi-finals of the 2010 World Cup or Euro 2012 as part of the FA's four-year strategic vision.
And despite England's failure to reach Euro 2008, Capello says the targets have not put him under undue pressure.
"We must be positive and my personal objective in every team I have coached was to go to the top," he said.
"I am not under any pressure. It's no problem for me and it's no surprise these targets have been set. I believe that it's important to have these targets and to work towards them.
"We should all be confident of this because the team I have at the moment is capable of reaching these objectives."
Capello led England to a 2-1 victory over Switzerland in his first game in charge in February, but this was followed by a lacklustre 1-0 defeat away to France.
Both games were friendlies and the 61-year-old Capello will not get his first taste of competitive action until the World Cup qualifiers in September.
Before then England have further friendlies lined up with the United States, Trinidad and Tobago and the Czech Republic and Capello is likely to continue to experiment as he searches for a permanent captain.
FA chairman Lord Triesman insists the targets, imposed after an extensive review by English football's governing body, are realistic.
"We've got to work fast in order to get into tournaments and get through at least to the semi-finals, preferably win them," he told BBC Radio 5 Live.
"I'm no different from anyone else, I want us to win them, but I want us to at least make the final mix where you are playing the Brazilians or the Italians or where you are really in against the sides at the top.
"It's not only an immediate thing but it's a middle-term thing. Just doing it once wouldn't be good enough."
The FA's review also recommended the appointment of an international performance director and approved plans to have the National Football Centre (NFC) at Burton up and running by 2010.
Lord Triesman said that whoever takes up the role of performance director will not be Capello's boss, but will be charged with looking after the teams directly beneath the senior side.
"I want the very best person we can get and my clear preference is for someone who is English, if we can find the right person who can do it," he said.
"We need someone who understands sports performance but I feel strongly that unless that person understands football performance as well, they will not be able to do the job properly.
"The performance director needs to be able to understand what it is among our competitors that makes them so successful.
You look around the world at other countries who have done well tournament after tournament, such as Brazil, Italy and Germany and we have to make sure we learn everything they are doing."
Capello backed plans for the NFC, which he believes will play a major part in the development of talented young players.
"It is important to have a centre, to have a home - a place where we can go back and be together, spend time together, feel the spirit of the shirt we are wearing, regroup and achieve the targets that we want to achieve," he said.
"As we all know, only 38% of players in the Premier League are English.
"But having said, that there are lot of young players at the Under-21 level and younger that are very good so there is plenty of talent."

Hooligans in Europe, not just the UK always have some sort of plan for their actions. Much of their violence is linked to or aimed at like minded opposing fans or heavyhanded policing. It's much more rewarding for them to kick off in Europe as these criteria are much easier to get there. How often have you seen UK hooligans scrapping outside of Europe in the past..........never! They also prefer Europe as the local authorities usually just deport them.....for all these reasons I can't see why or the point of Hooligans wasting their energy to kick off in T&T.

In that website said those people are already banned from other european countries because what they have done. So i guess the will take this opportunity to finally go to another country to an england game. just hope customs know about this to block them
-
Is about time that we just reopen Nelson Island jail and send all our Trinidad gansters and British football hooligans to live together. That is the message manning needs.

British police are the strictest in Europe when it comes to monitoring their countries Hooligan element. Wherever and whoever England play they always liaise with the local police to update on and tackle threats. Not saying it has no chance of happening but it is extremely unlikely.
Plus, the fact that you say they are banned from most european countries means the UK police already have them on the hooligan database..most on the database aren't allowed out the country around the time of an England away game anyway.

Anyone who paying via Credit Card get a call yet?
I got a call back yesterday afternoon from the TTFF Accounts Department about 3:30 pm. They asked me to verify the code given to me when I ordered the ticket. Once verified, I gave them my CC details and the person informed me that I can collect my tickets on the 18th May where I would have to give them the code again in order to get the tickets.
I checked my credit card account a couple hours afterwards and it was charged for the amount of ticket I ordered.
So everything seems set. Lets hope all goes smoothly on collection day.

This bake and shark guy really from Trinidad?? How the hell will anybody stop a person from going into the stadium because they're wearing black, only a fool will let that happen to them but then again, Trinidad is a fools paradise at the moment. I called for a total boycott but there aren't enough people with balls so the no balls people may or may not wear black which is much easier to support and yet still man can't even do that. If you all do wear black, you all should stand throughout the game, that'll sure bring some attention since at least 3/4 of the other people will be sitting and chatting and not even taking on the game. You may also be hearing questions passing like which one is Gerrard, which one is Rooney, that tall one in the back(Terry) is Crouch ent... :rotfl: :rotfl:

Mystery of the FA's World Cup bid consultants
By: Matt Scott, guardian.co.uk
May 09 2008.
The Football Association's unexplained treatment of European Consultancy Networks, its contracted "World Cup bid consultants", will have been a fascinating aside to high-level talks at Fifa yesterday.
The FA's chairman, David Triesman, and the sports minister, Gerry Sutcliffe, made a first visit to Fifa's Zurich headquarters to meet Sepp Blatter. Under discussion were Fifa's 6+5 rule, Europe's sports white paper and how to increase cooperation between Fifa and the FA.
But the most intriguing element of the agenda was the World Cup bid. A statement in November on the FA's website stated that the ECN executives Peter Hargitay and Markus Siegler had "worked together for nearly six years at football's world governing body", where they were close aides of the Fifa president. ECN prepared a strategy paper which, according to senior football sources, has been adopted in full by the FA. But it has not been asked to carry through the work after the FA announced that external consultants would have to tender for further work.
That is likely to have come as a shock to Hargitay, whose previous influence at the FA was such that he was the architect of sending England to Trinidad & Tobago for next month's friendly. The FA clearly agreed that in assisting the island nation's federation with its centennial celebrations it would be able to curry favour with Jack Warner, the T&T federation's special adviser who is one of Fifa's 24 executive-committee members. When asked to comment on the issue yesterday Hargitay refused, saying only: "I ask you to speak to the FA."

Six UK-based World Cup players to face England.
T&T Guardian Reports.
Six England-based players who played at the Fifa 2006 World Cup in Germany are likely to be in the Soca Warriors squad for the anxiously awaited June 1 International friendly against England. The clash between T&T and England which will be played before a sold-out Hasely Crawford Stadium, Mucurapo Road crowd from 5.30 will be only the second meeting between the two countries, following their meeting at Germany.
Heading the list of expected call-ups by new T&T Colombian-born coach Francisco Maturana are Sunderland duo, Kenwyne Jones and Carlos Edwards, Stern John of Southampton and defender Dennis Lawrence of Swansea. The other two players expected to get the call for the England encounter and were on the Leo Beenhakker-coached T&T squad in Germany are goalkeeper Clayton Ince of League Two club, Walsall and striker Jason Scotland of Swansea.
In fact, Jones, Edwards, Lawrence and John, the all-time leading goalscorer for T&T with 64 goals in 93 appearance all played a part in the match against England in Nuremburg which T&T lost 2-0 via two late goals from Peter Crouch (85th) and Stevan Gerrard (88th) minutes.
The match which is dubbed “A Score To Settle” is all part of the T&T Football Federation centennial year celebrations and comes two weeks before T&T kicks off its Road to South Africa World Cup 2010 Concacaf Second Round Qualifying campaign at home to Bermuda.
It’s also being seen as a gesture by England as they seek to win the favour of Fifa vice-president and Concacaf boss Austin Jack Warner ahead of the Federation’s voting for the nation of choice for the 2014 World Cup.
Today’s training session will see a reduced quota of players present as the players from VIBE CT 105 W Connection, United Petrotrin and Joe Public have all been excused due to their club’s involvement in the T&T Pro League Courts Pro Bowl quarterfinal matches tonight at the Mannie Ramjohn Stadium, Marabella.
These players include; Marvin Phillips, Akeem Adams, Autis Whitley, Kern Cupid (W Connection), Kareem Smith, Makan Hislop, Keon Daniel, Jerol Forbes (United Petrotrin) and Keyeno Thomas of b-Mobile Joe Public.

fellas, i just had a thought..
alot of people wondering about the impact of wearing black if everyone is scattered in the crowd.
the suggestion has been made that those in black organize and sit together.
i was thinking for those who sitting together, does anyone still have this banner:

i think this would be a good symbol of a peaceful supporters' initiative.

Manchester City keeper Joe Hart and Everton defender Phil Jagielka are in England's squad for friendlies with the United States and Trinidad and Tobago.
England coach Fabio Capello has also called up Spurs midfielder Tom Huddlestone and Blackburn defender Stephen Warnock into his 31-man squad.
The squad face the USA at Wembley on 28 May before the away fixture with Trinidad and Tobago on 1 June.
Hart, 21, was on the bench as City lost 8-1 away to Middlesbrough on Sunday.
And his call-up completes a remarkable elevation after only spending one season as a first-team regular following his move to Eastlands from Shrewsbury in 2006.
Jagielka has had an outstanding first season at Everton following a £4m move from Sheffield United last summer, helping David Moyes' side to fifth place in the Premier League and a slot in next season's Uefa Cup.
Three confirmed absentees through injury are Everton defender Joleon Lescott, Manchester City's Micah Richards and West Ham's Matthew Upson.
Arsenal's Theo Walcott, named in Stuart Pearce's Under-21 squad for next Thursday's friendly with Wales in Wrexham, will then link up with the senior party.
West Ham's Dean Ashton will be among the other attacking players Capello will have at his disposal, with all but the nine men on Champions League duty due to report on 22 May.
England squad: David James (Portsmouth), Joe Hart (Man City), Chris Kirkland (Wigan), Wayne Bridge (Chelsea), Wes Brown (Man Utd), Ashley Cole (Chelsea), Rio Ferdinand (Man Utd), Phil Jagielka (Everton), Glen Johnson (Chelsea), John Terry (Chelsea), Stephen Warnock (Blackburn), David Wheater (Middlesbrough), Jonathan Woodgate (Middlesbrough), Gareth Barry (Aston Villa), David Beckham (LA Galaxy), David Bentley (Blackburn), Joe Cole (Chelsea), Stewart Downing (Middlesbrough), Owen Hargreaves (Man Utd), Tom Huddlestone (Tottenham), Steven Gerrard (Liverpool), Jermaine Jenas (Tottenham), Frank Lampard (Chelsea), Theo Walcott (Arsenal), Ashley Young (Aston Villa), Gabriel Agbonlahor (Aston Villa), Dean Ashton (West Ham), Peter Crouch (Liverpool), Jermain Defoe (Portsmouth), Michael Owen (Newcastle), Wayne Rooney (Man Utd).

Chelsea are hopeful John Terry and Didier Drogba will be fit for the Champions League final after both were injured in the 1-1 draw with Bolton.
Terry, 27, suffered a dislocated elbow in a collision with keeper Petr Cech and Bolton striker Kevin Davies but is optimistic of being fit.
"I should be fit for Moscow, fingers crossed," said Terry.
Drogba suffered a knee injury and boss Avram Grant said: "It doesn't look so good, we have to wait."
The injury to Terry happened after just 11 minutes and led to the skipper being stretchered from the pitch.
Terry said his elbow was "popped back in" while in the ambulance and he added: "I need three of four days rest but I should be fit for Moscow."
Chelsea boss Grant added: "He's strong enough to recover, but you never know.
"We need to wait and see how bad it is. We will know better in a couple of days.
"If it was down to his character he would be sure to play, but it's up to the medical team."
Chelsea face Manchester United in the Champions League final in Moscow on 21 May.

Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Hart has been included in Fabio Capello's England squad for the friendlies with USA and Trinidad and Tobago
The 21-year-old, who was on the bench this afternoon as City conceded eight goals at Middlesbrough, completes a remarkable elevation after only spending one season as a first-team regular following his move to Eastlands from Shrewsbury in 2006.
Tottenham midfielder Tom Huddlestone has also been picked for the first time, while defenders Phil Jagielka and David Wheater are both selected in the 31-man squad.
Three confirmed absentees through injury are Joleon Lescott, Micah Richards and Matthew Upson, with Capello no doubt keen to look at most of the remainder as he builds towards the start of England's World Cup qualifying campaign in September.
After choosing Steven Gerrard and Rio Ferdinand as his first two captains, Capello is yet to name his skipper for the USA game, although John Terry is available, as is Wayne Rooney, who has been touted as a future captain by the Italian.
A further interesting choice is former Liverpool defender Stephen Warnock, who has been in outstanding form for Blackburn this term.
Theo Walcott, named in Stuart Pearce's Under-21 squad for next Thursday's friendly with Wales in Wrexham, will then link up with the senior party.
West Ham's Dean Ashton will be among the other attacking players Capello will have at his disposal, with all but the nine men on Champions League duty due to report on May 22.
Full squad: David James (Portsmouth), Joe Hart (Man City), Chris Kirkland (Wigan), Wayne Bridge (Chelsea), Wes Brown (Man Utd), Ashley Cole (Chelsea), Rio Ferdinand (Man Utd), Phil Jagielka (Everton), Glen Johnson (Chelsea), John Terry (Chelsea), Stephen Warnock (Blackburn), David Wheater (Middlesbrough), Jonathan Woodgate (Tottenham), Gareth Barry (Aston Villa), David Beckham (LA Galaxy), David Bentley (Blackburn), Joe Cole (Chelsea), Stewart Downing (Middlesbrough), Owen Hargreaves (Man Utd), Tom Huddlestone (Tottenham), Steven Gerrard (Liverpool), Jermaine Jenas (Tottenham), Frank Lampard (Chelsea), Theo Walcott (Arsenal), Ashley Young (Aston Villa), Gabriel Agbonlahor (Aston Villa), Dean Ashton (West Ham), Peter Crouch (Liverpool), Jermain Defoe (Portsmouth), Michael Owen (Newcastle),

What kinda injury he really get, shoulder dislocate or elbow ?
The elbow is not a ball and socket joint, the shoulder and hips are ball and socket joints.
BTW...I feel that CC line to collect tickets will still be slow. When yuh think about it, is almost the same info they will want from yuh to collect the tickets as with the other lines, it should just be less people. But knowing Trinis, they will have some corruption in the line and people go jump in any line that shorter or moving faster.
-
+Friends now that we know who has been called - What is your starting eleven. Remember Latapy and Yorke are supposed to be in the mix.
The two up front looks like Scotland and Stern, now that Jones is injured.
Carlos Whitley Yorke and Latapy in the Middle. Lawrence in the Back and Ince in Goal. Cant say the other three.

i aint no doctor, but from what everybody told me when i did mine, elbow is not like yuh shoulder or hip or other joints..
they said it was a rigid joint and you are lucky if you dislocate it without breaking it.
that said, his probably slipped out slightly (partial dislocation) whereas mine shifted all the way out of socket.
i actually lost 15 mins of my life through that pain as i have no memory of when they were putting back in even though i was told after the fact i was fully conscious and screaming.

I don't like this "Score to Settle" thing they trying to market for the England game. When last we ever settle any score with any side ?
TTFF pushing this shit since USA beat we home in 1989. For years we trying to avenge that defeat and it just get played out. The Strike Squad does try they version of the thing now and even that get waterdown. What were the results over the years ? We never beat the US after that.
I can't even remember we settling any score with Jamaica after they knock we out of the qualifiers in the post Stike Squad days.
Now England beat we in the World Cup...world cup eh...and they think this friendly is a "Score to Settle". steupsss
Now when we meet up in SA2010, then that would be a score to settle...if England make it ::)

Nine-day prep for England
Ian Prescott, Express
Tuesday, May 13th 2008
Trinidad and Tobago will have a longer than average preparation of nine days-from May 23-for the friendly international against England on June 1 at the Hasely Crawford Stadium, Port of Spain.
England have named a strong squad, including the likes of Wayne Rooney, Frank Lampard, Michael Owen and David Beckham, for the match and later this week T&T will also announce a 25-man training squad, made up of locally-based players and overseas-based professionals.
Many of the likely foreign-based invitees, including Kenwyne Jones, Carlos Edwards, Jason Scotland and Stern John, are expected home soon after completing the season in England last weekend.
The England game, and a June 7 return clash with Jamaica in T&T, are being used as preparation for Trinidad and Tobago's opening match of the 2010 World Cup qualifying campaign on June 15 against Bermuda at the Hasely Crawford Stadium.
And assistant coach Anton Corneal said the build-up for the England encounter will be thorough.
"England is a top team in the world and the plan will have to be specific," Corneal stated. "I'm sure coach (Francisco Maturana) is going to put something practical in place so that we wouldn't just have to survive the game, but be able to compete. And that will help us in our preparation for the upcoming qualifying games."
Corneal added that the team may include some of the locally-based players who have appeared in recent internationals. He said those players are being weaned, first by playing against Caribbean teams and also the likes of El Salvador. And the ones with potential now need to be stepped up in class against better teams such as England and Jamaica.
"We will name the team in the next four days...at least the squad that is going to be training. Out of all the games we have been playing, we got a clear picture now of what players we think will mesh properly and which players are grasping what coach will like to do...coach Maturana. And we are now able to name a 24- or 25-member squad and they will start training on May 23 until the England game."

Trini's are incapable of chanting.... "TnT we want a goal" is a chant to them ::)
Dont expect any luck...we've been trying for years.... The only productive chant i've heard was The "I Am a Socawarrior" Chorus during our 3 world cup games

"Are you ready for the Euros?"
"Its gonna be a long summer!"

The atmosphere in our senior team games needs work....not really a Trini thing though, more of a unity thing... because in my day for intercol matches, chanting was a big part of crowd support... Funny how a school uniform brings people together eh....The more unified the feeling amongst the crowd, the more likely you are to get a chant afterall a chant is a symbol of collective support.....Unfortunately in T&T senior team football, the fans only unite when the stage is big and the bright lights are on-and that is not very often.

All we need is a good rythm section.

Crouch is ah buller man!

At the start of the B'dos match I was wondering if it was creepy for the players to look into the stands with such a quiet crowd...just watching (it was a whole different scenario in Bahrain betw our fans and theirs ). A rhythm section make more of a difference for us than reciting lines for a play...london bridge is falling down lol
In all seriousness...how many people it take sitting in one area to make an impact....might need a good maestro like one of dem nuts men....and some flyers
-
do we really want to annoy d english

To the tune of "Always look on the bright side of Life" by Monty Python
Some of your players are so bad,
They can really make you mad
Sometimes they make you swear and curse
When you're watching France on the telly
or forced to cheer Germany
This is all you got to tell yourself...
Always look on the Dwight side of life
(Whistle)
Always look on the Dwight side of life
(Whistle)
If your team seems jolly rotten
There's something you've forgotten
And thats enough to make you smile and sing
When you're down in the dumps
Don't be silly Chumps
Just remember that you have got Kenwyne
Always look on the Dwight side of life
(whistle)
Always look on the Dwight side of life
(whistle)
For another cup's a dream
And the euro won't be seen
But that don't mean you can't beat everyone
Import a bunch of Africans,
Frenchies and Iberians
And when Champions League comes enjoy the fun
So always look outside of Ingerland
(whistle)
If you want to avoid cheering on Poland
(whistle)
Mourinho understood it
SAF's gone and do'd it
Wenger took the practice to an art
Mclaren tried and failed.
Eriksson lost the trail
Fabio, what makes you think
that it will not be the same (slow)
Always look outside of Ingerland
Always look outside of Ingerland

nice very nice

To Gerrard:
The baby's not yours..The baby's not yours

Anyone who paying via Credit Card get a call yet?
I got a call back yesterday afternoon from the TTFF Accounts Department about 3:30 pm. They asked me to verify the code given to me when I ordered the ticket. Once verified, I gave them my CC details and the person informed me that I can collect my tickets on the 18th May where I would have to give them the code again in order to get the tickets.
I checked my credit card account a couple hours afterwards and it was charged for the amount of ticket I ordered.
So everything seems set. Lets hope all goes smoothly on collection day.
Hey, did they take out an extra charge when you bought the ticket??? I bought 4 and dey say i have to pay $1260. I just want to make sure dey not BSsing me.
Ah hope it goes smooth on Sunday. What will ya'll do if they charge yuh credit card and when yuh go to collect yuh tickets on Sunday dey say yuh confirmation # wrong an yuh doh get any tickets? I fraid dis TTFF yes.
I will only breathe a sigh of relief when ah get mih tickets in mih hand.

Forumites,
On the morning show with Blaze and JW they were discussing the match and how people would wear ManU and England jersey and not White TT jerseys.
They encouraged everyone to come out in TT jerseys and encouraged everyone to wear white.
I took the opportunity to text in and say we wearing black and JW mentioned it in passing.
But the news I really would like to share is that on May 21st....Francis Fashions will have the new TT kit available for sale.
Giving alyuh the heads up!

-
This is the real issue.
thing will never change if people afraid to stand up and be counted.
Just the other day big upraw about de price ah food. den what.
PPL say de eh have enough money but de have enough for de game and any other fete that might be on dat night. It amazes me the things I see and hear ::)
when I was a choir instuctor at good old Marabella Senior I always told the studends we walk out there as many but sing with One Voice
You should all speak with one voice if you wnt to be heard.
-
Yeah Touches..I hear them laugh at we idea on the Morning Show after u text it in. But I still going strong. If the massives wearing white for real, it will help us be able to stand out more anyways, even if it's just a few.
Depending on the support, I could organise some media coverage to let them know what it was about and maybe garner more support for the JA game the following weekend.

I can't see any of the images of the T-shirts posted until I go home this evening but I had thought of sponsoring a few Yorke T-shirts.....OK..OK.....is ordinary round neck juzzys...is what ah could afford ;D ....I got the prices and everything....
I also thought we could put a message to put on it but that will take a little more doing and co-ordination...anybody willing to help wid that PM mih nah?
As for JW and dem on Red 96.7 doh study dem, they not "enlightened"....that's why we who know better have to make ourselves be heard/seen....
-

Hit meh a pm if anyting

-

Check the terms and conditions of attendance on the TTFF website and at the stadium.
Its your democratic right to take part in a peaceful protest providing it causes no danger, does not cause civil unrest and is not offensive or abusive.
they normally have the generic, 'management reserves the right to refuse admission' and as for peaceful protest, i'll have to introduce to some individuals from the guard and emergency branch with their pet 'galils' who don't know what the word protest means.
Anyway, TTFF/ stadium authorities et al have much better things to do that stop ppl wearing a certain colour t shirt from getting into the stadium ! And to be honest, if by some miracle they say, ' yea hard luck, ' do, SO WHAT!?!?
If all yuh really want to go in that stadium that bad after that, then u'll have no testicular fortitude whatsoever and we are really a country of jokers
I would have liked to be home, let them stop me, i'll be holding my own press conference after the game with BBC world Service, Five Live Sport, tempo 105, CNC3, TV6....

steups
the longer this thread goings on and I see how disunited we are, taking into consideration we are supposed to be the 'die hard' football , the more disenchanted I get for the state of our game; it's almost as if we enjoy getting bobolize!
this reminding me of years back when a certain st. anns night establishment was exposed for its discriminatory tendencies...golliwog night was still ram pack....men argument?....well that's the spot where the action is....where else we go go and then penned up like cattle in the sweaty club!
I really convince we like to take Jam in TnT and not just at carnival time

i'm going to start up a facebook group later.
Give me some notes in point form that will say what's the motive behind the wearing black so i eh have to go through that thinking it out later when i get home.
*Frustration with the administration of our football
* The blacklist
* Unwillingness of the TTFF to work with FPATT
Just mih 2 pennies...

Fella you juss being ah jackass now... which is somewhat surprising, but maybe that's just your true personality coming to the fore.
Throughout the entire thread I have argued vociferously in favor of people wearing black in the stadium. I simply threw in the caveat for folks to be careful in case Jack was feeling extra vindictive on that day...I put nothing beyond the man.
I really don't know what "seeds of discontent" you're talking about but good luck with your new found crusade.

Bakes like he have a guilty conscience but it was really Quagmire who bring it up first.
But like I said earlier and Fl! emphasize. If you get stopped because of your shirt...that is a HUGE deal. I telling you, you will become rich.
I will sue the stadium management, the security company, the TTFF, the TTFA, the 2010 S. Africa LOC, the TTFF Centennial Celebrations organising committee, Jack Warner personally (because I will find a way to prove that this attack on his person is the only motive behind which I would get banned), the government (if any police or army intervene when i start to get on bad for my civil rights).
And then I will serialise it to BBC and Sky...
So like I said, I wearing black and I WISH they try and stop me.

How this sounding for the group?
Ah giving allyuh till midnight to butcher it...
Subsequent to their excellent performance at the 2006 World Cup that made us all so proud, our beloved Soca Warriors have been put through an almighty struggle by the TTFF.
Having been promised a 50% share of all revenues accrued from the tournament, our warriors were presented with a mere $5000TT per player for their efforts.
It has since been revealed that the TTFF pocketed $173M TT in revenue from the World Cup leading to an on-going bonus dispute between the TTFF and the players.
The culmination of this was the imposing of a blacklist on our Soca Warriors, barring them from representing us and retarding the progress of Trinidad & Tobago football. Even though the TTFF has since publicly ended the blacklist, most of the Soca Warriors engaged in the legal dispute are still being marginalized and victimized by the federation. This can only be detrimental towards our efforts to qualify for the 2010 World Cup.
Now is your chance as a fan of the beloved Soca Warriors to show your support.
June 1st, 2008. Trinidad & Tobago versus England.
Wear black to show your disapproval of the TTFF administration and your support for the blacklisted Warriors!
-
I'm not sure if its worth it to go into the details about the dispute.
For one, its sub judice, thogh technically, arbitration might not be considered "court".
Secondly, once you get into the details you upening yourself to a certain amount of criticism that is best be avoided (let the players lawyers handle that)
Thirdly, for me, this isn't simply about the blacklist, exblacklist, brownlist.
This thing going on long time now, and it pass from Burnt Boots to the overselling of the Stadium, to them sending the PFL all Stars to play Jamaica and blaze we tail and having FIFA card it as an official match with it big big on the internet for everybody to see it, the lack of transparency, the financial mismanagement, the impersonation of a Haitian football official by one of Jack's cronies, the Simpaul Saga, the U17 World Cup catering and accomodation debacle, the phantom friendlies, (some might say, the Wim episode), and the blacklist..
Some would say is all Jack fault. Maybe. But it have plenty men who stand up and let him continue to do it. I don't believe JAck is evil incarnate, in all seriousness, and that with enough checks and balances, he could really have done/do good for the sport in this country without doing all the bad.
At the end of the day, is all about the way we administer the sport in this country. The Caudillo scene have to done. Basically we are all fed up of a "third world administration" of the sport we all love, in a country that claims to be moving towards another status.
I know you can't put all that on a tee shirt or on a facebook invitation. And the anti-blacklist stance might be the easy way to galvanise support. But is to get the sense across to the non enlightened that is not because we get to two world cup in two years that all is well. They need to realise that there's something seriously rotten in the Kingdom of the Trinidad and Tobago Football, and that it will only get worse unless someone does something to MAKE the TTFF take care of it.

midnight yuh have till midnight..
Yeah well you know what they say about those who can ...and those who can't. It kind of late for me to find a way to synthesize all that but I have another idea.
June 1st, 2008. Trinidad & Tobago versus England. Not only does the vendetta against the Soca Warriors continue, but in a coincidence of symbolism, while the adversary of the day sports red - for the benefit of the English team's sponsors - Trinidad and Tobago will be playing at home in its white "away" kit. This magnanimous display of football diplomacy is afforded to our opponents while the TTFF villifies our heros and does everything in its power to ensure that they do not receive their due.
For what is promising to be a sold out event, the TTFF is encouraging patrons to don white. On this day, our crimson clad Soca Warriors will become the enemy and we will be enlisted to whitewash their legacy, serving unwarily as the TTFF's rubber stamp in the process.
On June 1st 2008, wear black to show your disapproval of the TTFF administration and your support for the blacklisted Warriors!

How is this for a final draft..
Subsequent to their excellent performance at the 2006 World Cup that made us all so proud, our beloved Soca Warriors have been put through an almighty struggle by the TTFF.
First they renegued on their promises for the players' share of revenues.
Then they grossly misrepresented the income.
The result was an on-going bonus dispute between the TTFF and the players, culminating in a blacklist on our Soca Warriors, barring them from representing us and retarding the progress of Trinidad & Tobago football.
Even though the TTFF has since publicly ended the blacklist, most of the Soca Warriors engaged in the legal dispute are still being sidelined and victimized by the federation. This can only be detrimental towards our efforts to qualify for the 2010 World Cup.

First of all let us not kid ourselves.
The T&T team that takes the pitch at the Hasely Crawford stadium will be vastly overmatched in every position on the pitch with the single exception of Kenwyne Jones.
The gulf in quality player for player is that big.
But I believe we can match them if the right tactics are employed.
England are coming to the restaurant with a new chef but they still cooking with the same basic ingredients. Their play is still unimaginative and their players barring a few exceptions are predictable. They rarely ever try to take on players; you won't see individual brilliance being expressed; they wont confuffle the opposition. They all operate within their limitations.
The major threats from England are from crosses with Beckham/Bentley/Joe Cole who provide quality aerial service and from being able to spring quick counter attacks. Also on the wings, pacy, skillful players like Young, Walcott, Agbonlahor could be a big danger as we saw in the World Cup.
IMO, to match them, I think we have to play a deep and discipline back four that would negate their ability to get opportunities on the counter attack. We have to let them come into our half and keep men behind the ball and not get caught out of position like we did in Germany. We have to invite them to try to work for openings against our defense as they lack creativity. The central midfielders have to close down Lampard and Gerrard from shooting from outside.
Attacking-wise we need to play to our strengths. Get the ball quickly to Kenwyne and stern and let the hold up the play and get our midfield coming into it. Also we need good deliveries from Carlos and Daniel on the wings. On the set pieces, if we have Tallest, Stern and Kenwyne in the box we could outmatch them for height and nick something if the delivery is good.
We not beating them, but I think we could give a respectable performance if the right tactics are employed.
-
omar...ya plan sounding like ya tinking of damage control from the get go!???
is a friendly, nothing to lose..
i eh sayin we could run them and pass all around them...thas jus being ignorant and naiive at the same tiem
but to sit back and jus wait...
Lampard and Gerrard to have shooting praCTICE? lampard was off in WC...but we know he still deadly from outside...as well as Gerrard..he eh test Shaka as much as he should have in that WC game...
i eh tink we should do that sit back and wait story...it go be like backs and forwards whole game...and then long ball to kenwyne and stern.
the SAME thing that does kill both of dem strikers...ya cah run shuttles whole game
-
what u sayin there reminding of the game i see at the end of the season.
Boro vs Sunderland..
that was one of the ugliest games i see and sunderland was jus boom kicking d ball and hopin kenwyne save dem
d man have real fight...but to ask him to do that against england defense....nah..madness
man like Rio ferdinand who looking like one of the most in form stoppers this yr too eh
and that hard for me to say being a Chelsea fan...
but d man on point

I not familair with them but if somebody here is we can contact them to print a black option. I sure it will sell quicker than the white.

well the fact that they claim to be the 'official t shirt' leads me to presume that they've paid some money for those rights....most prob to the TTFF, so i find it unlikely that they would print black, when the TTFF has publicly stated that fans should wear white

Maybe, I take "official" with a grain of salt. We had at least a dozen "official" songs for the World Cup, too.
gapers is a poster on here - I'm sure they'll let us know the deal.

Omar breds let it just play out on the field nah.
Yuh saying the English ent have no creativity, dont take on players, no individual brilliance, operate within limitations.
Breds that is against men who as good or better than them.
We cyar let them come in our half ATALL. it ent have no sit back and let them open us up because they can knock the ball. They all can light up Ince with some 30 yard bullet.
Ince will be we saviour in this game. He have to be on point.
England can only dangerous if they have the ball. So we have to keep possession and play basic. either that or put 9 men behind the ball and boom kick it for Kenwyne and Stern to do it alone.
Alyuh men ent realise it have no tacklers or Blade men on this TT team. No me mum, avery, cyd. The physical presence is lacking. All we have as a work horse is a lame Carlos edwards and a bad mind whitley who go have they work cut out for them.
As Big Mag say, that Germany team was special....all dem fellas was seasoned pros and put in some hard shift...this is a different grap we dealing with.
Let us not predict no score...let us just play cautious, take our chances when it comes and play with blood in our shoes. We will keep it respectable.

Omar,
No team should play a game giving their opposition soooooo much respect. Ah know that England ON PAPER are stronger. But T&T already tend to lack confidence in their abilities we should treat this as a friendly to play wisely but not sooooo cautious that they eh bring their FIGHT. T & T needs a bit of arrogance in their attitude if you ask me. Ask Ato Boldon, ask Kenwyne, ask Yorke who all at one point expressed soooo much confidence that either they themselves or reporters described them as a bit arrogant. . .
-
Allyuh need to invite more ppl. It have about 500 ppl who have not responded to the invite and I pretty sure over 300 is from my list.

Yeah baby Tees are available....
As for the message, I wanted to put something a little more direct on them than what Bakes has...so far I've come up with a design/idea similar to what the Keith Noel committee did with their T-shirts for their march....start the message in front and finish it at the back...
For example, the front could say....MAKE A STAND...
OR
STAND UP...
OR
I STAND...
and continued on the back....
For etc. etc.
I've thought of statements like
"Better footballing administration"
"Injustice in football"
......statements along those lines...
However, I would like to put something really catchyon the back......but ah eh good at dem thing so much....so forumites, tell mih what all yuh could come up wid by Monday 19th, 6 pm EST....who knows ah might have ah prize fuh yuh... ;) :)

English Debate: England's Forgotten Men: Part 4.
Goal.Com Oliver Petersen looks at England's nearly-men at left-back...
This week, Fabio Capello selected a 31-man England squad for two England friendlies a fortnight away. The Three Lions take on USA and Trinidad and Tobago on May 28 and June 1, with players looking to impress, prior to their summer break.
Capello has spoken of his desire to have everyone available who doesn’t have a valid excuse, but who didn’t make the squad? Which players, either through self imposed international retirement, injury, or otherwise, were not selected for the summer training camp?
This multipart series has already covered goalkeepers, right backs and centre backs, and now left backs not included by Capello are the issue at hand. Is there a Roberto Carlos waiting in the wings?
Analysis: Ashley Cole - love him or loathe him - is England’s top number three, with Wayne Bridge and the versatile goalscoring defender Joleon Lescott the men to cover him from within the squad. Outside of that triumvirate, there are a handful of England wannabees, but not a great deal of experienced strength and depth.
Name, Club, Age, Height, Birthplace, other position (if any), 2007/08 appearances, reason for not being selected.
Close to the squad:
Nicky Shorey, Reading, 27, 5 ft 9 ins, Romford, London, 38, a defender with a wizardry left foot, equally adept at defending as he is going forward. If he played for a top ten club he’d be in the squad already. A move to a club such as West Ham would help his cause. He is a set-piece architect, good dribble, tackler and has a shot to keep goalkeepers on their toes.
Future possibles
Leighton Baines, Everton, 23, 5 ft 7 ins, Liverpool, Merseyside, 29, hasn’t managed to force his way past Lescott and Nuno Valente at club level. Will need to do that, or move again, if he wants to make the next step up. Has the potential, but it’s been a sideways year for him, after his move from Wigan.
David Murphy, Birmingham, 24, 6 ft 1 ins, Hartlepool, County Durham, 32, has settled well into the Premier League after his January move from Hibernian. Has potency in his left foot and is one of the future.
Andrew Taylor, Middlesbrough, 21, 5 ft 10 ins, Hartlepool, County Durham, 21, has been rotating the left back position with Emmanuel Pogatetz and Jonathan Grounds at Middlesbrough, but has displayed enough promise to show a decent career lies ahead of him.
Jamie O’Hara, Tottenham, 21, 5 ft 11 ins, Dartford, Kent, centre midfield, 40, originally a midfielder when he broke through into the first team, but many feel his future lies in the fullback role. Could advance at either position due to his all round game, and multitude of attributes.
Far from the squad
Michael Ball, Man City, 28, 5 ft 10 ins, Liverpool, Merseyside, centre back, left midfield, 35, many feel he’s been lucky to be a regular at City, so further international recognition seems no more than a dream. He’s unlikely to add to his solitary cap, won seven years ago. Yet another one cap wonder.
Paul Konchesky, Fulham, 26, 5 ft 9 ins, Barking, London, centre back, left midfield, 37, was far closer to the England squad a few years ago. His first season at Fulham, since moving from West Ham, didn’t set the world alight.
Jlloyd Samuel, Bolton, 27, 5 ft 11 ins, San Fernando, Trinidad and Tobago, 25, after early career promise, his form has dipped in the last couple of years. The talent is still there, but is the desire?
Matthew Taylor, Bolton, 26, 5 ft 10 ins, Abingdon, Oxfordshire, winger, 34, has been used in a more advanced role in recent times, mainly due to his crossing ability and goal threat from long range. A fairly surprising mid season move north for the versatile lefty hasn’t worked out too badly, but more consistency would be needed for an England call-up.

What's the latest on the ticket situation in T&T? like things running smooth no complaints,everybody getting the amount of tickets they asked for?or is it the same old same old,could we get some feedbacks on this i'm sure some people in line already.
-
well i going for my tickets now
go update when i reach back
-
Big Mag and I reach dere at 8:40 and line up in de line we were supposed to...at 9am ticket collection started...i got my tickets at 9:03...
very well done
-
jus got word from my cousin that my tickets were picked up without hassle....
so forumites see yuh in de stadium come June 1st!
-
Me and nobody's Angel collected out tickets @ 9:09 am. No real worries.
-
Yeah my sister picked mine up without any hassles.
-
was short and painless...... men outside the gates asking if u have extra tickets to sell
-
Midlady picked them up this am. Said she waited 2h in (cash on delivery, online order) line, but i believe she get there at 9 or slightly after. Her line for some odd reason only had one clerk, as opposed to some of the others with 3 or 4 ppl, which made things slow down. However she aid that the cash on delivery line was moving smoother than the credit card lines when she was there.
They gave her some shaft about not having the print out, but like she just bat she eyes and everything finish well. Ah next man behind in de line start to cuss and carry on when they tell him the same BS - because they tell him all he needed to do was walk with he ID, and dat is what he did, but all in all it sounded smooth. Must say I'm impressed, even if 1 day is a really narrow window.
-
Jus leave around 1 and reach back around 2. Painless. Surprisingly.
-

Boy, ah was able to collect my tickets without any problems and all that i ordered. Ah was real sweating before i went hoping for the best. Everything looked real organised when i went. Big up TTFF for that.
The tickets in the form of a card.
Well the only thing to worry about now is that the game kicks off on June 1st with the team and players we want to see and that everything goes well without violence and chaos. ah hope everybody get thru with dem tickets too.
-
well........................Good Job TTFF
-
Paying with CC ahead of time was a mistake.
No extra convenience...just cost more for no reason. U cud actually pay with CC right there without the "processing fee"
It had no lines and had decent parking. They should have put the no parking signs along the side road like they did for the B'dos match.
I eh sure but I think they had the booth numbering back to front from the map they circulated...distance wasn't nutten though.
-
well........................Good Job TTFF
Well i was waiting to hear that from somebody,for once the TTFF did a good job and i think it should be mentioned because the worst was expected.
Alright phase one went alright,now lets see what game day will be like remember we still have to get inside the stadium and don't know the composition of the starting team,isn't Football the best game in the world,excitment from start to finish.
On top of all that nobody going to worry about how much Jack make until everything over,this is what's good about that man.
-
I eh know Coops I think it too early to give them high marks.
On the whole is a big improvement though.
-

Ya ever hear of TicketMasters
dem have "charging extra fees" down to a science oui
-
Lets give the TTFF a round of :applause: :applause:
They getting their act in order.
I saw the traffic so I parked up on the main road by SUCKYs bar. Order a sours and walked into the COE.
A green Hyundai was selling some t-shirt 2 for 100. My partner went in the credit card line I went in the telephone line. There were 3 people in front of me. I gave them the number they checked my id and they brought out my tickets in a brown envelope. The TTFF provided you with a receipt and they asked me to check the contents of the envelope to make sure everything was in order.
A heavy police presence was in each tent. Scalpers on the outside buying up extras for $50-100 more and everybody going tru easy.
Only one fella get a stiff buff and embarrassment from he father infront the whole line of people. The fella big and tall in he late teens early 20's. He reach the desk give he name and code and say 3 tickets. The woman say no no, you ordered 2.
He say miss, you telling me I lying. For the record I ordered three. The woman say son...you ordered 2..the spreadsheet says 2, and at the end of the phone conversation we tell you your total and confirm the amount....Watch meh the man father get so vex...You see dis $h!t when you have to do something is best yuh do it yuhself. Is 3 tickets one for me, you and yuh sister....I feel you go give yuh sister the next ticket and you stay home for yuh stupidness.. I tell you order 3.
:rotfl: :rotfl:I ent play I laugh.... the man father nearly hit him a bell ringers right there. The whole line start to laugh at the youthman.
However the lady at the table informed him to call the FANS number and find out when the next batch of loose/unclaimed ticketes go on sale and he might have a chance ther.
See you at the game!!!
-
Well don TTFF for outsourcing the Ticketing.

First of all let us not kid ourselves.
The T&T team that takes the pitch at the Hasely Crawford stadium will be vastly overmatched in every position on the pitch with the single exception of Kenwyne Jones.
The gulf in quality player for player is that big.
But I believe we can match them if the right tactics are employed.
England are coming to the restaurant with a new chef but they still cooking with the same basic ingredients. Their play is still unimaginative and their players barring a few exceptions are predictable. They rarely ever try to take on players; you won't see individual brilliance being expressed; they wont confuffle the opposition. They all operate within their limitations.
The major threats from England are from crosses with Beckham/Bentley/Joe Cole who provide quality aerial service and from being able to spring quick counter attacks. Also on the wings, pacy, skillful players like Young, Walcott, Agbonlahor could be a big danger as we saw in the World Cup.
IMO, to match them, I think we have to play a deep and discipline back four that would negate their ability to get opportunities on the counter attack. We have to let them come into our half and keep men behind the ball and not get caught out of position like we did in Germany. We have to invite them to try to work for openings against our defense as they lack creativity. The central midfielders have to close down Lampard and Gerrard from shooting from outside.
Attacking-wise we need to play to our strengths. Get the ball quickly to Kenwyne and stern and let the hold up the play and get our midfield coming into it. Also we need good deliveries from Carlos and Daniel on the wings. On the set pieces, if we have Tallest, Stern and Kenwyne in the box we could outmatch them for height and nick something if the delivery is good.
We not beating them, but I think we could give a respectable performance if the right tactics are employed.
Omar i think the objective of this game should not be mainly for a victory, but for the precious experience , especially for the youngsters.
whether we over come them or we're vanquished,we need a top game against a top contender,it could only do us a world of good, and it don't get much higher than England.
let us be happy for the what we've got, BC i remember last year we was less than optimistic, we had scottie , carlos , tallest, bleeder and ince. now we have KJ, stren, and whitley in addition. lets thank JAH for small mercies. positive.

Ancil Farrier Called Up To National Team Camp For Upcoming Friendly With England

(http://www.southernctowls.com/images/2008/5/19/rp_primary_farrier.jpg)
NEW HAVEN, Conn. - Junior defender Ancil Farrier (Los Bajos, Trinidad) of the Southern Connecticut State University men’s soccer team has been called up to the Trinidad and Tobago National Team Camp in preparation for its June 1 friendly against England.
Previously, Farrier earned his first international cap on May 11, as he helped his native Trinidad and Tobago to a 3-0 win over Barbados in an international friendly held at Marvin Lee Stadium.
Farrier started and played all 90 minutes in the backline for the Soca Warriors as part of a defensive unit which held the Barbados squad off the scoreboard for the game’s entirety.

Brownsugar? Bake n Shark? We getting baby-t's in the designs we have in mind?
Yeah baby Tees are available....
As for the message, I wanted to put something a little more direct on them than what Bakes has...so far I've come up with a design/idea similar to what the Keith Noel committee did with their T-shirts for their march....start the message in front and finish it at the back...
For example, the front could say....MAKE A STAND...
OR
STAND UP...
OR
I STAND...
and continued on the back....
For etc. etc.
I've thought of statements like
"Better footballing administration"
"Injustice in football"
......statements along those lines...
However, I would like to put something really catchyon the back......but ah eh good at dem thing so much....so forumites, tell mih what all yuh could come up wid by Monday 19th, 6 pm EST....who knows ah might have ah prize fuh yuh... ;) :)
Also, as for the actual T-shirts I would get back to you all with more details on Monday...
How about FIGHT THE JACK LIST and put SocaWarriors/Warrior Nation on the back?
It has to be short and sweet.

According to the News headlines on CNC 3 - a contreversy is brewing over use of the Stadium for the England game!!!...
STAY TUNED...details coming up later in de broadcast....
-
CNC3 sports report:
Brewing dispute
Ministry: rental agreement is standard - $150,000 + VAT or 10% of gross gate receipts whatever is greater.
TTFF: different from agreements they have had in the past to use HCS.
Confirmed: T&T will wear the new white kit for June 1 against England
reported on arbitration: JW had not seen the ruling in it's entirety -"but what I have read is it is merely a preliminary decision" "I am not unduly worried at this time"
Hislop had not seen the ruling and did not comment to CNC3
Scotland: feels he deserves a spot based on his current form and 29 goals. Determined to be selected.

-
Jack say de game was organised for the people of T&T....but like he think we forget it was really to appease de English FA after he mouth get him in trouble last year..steups.
He say de Minister neva contact him directly in 6 months....de minister say that is not true....when dey call de TTFF to a meeting dey ask what de meeting about and de TTFF say de PS in Min of Sports never get back to them.
Jack say the books for 2006 have been audited by KPMG...dey just eh send dem to Min of Sport...Gary ask him to send dem....
Gary just keep saying "Accountability and Transperancy".....Jack say dat is just terms de Gov't using to bandy about and doh mean much...
Jack say de matter going to court....one time he say Min of Sport eh have to deal with he (Jack) he is not de TTFF when Gary call him out on it....mih eh even know what he answer was.....anywho....
Jackula, cry me a river.....yuh see how shaft does feel..... :devil:

After all he could get the Oval for free!

He pushing that shit tooooo far!
Let England go home den...and let TTFF (ah mean Jack - is he dat say so) refund the money back to

I am NOT surprised
1) Football Jackula wants money/concessions from the Government
2)Warner as the co-leader of the UNC WILL politicise this to get what he wants
Therefore you have ONE person taking on the Role of two distinctly different people to get what he wants.
Lord help the National Treasury if ever UNC gets back into power.

Ground tickets cah even buy yuh the team kit lol

Dey tellin peeps who on d waitin list 2 come fri 2 pay dat sound like a cancel loud steupsssssssss

Yuh is ah true patriot and yuh doh play de arse..run yuh ministry as all other ministries should be run.
f**k TTFF, f**k Jack and f**k England
Ah guess yuh refering to me. well lets deal with what's really important in a developing nation before yuh shower all that false praise on this rookie for PM who stood up for a lesser cause.
lets see , education of which we're lacking imencly , national security yet another deficiency in our nations diet, inflation, and to me that the most important area in which we're evidently lacking, police and political corruption, unemployment even though there's been an increase within the last 2 yrs , it's still insuficient, inadiquate health care system, Crime.
now i know that's not hunt's responsibility , but the things that really need tending too is left adrift, and while the nation is in turmiol and ppl are being ravaged all around, he's looking to save a couple of bucks on the stadium .
meanwhile ignoring the bigger picture, letting the game play will generate much more revenue for the country and the public rather than going without it.
now tell me if standing up to JW take precedence over the more important issues which i outlined.
IMO he's ah f@ckin joke, he waited till every thing was in full motion to bring up this crap about new rental agreement and protocolls. this should've been on the table from the initial meeting.
yes warner is ah crook , and yes he's been taking advatage of the footballers for yrs,but the fact remains that the ppl of T&T will have to suffer yet again for the politicians row.
and the minister should've made this aboundantly clear from the get go, why wait until the wheel was in full motion. to me that was malicious and jokey. there are no winners involved in this senario, and a good statsman always choose winning as an option rather than losing.
-
Fella I and you always cool eh, but yuh talking plenty shit of the highest grade!
Hunt eh trying to save money...he trying to bring order into the Sports Ministry. Not becasue things run free all de time means that is how it should continue.
Fees must be paid and if indeed on a sliding scale den I say he DAMN RIGHT!
He may be a rookie minister, but he brings excellent management skills to the job, something lacking in ALL OTHER MINITRIES!
He is calling for accountability and transparency...yet you seem to have trouble with that.
f**k de game!
How is that game bringing revenue into the country to speak of?
Steups...yuh really mean revenue into Warner's pocket ent?
We doh need ah few thousand foreigners for a few days to help T&T, what will help the country is accountability and transparency and DOING THE RIGHT THINGS!
That is something allyuh trinis like to sacrifice for entertainment...let de game play, leh we play we mas, jump and wave and misbehave..f**k dat shit!
It is high time T&T comes to order, we is ah damn big republic yet we have man auditing books in secret and cyar show de right spreadsheet for years!
f**k that shit!
Standing up to Jack Warner is a start! He at least is doin g what is right for HIS Ministry, he eh in charge ah crime and education or peewah selling! So he is doing EXACTKLY what you want, yet for the sake of a football game yuh willing to sell out yuh Nation...no wonder we have so much crime and decadence and turmoil in we schools!
Yuh acknowledge de tings yuh feel important is NOT Hunt's responsibility, yet readily find fault when he attends dutifuly to things UNDER HIS PURVIEW!
f**k that shit!
Let Jack have Jamaica play England...leh he haul he stink c**t...I standing with Gary Hunt!
How is that for a tee shirt slogan!
“The ministry recognises that this event is commercial in nature and as such, it is incumbent upon us to seek and protect the rights and intellectual property of Trinidad and Tobago,” he said.
“In the past, rental of the stadium has been done in an ad hoc manner. The policy seeks to standardise rental agreements and professionalise the way the ministry conducts business.”
Hunt announced that the ministry would charge the TTFF a rental of $150,000 for use of the stadium, instead of the ten per cent gate receipts which would have brought in $900,000.
He asked the TTFF to utilise the profits from this match to invest them into development programmes to assist people in areas such as Toco, Point Fortin, Tabaquite and Sangre Grande.
Hunt said his ministry was prepared to reconsider the terms of the draft lease agreement.
“We are now aware of contractual arrangements with the English FA...We are willing to listen to it,” he said.
“We are also willing to look at the prohibition of alcohol and tobacco advertising for this game. We recognise that it is not safe to advertise these products. We have taken a stance to protect the development of the youth of this country.”

Allyuh bemaoning the lack of professionalism in Trin idad...now allyuh getting it in allyuh pweffen allyuh bawling like babies with ah diaper load ah shit!
-
God bless Gary Hunt! We need many more like him and TT will begin to operate like responsible nation. As much as I was dying to see this game I will give up this game, the World cup 2010 if it means some order, transparency and accountability to the TTFF. Trinidadians are idiots for one game. Forget the football game and take some responsibility and hold people, even JW, to accountability.
-
TT i think is you who missing the point. all i'm saying is be clear on yuh demands from the get go, dont wait till 11 o clock after the meal done cook and eat to say yuh want somthing new.
he could've saved the public all this agony if he made that abundantly clear from the start, instead of bringing new demands when tickets are already sold.
this aint no party thing with me boss, i more die hard than you when it come to sacrifice, me ain't care bout no game nah dread, i just feel that the true fans should not suffer so much under these clown , both the fedration and the ministry of sports.
this is not about football, rather political strife, which to me is far more evil than religion. those two guys will not work it out IMO. this go be another stale mate, based on politics and has nothing to do with football.
i don't blame JW for this, BC them men who made agreements with jack should know by now that you must take the proper steps by legal ducumentation if dealing with a man clearly known for his unethical behavior. jack will beat him in court. yuh wanna bet.
-
Fella like yuh eh read de stipulations or what?
Is x amount or 10% of the gate whichever is greater..so 150,00 is ah BIG break....is dat or 900,000
Is Jack and dem who expect tuh get away with ting.
So its there in writing.....JAck jes eh taking dat serious, as he get away with it before, well not anymore de f**ker meet he match and he match running he Ministry like it should be run!
f**k that shit!
Leh warner haul he c**t
I standing with Gary Hunt!
-
just deserts............talking bou he have Bekkenbauer and Platini ah tink coming.....who cares....dem fellas football house in order and dey payers does get treated with respect........after he rob dem fellas and trying to continue it he nasty ways somebody finally holding him to task........cancel d game.........ah hope as cocky as Hunte appeared tonight that he have an immaculate plan that wil hopefully revamp TTFF.......plus the relationship that FPATT have fostered wit the Ministry........ah like how dis going..........ah guess dis wouldnt be a good time fuh eh to contact TTFF about tickets fuh dat June 22 game in bermuda :rotfl:
-
Excellent time Agent d timing cyah b betta. Y is it dat when somebody appear confident peeps does say cocky.
-
Jack getting it from all sides: The government, the players and the fans (if we wear black).
Yet ppl stil trying to fight down everything becuase" it not going to make a difference." and saying how Hunt is *unt, wearing black doh make a difference and the players greedy.
I just doh understand it. Thank goodness I was born after slavery was abolished otherwise I woulda never be free cause when the revolution start, half of allyuh woulda run and warn d massa.
-
ah wonder how much ppl going to be in black for de game? I am sorry but it eh looking good, ppl coming up with all kinda excuses, oh how it go look, everybody in white and I in black...steups...if it have a 100 ppl in black ah say we lucky oui...where is the backbone ppl...where? ???
Big Up!
-
What he really saying is doh count the 40 million...because
Europe own their rights....and he is yet to sell to the Caribbean and the Americas!
Yeah right!
Question. Where did the BBC get these rights to give europe etc from? Cause i doh think somebody could come into another country and jus broadcast something and make profits off of it just like that. Is this some kinda international entitlement that the BBC has? Or is there more to is?
De man say he give it away as a "condition precedent" to them agreeing to coming here for the match.
Lawd.
Somewhere there's a small band of schupid Trinis actually believing dat dotishness. I'm starting to think that half of them are resident here on this forum too. Man calling Hunt ah C@nt and all kinda dotishness all because he trying to safeguard de interest of public property. People like they cyah read...talking about new terms and what not. It was always $3,000 or 10%, whichever was greater. So tell me...if Jack and dem sell tix totalling $9m... 10% of that is $900,000. Hunt say they go take $150k instead...Jack bawling like ah mad fowl and these fools following like he brood ah chickens after him.
How much longer de public of TnT should continue fattening Jack pocket?? Yet Hunt is de bad guy. Amazing.
Gotta love my people.

Please TT brother no need to argue, my point is, this guy and jack is ah marriage made in hell, and hell at the expense of the fans. if this was in england france or germany things would not have taken such a sour turn,
BC no matter how much i despise those countries, they definitely have pride and protocol. i not blaming one and exonerating the other, they're both incompetent egotistic dick heads.
now jack must have some legitimate claim,and so does the minister, but my beef is why couldn't they have worked it out and came to an amicable agreement before a match was even announced.
tickets were sold and the fans already made the effort to get here only to be confronted with this disheartening news. remember this is england we playing and not mexico. the whole world watching how fackin silly and inefficient we are.
remember english fans already plan their vacation around this game only to be inconvenienced by our petty feuding, this is just the game we needed after suffering for almost two years, only have it snatched away.
i think the minister should've let this one slide to save face , and after the game lay down the ground rules for further use of the facilities. if this continues , then think about the damage, not only to the fans , but the players and their future, a game like this could be essential to a young players future.
jack would always be jack , selfish ,inconsiderate and he will always come out on top. them youth ain't so lucky and hunt should take that into consideration instead of trying to luck down jack. there's an African proverb that states, when two elephants fight only the grass gets hurt.

JC please DO NOT fall for Jackula's squarkin about the matter
he is very fortunate to have the fee knocked BACK down to 150,000 and NOT the required 900,000 that is required by the terms of the contract.
You have to realise that the Govt is NOT just accepting what Jack Say...the govt has requested Accountabilty and transparency and they KNOW what the deal is and Jack only makin NOISE.
Yesterday the deal was 10% of sales
Today the deal was 10% of sales
Tomorrow the deal is 10% of sales
doh let Jack FOOL allya, PLEASE.
Some people so TIZIC about this game that they acting like DRUG addicts that have been threatened with missin out on a HIGH.
All Jack have to say is Game gobe cancelled, and ONE SETTA chicken Little running around puttin down the Government sayin...Oh gawd...de Govt goin and get we Game Cancelled.....It MUST BE the government fault.........not realising that it is Jack with his Shit YET AGAIN.
Allya Please READ what is the deal...............PLEASE
-
My view on this from a distance is as follows:
Hunt was never going to let the game be cancelled. He wanted to put down his marker and let Jack know-publicly-that he can no longer do what he wants, when he wants. If he doesn't follow correct procedure, Hunt will stop him.
Warner knows he's in a fight and cannot be seen to be subservient to the government (which every citizen should be). Therefore, despite Hunt saying he will revert to original agreement (which was probably his intention all along), Warner still wants to take it to court so he can prove a point. No Minister is gonna tell him what he can do in the country he owns. If he loses the England game, he knows some unintelligent people will side with him. He can go to Sydney and tell FIFA "Look what I'm up against. I've been planning this game for 3 years and the stupid minister cancelled it because of politics"
People on here complaining about inflation and rising cost of living, yet this agreements been in place for 20 years. More government departments have to get out of their comfort zone like Hunt has and get tough. Problem is, if they get tough, many voters will not see the long term benefits and start whining and vote for Warners flunkies.
This is not about winning votes. Hunts move here is a vote loser. But, if he can clean up football before the election, he could have a job for life.
Also, he is not a football person. He views football as important, but not to the detriment of other sports. This has to be agood thing. Football should be able to fund itself....if the right people are in charge and money is'nt being taken out of the game. You heard Hunt $100 million TT since 2006. Where is it? It sure as hell didn't get paid to the players or stadiums!!
-
Nah west coast , i not getting tied up as you may think, my point is simple. the football has been a stop and go process for the longest and we all know what's the cause of that. the issue i have is with that is, even though jack is the main culprit, it still takes two to tango.
the minister have to find a way to work with stuborn jack or our youth will suffer the consequences, not hunt and certainly not jackular.
i want to see the football start flowing freely and not stop and go, or there's no reason for any of us to follow national football, ah mean HELLO!!! what's the point of sticking with a disappointing situation, why not move on.
yuh see coast i'm not quite ready to move on , ah want to give this one more chance, and though all the signs show that it maybe wiser to cut and run , a part of me want's to see it through.
you can't deny that MR Hunt should've been a little more professional in stipulating his terms and conditions for rental at the initial meeting, then all this would be ah non issue, but he himself said on the interview that they needed to professionalise sports in T&T hense the new terms.
if hunt waited until after the game , then i think that would've been better for all involved. my view even though i might get cuss for it, well who cares, let cooler heads prevail. yuh have to fight jackular with brain and whit not brawn.
PS: i knew somthing like this would've happened. that's why i opted for the 15th.
-
Just Cool, you ever stop and asked yourself "What is THE PROBLEM."
well the way I see it, The problem is Jack wants to Keep paying the $3,000.........never goin to happen from now on says Hunt.
Yes I agree that the PAST minister of sport did not do a proper job of collecting the PROPER fee before.
According to the Contract it has ALWAYS been 3,000 OR 10% of Gate.
Forgetting the 3,00 for a moment,
the Gate for this Game is 9,000,000....so 10% is 900,000..Right?
SO the government says, OK, that is a BIG jump from 3,000 so we go give Jack he jacket so that he could fillup he Jacket Pocket with the (900,000 - 150,000 = $750,000 )difference.
Am I explaing it right or you want me to phrase it ah next way........Sorry eh but I find this so simple.
-
Hunf for Prime Minister!
hE HAS MORE GUTS AND METTLE DAN ALL DE REST PUT TOGETHER.
hE IS DAMN RIGHT, THERE IS MORE TO LIFE THAN DAMN FOOTBALL!
Jack saying transparency and accountability is words de government banding around..and he say he books get audited den show de foacking books or shut yuh stuttering pie hole de f**ker meet he match.
Bravo Mr. Hunt yuh is ah borse and whoebver say diferent is ah C@nt!
Yuh is ah true patriot and yuh doh play de arse..run yuh ministry as all other ministries should be run.
f**k TTFF, f**k Jack and f**k England
Ah guess yuh refering to me. well lets deal with what's really important in a developing nation before yuh shower all that false praise on this rookie for PM who stood up for a lesser cause.
lets see , education of which we're lacking imencly , national security yet another deficiency in our nations diet, inflation, and to me that the most important area in which we're evidently lacking, police and political corruption, unemployment even though there's been an increase within the last 2 yrs , it's still insuficient, inadiquate health care system, Crime.
now i know that's not hunt's responsibility , but the things that really need tending too is left adrift, and while the nation is in turmiol and ppl are being ravaged all around, he's looking to save a couple of bucks on the stadium .
meanwhile ignoring the bigger picture, letting the game play will generate much more revenue for the country and the public rather than going without it.
now tell me if standing up to JW take precedence over the more important issues which i outlined.
IMO he's ah f@ckin joke, he waited till every thing was in full motion to bring up this crap about new rental agreement and protocolls. this should've been on the table from the initial meeting.
yes warner is ah crook , and yes he's been taking advatage of the footballers for yrs,but the fact remains that the ppl of T&T will have to suffer yet again for the politicians row.
and the minister should've made this aboundantly clear from the get go, why wait until the wheel was in full motion. to me that was malicious and jokey. there are no winners involved in this senario, and a good statsman always choose winning as an option rather than losing.
No offense but yuh talking a pack ah foolishness there.
You talk about corruption in one sentence and then in the next one you acknowledge that JW is a crook but we should allow him to do what he wants. Why??? Just to see England???
No game is important enough to let this man continue his maddness.
-
Leh warner haul he c**t
I standing with Gary Hunt!
TT like ah have to call de printers in de morning and tell dem change de slogan..... :devil: ;D
-
Fella I and you always cool eh, but yuh talking plenty shit of the highest grade!
Hunt eh trying to save money...he trying to bring order into the Sports Ministry. Not becasue things run free all de time means that is how it should continue.
Fees must be paid and if indeed on a sliding scale den I say he DAMN RIGHT!
He may be a rookie minister, but he brings excellent management skills to the job, something lacking in ALL OTHER MINITRIES!
He is calling for accountability and transparency...yet you seem to have trouble with that.
f**k de game!
How is that game bringing revenue into the country to speak of?
Steups...yuh really mean revenue into Warner's pocket ent?
We doh need ah few thousand foreigners for a few days to help T&T, what will help the country is accountability and transparency and DOING THE RIGHT THINGS!
That is something allyuh trinis like to sacrifice for entertainment...let de game play, leh we play we mas, jump and wave and misbehave..f**k dat shit!
It is high time T&T comes to order, we is ah damn big republic yet we have man auditing books in secret and cyar show de right spreadsheet for years!
f**k that shit!
Standing up to Jack Warner is a start! He at least is doin g what is right for HIS Ministry, he eh in charge ah crime and education or peewah selling! So he is doing EXACTKLY what you want, yet for the sake of a football game yuh willing to sell out yuh Nation...no wonder we have so much crime and decadence and turmoil in we schools!
Yuh acknowledge de tings yuh feel important is NOT Hunt's responsibility, yet readily find fault when he attends dutifuly to things UNDER HIS PURVIEW!
f**k that shit!
Let Jack have Jamaica play England...leh he haul he stink c**t...I standing with Gary Hunt!
How is that for a tee shirt slogan!
“The ministry recognises that this event is commercial in nature and as such, it is incumbent upon us to seek and protect the rights and intellectual property of Trinidad and Tobago,” he said.
“In the past, rental of the stadium has been done in an ad hoc manner. The policy seeks to standardise rental agreements and professionalise the way the ministry conducts business.”
Hunt announced that the ministry would charge the TTFF a rental of $150,000 for use of the stadium, instead of the ten per cent gate receipts which would have brought in $900,000.
He asked the TTFF to utilise the profits from this match to invest them into development programmes to assist people in areas such as Toco, Point Fortin, Tabaquite and Sangre Grande.
Hunt said his ministry was prepared to reconsider the terms of the draft lease agreement.
“We are now aware of contractual arrangements with the English FA...We are willing to listen to it,” he said.
“We are also willing to look at the prohibition of alcohol and tobacco advertising for this game. We recognise that it is not safe to advertise these products. We have taken a stance to protect the development of the youth of this country.”

You serious!!!!
Who cares about English fans? You think they care about us?
The point is that Jack does not have a legit claim. He wants to continue to do as he pleases. This is the right time to stand up and air the issues because the stakes are high for JW. We the people really don't gain much from this game. This is not different to a big concert with Jay-Z or whoever you think is a superstar. This game is less about football than it is about entertainment. Hence the reason for Dwight and Latas playing. This is his spectacle for the Centennial.
Let him go to the Oval (freeco to him) if he wants. See how many great teams he can attract there.
It's great that the issues are being aired. By your reasoning the players should not have challenged Jack just so we could save face!
Think about what you are really saying.

i find they didnt really deal with the issue at hand they beat around the bush with their previous battles

JC,
No setta English fans eh coming here for this game, they are staying away in droves from this game cuz dey done see through Jack and he foolishness....dem ent forget how he badmouth they football and know dis game is just an attempt to appease their FA and hopefully de UK FA would get his support for their bid for hosting WC 2018....now if only we Trinbagonians had de balls we woulda do de same....but since dat eh goh happen no time in my lifetime.....

Young Jack bought a donkey from an old farmer for $100.00. The farmer agreed to deliver the donkey the next day. When the farmer drove up the next day, he said, 'Sorry boy, but I have some bad news... de donkey is on my truck, but he dead.'
Jack replied, 'Well den, just give meh my money back.' The farmer said, 'I cyah do that. I went and spent it already.' Jack, 'OK then, just unload the donkey anyway.' The farmer asked, 'What yuh gonna do with him?'
Jack said, 'I going to raffle him off.' To which the farmer exclaimed, 'You cyah raffle off a dead donkey!' But Jack, with a big smile on his face, said 'Sure I can. Watch me. I just won't tell anybody that he dead.'
A month later the farmer met up with Jack and asked, 'Wha happen with dat dead donkey?'
Jack said, 'I raffled him off. I sold 500 tickets at two dollars a piece and made a huge profit' Totally amazed, the farmer asked, 'Didn't anyone complain that yuh had stolen their money because you lied about the donkey being dead?'
And jack replied, 'The only man who found out about the donkey being dead was the raffle winner, when he came to claim his prize. So I gave him his $2 back plus $200 extra, which is double the going value of a donkey, so he thought I was a great guy.'
Jack grew up and eventually became "special advisor to TTFF", and no matter how many times he lied or how much money he stole from the people of Trinidad, as long as he gave them back some of the stolen money, most of them thought he was a great guy.

Excellent time Agent d timing cyah b betta. Y is it dat when somebody appear confident peeps does say cocky.
Im all for wat Hunt is doing.....but seriously he was ketching rell kicks on Jack head and dais why ah say cocky........
People on here complaining about inflation and rising cost of living, yet this agreements been in place for 20 years. More government departments have to get out of their comfort zone like Hunt has and get tough. Problem is, if they get tough, many voters will not see the long term benefits and start whining and vote for Warners flunkies.
dis right here is 1 of the reasons T&T is a sinking ship as a nation..........for years everybody have been raping d country.......this is one of the few times somebody putting dey foot down.......and its in Sports........maybe Patrick Manning should let Hunt run some other Ministries too and apply this same principle
-
This might be out of context, but I read it today and thought of your protest.
Martin Luther King said:-
Now, we are poor people, individually, we are poor when you compare us with white society in America. We are poor.
Never stop and forget that collectively, that means all of us together, collectively we are richer than all the nation in the world, with the exception of nine.
Did you ever think about that?
After you leave the United States, Soviet Russia, Great Britain, West Germany, France, and I could name the others, the Negro collectively is richer than most nations of the world.
We have an annual income of more than thirty billion dollars a year, which is more than all of the exports of the United States, and more than the national budget of Canada.
Did you know that?
That's power right there, if we know how to pool it.
Powerful words from a man who knew how to lead and make people think, and bring about change just by using words.
Now think of what you guys want to achieve. Collectively, you have power.
Use it.

Why is every body missing my point!!! west coast no need to explain!! i understand the whole shabbang. i watch the interview twice, once live and the other at 4 am.
i got the whole 3000 or 10% gate, old deal, new deal 10 % gate , and the minsiter waived it to $150,000. yes i got that !! even my 6 yrs old would've gotten it too.
my point is as follows. the way ppl do things in the 3rd world is so unnessasary and painful, and that never cease to amaze the sensible.
all this crap could've been avoided, just like the impass , just like all the other simplistic disagreements that has taken place in recent yrs, if only ppl proceded with the proper proffesional approach /protocol. and this was no differant from all others!
now i not siding with mr warner in the least, i wiil always hold mr warner in contempt for his bullying ways, but i also live by a certin code of ethics, and the one that stands out will be equal rights, justice and fairness even for the oppressors. YES . JUSTICE FOR ALL.
i cant help but think that mr hunt was being somewhat of an antagonist and he has an axe to grind with jack, fine keep that out of the public eye and deal with it behind closed doors or preferably in an arena where that is most suitable , but not in public for crying out loud!
My point is, he should've stipulated this way before the game was even concieved , maybe this shoud've been done as soon as he took office. why wait until tickets were printed, and things set in motion to implement new guidelines, and don't tell me he didn't , he did!
BC that would mean you didn't watch the interview at all, and he certianly did that, he said it himself when Ms Dass ask him the question.
i could only think that this was political chess and have absolutly nothing to do with the love for country,the ppl, or concern for goverment funds.
i could've understood the arguement if he made it clear from the get go, that we are opperating under differant guidelines and we've changed the rental agreement for the use of all our sporting facilities.
but no, that was not discussed in the initial meeting , so it was understood that the same rental agreement applied, is only when he saw how much jack stood to make from this game, he opted to do what he did , now to me that's childish and playful.
then last night in the interview he said that he would bring it down to 150,000, which he dicided on yesterday in his press release.
now i don't give ah dam about politcal strife, BC to me that's what's mashing up trinidad & tobago, these two parties can't agree to work together for the advancment of T&T, and it shows even in a little sporting event.
PS: for all who saying who gives a f#ck about england, well hear this . it's not about england , it's about how we are percieved in the world over.
the world is watching! ppl, and it doesn't do good for our image!! it's a pride thing man!! do you ppl have any sort of pride or shame ?
this could've been handled in a far more proffesional manner , both the minister and the TTFF are at fault. they are playing politics, and the ppl are smack in the middle.

but no, that was not discussed in the initial meeting , so it was understood that the same rental agreement applied, is only when he saw how much jack stood to make from this game, he opted to do what he did , now to me that's childish and playful.
then last night in the interview he said that he would bring it down to 150,000, which he dicided on yesterday in his press release.
now i don't give ah dam about politcal strife, BC to me that's what's mashing up trinidad & tobago, these two parties can't agree to work together for the advancment of T&T, and it shows even in a little sporting event.
PS: for all who saying who gives a f#ck about england, well hear this . it's not about england , it's about how we are percieved in the world over.
the world is watching! ppl, and it doesn't do good for our image!! it's a pride thing man!! do you ppl have any sort of pride or shame ?
this could've been handled in a far more proffesional manner , both the minister and the TTFF are at fault. they are playing politics, and the ppl are smack in the middle.
:applause: excellent post!

Just Cool,
I care what the world thinks. This is the right time to do this. Let them know that we are not only about j"jam and wine" and drinking rum and coke under the coconut tree. Something is f....ing wrong is paradise. That is what we want the rest of the world to know. We wanted it resolved amicably, but is not going to happen so. Then we will use drastic measures.

JC, we all understand where you coming from, but it have to start somewhere and sometime...and the time is now!!. Plus watch who brought this in the public first...not hunt but TTFF who was looking for public pity...this could have been out of the public wyws if only they had met with the minister and fight it out behind closed doors.
Big Up!

Which is what I alluding to in a post under a different thread yesterday....de TTFF had this draft lease agreement since 15th May, but wait until we all trek down to Marvin Lee and pay we money and den cry foul....so yes JC we all understand where yuh coming from but yuh see when it come to Jack, he just trying to milk dis for all it's worth...
Yuh say Gary Hunt childish, how do you explain dat the Minister invite them to a meeting to discuss football since April 8th but the TTFF never turn up....and what about the elusive audited accounts that the Ministry asking for how long now....according to Jack dey done finish....so why he eh turn dem over to the Ministry yet.....steups...
Jackula could go jump in a lake for all I care and as for us being embarrassed by how the world sees us....trust mih Jackula doing that all by himself everyday he and his croonies are in charge of our football....

Yuh know what I find hard to understand...from the time Hunt came into office he has signaled that this won't be a case of business as usual... clear and transparent accountability would be the name of the game. He signaled this LONG f**kING TIME AGO. Obviously, where this applies has to be addressed on a CASE BY CASE basis. He can't peremptorily say this is the procedure that it will apply to every single situation in the future. All he can do is speak in terms of generalities until the specific situations arise.
What...Gary Hunt was suppose to f**king spell out what policy changes vis-a-vis stadium rentals would be the day he got into office? Bullshit. You deal with stadium rental as it comes up and address the particulars of that situation as it arises. You think HC stadium was on his mind the day he got appointed? Look the man even say that the situation is presently before Cabinet....it is clear that is only now the situation is being addressed because it has only just come up. The man ent God he can't address everything all at once at the same time. Idiots who can't read keep talking about "initial meeting"... there WAS NO INITIAL meeting. When Hunt call them to meet they refuse to show up and instead sent everybody's favorite pothound, Shaun Fuentes with a camera in hand to tape the conference. The meeting was with that Stephen fella who did not have the authority to implement any new changes, and NO AGREEMENT ON RENTAL price was reached. Allyuh keep falling fuh de ole rope-a-facking-dope...Go read Om Lalla letter and find the date on which the agreement was reached on price. The letter clearly states that as of the last meeting on May 15th...pricing terms were to be deferred until later.
Who want to continue to construe this as "political chess" either can't fackin read for understanding or is a damn ass.

Young Jack bought a donkey from an old farmer for $100.00. The farmer agreed to deliver the donkey the next day. When the farmer drove up the next day, he said, 'Sorry boy, but I have some bad news... de donkey is on my truck, but he dead.'
Jack replied, 'Well den, just give meh my money back.' The farmer said, 'I cyah do that. I went and spent it already.' Jack, 'OK then, just unload the donkey anyway.' The farmer asked, 'What yuh gonna do with him?'
Jack said, 'I going to raffle him off.' To which the farmer exclaimed, 'You cyah raffle off a dead donkey!' But Jack, with a big smile on his face, said 'Sure I can. Watch me. I just won't tell anybody that he dead.'
A month later the farmer met up with Jack and asked, 'Wha happen with dat dead donkey?'
Jack said, 'I raffled him off. I sold 500 tickets at two dollars a piece and made a huge profit' Totally amazed, the farmer asked, 'Didn't anyone complain that yuh had stolen their money because you lied about the donkey being dead?'
And jack replied, 'The only man who found out about the donkey being dead was the raffle winner, when he came to claim his prize. So I gave him his $2 back plus $200 extra, which is double the going value of a donkey, so he thought I was a great guy.'
Jack grew up and eventually became "special advisor to TTFF", and no matter how many times he lied or how much money he stole from the people of Trinidad, as long as he gave them back some of the stolen money, most of them thought he was a great guy.

Bakes, men just want to see the 3 Lions so anything or anyone who oppose the game or try to "stick a spoke in the wheel" will be playing politics. Imagine the minister drop the 10% and say I will give alyuh ah lil bligh, and JW still crying and men here backing up JW. If JW had the people best interest in mind he would of whip out the black card or the concacaf check book and pay the minister laughing. Asd a matter of fact he could of given a $200 000. But JW bad mind, is all or nothing. Yuh feel the minister eh want to see the Hengland game too. That's why he begging JW for tickets.
A few days ago after the QC ruling in the players money case men was beating JW like a good friday bobolie, now JW is the victim. How fast we forget.

Probably solid points by B&S. Cyah disagree nah, but I am following as best as I can
Dreamer leh mih tell yuh eh...I know game and could recognize it when I see it. Jack Jedi game strong dred. I doh think people understand de heights of skullduggery we dealing with here enuh, lol. Jack is a master of subtleties and it tying up de public head bad. It ent easy to follow eh, but yuh have to take yuh time and piece it together. Read Lalla letter again, ah think there are three points where he mention the agreement on the lease price and specifically that THAT particular term (rental fee) was being deferred until later on.
Ask yuhself, as a tenant, why would something as critical as that (for most people that's the whole pie right there, "how much to rent this place") would be deferred? Now think of the situation...Jack want the best possible facilities, this ent Bim or Bermuda we playing after all...and this not fuh TV6 broadcast. My bet is that the pitch we will see is unlike anything we've seen in quite some time. Who knows what other upgrades to the physical plant are in the works as well... remember that every camera angle will be covered, so electrical upgrades of some degree are to be expected. So it is clear these upgrades must be factored into the cost of renting the facility...and it is clear that ONLY AFTER sourcing the materials and labor etc. could estimates be included in the cost...in short it would take time. Jack and dem knew this, which is why they didn't press for a price immediately.
When Hunt forwarded the proposed lease what kill Jack dead was the fact that they wouldn't get away with renting the HC for $3,000 TT. See the 10% thing was always there, but they could always hide ticket numbers and what not to avoid paying more than $3,000. Remember, is either $3,000 or 10% WHICHEVER IS GREATER. So now that Jack outsmart heself and run and hold big release gloating about how he sell out de match in less than 24 hours (or whatever it was), with the stratified pricing (covered, uncovered and VIP seating...with exactly how many of each available) being public domain now (everybody know exactly how much seat sell, and for how much) ...since he wanted to boast and tell we everything sell out, is simple math now to figure out how much money is to be made from the gate.
Using that figure, Hunt now say "we asking either $150K or the usual 10%...but guess what, gate receipts add up to $9M...so 10% of that mean they owe de Ministry $900,000. Enough to make ah criminal bawl...and bawl he did. Obviously it go hurt when yuh plan on paying $3K and now hearing that yuh either have to pay $150k or $900,000k...regardless whether yuh could afford it or not, it will still hurt. Yuh miss de part whey dey was boldface enough to ask the Ministry to forego charging dem anything at all or what? lol...then they say they withdrew that request b/c the Ministry wasn't cooperating. No shit....freeco days done.
Now mind you looming in the background is the fact that Jack just took a very public ass-whipping in front of everybody with this arbitration ruling. I don't think he wanted too much focus on that with the BBC and whomever else here. So throw up an elaborate smoke screen...threaten to cancel the game...last minute play hero and say "this is unfair what the gov't is doing, but we'll take one for the public and still hold the game"... and before you know it arbitration talk on de back burner whey de public concerned. De man smart and conniving, he eh reach where he is in FIFA by mistake.

Elan me eh much different, I want to see them too...me eh shame to say that I is ah man grow up rooting fuh England in de WC, but I real like how Hunt moving dred...Jack meet he match. Ah was disappointed that Hunt dress back from de 10% talk and say he go take de $150k instead eh. Like somebody say, rather than telling Jack gimmih dat and put something into development...I woulda rather see them take de whole $900k and apportion it deyself, but even so this is a good PR move. Hunt cyah lose on dat, b/c at de end of the day he could claim de high road by cutting de TTFF some slack, while at the same time placing the onus square on the TTFF to produce where youth development is concerned. Stroke of near genius.

Why is every body missing my point!!! west coast no need to explain!! i understand the whole shabbang. i watch the interview twice, once live and the other at 4 am.
i got the whole 3000 or 10% gate, old deal, new deal 10 % gate , and the minsiter waived it to $150,000. yes i got that !! even my 6 yrs old would've gotten it too.
my point is as follows. the way ppl do things in the 3rd world is so unnessasary and painful, and that never cease to amaze the sensible.
all this crap could've been avoided, just like the impass , just like all the other simplistic disagreements that has taken place in recent yrs, if only ppl proceded with the proper proffesional approach /protocol. and this was no differant from all others!
now i not siding with mr warner in the least, i wiil always hold mr warner in contempt for his bullying ways, but i also live by a certin code of ethics, and the one that stands out will be equal rights, justice and fairness even for the oppressors. YES . JUSTICE FOR ALL.
i cant help but think that mr hunt was being somewhat of an antagonist and he has an axe to grind with jack, fine keep that out of the public eye and deal with it behind closed doors or preferably in an arena where that is most suitable , but not in public for crying out loud!
My point is, he should've stipulated this way before the game was even concieved , maybe this shoud've been done as soon as he took office. why wait until tickets were printed, and things set in motion to implement new guidelines, and don't tell me he didn't , he did!
BC that would mean you didn't watch the interview at all, and he certianly did that, he said it himself when Ms Dass ask him the question.
i could only think that this was political chess and have absolutly nothing to do with the love for country,the ppl, or concern for goverment funds.
i could've understood the arguement if he made it clear from the get go, that we are opperating under differant guidelines and we've changed the rental agreement for the use of all our sporting facilities.

now i don't give ah dam about politcal strife, BC to me that's what's mashing up trinidad & tobago, these two parties can't agree to work together for the advancment of T&T, and it shows even in a little sporting event.
PS: for all who saying who gives a f#ck about england, well hear this . it's not about england , it's about how we are percieved in the world over.
the world is watching! ppl, and it doesn't do good for our image!! it's a pride thing man!! do you ppl have any sort of pride or shame ?

:applause: excellent post!
Sorry but this is nonsense.
The only people with this viewpoint are those that just want to see the game at any cost. You don't want us to look 3rd world but we should condone corruption just so the game will play.
All this talk about how we are percieved in the world is nonsense. Because of how notoriously corrupt Jack is we are percieved as a banana republic where he is above the laws. England never wanted to play this game anyway and are only coming in exchange for votes to WC 20018. If the game gets cancelled it will be a little blip that will be forgotten after 1 day. However, Jack will look like an ass and I have no problem with that.

I'm sure I read somewhere that Jack was sacked as president by TTFF after the overselling of tickets fiasco. He then reappeared a few months later when he stood for election as Vice President of FIFA. I seem to recall there was something fishy there as well. However, he was voted in and even though he was guilty of the mis selling of tickets , he bacame special adviser to TTFF.

Some ppl just like the sound of their own voice. bottom line is the whole thing was handled less than professional. when ah man is an elected official he should address every aspect of his plans to the ppl he would be dealing with directly, whether he does so on his 1st day or his 30th, it must be done to keep the peace, and a professional working relationship.
those two men are assh@les, very unprofessional and they should be relieved of their responsibilities at once.i don't care for either of them and their modusopperandi.
men talking bout some of us just want to see the 3 lions, and we eh care bout corruption. hell yeah we want to see the lions! why not ! don't you ? that's the reason why we're all members of socawariorrs.net, to talk and watch football and support the warriors, about corruption, one game will not solve an on going past time amongst old theifin fellas.
i'm gonna be a little shallow here. yes i want the game to play , no i don't give ah f@ck if jack get's richer off this match,
yes i've suffered long enough , and i want to see a quality match with some of our best players,
no i don't believe that playing the match will be a continuation of jacks strong hold on T&T football, nor do i believe it's setting a bad example.
we are football lovers not politicians, the whole of trinidad & tobago is muthaf#ckin corrupt, from the PM on down to the little tiefin bandit hiding in ah dark alley, assH@le yuh think stopping one game could put an end to our favorite past time (STEALING).

Owen set to miss England matches
bbc.co.uk
Newcastle striker Michael Owen is likely to miss England's forthcoming friendlies against United States and Trinidad & Tobago because of a virus.
Owen did not report for England duty on Friday and is not expected to play against the USA at Wembley on Wednesday or in Port of Spain on 1 June.
Tottenham midfielder Jermaine Jenas is also out with an ankle problem.
Owen's absence will give the likes of Dean Ashton and Gabriel Agbonlahor a chance to stake a place in the team.
An England statement said: "Ahead of England's friendlies against USA and Trinidad and Tobago, the England squad has seen two changes.
"Michael Owen was unable to report due to an infectious virus and is expected to be out for both games, while Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Jermaine Jenas reported with an ankle injury and has returned home.
"The nine players from Manchester United and Chelsea who were involved in the Champions League final in Moscow on Wednesday evening, will report for England on Saturday.
"David Beckham will report on Sunday, after LA Galaxy's game with Kansas City on Saturday."

Research is good. :-) JAck was never the TTFF/TTFA President; He was their General Secretary from 1971 or thereabouts to 1989. Pete O Connor was te President in the period leading up to the ticket fiasco and was replaced on an interim basis by Major Ralph Bodkyn shortly after the TTFA went bankrupt

The aftershocks of Trinidad and Tobago’s failure to qualify for the World Cup in Italy 1990, were far and wide.The unrelenting pressure over the overcrowding of the stadium and the overselling of tickets, left Warner with no choice but to resign.Warner announced his resignation from the TTFA at the annual prize giving function in December and immediately started his campaign to head CONCACAF.
After a most volatile campaign and a hostile meeting in Guatemala City on April 28, 1990, he became the first Caribbean man to be elected president of the organisation, replacing Mexican Soria Joaquin Terrazzas.

JustCool, the ONLY organisation that has consistently acted in a very unprofessional way has been the TTFF with encouragement of their Spetial Advithor, Austin "Jackula" Warner.

After a most volatile campaign and a hostile meeting in Guatemala City on April 28, 1990, he became the first Caribbean man to be elected president of the organisation, replacing Mexican Soria Joaquin Terrazzas.

England's friendly match against Trinidad and Tobago on 1 June could be cancelled in a domestic row over rental terms for the stadium.
The country's Ministry of Sports owns the Hasely Crawford Stadium.
But the Caribbean nation's football federation (TTFF) are in dispute with them over advertising and rental fees.
Fifa vice-president Jack Warner, a TTFF special advisor, said unless the terms of the agreement were changed the England match would be cancelled.
"If the sports minister does not answer and withdraw this agreement, we have authorised our attorney to file an injunction to restrain the minister for imposing these conditions," he said.
"If the injunction fails, the match fails, I refund people their money and apologise to the world.
"If the injunction wins, then the game is on. If the minister chooses to withdraw this today, then there is no injunction, the game is on."
A letter from the TTFF's attorney, published in the local media on Wednesday, said the conditions demanded by the ministry "will result in a breach of contract with the English FA and may result in a cancellation of the match".
The dispute is the latest in a series of rows involving the TTFF and comes after it was ordered by an arbitration panel in London this week to pay its 2006 World Cup squad extensive bonuses.

Capello lays down law on call-ups
http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/internationals/7416439.stm
England Coach Fabio Capello will have the final say whether Manchester United and Chelsea players will travel with England for the Trinidad & Tobago game.
Nine players involved in the Champions League final are due to report for England on Saturday ahead of Wednesday's match against the USA.
However, it remains unclear whether they will travel for the 1 June game.
"I'll decide - if I want them to go then they'll go," he told the BBC in his first interview in English.
"We are one England team and we wear one England shirt," he added on Football Focus.
Meanwhile, Newcastle striker Michael Owen is likely to miss the forthcoming friendlies because of a virus.
Owen did not report for England duty on Friday and is not expected to play against the USA at Wembley or in Port of Spain the following Sunday.
Tottenham midfielder Jermaine Jenas is also out with an ankle problem.
Owen's absence will give the likes of Dean Ashton and Gabriel Agbonlahor a chance to stake a place in the team.
An England statement said: "Ahead of England's friendlies against USA and Trinidad and Tobago, the England squad has seen two changes.
"Michael Owen was unable to report due to an infectious virus and is expected to be out for both games, while Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Jermaine Jenas reported with an ankle injury and has returned home.
"The nine players from Manchester United and Chelsea who were involved in the Champions League final in Moscow on Wednesday evening, will report for England on Saturday.
"David Beckham will report on Sunday, after LA Galaxy's game with Kansas City on Saturday."

So is d under 20 dat comin

So is d under 20 dat comin
Doubt it...may not be the English players of Man U and Chelsea who played in the CL final but you will deinitley see a team of premiership players
-
D FA went 2 bed with a dog and eh expect 2 get fleas
-
This is not surprising. A couple of years ago they went to the US and the team that played was enventually called a "C" team. I think Kieran Richardson scored a couple of goals and England won 2-0. It was always likely that the top players like Becks, Rooney, Gerrard, and Lampard, etc wouldn't end up playing.

Tickets, tickets anyone?

Judge settles stadium fee dispute, Trinidad-England soccer friendly will go ahead
International Herald Tribune
A judge ruled on Friday that Trinidad's soccer federation must pay US$24,000 (€15,300) in stadium fees, guaranteeing that the sold-out friendly between Trinidad and England will take place.
Judge Carol Gobin said the Ministry of Sports cannot charge 10 percent of gate receipts as it had been demanding.
"The game will go on," she said.
Both sides said they would honor the ruling, which stated the payment must be made by next Tuesday.
The June 1 friendly at Hasely Crawford Stadium was under threat of being canceled because the federation accused the government of charging a higher stadium fee than agreed to.
Sports Minister Gary Hunt said this week the government was charging US$24,000 (€15,300) or 10 percent of the gate receipts, and said federation officials knew it could increase the fee at any time.
"We're happy that this matter has been resolved, and we're sorry that it has come to this point," said Om Lalla, attorney for the Trinidad and Tobago Football Federation.
Earlier on Friday, he had refused to meet with government officials to talk about the disputed stadium fee, and accused them of deliberately trying to embarrass the federation.
Lalla requested that Trinidad's High Court settle the matter.
All 23,000 tickets have been sold for the match.

The keeper we are going up against is Joe Lewis:
Capello makes shock call-up
by Toby Davis, Setanta Sports
24 May 2008
Peterborough keeper Joe Lewis has been handed a shock call-up to Fabio Capello’s England squad for the friendlies against USA and Trinidad & Tobago.
Lewis made his Under-21 debut against Wales recently and has been rewarded for a string of impressive performances as The Posh won promotion to League One.
Capello watched Lewis in action first hand for the Under 21s against Wales at the Racecourse Ground.
Peterborough director of football Barry Fry told the club's official website: "This is fantastic news for Joe and Peterborough United.
"I believe there has been an injury to one of the goalkeepers in the squad and they have called Joe up. It will be a fantastic experience for him."

Capello lays down the law again
by Tom Kell, Setanta Sports
24 May 2008
Fabio Capello admits he will experiment in England’s forthcoming friendly double-header but has once again reiterated to the elder statesmen in his squad that they cannot afford to rest on their laurels.
England take on the United States at Wembley on Wednesday and then travel to Trinidad and Tobago as part of Capello’s 11-day training camp.
Members of Chelsea and Manchester United’s Champions League final squads joined the 28-man party on Saturday.
Capello will do his usual of culling his squad to just 21, but not until after the game with the USA.
"When you play for the national team you have to play like it is a final in every game,” he said. "Against USA I want to see one team playing like a group, with courage and strength.
"It is very important for me to recover the spirit of the England team. We have 28 players and before we leave for Trinidad, I will choose 20 or 21 players.
"Everyone has to come when I select them and these players have to play with the spirit like they do at their clubs.
"My ambition is to arrive at the top. You have to work to change the mentality. I believe we can do that but the players must also believe.
"England had two teams in the Champions League final and they are ambitious teams. You have to transmit the same ambitions in the England team.
"I will experiment against Trinidad. We have good material here and have been competitive against every team."
Capello also confirmed that he expected John Terry to be available for selection despite the Chelsea defender's midweek toil in Moscow.
-
You would see players like Defoe, Walcott, Lennon and Wes Brown against Trini...Late in the game when Capello realise England not going to win ;D then he will bring on de First string players like Rooney, Beckham or Lampard

Maximus Dan for pre-game show.
T&T Express Reports.
The Trinidad and Tobago Football Federation will stage an official pre-game affair at Jean Pierre Complex, Mucurapo, ahead of the June 1 T&T/England friendly international, at the Hasely Crawford Stadium.
Scores of English supporters are scheduled to arrive in T&T next week ahead of the much-anticipated match-up, dubbed "A Score to Settle".
The pre-game show starts at noon and will feature local dishes, steel pan, tassa, Kes the Band, Maximus Dan and Shurwayne Winchester. There will also be monitors at the venue to broadcast the match for those fans who were unable to secure tickets to the game.
Limited $100 advance tickets for the pre-match show are on sale at Francis Fashion outlets in Port of Spain, Trincity Mall and Gulf City Shopping Mall.
"We think it's an excellent opportunity for fans to come together to enjoy the pre-match build up and it will also present fans who were not fortunate enough to secure match tickets to still be part of the euphoria on that day by enjoying the vibes mere metres away from the match itself," according to the T&TFF marketing department. Already, English fans have expressed an interest in attending this event.
"We booked our tickets out to Trinidad once we saw the game being announced and we really want to get as much in before and after the game. We will definitely spend our time at any kind of events leading up to the game.
"And there are a couple of our friends who haven't yet got their tickets so at least there's another option now. We are just excited to be out to Trinidad," English fan Molly Butcher wrote in an e-mail to the T&TFF.

Gally is the only big man in football that not in Jack pocket.
And rant and rave against Jack , he still control football in Trinidad and continuosly attacking the local players because they get pick instead of the blacklisted players not changing that.
All that it doing is causing the young players that read this site to wonder about a fans site that saying they not good enough.
Imagine a site dedicated to supporting Trinidad football and half the posters only de crying the local youths, its a travesty.

Peterborough Goalie Gets Late Call
Shaun Fuentes (TTFF)
Peterborough goalkeeper Joe Lewis has been called into the senior England squad for the friendlies against the USA and Trinidad & Tobago.Lewis, who made his Under-21 debut against Wales recently, played an important part in Posh's promotion to League One this season - making 22 league appearances following his club-record £400,000 move from Norwich.
Having watched Lewis in action against Wales at the Racecourse Ground, head coach Fabio Capello has rewarded him with a call-up into the full squad.
Director of football Barry Fry told the club's official website: "This is fantastic news for Joe and Peterborough United. I believe there has been an injury to one of the goalkeepers in the squad and they have called Joe up. It will be a fantastic experience for him."
Trinidad and Tobago head coach Francisco Maturana also made an addition himself, inviting Caledonia AIA's Hayden Tinto to join his squad following his impressive showing in the Courts Pro Bowl Final on Friday night in which his team won the title with a 2-0 win over Defence Force
-
so he add Tinto at the last minute beacuse he play good, but leave out Scottie
-
Imagine a site dedicated to supporting Trinidad football and half the posters only de crying the local youths, its a travesty.
Most people are decrying a system that visibly does not allow selection to be done on merit or capability, but bases it on politics. Whether the local youths are good enough or not is completely subordinate to that greater issue.
Whatever happens, there will always be people who consider (with reason imo) that Birchall, Sancho, Avery, Scotland e.. are better than Hyland, Adams, Edwards and Gay e.g. But I'm pretty sure that if the reasons for them being off the team seemed less malicious it would not be a talking point until the serious matches start.
Imagine if this blacklist situation had never existed, and Maturana had instead clearly stated that his intention/mandate was to run the rule through the local youths in the period prior to the high level qualifiers in an effort to rebuild the squad.
Do you think the level of protestation would have been the same, Fish's?

so he add Tinto at the last minute beacuse he play good, but leave out Scottie
Maybe Tnto is midfielder and Scotty a foward.

Some people just DONT get it eh
and Fishs even Gally was BLAMED for the result of the game in 1989 and you till saying Jackula is the best thing for TnT Football....maybe is me eh...buh I dont understand your support of Jackula.
-
I would say doh panic about the foreign based, Birchall, Avery, Cyd, Sancho etc. I believe Maturana is exploring local talent with good intent and Tinto is a solid call.
Iz jess that the TTFF and its PR/Communications staff and administration are trying to exploit this in an evil morale-shattering way and make the foreign-based and blacklist-vulnerable players scared, purposely cold-shouldering them, avoiding communication before team selection, so that a stinging feeling of rejection and abandonment may set in to break morale and trigger thoughts of surrender and begging. The England game is being made to look telling for future trends, as the impression intentionally being created, is that.. "Boy, big game against England!" "If dem blacklisted boys eh geh selected then dey must really be geyyin' thrown under de bus an' into de garbage bin of history."
Well, in the long run, it will be a blessing in disguise to make the Germany Warriors chill a little, as their experience will be needed when the tough nerve-racking qualifying starts or when it intensifies against the mainland teams. These boys who gettin' experience will deepen the pool which cannot afford to be as shallow as we used to know it before. Every man must feel total confidence in himself when he faces de opposition, whether here in T&T on home soil, or 6000 feet in de air wit' de deafening cacophany of noise and intimidation. Let Tinto and dem taste it now. We go deal wit' England later when it matters more.
Big up.
-
Well done Tinto..grab your opportunity...
He is probably one of the most underrated local players that we have. He is such a good talent. He remind me so much of Aaron Lennon.
He is probably the quickest player that we have with the ball at his feet. Congrats to him and i hope he takes his chance.
ah love it!!

Jokey-ass judiciary.
i wouldn't chastise the judiciary on this issue. This to me is a good example of judicial reticence and Madame Justice Gobin really wanted to the parties to settle, as comes out of Francis Joseph's more detailed report into the Court proceedings
http://www.socawarriors.net/forum/index.php?topic=36097.0
There isn't a mention there of the 10% in that report, however if she did state that, and as you are well aware the purpose of the remedy of judicial review is to ensure that the applicant is given fair treatment by the authority to which he has been subjected. That includes to prevent an abuse of power, a usurpation of power and that procedural fairness has transpired in the decision making process.
It's a discretionary remedy and I think Madame Justice Gobin would have taken into consideration all the factors, including the proximity to the match when the decision was taken by the minister, the 'agreement' that the TTFF had with the stadium, the threat of third party litigation from the English FA, but most importantly the fact that the matter was set to go before cabinet shortly as stated by the Minister and therefore, legislation was the best method of bringing about fixed terms apportionment of revenue to the ministry for use of the stadium.
In any event, I think had the two camps not come to a consent order, the balance of convenience lay with the TTFF and Warner et al would have gotten their injunction.
The game was never off though

Of course...with the initial burden of proof lying with the claimant. Bear in mind my comment was made in direct response to this statement taken from the newspaper account: "Judge Carol Gobin said the Ministry of Sports cannot charge 10 percent of gate receipts as it had been demanding.
"The game will go on," she said."

Nothing of what you say here could ever have justified a ruling that the Ministry was NOT entitled to 10% of the gate receipts...nothing short of the TTFF arguing and proving economic duress. Not even 'bad faith' in contracting in of itself is sufficient a reason to invalidate the stipulation of 10%...as I'm sure you're well aware of. The bottomline is that the 10% item was a principal term of the preceding contractual agreement, one which the TTFF apparently never had issue with in the 20 prior years...so it would have been entirely reasonable that they should expect to pay $3,000 or 10% of gate receipts as has always been the agreement the prior 20-odd years.
The only credible grounds short of economic duress would have been to seek excuse for performance on the contract on the grounds of changed economic situation, one which made it impossible or impracticable for the TTFF to pay the 10%. I think we would both agree that Jack would have had a hard time arguing with a straight face (let alone proving) that they're suffering some disadvantaged economic fortune not of their own creation. So again, HAD Justice Gobin so ruled that the Ministry were not entitled to a term which the TTFF willingly, knowingly and intelligently bargained for years in advance of this situation...then that indeed would have been a curious exercise of discretion as implied by my original post.

True. Daz why he keepin Gally FAR AWAY from national football. No more blight and we go World Cup.
Go Jack Go!!... 8)
Gally is the only big man in football that not in Jack pocket.
And rant and rave against Jack , he still control football in Trinidad and continuously attacking the local players because they get pick instead of the blacklisted players not changing that.
All that it doing is causing the young players that read this site to wonder about a fans site that saying they not good enough.
Imagine a site dedicated to supporting Trinidad football and half the posters only de crying the local youths, its a travesty.
Fishes, i was one to cry down the youths baller BC of their lack of experience, i also thought that since we went through trial and error over the yrs losing constantly to mexico and the US and finally getting a proper equilibrium as a team, i would've liked to ride that out, but instead only to have it short lived. ah huge disiappointment indeed.
i thought it would be the turning point of our game , especially after we had a good showing in the WC, and it was my view that we would triumph in the region finally.
but now i have a differant view since we're not going to see the likes of sancho, andrews, birchall, and others, but that's all good BC we get to groom another batch of player who have less bad habbits and the coach seem to be optimistic which in turn strenghten my faith in this new crop of players.
we may not get the immediate results we require, but i think in 2014 we will have a bomb squad. lets look to the future and forget the past, i think those newly discovered youths are just incouraging.
i happened to like this local squad, as opposed to whim's local squad with the likes of Pacheco , glassgow, tussant,baptise, spann, bleeder,. i like them 18 yrs olds. if yuh gonna groom locals yuh better off grooming the babies , not those season rejects.
i feel optimistic about these young cats , and i have to say , i never thought those words would've ever entered my thought, but pancho made a believer out of me. positive.

Positive. Everything eh gloom and doom. Congrats Tinto!

B&S,
agreed that what u said was on the basis of the first newspaper report.
I disagree with the economic duress arguments which the TTFF would have had to advance to secure the injunction.
Bearing in mind, this was a judicial review application and not an action for breach of contract, estoppel, or inducement to breach of contract, there are a confluence of factors and equitable principles that the court can take into consideration in checking the power of public authorities.
The court will intervene to ensure that the powers of public decision making bodies are exercised lawfully and such a body will not act lawfully if it acts ultra vires or outside the limits of its jurisdiction.
The court can also intervene if there is an abuse of power and while bad faith is ONE of the factors to be taken into consideration, there are several others to which my justifications relate. These are fairness; where the exercise of a discretion in a manner which is inconsistent as between affected persons can be taken into consideration; improper purpose, manifest unreasonableness,
The court also employs this remedy to ensure procedural fairness of the decision; which includes principles of natural justice and legitimate expectations. A legitimate expectation may arise from consistent past practice (such as this being the position for the last 2 decades and then being changed days before) and can be protected by the court on the basis that principles of fairness, predictability and certainty should not be disregarded.

You make some fair points...I'll address it in two parts

I'm not really sure where you're getting that from, the TTFF sought injunctive relief not because they felt he was overstepping his authority as Minister of Sport, but because they felt the Ministry was in breach of the contractual agreements between the parties:
"The T&TFF claimed in an injunction filed in the High Court that the Ministry breached its initial contractual obligations in a March 15, 2008, agreement, by offering the Federation a revised agreement on May 15."
Taken from the same Express article (http://www.socawarriors.net/forum/index.php?topic=36097.0) you cited earlier.
"Judicial Review" itself is not a separate and autonomous body of law, but addresses the scope of the powers of the judiciary to exercise jurisprudence over any number of issues. Included among these is abuse of authority of public officials ex oficio, and review of disputes between parties requiring more immediate relief than would normally be granted via trial... in this case review for the purpose of granting injunctive relief.
The court will intervene to ensure that the powers of public decision making bodies are exercised lawfully and such a body will not act lawfully if it acts ultra vires or outside the limits of its jurisdiction.
The court can also intervene if there is an abuse of power and while bad faith is ONE of the factors to be taken into consideration, there are several others to which my justifications relate. These are fairness; where the exercise of a discretion in a manner which is inconsistent as between affected persons can be taken into consideration; improper purpose, manifest unreasonableness,

A legitimate expectation may arise from consistent past practice (such as this being the position for the last 2 decades and then being changed days before) and can be protected by the court on the basis that principles of fairness, predictability and certainty should not be disregarded.
Again, with respect to the part highlighted in red, and the subsequent arguments that follow in (your original) bold... this was not the basis upon which relief was sought. Nor could it be because the Ministry was entirely within it's jurisdiction to exercise it's contractual rights, this is not an abuse of discretion issue...it's a contractual dispute. Framed within the issue would have to be the question "Whether the Minister of Sports was within his contractual rights to demand of the TTFF a payment of 10% of the gate receipts for the upcoming game...."
As it turns out this was not ruled upon because the Minister dropped the matter, but had he insisted, I fail to see upon which grounds the TTFF could argue breach of contract, since the 10% is a standing agreed upon stipulation. The breach involved rather, the issue of the downpayment (apparently) and the advertising restrictions...since these (again, apparently) were not part of the initial agreement. I'm all for the discussion, so if you see some basis upon which this could be reviewed under an abuse of discretion principle, then by all means state your case.

B&S,
it's unfortunate that we don't have access to the pleadings of either party and that most of the information that has been afforded to us has been through the press.
The TTFF official press release however says it was an action for judicial review
http://ttffonline.com/cms/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=442&Itemid=1
as does the thread to which I referred you. That thread includes BOTH an express article and below one by the Guardian's Francis Joseph which includes much more of the court legal details and does state that it was on action for judicial review.
http://www.socawarriors.net/forum/index.php?topic=36097.0
But Om Lalla, attorney for the TTFF, dispatched a letter to Hunt yesterday morning, seeking a resolution.
Lalla gave the Minister until midday yesterday to resolve the matter, or be taken to court.
When no reply was received by 4 pm, the TTFF went to the Port-of-Spain High Court, seeking judicial review of the decisions taken in the new agreement.
My point therefore was just to show the wide range of factors that Madame Justice Gobin could and should have taken into consideration in both deciding where the balance of convenience lay for an interim injunction and the TTFF's reasonable prospect of success if the judicial review matter would have gone to a full hearing.
I still believe the TTFF would have had a strong argument for procedural unfairness in submitting that they had a legitimate expectation by conduct over the intervening years on which they relied to secure the contract with the English FA and to not honour such an expectation at such a late stage in the game would be contrary to the principles of certainty, fairness and predictability
In any event, luckily it's been settled and the game will continue.

Agreed... funny enough I was just driving back from the gym and this discussion crossed my mind and I thought the same thing... kinda hard to argue conclusively absent of more facts.
As for the article which cited "judicial review" I saw that and I tried to address that, which probably could have been more clear. As I said... "judicial review" itself (as I understand it) is not a seperate area of the law, but rather describes the scope of the court in exercising it's jurisprudence. So the TTFF filing an application for judicial review of the actions isn't itself very informative, because that judicial review would still have to proceed on a specific theory of law under which relief could be granted. To illustrate, they requested judicial review of the actions of the Ministry...but what is the basis of their petition? What area of law governs their concern...is it abuse of authority by a public official (as you seemingly argued?) or is it breach of contract as I believe?
I remain unmoved by the argument that the TTFF would somehow have succeeded (under any legal theory) that the actions of the Ministry in seeking to exercise it's right to 10% of the gate receipts was wrong (or "procedurally unfair"). I think what you're hinting at is unconscionability and procedural unconscionability addresses how the contract was formed, not the right of one party to assert it's contractual rights. But anyways... we could be at this forever.
I'm happy the issue is resolved, but not with the manner in which it was resolved because I feel like the Ministry capitulated and once more the public is getting shafted to the benefit of the TTFF. I have zero faith in them investing the $750,000 that they saved into "the development of youth football"... so add that amount to the kitty along with the money from advertising and broadcast rights...even though they claim they gifted that away to the English FA ::)

Imagine a site dedicated to supporting Trinidad football and half the posters only de crying the local youths, its a travesty.
Most people are decrying a system that visibly does not allow selection to be done on merit or capability, but bases it on politics. Whether the local youths are good enough or not is completely subordinate to that greater issue.
Whatever happens, there will always be people who consider (with reason imo) that Birchall, Sancho, Avery, Scotland e.. are better than Hyland, Adams, Edwards and Gay e.g. But I'm pretty sure that if the reasons for them being off the team seemed less malicious it would not be a talking point until the serious matches start.
Imagine if this blacklist situation had never existed, and Maturana had instead clearly stated that his intention/mandate was to run the rule through the local youths in the period prior to the high level qualifiers in an effort to rebuild the squad.
Do you think the level of protestation would have been the same, Fish's?
Some people just DONT get it eh
and Fishs even Gally was BLAMED for the result of the game in 1989 and you till saying Jackula is the best thing for TnT Football....maybe is me eh...buh I dont understand your support of Jackula.
How you could read what I write and believe I supporting Jack ?

Fishs,
when people talk about the Cornmeals and ONLY getting those players who they like to get a game, are you not concerned.
when players are banned from playing football because of who knows what Jack was thinking, are you not concerned
when players who were PROMISED money are Jacklisted are you not concerned
when players who are doing very well are not asked to put on the RW&B, are you not concerned
but then again some JUST want to watch a Game of Football and DONT care TWO FARTS about how the process works, so I just have to accept that and realise that is their scene.
peace out....or

Well I was giving yuh de benefit of de doubt that what yuh talking is just garbage, but you just elevate yuh statements to pure ignorance loaded with nothing but shit. Apparantely you just looking for talk becuz nothing yuh say so far have any substance other than toilet ingredients.It take ah special kinda ah jackass ,and I mean that in de most sincere way,to ask such ah duncee question.. ''Why yuh doh ask yuh boy Stern why he fighting to play and not stay away in solidarity with the players that not getting pick.''... Is either yuh new tuh TnT football or yuh just talking thru yuh ass,but #14 has NEVER turn his back on his country,even when Latas and Dwight choose not to play,so is not a matter of standing in 'solidarity' or friendship ting .Stern is de back bone of TnT football and with out him we wud not have known what it is to play in ah WC. He willing tuh do what ever it takes tuh take his country to another WC becuz at the end of the day that will only or shud only benefit the youths coming up and the future of TnT football,but with assholes like you,who is part of de public sector, and greedy money hounds like jackass wrangler,makes it very difficult to go forward and as a result has taken TnT football back 10 years. Stern John is continuing to do his part tuh take his country back to another WC, WHAT DE FO CK ARE YOU DOING ? other than lacing this forum with SHIT BOUT JACKASS WRANGLER. I doh expect ah mule like yuh self tuh understand that. Is asswipes like you with yuh ignorant statements that have #14 thinking about retiring from the national team becuz at the end of de day is not jack or de coaching staff keeping him away or have him not wanting tuh play,is pr!cks like yuh self.
Your ignorance of this matter about jackass wrangler making yuh look like ah c0nt .One minute yuh telling ppl ''How you could read what I write and believe I supporting Jack ? Brother I support Trinidad and Tobago football.'' But just before dat yuh bumping yuh gums bout '' This man is TT football like it or not.If yuh supporting the national team it mean yuh supporting Jack.'' ...Now when someone like me read dah kinda jackassrey it hard not tuh abuse yuh.You just bringing yuh bowel movements tuh de forum and want tuh whine like ah lil hen talking bout '' The reality of what I saying probably starting to hit home and childish responses is normally the reaction.'' ...No the reality of what you really telling dis forum is you have de IQ or ah f@cking bigstone and obviously cyar underatand why f@cking yuh up is ah ''normal reaction' and have nuttin tuh do wid being 'childish'.

JC..Is never ah cuss out wid you and me boss,we might disagree but dais as far as it goes ....But JC what is wrong with formites expressing their opinion on the shit dat going on with our football.I hard tuh just say 'forget jack warner' becuz he is de evil in our football,he is de one person that take our football back 10 to 20 years after going to ah WC, an accomplishment we may never see again.I not saying not to support the youths,the team right now is not just youths ,but what happen tuh de players that took us to de last WC shud we just say f@ck dem.Is it fair what jack doing to these players just thru spite and bad mind , blacklisting them and not paying dem their deserved money,while lacing his and his sons pockets.Don't you think dem breddas deserve ah lil more respek than this stinking stammering excuse for ah human being is offering ? Ah national parade 2years ago,heroes, and now some ah dem is goats becuz they ask for what is rightfully theirs ??? How cud anyone justify leaving out Jason Scottland from the national team ? What is de reason Birchall has gotten a call back ?That is a pure case of bad mind and while we might not be able to do anything about it we shud never stop voicing our opinion on the matter becuz dais where IMO we start agreeing with this jackass call warner. :beermug:

I know that boss, but i wasn't refering to you with that statement farder, it have some man who just love to cuss big man for small ting , is them i was guarding meh self against.
as for what you said, yes that's also correct. mind you , i'm no yes man, but it's possible for two differant opinions to make ah world of sense.
jack is in no wise favorable in my eyes, he's as you and countless memebers said about him, a bad minded egotistical maniac, with a dictator over view.
BERRIS another thing that we should all be aware of. jack warner set up the football in such ah way that it would take a miracle to dethrone him. just look how he have blatter tied up like ah market crab, yuh thiunk blatter doh ask he self how he end up being dependant on this jerkoff.
jack set up he self right, and now he's damn near unremovable, so we just have to feel it in we heart and hold ah medi,that and support we players.
look at it this way , last year around this time we had pullstone glassgow, pachecco, light weight tussant , no direspect to them, but presently we have KJ, aurtis, carlos, dennis, stern, clayton and dayrl. plus we have about 5 promising youth the like of hyland, guerra, farrier, K.daniel, tinto,K connell, and many more.
so i think we much much better off than a year ago , and i will take that over nothing, BC i love football. i sorry for the WC out cast , but there's little we could do, i could only grind meh teeth and feel wrated inside, that's all. positive.

Peterborough Goalie Gets Late Call
Shaun Fuentes (TTFF)
Peterborough goalkeeper Joe Lewis has been called into the senior England squad for the friendlies against the USA and Trinidad & Tobago.Lewis, who made his Under-21 debut against Wales recently, played an important part in Posh's promotion to League One this season - making 22 league appearances following his club-record £400,000 move from Norwich.
Having watched Lewis in action against Wales at the Racecourse Ground, head coach Fabio Capello has rewarded him with a call-up into the full squad.
Director of football Barry Fry told the club's official website: "This is fantastic news for Joe and Peterborough United. I believe there has been an injury to one of the goalkeepers in the squad and they have called Joe up. It will be a fantastic experience for him."
Trinidad and Tobago head coach Francisco Maturana also made an addition himself, inviting Caledonia AIA's Hayden Tinto to join his squad following his impressive showing in the Courts Pro Bowl Final on Friday night in which his team won the title with a 2-0 win over Defence Force

Imagine a site dedicated to supporting Trinidad football and half the posters only de crying the local youths, its a travesty.
Most people are decrying a system that visibly does not allow selection to be done on merit or capability, but bases it on politics. Whether the local youths are good enough or not is completely subordinate to that greater issue.
Whatever happens, there will always be people who consider (with reason imo) that Birchall, Sancho, Avery, Scotland e.. are better than Hyland, Adams, Edwards and Gay e.g. But I'm pretty sure that if the reasons for them being off the team seemed less malicious it would not be a talking point until the serious matches start.
Imagine if this blacklist situation had never existed, and Maturana had instead clearly stated that his intention/mandate was to run the rule through the local youths in the period prior to the high level qualifiers in an effort to rebuild the squad.
Do you think the level of protestation would have been the same, Fish's?
Some people just DONT get it eh
and Fishs even Gally was BLAMED for the result of the game in 1989 and you till saying Jackula is the best thing for TnT Football....maybe is me eh...buh I dont understand your support of Jackula.
How you could read what I write and believe I supporting Jack ?
Brother I support Trinidad and Tobago football.
Jack owns TTFF.
It difficult to separate the 2 and the point I'm making is that allyuh hatred for Jack on this forum extending to the youths and the team, dais all ah saying bro.
We know ''dais all '' yuh saying,but it doh change de fact dat is still pure garbage.
What make it garbage ?
All the players blacklisted or not who jumping at the opportunity to play for TT ?
Why yuh doh ask yuh boy Stern why he fighting to play and not stay away in solidarity with the players that not getting pick. I have a lot of respect for most of the people that post here but all of sudden most losing sight of what we here for.
It should not be to devote a lot of time and energy writing about Jack is a big scamp when a lot of people in a better position to deal with that, instead we should be continuosly expressing support for TT footballers , motivating the youths .
Tell me how that is garbage.
The reality of what I saying probably starting to hit home and childish responses is normally the reaction.
Well I was giving yuh de benefit of de doubt that what yuh talking is just garbage, but you just elevate yuh statements to pure ignorance loaded with nothing but shit. Apparantely you just looking for talk becuz nothing yuh say so far have any substance other than toilet ingredients.It take ah special kinda ah jackass ,and I mean that in de most sincere way,to ask such ah duncee question.. ''Why yuh doh ask yuh boy Stern why he fighting to play and not stay away in solidarity with the players that not getting pick.''... Is either yuh new tuh TnT football or yuh just talking thru yuh ass,but #14 has NEVER turn his back on his country,even when Latas and Dwight choose not to play,so is not a matter of standing in 'solidarity' or friendship ting .Stern is de back bone of TnT football and with out him we wud not have known what it is to play in ah WC. He willing tuh do what ever it takes tuh take his country to another WC becuz at the end of the day that will only or shud only benefit the youths coming up and the future of TnT football,but with assholes like you,who is part of de public sector, and greedy money hounds like jackass wrangler,makes it very difficult to go forward and as a result has taken TnT football back 10 years. Stern John is continuing to do his part tuh take his country back to another WC, WHAT DE FO CK ARE YOU DOING ? other than lacing this forum with SHIT BOUT JACKASS WRANGLER. I doh expect ah mule like yuh self tuh understand that. Is asswipes like you with yuh ignorant statements that have #14 thinking about retiring from the national team becuz at the end of de day is not jack or de coaching staff keeping him away or have him not wanting tuh play,is pr!cks like yuh self.
Your ignorance of this matter about jackass wrangler making yuh look like ah c0nt .One minute yuh telling ppl ''How you could read what I write and believe I supporting Jack ? Brother I support Trinidad and Tobago football.'' But just before dat yuh bumping yuh gums bout '' This man is TT football like it or not.If yuh supporting the national team it mean yuh supporting Jack.'' ...Now when someone like me read dah kinda jackassrey it hard not tuh abuse yuh.You just bringing yuh bowel movements tuh de forum and want tuh whine like ah lil hen talking bout '' The reality of what I saying probably starting to hit home and childish responses is normally the reaction.'' ...No the reality of what you really telling dis forum is you have de IQ or ah f@cking bigstone and obviously cyar underatand why f@cking yuh up is ah ''normal reaction' and have nuttin tuh do wid being 'childish'.
Yuh so caught up in yuh mindless hysteria yuh lose my point completely.
I guess ignorance is really bliss.

They say he faster than Cornell...so that alone coupled with his skills means we need to give him the chance to develop.
Spidey, I aint no drum-beater but trust meh bredda de man real fast. I see him last year alot for Cali A1A games and de Dallas vs Pro-league best and de man is no joke. I thought by now he would be in de MLS but it have something going on with him. Once he get pass dat barrier, this is one for de near and distant future.
if he is ur brethren, keep him away from d MLS. Is a waste of time for our players cause once they want a big name to come in, is the Trini who making room for him. No matter how much goal he score.

Dont get me wrong, ah love Stern John strike rate, no one can come close. But from team 2001 (U-17) will we see the re-unite of Jones and Forbes, maybe they are a good option up front, one for the future.
Team 2001, J.Forbes, J.Williams, J.James, M.Hislop, M.Phillip and K.Jones came out of that and are all part of our senior team today...I always though Andre Alexis, Nkosi Blackman, D.Leacock, T.McAllister, D.Bristol and K.Mathura would have been successful... I guess I was wong.

I'll be in T&T and i hope i'll be able to attend if time permits as i have already set up a one day Camp/Clinic in the Aranguez Savannah in San Juan on that day,i have not yet gotten my ticket for the game in hand but my peeps tell me don't worry.
Some thoughts came to my head concerning the response to this event,i'm not a member of WN but i observe any event concerning members on this site seem to get a good response but this one does not look too good,has any one thought there could be reasons for that,i think what going on with our Football has a lot to do with it,don't be surprise those English fans don't show up after what was said about them on this website,the anti Jack/TTFF sentiments back and fourth is dividing our membership,i don't think anyone would like to attend an event like this and there is a possibility that things said here going to be brought up,this is a fun event and we all want to have a good time.
If i make it i personally would just like to attend to meet some of you guys,put some faces to the names on here,i don't have anything to prove by playing Football any more plus i'm too old for that.I would just like to say this to our membership,this site was once a place we looked forward too now peeps scared to post because of the repercussions,it becomes very hostile sometimes,i wonder if we realize people from different cultures read this just how we read theirs,it always had something on here that make me laugh every day,the funny guys have to keep quiet because people taking what they say serious and personal,it's just people's opinion / suggestions / ideas / thoughts,it's there for us to do what we want with it.
Any how i hope the Sweat goes well weather i make it or not but i'll try my best,i really want to be there.

This "for schoolchirren" thing was announced from earlies.
My guess is that there will be an opportunity for the kids to interact with the players, get autographs etc. You don't want big hard back man harangueing Aaron Lennon fuh he autograph when dem fellas juss trying tuh kick ah ball 'rung ah cone and ride out.

That is why it is just an informal gathering. It was originally intended to be a bigger event, but the English fans have indicated that for the most part they do not support this trip by the English team, therefore the turnout will not be huge as usual. In any event, we were told that many of them will be arriving in T&T on Saturday, and plenty of them will be staying in Tobago, so it did not make sense to go forth with the original plans.

I doh think the fan banter thread qualifies in any way as a crime of lese-majesté. Other than Peter Crouch, I think we were a lot more decent with any of the English (players and fans alike) than the average English football fan is with the players and fans of their rival clubs.

Owen Hargreaves feels his Manchester United skipper Rio Ferdinand should be England captain on a permanent basis.
England boss Fabio Capello is yet to name his skipper for Wednesday's friendly with the USA, and must decide who will get the job in the long-term.
Hargreaves said: "There are a lot of individuals who could be captain but Rio has been the most consistent player in England this season.
"He epitomises our success at United and would be a fabulous captain."
Chelsea defender John Terry, 27, was captain under previous England boss Steve McClaren.
Liverpool midfielder Steven Gerrard, who turns 28 on Friday, led England in Capello's first game in charge against Switzerland in February.
But Ferdinand, 29, who skippered United to success in the Champions League and Premier League this season, wore the armband against France in March.
Hargreaves says club feelings are set aside
Capello says he will make up his mind about his permanent skipper this summer and Hargreaves is enjoying playing under the Italian, who replaced McClaren after England missed out on Euro 2008.
The former Bayern Munich midfielder explained: "Everyone's still getting to know each other really but he carries the aura of a big coach - similar to the boss at United (Sir Alex Ferguson).
"I think he does things his own way and players respect that. Everyone's ready to do their best for him.
"You look forward to a change after a disappointing campaign - it's a breath of fresh air."
Meanwhile, Blackburn winger David Bentley is relishing the challenge of trying to oust David Beckham on England's right flank.
David Beckham
Beckham's goal was his fourth of the season for the LA Galaxy
Bentley, 23, hopes to be involved against the US at Wembley and to make the trip to play Trinidad & Tobago at the Hasely Crawford Stadium in Port of Spain on 1 June.
But Beckham, who linked up with the England squad on Monday, is in good form after scoring with a spectacular 70-yard injury-time shot in the LA Galaxy's 3-1 win over the Kansas City Wizards on Saturday.
"I know David Beckham is loved the world over and I admire him as a man and a player but I will be trying my hardest to challenge him for the position and we'll see what happens," Bentley said.
"I have to keep performing and playing to a high level and keep working hard.
"The levels David has reached are fantastic but I know I have to go every day to training and be aiming to reach those levels and go higher.
"You want to push yourself on to the next level and I'll be looking to play as many games as I can to push on to the next step.
"These are big games for me to try and establish myself as an international player and push on which I want to do."
-
Agreed....I love Terry as a skipper as well.. but Rio has been the most concistent English player this season and on current form and leadership value he deserves it

Carribean coaching.
By Matt Phillips.[/size]
The FA’s international relations work continues to thrive with a Level Three coaching course in Trinidad & Tobago recently.
The course, which was held on behalf of the CONCACAF region and tutored by The FA’s Regional Coaching Development Manager for the West Midlands, Andy Poole, featured 28 coaches from the Americas plus the Jamaican national side’s assistant manager, Theodore Whitmore.
Sessions took place on the brand new 3G astro turf pitch at the Marvin Lee Stadium in Tunapuna which is also used by local club, Joe Public FC and the islands’ very own Soca Warriors, Trinidad & Tobago.
Andy Poole, who was joined on the sessions by coaching colleague, Mick Hennigan, commented: “The Level Three course is very demanding on both a tactical and technical level and a lot of the guys on the course still have a bit of work to do in order to reach the required standard.
“I’ve no doubt that they’ll get there eventually though because the talent is definitely there but, for the time being, it’s all about getting the necessary experience to push on for the future.
“Trinidad & Tobago’s success on reaching the World Cup in 2006 has really helped the game to grow and there’s a good community of coaches on all the islands who can offer support, both in person and via the internet.”
CONCACAF, led by Jack Warner, are looking to promote their coaching programme further by launching a Coaches Association in the near future while Fabio Capello brings his England squad to Port of Spain for an international friendly against Trinidad & Tobago on 1 June.

Rooney to get new strike partner
BBC Sport
Rooney is set to start the match against the USA at Wembley
England boss Fabio Capello says he will use Wayne Rooney as a second striker in the friendly against USA on Wednesday.
Capello is without Michael Owen, who has a virus, but will play Rooney with either Peter Crouch, Dean Ashton, Jermain Defoe or Gabriel Agbonlahor.
"It is very important for me to see Rooney not as the first but the second striker," Capello told BBC Five Live.
Frank Lampard is set to start, while David Beckham may play a part as his fitness has impressed the Italian.
"I saw David in training work very well," said Capello. "It was good. He is very fresh as the US players have just started their season.
"The fixture is good for David. He is very fit."
Lampard was part of the Chelsea team which lost the Champions League final on penalties and Capello added: "I'm very happy to see him in the midfield because I think he's a very important player for us.
"For Chelsea players it is very important to play and forget the last game in Moscow."
Capello has welcomed an extended spell with his players to get his ideas across to them.
He has his squad for 10 days for Wednesday's game against USA and Sunday's trip to Trinidad & Tobago.
"It is very important because the players can know what I think about their position," said the Italian.
Keeper Chris Kirkland and midfielder Jermaine Jenas were forced to pull out of the squad, along with Owen, because of injury.
But, otherwise, Capello has a fully-fit squad which he has been putting through its paces with two daily training sessions to get them into shape.
Chelsea and Manchester United's contingent were in action for the Champions League final but most of his squad have had a break since the end of the season on 11 May.
"The players have worked very well and trained for four sessions in two days," said Capello.
"After 10 days holiday we needed two sessions a day and they have worked very well."

Terry to lead England against USA
BBC Sport
John Terry was England captain in the Steve McClaren era
England coach Fabio Capello has named John Terry as captain for Wednesday's friendly against the United States.
He gets the armband for the Wembley friendly as part of the rotation policy before a permanent skipper is named.
And Capello said the captaincy will boost Terry after he missed a crucial penalty in Chelsea's Champions League final defeat against Manchester United.
He said: "It is a good decision for John Terry after last Wednesday, which
was not nice for him."
Capello added: "He has played very well in training and when I told him he would be captain he was very, very happy.
"As a captain I think it is important to be a leader, and John Terry is a leader."
It is the first time Terry, 27, has been captain under Capello, and with a doubt over whether he will be asked to travel for Sunday's friendly against Trinidad and Tobago, this is likely to be his final chance to make his pitch for the armband before a permananent appointment is made.
Liverpool midfielder Steven Gerrard, who turns 28 on Friday, led England in Capello's first game in charge against Switzerland in February.
And Rio Ferdinand, 29, who skippered Manchester United to success in the Champions League and Premier League this season, wore the armband against France in March.
Owen Hargreaves feels United team-mate Ferdinand should be England captain on a full-time basis.
Hargreaves said: "There are a lot of individuals who could be captain but Rio has been the most consistent player in England this season."
The midfield man added: "He epitomises our success at United and would be a fabulous captain."
But he also insisted he would be happy with any final choice, saying: "I have a lot of respect for all those players such as Rio, JT, Frank Lampard, Steven Gerrard, David Beckham. Go right across the board and they are all capable of doing it.
"There are a lot of individuals who could possibly be captain. It is the decision the manager will make. I don't think there will be any animosity towards whoever gets the job."
Capello says he will make up his mind about his permanent skipper this summer and Hargreaves is enjoying playing under the Italian, who replaced McClaren after England missed out on Euro 2008.
The former Bayern Munich midfielder explained: "Everyone's still getting to know each other really but he carries the aura of a big coach - similar to the boss at United (Sir Alex Ferguson).

Wayne Rooney to have hernia operation
By Oliver Brown
Last Updated: 1:58am BST 28/05/2008
The Telegraph.
Wayne Rooney is to have a hernia operation after playing in England's friendly against the United States tonight.
The Manchester United striker has been struggling for fitness since he received a boot in the top of his hip from Blackburn's Ryan Nelsen on Apr 19.
The nature of the injury first became apparent three weeks ago but while most hernias require immediate surgery, United decided that a combination of rest and painkillers would enable Rooney to last until the end of their season.
Rooney is likely to be paired up front with West Ham's Dean Ashton tonight as Fabio Capello looks to sharpen the England attack, but he will miss Saturday's trip to Trinidad and Tobago along with the other United and Chelsea players who competed in the Champions League final in Moscow.

Yorke, Latapy bow out of football duel
Trinidad Guardian
Wednesday 28th May, 2008
BY NIGEL SIMON
RETIRED T&T internationals and former captains, Dwight Yorke of Sunderland FC and Falkirk’s Russell Latapy have turned down the invitation by T&T Football Federation special advisor, Fifa vice-president Austin Jack Warner to play against England on Sunday.
Warner, president of Concacaf had initially hinted that both Yorke and Latapy, the country’s most accomplished footballers could feature in the match as the final bow in their international careers.
Both players, however, have decided against making the brief return to the team, despite the match being played in front of what is expected to be a sold-out crowd of 22,500 at the Hasely Crawford Stadium, Mucurapo from 5.30 pm on Sunday.
Yorke, who featured often enough in Roy Keane’s Sunderland side, and had a stand-out game in the last meeting between the teams in the World Cup in 2006, is still considering his football future beyond T&T’s match against England but could go on the back room staff at Sunderland as part of Keane’s managerial set-up.
Latapy, on the other hand, is also eyeing another year in the Scottish Premier League with Falkirk having already stated his willingness to continue playing despite nearing the age of 40.
Meanwhile, the England squad and coach Fabio Capello are expected to arrive in T&T tomorrow around 4.30 pm minus some of the stars who played in the Champions League Final last week.
Sunday’s match against T&T will be Capello’s last chance to experiment with the captaincy.
And with the majority of Manchester United and Chelsea’s Champions League players unlikely to travel, Aston Villa’s Gareth Barry is being touted as a surprise choice to lead England out.
For today’s clash with USA at Wembley, Capello confirmed that Chelsea captain John Terry will captain England.
The Italian, who addressed the media in English for the first time, revealed he made the decision before the events of last Wednesday’s Champions League final in which Terry missed a penalty kick which would have secured the top European club title for the Blues.
“It’s a good decision for Terry after Wednesday,” Capello said. “He played very well. I told him he’ll be the captain and he was very, very happy. It’s very important to be a leader and Terry’s a leader.”
The England manager is proceeding with his plan to ‘audition’ senior squad members for the post, before making a permanent appointment ahead of the first World Cup qualifier against the Czech Republic at Wembley in August.
Previously Capello has bestowed the armband on Steven Gerrard, for the friendly against Switzerland in February, and Rio Ferdinand for March’s match-up with France in Paris.

England Arrives Today
TTFF Media
The England National Team is scheduled to arrive on a private jet at just around 5pm on Thursday for its friendly international against this country on Sunday.
Following it’s encounter against the United States at Wembley on Wednesday, the England squad under head coach Fabio Capello was scheduled to depart out of Luton and on arrival at Piarco International Airport will head straight for the Team Bus off the jet for its journey to the Hyatt Regency Hotel.
On request of the English FA, there will no ceremonial welcome for the Team on Thursday as the team will make its first appearance at a training session at the Hasely Crawford Stadium on Friday morning. As such there will be no formal meeting upon their arrival which meant that the TTFF regrettably had to turn down an offer from the Ministry of Sport to host a welcome reception at Piarco.
Some members of the England team will also take part in a coaching clinic with eighty local kids at the Marvin Lee Stadium on 6pm on Friday. Youngsters ranging from 8-15 years from different local organizations and clubs have been invited to take part in the clinic.
The TTFF also wishes to advise that NCC Channel 4 are the exclusive television rights holders for Sunday’s match and will air the game live.
Already arriving in the country on Wednesday are English FA officials Claire Groves and Greame White while some media correspondents also came in today and will continue to arrive over the next couple days.
Capello Leaves Home Seven
(Sky Sports)
England coach Fabio Capello has confirmed seven of his squad will not be travelling to Trinidad & Tobago.
With a hectic Premier League season at an end, the Italian tactician has opted to give his Manchester United and Chelsea stars a chance to have an extended break.
That means the likes of John Terry, Ashley Cole, Frank Lampard, Wayne Rooney, Owen Hargreaves, Rio Ferdinand and Wes Brown are all likely to miss England's 10-hour flight to the Caribbean on Thursday.
"Seven players will stay here. The Chelsea and Manchester United players. They are finished for the season," he told Sky Sports News.
This means that T&T fans will get to see the likes of David Beckham, Joe Cole, David Bentley, Steven Gerrard, Peter Crouch and others in the Team on Sunday.
England saw off USA 2-0 at Wembley on Wednesday and Capello's believes the win will benefit the Three Lions in the long term.
Capello does not believe USA were simply making up the numbers and Wembley and that the side can take great heart from the success.
"I'm very happy because I think at this moment the USA are a good team. They are well organised and it's not easy to score a goal," he continued.
"We played very well with good concentration. When we needed to play a long ball we did and when needed to pass we did.
"I'm very happy because we did the simple things and have made one step forward. At home it's very important to win.
Capello restored John Terry as captain and the Blues ace rewarded the Italian by heading home England's opener by guiding home David Beckham's free-kick.
Terry's club season ended on somewhat of a sour note following his UEFA Champions League disappointment and Capello was pleased he has not ended things on a high.
"I'm very happy for (Terry) and for England. It's very important for John to finish the season by scoring a goal," he concluded.
"He's a good captain, a leader and he played well today."

Because to be honest, I ent really sure anybody go ever locate Evans Wise...

nah CNMG and NCC is basically the same, because both government owned, and they upgrade their recording equipment, or at least does get their video from CNMG and rebroadcast it for sports that is lol. Because Ruskin does do commentary for NCC and CNMG now, they does just rebroadcast the recording on NCC with d same high quality from CNMG cameras. So the video go be clean, they go just use CNMG equipment.

Agree on Woodgate... an absolute terror who is yet to round back into form after a string of injuries the past couple seasons. Maybe he's a bit overrated, but that just means he will have that much more to prove that the HC.

DISENCHANTED
Yorke, Latas among embittered W/Cup heroes
(Trinidad Express)
Lasana Liburd
Thursday, May 29th 2008
The absences of 2006 World Cup captain Dwight Yorke and football icon Russell Latapy, a past national skipper, from the June 1 Centennial match against England at the Hasely Crawford Stadium is, according to a source, another indicator of the Trinidad and Tobago Football Federation's (T&TFF) poor relationship with its star players.
FIFA vice-president and T&TFF special advisor Jack Warner promised Yorke, T&T's most celebrated player, a 45 minute cameo for the exhibition match but his participation was eventually ruled out in mid-week. The Sunderland player and ex-Manchester United treble winner, according to the source, failed to agree on an appearance fee with the T&TFF while he was also unwilling to join the "Soca Warriors" in camp.
The 36-year-old player preferred to link up with the squad on the eve of the contest, which apparently did not go down well with the present technical staff headed by Colombian coach Francisco Maturana.
Latapy, who refused to even discuss the possibility of playing with T&TFF special advisor and FIFA vice-president Jack Warner, is understood to be furious at being passed over for the post of national coach. The 40-year-old Falkirk player initially refused to play under former coach Leo Beenhakker unless he was made an assistant coach but relented in time to help the Warriors book a place in the prestigious German tournament.
Both players were understood to have agreed different match contracts than their 21 teammates for the 2006 World Cup and, according to the source, are yet to be paid in full.
The T&TFF's 100-year existence is littered with such divisions between players and administrators.
Midfielder Leroy De Leon, the country's first international football star, refused to play in the 1974 World Cup qualifying campaign after growing disillusioned at the local governing body's failure to settle their debts to him. His gifted contemporaries, Everald "Gally" Cummings and Steve David also saw their international careers end on bitter terms unrelated to their ability on the field.
And, although there is expected to be a T&TFF tribute to Yorke on Sunday, his World Cup teammates are unhappy at their exclusions.
Thirty-year-old defender Brent Sancho, whose dreadlocks were infamously tugged before Peter Crouch scored the opener in England's 2-0 win in Germany, will gain admittance to the Hasely Crawford Stadium on June 1 but as a television commentator.
His World Cup counterparts, Densill Theobald, Chris Birchall, Ian Cox, Anthony Wolfe and Cyd Gray were left to source their own means of entry.
"I think it is disappointing," said Sancho, who was blacklisted after the World Cup and has not represented his country since the tournament. "You would think that we would have been invited for such a big occasion. And not just us but the 1991 (Under-21) and the 1974 teams and so on who also fought hard and did their nation proud."
Gray was even more forthright.
"I was trying to get a ticket but, if I don't get one, I won't go," said Gray. "I have no interest in paying to watch a game after what I did for this country."
Yorke and Latapy's unique talents have always enjoyed a degree of latitude from Warner who admitted to allowing them various perks including bookings in separate hotels to their teammates.
But Yorke refused to play in the 2007 CONCACAF Gold Cup without his blacklisted teammates and felt disenchanted enough to effectively rule himself out of Sunday's friendly although Warner instructed Maturana to play the star.
It is uncertain whether the absences of past and present football heroes would make any difference to the T&TFF's party on June 1.
T&T/England live on NCC Channel 4
Thursday, May 29th 2008
Local football fans will be able to view Sunday's Trinidad and Tobago versus England clash, at the Hasely Crawford Stadium, live on television, after it was announced yesterday that NCC Channel 4 are the exclusive rights holders.
Fans who are unable to procure tickets to the match or the pre-game show at the Jean Pierre Complex can have their match seats in front of their favourite television sets.
The English are due to arrive in T&T today. Tomorrow, some of their players will participate in a coaching clinic for 80 footballers between the ages of 8 and 15, at the Marvin Lee Stadium, Macoya, from 6 p.m.
English FA officials Claire Groves and Graeme White were expected to arrive in T&T yesterday.

What is the big deal about Crouch? We have seen worst. The only problem, is that he get away with the pul-dreadlocks.
fuh real. anyone remembers the extreme attitude of the Mexican fans towards our own Ancil Elcock for taking out their beloved Blanco ?
The man couldn't travel to Mexico for a while (not sure if he's been back since) and was getting death threats at his Trinidad home.

So whahappen farder, like maturana is ah rubber stamp ? like all them men on the team foot break ? please!! it's ah friendly, and nothing more . big deal if we lose and defoe and garreth run rings around we, that's expected , just like it was expected allmost 2 yrs ago.
we could use the experience and further more we have nothing to lose and every thing to gain. like yuh forgetting a few things.
we have a coveted playing in kenwyn who scored on england's best keepers, we have carlos who played against england before and frustrated them for 79 minuites.
like yuh forgetting stern, ah seasoned striker who had 19 goals this season, whitley who played against england in germany and had a great game,
like yuh forgetting that harry rednapp wanted hyland and guerra , and still do, yuh think if they was soft he would've bothered to attend ah hearing and go through all that trouble to secure them, doh forget darryl who played in the eridivise and buss up fayenord net,
remember clayton ince, a keeper on the same level as shaka, don't forget dennis lawrence who held down england & sweden and have a wealth of experience,
remember them youths is not the same clueless fellas who was at the gold cup, they have speed skill talent , and all they need is experience. i still believe we could hurt them without the big back four, and to france with their midfeild, we have one ah them too.

T&T/England live on NCC Channel 4.
Local football fans will be able to view Sunday's Trinidad and Tobago versus England clash, at the Hasely Crawford Stadium, live on television, after it was announced yesterday that NCC Channel 4 are the exclusive rights holders.

The English are due to arrive in T&T today. Tomorrow, some of their players will participate in a coaching clinic for 80 footballers between the ages of 8 and 15, at the Marvin Lee Stadium, Macoya, from 6 p.m. English FA officials Claire Groves and Graeme White were expected to arrive in T&T yesterday.

Rio still coming...
www.sports.yahoo.com
LONDON (TICKER) —Fabio Capello will jettison seven Champions League finalists for England’s friendly against Trinidad and Tobago on Sunday but still expects to see more improvement from his side.
It is anticipated only Rio Ferdinand, who has links in the Caribbean, and Wayne Bridge, who did not play in Moscow last week, will make the 10-hour journey, with the rest beginning their summer break one game early.
England will therefore look very different to the side which dispatched the USA comfortably enough at Wembley on Wednesday night as John Terry and Steven Gerrard grabbed the goals in a 2-0 win.
But, after probably the most polished performance of his three games in charge so far, Capello wants to see more of the same.
“I saw a lot of things that we were trying to do,” the Italian said. “There was a lot of movement. When we had a chance to play a long ball we did. When it was possible to pass the ball we did that too.
“I liked the way we pressed the ball. We did it quickly. We did not waste a lot of time winning the ball back. We need to score more goals, but we won and that was very important.”
Once the Trinidad encounter is out of the way, Capello can then work out his strategy for the World Cup qualifiers, which begin against Andorra in September.
Before that, England tackles the Czech Republic in a friendly on August 20, when Capello will introduce his permanent captain.
Ferdinand was believed to have moved into pole position but Terry’s excellent goal-scoring contribution - just seven days after his personal penalty shootout nightmare against Manchester United - may make the 61-year-old rethink his plans.
“It was important for John Terry to score,” Capello said. “He can go on his holiday happy now. The point is he is a leader both for Chelsea and also the national team.
“The captaincy will not be an easy decision and even in my own mind I do not know what the decision will be. But I will make my mind up and when I decide I will talk with the players.”

and while ya at it Kandi_TT, give he ah couple ah bitch slaps for me ;D
-
Good thing I didn't waste my money to go see this game... the T&T v Jamaica game might be a better bet to go see.
-
I doh find nutting wrong with the squad. I surprised Lampard get left tho...his spot in trouble cause Capello hardly see him and Barry getting another chance to impress.
I feel Gerrard only on d plane cause Capello want to see him on the left again.
Crouch and Ashton not playing together, is an either or for them but I feel in this game we will see Capello try a 4-3-3, with a target man through the middle. Meaning that Ashley Young and Abongahor will get a chance to run at our young wingbacks. That will be fun man...they young and strong, and wouldn't take beats like english defenders. But the lack of experience might do us in...
But them men hungry to make the side too, so they will play harder than the "A"TEAM.

Trinidad and Tobago v England
International Friendly
5.30pm (local time), Sunday 1 June 2008
Hasely Crawford Stadium, Port of Spain
Fabio Capello has trimmed his squad for the trip to Trinidad, with seven players involved for England in their 2-0 victory over USA not travelling.
Of the players involved in the Champions League Final for Manchester United and Chelsea, only the defensive pair Rio Ferdinand and Wayne Bridge will travel to the Port of Spain for the friendly on Sunday evening.
That means John Terry, Ashley Cole, Joe Cole, Frank Lampard, Owen Hargreaves, Wes Brown and Wayne Rooney will not make the trip.

Setanta & Fox acquire England FA football rights in US.
Fox Soccer Channel (FSC) and Setanta Sports have acquired broadcast rights in the United States for the English FA Cup and England’s national football team matches in a four-year deal with the English FA.
The deal covers the seasons 2008-09 to 2011-12, and includes live rights for the FA Community Shield; FA Cup matches, including the final; and England Senior and Under-21 national team home matches, including friendlies and 2010 World Cup qualifiers. FSC and Setanta will also have access to ancillary FA programming, including preview and review shows, archive matches, and magazine programmes.
Each broadcaster will show exclusive live matches on television under a rights-sharing agreement, which also provides for sharing of clips, internet rights and mobile rights. Both broadcasters will show the FA Cup Final live.
That covers their home matches. Any word on the June 1 game in the US? is Setanta showing it for sure?
Setanta Broadband (http://play.www.setanta.servecast.net/setanta/us/) is showing the game live on pay-per-view for $9.99US
but if they bringing in broadband it means that someone must be bringing the match live via a bar?
God is de BOSS...

It's not and shouldn't be just those who played football, but those who made a positive contribution to sport, regardless of the disicpline, thus the Larry Gomes Stadium, Ato Boldon Stadium, and Brian Lara Stadium (latter soon come).

Some of the odds:
11/2 Theo Walcott scores first for England
Most players are off on their holidays already but England have another friendly to play this Sunday against Caribbean World Cup heroes, Trinidad and Tobago. But let's face it, there are worse places to travel for a meaningless friendly at this time of the year.
After winning 2-0 at Wembley against the USA, Fabio Capello intends to field a different team in the Caribbean, the majority of the players who featured in the Champions League Final will not even travel. This gives the likes of Walcott, Crouch and Agbonlahor a chance to show the boss what they can do.
It’s no surprise that England are big 1/3 favourites to win this game, even if the starting XI will be drastically different from the team that started at Wembley. The two teams are no strangers to one another; in fact they last met in the last World Cup. England came away 2-0 winners that day, a repeat scoreline is 5/1 on Sunday.
Correct Score Betting
9/2 England 1-0
5/1 England 2-0
7/1 England 2-1
15/2 England 3-0
10/1 England 3-1
33/1 England 3-2
14/1 England 4-0
Win-Draw-Win
15/2 Trinidad & Tobago
3/1 Draw
1/3 England
Peter Crouch and Steven Gerrard scored the goals in Germany against Trinidad and Tobago. Gerrard played the entire 90 minutes on Wednesday so will more than likely be rested, but Crouch is a better bet. He’ll be fresh, has scored against the opposition before and also scored a hat-trick against their Caribbean neighbours Jamaica.
But Arsenal fans will be looking no further than Theo Walcott to make his full debut for England in this game, the young striker finished the season in great form for the Gunners and is great value in the betting for this game.
11/2 Walcott 1st goal
40/1 Walcott 1st goal and England win 3-0

Talking but bigger stadium is true. They coulld expand the stadium. About 10.000 more seats. Making the capacity to 32,000. And cover the whole damn thing. And also add more bathrooms for the ladies sake. If we want more women interested in participating as players and/or spectators, we need to take them into the utmost consideration.

True. It's like the giants stadium here in ny where the Red Bulls play. Ofcourse they wont sell out every seat. so they cover up unsold sections with covers that have huge ads (red bull ads) on them. So it comes like an alternate billboard. So when bigger selling matches (Like friendly internationals and NFL games on) they take off the covers.

Babalawo,
Talk to mr. Hunt!!!!

Even though England have announced a weakened team against TNT, I still expect them to defeat TNT by 3 clear goals.....they should have beaten the USA more comfortably than the 2-0 score indicate.

Probably b/c we can't afford that luxury yet... our stadia have to be multi-use at this stage of the game.

Gunman,
25 yrs ago we needed a football only main stadium. Club ball was vibrant. Not now. Like somebody mentioned before, the pro-teams can barely muster 2000 a game. For and all the folks of the bygone era, that is unbelivable and UNACCEPTABLE.
TT football WILL NOT GO ANYWHERE WITHOUT THE REVIVAL of club football. The pro-league is a good organisation. Dexter trying real hard. Bless him. But futebol in TT is dead. allyuh know where this leading up too.

Not baddddddddd atal. Somebody sent it 2 Sky Sports
They were featuring the pitch on Sky Sports yesterday and catchin real kicks....for some reason they didnt think it was up to Wembley standard :D

Yes but as I have said earlier if these same players were making a living right there in TnT they would have been selected.
It is just BAD mind on Jackulas part to NOT PAY their flights home.
The ones he has chosen are tied in with his Buddies Mike Berry and Cornmeals.

Expect a 3-1 victory for TT minimum.
Capello job could be in jeopardy after this game.

I think they were working on getting it ready in time.
They just cut the grass the other day...and they have it on the BRIGHTEST
-
And dont collect six like our boyz did at Wembley in the lead up to the 2006 World Cup (albeit from a much stronger England side). and see you guys next Sunday in POS.
But didn't that same strong side beat you 6-0 and beat T&T 2-0 in the world cup ? so whats your point....
-
i feelin a positive vibes for this match..i dont see why we hadda resign ourselves to a loss...england is nutten special...liverpool barnsely anyting can happen...i mor interested in seeing how our midfield and defense performs win lose or draw but i relly think we can pull off a win..stern bound to score at least ah double..

i dey ..even though i aint play football in ages i still have enough to tun up touches

Probably cuz grass keeps photosynthesising once there is light present. Once fertilizer and water being supplied with light...it go ketch. I dunno if thats their reason...buh thats one good side benefit.
As i said...we doh have nuttin to loose in this game. IF we loose...is england...dey supposed to beat us...if we win...we beat england. Plus England players trying to solidify a starting spot....our players have an opportunity at getting some trials arranged.

what is your prediction...... and that is what you really think will be the score not what your want to happen ?

But we really going and win 5-0 ;D

T&T vs England Preview

Fabio Capello
(http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2008/05/30/article-1023033-003DED3200000258-258_224x423.jpg)
Francisco Maturana[/b]
Trinidad & Tobago v England: Head to head.
By: Dailymail.
England play the second of their double header of close-season friendlies in tropical climes as manager Fabio Capello continues to get to know his team. Sportsmail sees how the Italian's side match up with their opponents and looks at the managers, recent form and key players.
MANAGERS
Capello's appointment as England boss may not have ticked all of the idealists' boxes - an English coach still being the preference - but he scores heavily in terms of experience and successes.
He is one of Italy's most revered coaches following his many years at the top with AC Milan, Roma and Juventus - a time in which he collected a handful of Scudettos, a Champions League winners' medal and four domestic cups.
Capello also tasted success when moving to Spain, bringing home two league titles for Real Madrid, although his dramatic stewardship of the La Liga title-winning campaign in 2007 was not enough to save his job.
Trinidad and Tobago's Colombian coach Francisco Maturana is a journeyman manager, lacking in neither experience nor diversity.
He has enjoyed several stints with Colombia's national team, winning the Copa America in 2001, as well as tasting success in the Copa Libertadores and Asian Champions League at club level.
RECENT FORM
England have now had three matches under Capello. A 2-0 victory over Switzerland was followed by the 1-0 defeat against France, which will be remembered more for David Beckham's 100th cap than the standard of football ushered in by the incoming boss.
Capello's last game saw another 2-0 victory, this time over the United States at Wembley thanks to goals from John Terry and Steven Gerrard. But, more worryingly, the vast majority of players involved in Capello's early squads are those tainted by the humiliating failure to qualify for the forthcoming European Championship.
Few, if any, of the established stars came through the campaign with reputations enhanced and their recent disappointments in England colours are well documented. Their opponents, meanwhile, are undefeated since Maturana's arrival.
This match will be comfortably their toughest under the Colombian, but wins over El Salvador, Grenada and Barbados as well as draws with Guadeloupe and away to Jamaica mean they have a proud record to defend.
PLAYERS
While Capello is sure to mould the team in his own image as his tenure continues, he is currently largely reliant on the same players as his two immediate predecessors.
On paper, of course, that is an enviable roster, although seven players involved in last week's Champions League final have been excused from the trip.
Of the men involved in Moscow only Rio Ferdinand, who has links with the Caribbean, and Chelsea full-back Wayne Bridge, who did not get onto the pitch at the Luzhniki Stadium, will be part of the 20-man squad for the match.
Chelsea's John Terry is one of those given an early holiday along with Wayne Rooney, Owen Hargreaves, Wes Brown, Ashley Cole, Frank Lampard and Joe Cole. But Steven Gerrard is included a squad also containing FA Cup winner David James and the ubiquitous Beckham.
T&T's Dwight Yorke is a player who once travelled in similar orbits, but his international career is over. Instead the country's leading lights include Sunderland duo Carlos Edwards and Kenwyne Jones and the well-travelled Southampton striker Stern John.
There are a large number of home-based players unfamiliar to the British audience, while the likes of Dennis Lawrence and Clayton Ince may be known only to lower league fans.
Trinidad & Tobago v England: Key battles
Fabio Capello takes his England side to the Caribbean for Sunday's friendly against Trinidad and Tobago as they prepare for the autumn World Cup qualifiers. Sportsmail considers some of the key battles which could be contested.
DENNIS LAWRENCE V DEAN ASHTON
(http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2008/05/30/article-1023059-04AF7E050000044D-717_224x423.jpg)
(http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2008/05/30/article-1023059-0168F74700000578-5_224x423.jpg)
Former Wrexham defender Lawrence has enjoyed a brilliant league season in Britain as current club Swansea secured promotion to the Coca-Cola Championship. The tall centre-half, an international veteran having represented Trinidad and Tobago at the 2006 World Cup in Germany, could find himself up against England rookie Dean Ashton should the powerful but skilful West Ham striker finally earn his first cap. Ashton has been in line to make his debut three times, but injuries ended his hopes twice before he missed out to Jermain Defoe on Wednesday against the USA.
AURTIS WHITLEY V GARETH BARRY
(http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2008/05/30/article-1023059-04BD33E60000044D-901_224x423.jpg)
(http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2008/05/30/article-1023059-001C44D5000004B0-698_224x423.jpg)
Soca Warriors captain Whitley has been an integral member of the national team for a number of years, proving inspirational in their successful qualifying campaign for the 2006 World Cup. A leader by both example and communication, he acts as the team's pivot both going forward and protecting the defence. While he is a seasoned international campaigner, his probable opposite number on Sunday, Gareth Barry, is at long last establishing himself for England after a series of cultured displays.
KENWYNE JONES V JONATHAN WOODGATE
(http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2008/05/30/article-1023059-02351F65000004B0-820_224x423.jpg)
(http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2008/05/30/article-1023059-0010659300000578-507_224x423.jpg)
Jones' success in the Premier League has been celebrated in his homeland just as much as in Sunderland, where the big striker made an excellent impression upon his arrival from Southampton. A fantastic all-rounder, Jones' aerial skills are undoubtedly his biggest attribute. Woodgate and fellow Middlesbrough lad David Wheater are likely to be in contention for rare starts as the former Real Madrid defender attempts to finally kick-start his international career.

Raring to go: Kenwyne Jones has recovered from injury and is in Trinidad & Tobago's squad on Sunday. ... More. (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-1023072/Jones-gunning-revenge-England-declaring-fit-Trinidad-amp-Tobago-friendly.html)

Maybe...I dunno.
DHW... it really need upgrading in truth eh, and yeah it will look much better covered. It would help too if we could have extended temporary seating to the pitch (over the tracks), but I understand why that may not be feasible. I kinda have to take back what ah said in another thread and agree with the fella who suggests that is time we get ah football only stadium.

If u really interested PM me, and we can make arrangements go get the tickets to you
Thank you
-
woulda real like to be there jed...
I seeing ppls posting some vids. Anyone happen to get any footage of the keepers at work??
Woulda real like to see the drills they were doing and jus the Goalkeepers in action on a whole
anyone?
-
900 for 1 u say there???
-
i have a uncovered still to sell...what it goin for now?
-
I don't know about all yuh.
but it kinda surreal seeing those guys training in OUR stadium.
It's different to actually recognise the environment.
And yea, having travelled to various stadia, ours really looks dwarfed.
As for the argument for a pure footballing stadium; still don't think it's feasible. But I do think the HCL could do with a major upgrade of all facilities, from media to dressing rooms, catering, and perhaps a seating increasing by 10,000 for the time being.
I mean it really is over two and a half decades since it was built.

Caribbean adventure

The England C squad arrived in Grenada on Tuesday night in preparation for the first fixture on their Caribbean tour, against Grenada on Saturday afternoon.
After successfully defending the Four Nations tournament in Wales last week, manager Paul Fairclough gave his squad the chance to spend a little time relaxing around the hotel pool and on the beach.
On Wednesday afternoon the team staff travelled to the north of the island to carry out a coaching clinic for local youngsters. The session was attended by 20 teenagers who all enjoyed the experience. So too did a host of small children who arrived during the session.
Following the session, the group handed out replica England kits to the children, much to their delight.
On Thursday, following a session carried out in association with the Jason Roberts Foundation, the squad trained in preparation for the Grenada fixture at La Sagesse cricket ground. The session was a strenuous affair with the players keen to shake off their rustiness.
Fairclough is pleased with the trip so far, and said he was particularly pleased with the attitude of the squad.
“This is a big learning curve for the players, both in terms of their mental approach to the conditions and the environment” he said.
“The match tomorrow afternoon is a big unknown for everyone. We are expecting a tough 90 minutes, especially with regard to the heat. The players have been well prepared by the medical staff and we are hopeful of continuing our excellent run.”
The players will be relaxing this morning on a boat trip before their final training session this afternoon in the National Stadium in St George’s.

Im sure its been asked but I feeling lazy to search-
Will the game be shown on TV here in New York???
-
I think we may end up having to resort to playing long balls from the back. Our left side will be especially weak and we gonna struggle with beckham long cross balls. Gerards balls into the corner will especially be troublesome.
We may have to play low pressure from the second 18 or so.

Any where in DC showing de game?

Small Mag,
Nice pics. It is nice to see the people out there for the practice session. When TT have a big games we all realize how small the stadium is. That is because everybody want to see the superstars. 30-40 thousand want to say I see Beckham play etc.
As far as Lara staium is concern, that is exclusively for cricket. It only holds 15,000. And as I said before, the BLS is Manning's gift to the South. North has the QPO, South has Guaracara with is not up to international standards. To be honest nothing wrong with that.
As far as football only stadium. That would be nice. Where will it be built. There is no more room for sports facilities in POS. All empty spaces are for Office buildings, condos, hotels. Jack can also get a vaps and tief some money from FIFA and expand his stadium to 40,000.
Will they want to conververt HCS to football only and use Larry Gomes or Ato for all T& F meets. They can buld a small 10.000. T&F stadium on the aux. field next to HCS for T&F in the POS environs.
Like I said before, HCS can be expanded on the western side to about 35,000 or maybe 40,000.

I haven’t seen any mention of someone recording the game and making it available. For a while now I have been on a business trip (today I am in N.Y) and would not get back to Cali until late Sunday night. It would be nice if someone can make a copy of the game available for download. That notwithstanding it seems as though the game will be available on Setanta on Monday.

Like I said before, HCS can be expanded on the western side to about 35,000 or maybe 40,000.
they doh have to do that...they just have to add multi-level seating. Besides, I doubt capacity is an issue...they hardly ever sell out as is. They need to cover all the seats...upgrade the locker rooms...get rid of the track, get a professional groundskeeping crew....not one man in ah pair ah rubber slippers and ah push mower.
ridiculous.

Like I said before, HCS can be expanded on the western side to about 35,000 or maybe 40,000.
they doh have to do that...they just have to add multi-level seating. Besides, I doubt capacity is an issue...they hardly ever sell out as is. They need to cover all the seats...upgrade the locker rooms...get rid of the track, get a professional groundskeeping crew....not one man in ah pair ah rubber slippers and ah push mower.
ridiculous.
and they aint go never remove that track, Is Hasely the thing name after :(

just imagine ya could tell ya pardnas that BECKS tie up ya Togs :o
dem youngsters having a GREAT time...looks like Becks had a good time as well.
what an AWESOME experience
well done organisors :applause: :applause: :applause: :applause:
F PATT should organise something similar with OUR Heroes.
-
I doh care what drama go down...who get money, who ent get money, who raise rent money...who now have tuh pay money.... seeing the look on the faces of those yutes frolicking with Becks that means the world right there. Once in a lifetime opportunity, something to take with them the rest of their lives. Beck is boss...a clear natural with the kids.
I'z ah man does give props when props due...kudos to the TTFF and the FA for arranging that li'l sumting for the kids :beermug:
-
As for the HC...nice birdseye from Getty, but what a joke to have that as our National Stadium. That mighta been state of the (caribbean) art 25 yrs ago, but come on man.
Perhaps daz why dey buildin de Brian Lara Stadium?
Maybe...I dunno.
that was me shark.... look at the nice football stadium in Costa Rica, that is ah real nice stadium.... it eh have to be real big, but ah good 30 to 40000 seater go be nice. That is what they shoulda build at the center of excelence... emagine if that wash the name of a dedicated football stadium boy.
DHW... it really need upgrading in truth eh, and yeah it will look much better covered. It would help too if we could have extended temporary seating to the pitch (over the tracks), but I understand why that may not be feasible. I kinda have to take back what ah said in another thread and agree with the fella who suggests that is time we get ah football only stadium.

Agreed, we really doh need a huge stadium...look around MLS and look at the types of stadia they building, seating 20,000-30,000 seaters. Now some would say that MLS is one thing, ah "national" stadium is another...but unless we selling it out regular, say nothing about the trouble in finding some suitable venue that would allow us build such a behemoth...then I don't really see the need for anything greater than a 30,000-35,000 capacity stadium.
Something nice...covered...fans right up on the pitch so that yuh ent feel yuh watching de match from ah mile away. Make it inviting to fans and intimidating to visiting teams. I'm sure there are many involved in football who would like this too...so hopefully all in due time.
-
Any where in DC showing de game?
yow breads. it looks like lucky bar in dc showin it. if so, tha is where I goin

Nice pics big up Becks

AZZURRI said he had one...

Wha de arse is dis?..So we betting in here now.. :rotfl:

The man say he get his tickets from the TTFF, Richard Groden organize the ticket and he pick them up at the TTFF office. Alyuh check yuh ticket. Anything with 4 number code seems to be bogus.
Stress.

I eh know if it ever had a more accomodating superstar in any sport dan David Beckham nah.
Ah mean, we all know de fella is far from de greatest footballer but dem pics does jes give yuh a glimpse of why he so popular worldwide. Dat scene does be recreated EVERYWHERE he go, no matter where in de world he is.
De man like he does tek de time to sign every autograph request (physically impossible yes, but it appear so nonetheless), smile and interact wit everybody and jes look like he havin FUN.
Me eh know David Beckham personally, but I have a lot of respeck fuh de guy. He appears to be a genuinely NICE person. I cyah even dream of doin wha he does do on a daily basis. I woulda done leggo 2 cuss word after bout 10 minutes a people houndin me fuh autograph.
Respeck Mr Beckham. Yuh Large!
-
I wonder if he have he bill
-
Well said Palosssssss dat is y he sooooooooo popular he knows how 2 pull at d heart strings
-
I wonder if he have he bill
lol good one, as if they giving yuh bill :devil: :devil:
-
Yes we got receipts
-
like ah fella wuh ah lil coil tuh stookie ras..lol
-
Wait nah, that's not one of Warner ads he put up free there !!?!
haha. it in COE too for those other games we played...look like it get the same exact position behind the goal.
The "group of companies" part small small so is mostly his name people is see :rotfl:
As for the digital cable....I believe places that never had cable before could end up getting digital before places that have analog because it cheaper and faster to put down new lines compared to replacing an existing network. It have places in parts of south with digital where parts of POS still have analog. Up till June 30th have free installation if your area have it yet...I surprise blink hasn't dropped their prices or change their offerings at least. I did a webcam thing with someone who has blink and well....lets just say I think their 256k/256k blink connection wasn't as fast as the flow 2MB/256k...wasn't bad and to be honest everybody going from dial up so just about everybody saying their own "fast".
A live webcam stream (instead of the expensive camera) using Media Encoder could give a good over view of what going on from early in the day and afterward... in addition to TV feeds. Cud see what going on around the area......o well :devil:

Crouch has the record to make England reign in Port of Spain (http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2008/may/30/englandfootballteam3)
An England victory is a foregone conclusion for the bookies so go for correct scoreline and first scorer
Dan Roebuck
The Guardian (http://www.guardian.co.uk/football), Friday May 30 2008
Without any home-nation involvement in Euro 2008, turnover was high for England's winning, if at times dull, display against the United States. The 2-0 result and generally solid performance will ensure interest in the markets for the final game of the season for Fabio Capello's team against Trinidad & Tobago on Sunday.
Even a comprehensive England victory, however, is unlikely to force a change in the betting for their World Cup chances in 2010. They are chronically short at 6-5 (Sky Bet) to win Group Six - with their conquerors in European Championship qualifying, Croatia, inexplicably longer at 7-4 (Paddy Power and Totesport) - and are fifth favourites at 12-1 (general) to win the tournament in South Africa. Ridiculously, in the outright market they are ahead of France, who at a freely available 16-1 look a fair long-term investment.
The routine victory at Wembley was achieved with a starting XI that could arguably have been described as England's strongest possible for the fixture. But with the majority of players who were on Champions League final duty last week dropping out of the travelling party to Port of Spain, the team to face the Soca Warriors will be very different.
England, however, are prohibitively priced at 2-5 (Ladbrokes) to win at Hasely Crawford Stadium, with Francisco Maturana's team 8-1 (general) and the draw 4-1 (general). None of the match prices has much appeal but there could be some value in the correct-score market.
The last time the two sides met, in the 2006 World Cup finals, England were 2-0 winners and that scoreline, along with 1-0, looks the best punt. Available at 11-2 (Totesport) and 6-1 (general) respectively (for combined odds of just under 5-2), 11 of England's past 27 wins have been by those scorelines. Those who want to hedge their bets even further can include a 3-0 England win at 10-1 (Ladbrokes), giving combined odds for all three scores of slightly better than 6-4. If you don't want the hassle of splitting your stakes Boylesports quotes England as 10-11 to win "to nil".
It is always difficult to compare the form of teams from different continents but it is safe to say England's poor results in qualification for the Euro 2008 finals and one defeat in three games under Capello are still better than their hosts have achieved. Trinidad & Tobago did not win a single game at last year's Gold Cup and their better record in 2008, with victories against El Salvador, Grenada and Barbados, is eclipsed by the stature of England's opponents. But they are unbeaten under Maturana, a coach who won the Copa América with Colombia in 2001, so England will perhaps have to be patient before making the breakthrough. Blue Square offers 7-2 the first goal of the game is scored between the 31st and 45th minute inclusive, as it was on Wednesday.
Steven Gerrard's man-of-the-match performance against the United States will have many punters looking to back him at 7-1 (Ladbrokes) to be the first goalscorer on Sunday. But a better bet might be Peter Crouch at a standout 6-1 with Ladbrokes (some firms have him at 7-2). The Liverpool striker is yet to start a game under Capello but should do so in Wayne Rooney and Michael Owen's absence. Seven of his 12 international goals have come in friendlies, including three against Jamaica before the 2006 World Cup. He also scored the opener the last time England played Trinidad and William Hill offers 6-4 he scores at any time in the match.
Gerrard may captain this team but the layers think he will not lead the side out for the first competitive international of Capello's reign. Ladbrokes reckons John Terry will wear the armband against Andorra in September and has shortened its price from 7-4 to evens. Rio Ferdinand is 5-4 and Gerrard 5-1 (Ladbrokes).
Hill's is obviously impressed with the contribution of the second-half substitute David Bentley at Wembley and makes the Blackburn midfielder 8-11 to start England's World Cup qualifier against Andorra, pushing out David Beckham to 11-10. Jermain Defoe's failure to convert the chances that came his way into goals, by contrast, has seen his odds drift to 9-4 with Hill's that he starts against the principality in the match in Barcelona. Owen is 2-5 to make the starting line-up.
Selections
England to defeat Trinidad & Tobago 1-0 in Sunday's match at Hasely Crawford Stadium at 11-2 (Totesport)
England to win the match 2-0 at 6-1 (general)
Peter Crouch to score the first goal of the game in Port of Spain at 6-1 (Ladbrokes)

The man say he get his tickets from the TTFF, Richard Groden organize the ticket and he pick them up at the TTFF office.
He said the third party picked it up from the TTFF office...he didn't pick it up from the TTFF office directly. He said the third party (unnamed) was some official partner of the TTFF.

This thing broadcasting on NCC4 or not?
The ad for the Lunch and Lime fete in Jean Pierre says that it broadcasting the game live exclusively.

I glad for the Kids, once in a lifetime opportunity they get there, hope it inspires them to continue to put in d hard work to get better.......This is where Becks always gets my respect, he does this everywhere he goes, maybe he can persuade adidas to open a beckham coaching clinic in trinidad just like he has in england, asia and usa, they already sponsor T&T so it wont be ah big seen.

Now that I’m really thinking about it; we playing England oh gosh! They go make sure that they hooligan fans who couldn’t make it to Trinidad could see it live via internet. So the only problem is to find the links.

Very simple
Jackula and his cronies are ONLY interested in MAKING GINKCUF MONEY
they are NOT interested in Football and the PLAYERS
If they were interested in Football and Players they would have had a function where they would have INVITED ALL players, who have ever represented TnT who are STILL alive, to come and celebrate the 100 years of football in TnT...............
just look at those pictures in that other thread
NOT ONE PICTURE of OUR HEROES with OUR YOUTH.......SAD INDEED
simple,
Just my humble opinion

but over the years, i couldnt help but develop a big respect for him as a person and for the way he does conduct heself. ah must say these pics here really warm meh up. Especially because on the surface, everybody knows this session is just a chore which they have to do because of the wims and fancies of the federations, and surely many of those english players prefer to be on vacation.
But look how genuine becks is with the youths and them.. for all you know he change some of them youthmen lives forever and like brownsugar say, they go be sleeping with they tugs on in the night. A definite once in a lifetime experience and one to tell the kids.
large big up beckham.

Beckham handed England captaincy
TRINIDAD & TOBAGO v ENGLAND
Venue: Hasely Crawford Stadium, Port of Spain
Date: Sunday, 1 June Kick-off: 2230 BST
Coverage: Live on BBC ONE, BBC Radio 5 Live/online
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Beckham appears to have won over Capello again
David Beckham has been named England captain for Sunday's friendly against Trinidad & Tobago.
It is a remarkable turnaround for the 33-year-old who stepped down as skipper after the 2006 World Cup and was then dropped by former boss Steve McClaren.
The midfielder did regain his place under McClaren but was then made to wait for his 100th cap when current manager Fabio Capello took charge.
Rio Ferdinand, Steven Gerrard and John Terry were Capello's previous skippers.
The Italian is rotating the captaincy among his players before he makes a permanent decision.
Capello said: "When I took over as manager I decided to choose a different captain for each game, and David was on one of the four players I thought of.
"David will be the last captain - but only for this game.
"He played very well against USA in the first half and he starts as captain in the next game. But it is impossible to know what will happen in the future."
Beckham will lead the team out for the 59th time on Sunday and is likely to take charge of an inexperienced England team.
Some of the younger squad members may be given the chance to impress as seven players involved in the Champions League final between Chelsea and Manchester United - including Terry and Wayne Rooney - have stayed behind.
I have a few more wrinkles now but I still feel I can do what I did 10 years ago
David Beckham
Capello has had concerns over Beckham's fitness and the fact that he now plays his football in the USA with LA Galaxy.
Asked if he had changed his mind about Beckham, Capello replied: "No, I know David very well because I had him with me at Real Madrid.
"We had some problems there at the start but he was very important for me there at the end of our time."
However, Beckham's recent performances will have no doubt put him back in Capello's thoughts for England's World Cup qualifying campaign next season.
Particularly when he set up the opener in the recent 2-0 win against the USA, delivering a precise free-kick for Terry to head in.
Beckham said: "People will always question whether I can still play at this level but I want to carry on. I am not ready to stop playing for my country.
"I have a few more wrinkles now but I still feel I can do what I did 10 years ago.
"I was happy with my performance against France in March, my first game under Fabio Capello, and it was the same against the United States the other night.
606: DEBATE
I just despair at this news, what is going on?
Crazy Cesc & his doughnut disco!
"I was happy to set up the opening goal. I can bring a lot more to the team than set pieces but it is one of my strongest things that I can do in the game.
"There is always a chance if I get a set piece that I'll put it in the right place for someone to score."
Ferdinand had been thought to be in pole position to take the captain's armband on a permanent basis after his efforts for Manchester United in their double-winning campaign.
But the defender, who led England against France in March, remains cautious.
"It's down to the manager, he has said he will make his decision next season so we will all be waiting to hear what he has to say," he said.
"Who wouldn't want to be captain of their country? There are four or five of us vying to become that.
"Whoever gets the responsibility of being captain, it will be a proud moment for him and his family and all the lads will get behind it."
Might ben a couple screamers past Ince after dis one... :rotfl:

Int Football - Becks given armband in Caribbean
Eurosport - Sat, 31 May 18:26:00 2008
David Beckham has been given back the captain's armband for England's friendly against Trinidad and Tobago in Port of Spain.
More StoriesTrinidad and Tobago v England: predicted line-ups
Warner hopes for England legacy
The 33-year-old midfielder had doubts over his international future since the last World Cup and even after winning a place back in the squad was then made to wait for his 100th cap when Fabio Capello took charge.
Capello has been looking at who his permanent captain will be and has given the armband to Rio Ferdinand, Steven Gerrard, John Terry and will now give Beckham his 59th game as skipper.
The move could be interpreted as a means of winning favour with FIFA vice-president Jack Warner, who holds an important vote in the process of England's 2018 World Cup bid.
Beckham has been cheered and given the warmest welcome of England's players in the Caribbean and at open training and a coaching clinic fans chanted his name.
Leading England out of the tunnel at Hasely Crawford Stadium would be seen as a perfect start to the match to mark the centenary of football in Trinidad and Tobago.
Beckham has also recently shown Capello he could have a role in World Cup qualifiers next season - he set up the opener against the USA with a set-piece when chances were proving difficult to create.
Although his free-kicks and corners have never been in doubt, the quality of MLS football has often been questioned. Beckham has a match against Colorado Rapids next weekend when his England team-mates will be on holiday.
"Everyone knows it is one of the biggest honours you can be given as football player to captain your country, or even to play for your country," said Beckham.

I know in the UK its showing on BBC1. I hear it's on NCC-TV in tnt so that means no internet stream.. only option is setenta premium in a bar I guess?
This is stupidness, i could get stanford 20/20 on satellite but cyar get a tnt/england game..

leh we stay quiet till he elaborates on his statement. ;D
-
Dose anyone has a definitive answer as to what site is broadcasting live? I am looking for viewing ability from the US. ???
-
I don't see any discrimination.
What I inferred from his statement was he wants the local stars to get the same sort of response from the public that the English players have gotten and the same sort of courtesies extended to them by the federation and the media.
I personally don't think they deserve any less.

I see on this thread that some pub in South Beach might be showing de game. Are there any other venues that maybe showing the game either from Miami/Broward/"Ft. Rockadale"?

I don't see what the big deal is... the local players are not celebrities, the local players are everyday Joes who happen to kick ball. Dem men ent go have throngs of adoring fans following they every move...and I sure dat is exactly how some ah dem want it. Dem men home tizic about the English team b/c is not everyday they will get to see world famous celebrities...men who at the top in their sport up close and personal.
Same applies to men on the board here... they happy to see foreign stars go TnT and having ah time, that doh mean they not behind de Warriors. TTFF host ah 'meet n greet' fun de kids with de foreign stars so dai'z why we seeing they pics all over de place. Many of these pics were taken off Reuters website and posted here...with one or two actually taken by locals. If any complaint, take it up with Reuters or send Fuentes Fido ah message, ent he's de TTFF "media officer"?
-
I know i woulda ketch allyuh with the word discrimination". ;D It don't only applies to race, it was applied to the coverage we boys getting when local trini's does 'go ah fool' when they see foreigners as if they are gods :rotfl:

I don't think it's a purely media exposure issue, cuz yea it was basically an advert for the FA, etc and was broadcast more on int'l networks.
What I think some are a bit dismayed at is the fact that these meet and greets should also be organised with our local footballers as well. I mean who better to have a kickabout with than a player who went to your school or who lived in your area and now making it big in the premiership. To me thats much more identifiable.
It's what men like Essien and Drogba them have been invited to do back in Africa.
I don't have any problem with the England players doing what they've been invited to do with the youths. As stated by many, it's very admirable and heartwarming esp considering the fact that the majority of those players would rather be on vacation than playing a political game.
But yea, the federation is to blame

Babalawo nah, men understand what yuh mean...we just doh think de local-based getting 'discriminated' against. You self doh lie...you know long time when Apollon and Thunderbolt Williams reach in de ring yuh remain in yuh seat, but soon as Ric Flair and Lex Luther roll up yuh stand up and bawl like ah school girl ;D

I think we all know the TTFF ent have the type of relationship with these players (nor arguably, the interest) to promote these types of casual interactions with fans....and agreed they should be done. But look at the sequence of the grousing in here doh...ment start carping about not seeing pics of the local-based, so in that regard I'd have to disagree and say their beef is about the disparity in coverage, and the fact that forumites only commenting on the England team.

I don't have any problem with the England players doing what they've been invited to do with the youths. As stated by many, it's very admirable and heartwarming esp considering the fact that the majority of those players would rather be on vacation than playing a political game.
But yea, the federation is to blame
I think we all know the TTFF ent have the type of relationship with these players (nor arguably, the interest) to promote these types of casual interactions with fans....and agreed they should be done. But look at the sequence of the grousing in here doh...ment start carping about not seeing pics of the local-based, so in that regard I'd have to disagree and say their beef is about the disparity in coverage, and the fact that forumites only commenting on the England team.
I understand what many of the forumites talking about, but I'm talking about something different. I don't care to see it splashed across the papers and tv, but I just want to know it's happening.
And in that respect, I'm not talking about casual interaction with fans, but about our local stars working with our young footballers at all levels, but I guess it's something negotiated in contracts with EPL players to be available for various such events X amt of hrs per week for their clubs and also on behalf of the FA for England and therefore they're accustomed to it.
I guess we don't have a similar structure in the PFL to do that (lol, understatement) and the foreign players tend to be home on 'official duty' only beifly, but I guess what i'm talking about is perhaps wishful thinking.

I know i woulda ketch allyuh with the word discrimination". ;D It don't only applies to race, it was applied to the coverage we boys getting when local trini's does 'go ah fool' when they see foreigners as if they are gods :rotfl:
yeah ya ketch meh.......
My take on this whole
"100 years of Football in TnT"
is totally MISSING the mark
The TTFF SHOULD have had a function with all players who have represented TnT over the years if in FACT this whole thing is to Celebrate "100 years of Football in TnT"
any way it is REALLY great to see Becks having fun with the local youths.
Good job Organisers.

The game is on setanta broadband (http://play.www.setanta.servecast.net/setanta/us/default.aspx?aff=1) for $9.99.
A steal of a deal if you consider the price to see it live back home (or to drive somewhere to see it, in these days of 4.00/gal gas).
It is rare for us to get a TnT home game live on the net so I am not missing th eopportunity or taking chances with free streams, the headache and uncertainty just isn't worth $10.00.
Plus you will get top quality and not have to woory about whether the stream will last and don't have to install any p2p software.

Ray appollon was the fackin MAN!! he used to wrestle when wrestling was real, when fellas was getting hard slap and high fall, break foot, choke out, and all that went with wrestling back then.
ray appollon had the hardest head in the world ! one dogone coconut and is blood all over the place , that's how he won most of his fights, with some serious coconut ( head butt).
i went to school with his son, fernando and would some times visit their gym in belmont, he was about 3 yrs younger than me but boy that red man was strong as an ox.
thunder bolt williams was another beast, that's the strongest human being i've ever seen, but that's ah whole other topic. positive.

TEAM SPIRIT: Trinidad and Tobago national team footballers embrace each other at yesterday's training session at the Hasely Crawford Stadium, where they take on England from 5.30 p.m. today in a friendly international. -Photos: Jermaine Cruickshank
Imagine the reception T&T got in Rotenburg before the last time they met England. Now all we got is two grainy black and white photos in this thread.

Ray appollon was the fackin MAN!! he used to wrestle when wrestling was real, when fellas was getting hard slap and high fall, break foot, choke out, and all that went with wrestling back then.
ray appollon had the hardest head in the world ! one dogone coconut and is blood all over the place , that's how he won most of his fights, with some serious coconut ( head butt).
i went to school with his son, fernando and would some times visit their gym in belmont, he was about 3 yrs younger than me but boy that red man was strong as an ox.
thunder bolt williams was another beast, that's the strongest human being i've ever seen, but that's ah whole other topic. positive.
I decide I was just going tuh leave it alone since it apparently went over dey heads. I happen to ketch Ray Apollon and Thunderbolt Williams at the end of their careers when I was in primary school...thanks to my mother them was my introduction to professional wrestling. To dis day that woman is ah diehard wrestling peong...cyah tell she nutten 'bout dat ting being fake.
Me eh even old self...yet sad that men under me ent even know who some of these national sporting heroes are. Ah wonder if they ever hear of Jovica...or "Butcher"? Anyways...dai'z fuh another thread.

Formites,
Is only cause I wake up early this morning I hitting alyuh this one.
I EXCITED. I twitching like spranger...imagine, I wake up after a full afternoon/evening/night of rum and beers.... earlier than if I was going to work without a alarm.
So yes unto the sweat. This was supposed to be a big grand affair. The local WN members had organized grounds, interacted with the ENglish FA fans association, Blacklisted players, Corporate sponsors and this ting was supposed to be a real big bram.
Unfortunately, due to circumstances we scaled it down...and I thank all those who turned up or made the effort to attend.
Thank you to Brown Sugar, Weary, DCS, Patriot, Spideybuff, Kandi-tt and all of the other members of the org committee.
I will say I am not surprised by posters ducking out, saying they coming, grandcharging that they bringing X, Y or Z only to remain hush hush and be a NO SHOW on the date. But with 4 SW sweat under my belt I was not in the least surprised and expected this same sort of thing. But cool scene alyuh will make up next sweat!
The proceeding started off a bit late, I arrived with Girl Warrior around 3:30 but quite a few members were already there looking for shade amongst the trees opposite St Clair.
We waited for a while then when we got enough "players" a group of us, Reaper2004, Swima, Morvant and Myself flipped some hockey post around and sweat was started. So in effect it was a big small goal. We decided not to have a keeper and the last defender will not be able to use his/her hands so it would be a free flowing game.
Sun was real hot....real hot be we start off playing 5 vs 6. The white 5 was G, Swima, Morvant, Duscam and Myself. vs the reds, Small Mag, Jay 10, Reaper 2004, Spideybuff, DWN and Jefferz. Later on Doc came and joined the whites to make it 6 v 6.
Now as a active participant it kinda hard to observe and remeber all the details. But Whites score first tru duscam. Then we say we going and use the strategy of waiting for them...sucking them out and lighting long range bullet. It kinda work...just our shooting collectively was off.
However it was always a see saw battle with Red answering each goal that we scored. Small Magician was loafing up top and scored a creditable 8 of his teams nine goals. However just like the #14 Jersey he was wearing...he miss the easy ones, his touch let him down when it mattered, he scruffle some shot and get some kinda panty goals...but quiet quiet the youth rack up goal after goal, smiling easy easy and keeping the reds into the game. Small M was actually a front runner for Man of the Match on his impressive strike rate.
Honestly after the opening 5 min everybody was bun. Reds start to hit we a long ball. Whites knock kinda fizzle out but two things on the white team remained constant....Morvant pull real stones and Duscam was shooting. In fact both of them linked up for the best goal of the day. Morvant launched a long ball out the back and Duscam skilfully made a diagonal run and took it deftly upon his chest. and slapped a Volley past Reaper. Watch meh real TV ting...it looked that good.
However that was probably the only moment of brilliance this sweat see for the day. No beat share, no spanner, one or two men collect some cap courtesy a mistrap or a eager rush in . But the sun took its toll. Men was begging for water/beer/rum break and at 5-4 whites we went in for half time.
The Big flag came out and a setta people....ent know names, helped unfurl, and fold back the big guy in preparation for todays game. It was a real nice sight to behold.
2nd Half more of the same but reds were dangerous and had us on the back foot...dwn, ray10 and spidey were knocking, Small M was scoring them, but our secret weapon emerged....DOC.
Forumites Doc is player. he was the fittest on the field, had the best touch and control, good vision, he turn up some of the young boys and played fwd, last midfield and helped lead whites to glory.
Thw two worst abortion plays came from Morvant. He beat back Stern and Maurice Alibey. he hit post and sky ball overbars from 6 inches away unmarked...poor fella was sour whole day. A lime was sweeter than him. He lorse all he beat and all he speed.
But dont study it Morvant all good players allowed a off day.
We eventually couldnt take the sun any more and said first to 10 wins. Reds had us 8-7. We eventually pipped them 10-9...courtesy Doc runing tru and slotting it far post for the match winner.
Duscam was the top goal scorer with 4 or 5. Swima I think score a few. Not sure if G or Morvant score and I score 1.
Doc was then presented with the man of the match award by yours truly after being voted in.
We then started to finish orf all the drinks and everyone put a name to the forum name..greeting and shake hand pass all around and a good time was had by all.
Till game time!

My question is, are there bogus tickets that exist or not ?! I sensing some chaos and disorganisation in the air.
Warner allays ‘bogus’ ticket fears
By WALTER ALIBEY Sunday, June 1 2008
http://www.newsday.co.tt/sport/0,79995.html
SPECIAL advisor to the Trinidad and Tobago Football Federation (TTFF) Jack Austin Warner was yesterday called upon to act quickly to prevent the fear that people who bought tickets from the TTFF on-line system may not see the match.
Some fans who purchased tickets for today’s historic international friendly between the “Soca Warriors” and England called “A Score to Settle” at the Hasely Crawford Stadium, Mucurapo, from 5.30 pm today, were in a quandary after discovering they bought bogus tickets.
The tickets were ordered on-line and collected at May 18 day at the Marvin Lee Stadium, Dr Joao Havelange Centre of Excellence, Macoya, Tunapuna.
A Newsday report yesterday, clearly showed the difference between the authentic tickets and the bogus ones.
And yesterday ticket holders Kenneth Medina and his wife Camille Henry entered the company’s Chacon Street office claiming they purchased bogus tickets from the Football Federation’s on-line system.
Medina also threatened to take legal action if his situation is not sorted out by today, mere hours before the match.
But Warner who is also CONCACAF president and FIFA vice-president quickly sorted out the situation.
Newsday was reliably informed that the mistake originated with the handlers of the first-time on-line ticket system.
And as such Football Federation officials are advising people who may have purchased so called “bogus” tickets from their system to attend the match. “Let them come to the match, the problem has been sorted out,” a TTFF official said yesterday.
The Football Federation officials admitted also that there were lots of other people who approached them about the same problem.
Medina who also travelled to Germany to watch the “Soca Warriors” at the 2006 FIFA World Cup said he wants to see the game.

So with all that ESPN talk and so on is the game showing in the US on any channel?
FYI
it's being shown live at Nevada Smiths (74 3rd ave at 11th Street, Manhattan). There's $10 Cover charge since it's a Setanta PPV broadcast. here's a link to their website http://www.nevadasmiths.net/fixtures.html
The bars listed on the on the Setanta link are Setanta subsribers, but MAY NOT CARRY THE GAME because it's PPV, so call them first.

NICE!
I know this is supposed to be a blog about the Euros, but is it my fault that I'm having fun in the sun in Trinidad? Here we are in Port of Spain, Trinidad's low-rise capital sprawling at the foot of tree-coated mountains at the island's centre.
Low-rise except for the brand-new gleaming Hyatt Regency Hotel. Sumptuous, luxurious sofas perch next to gleaming marble pillars. Here and there lurk attentive staff so expert that they cater for one's every whim almost before you have had chance to whim it. It's the kind of hotel that leaves you feeling vibrant and young, reflecting that you are one of life's chosen few as you saunter from the silent lifts onto its plush embracing carpets.

Warner warns England over Cup bid
J
ack Warner
Warner can see David Beckham playing a big part in England's bid
Fifa vice-president Jack Warner has warned that England's "arrogance" could cost them the chance of hosting the World Cup in 2018.
Warner has given his backing to England's bid but believes the way the country is perceived by other European nations could be a problem.
"England has never been viewed as part of Europe," he told BBC Radio 5 Live.
"England should reintegrate back into Uefa and then that bond, fellowship and togetherness will be there."
Warner is viewed as one of the most powerful men in world football and his importance can be traced back to England's failed 2006 World Cup bid when three of England's five votes came from him.
The 65-year-old president of Concacaf, which covers North and Central America, and the Caribbean, has again given his support to England ahead of their friendly against Trinidad and Tobago, but said that alone may not be enough.
England has to try to remove or reduce what people perceive to be arrogance - rightly or wrongly.
Jack Warner
"The catalyst of my support for England for the bid for 2018 is because I don't believe any country of England's football pedigree should not have a world cup for almost 50 years.
"England, a country that invented the sport and with all the facilities England has, has not hosted a world cup and I think it is wrong.
"It is against this background that I supported England for 2006. In 2006, when England only had five votes, I gave them three.
"I said to Tony Banks (leader of England's bid) then that they will not win the bid because they didn't have European support.
"Even now, if England gets support from outside, she still needs at least two or three people in Europe to give support."
He added: "I also think there have been too many changes of the leadership of the FA over the years.
"People don't really know its leaders - as soon as you get to know somebody then that person goes for whatever reason. There has to be some kind of longevity in terms of the leadership.
606: DEBATE
Your thoughts on England's game against Trinidad and Tobago
"Finally, England has to try to remove or reduce what people perceive to be arrogance - rightly or wrongly.
"What England needs is to have somebody like a David Beckham to be its ambassador out there to sell the idea. Beckham is loved by all. Beckham is like Pele and therefore use him to sell the idea.
"If these things are done and done quickly, I don't see a problem."
It is clear Warner believes Beckham's standing in world football can play a vital role in England's bid and he is keen to see the LA Galaxy midfielder play a more active role.
"For many people it would bring a legitimacy to the bid," he said.
"Beckham will be speaking to the powers that be - the people that matter - and letting them know England's time is now and that he is contributed in someway towards making that a reality.
"I think that particularly young people look up to Beckham. Whatever you may say of Beckham, he is an icon and an idol internationally."

Manhattan crew... de lime is in McCormack's...

This match will/should give the local players a taste of the kind of ball they only been seeing on TV up til now. Plus it could send a signal to the rest of the world (depending on how we do) that T&T ready for big time football. Not to mention as Dutty said it will have a big impact on the kids who should get an early idea of what to aspire to.

And if our inexperienced and primarily local based defence get ripped apart and we lose by 3 or more, people will remember TnT as the team who got easily beaten in Trinidad, as opposed to our reputation now as the team that held England for 82 minutes in a WC final game until the hand of crouch intervened.
Frankly, I preferred the latter.
But experience wise, it's a once in a life time opportunity for the players. (Still have no idea why Yorke is there!)

We supposed to coast on that reputation for how long again? T&T football have to grow up sometime. It can't always be a smooth, confidence building process. Sometime a good cutarse is the best motivation.
And who knows, they might surprise plenty people 8)

that sucks...I guess I have to do the stream then off the web

T&T football have to grow up sometime.
Explain to me how we growing up by inviting 36 yr olds to play in a game when we're supposed to be blooding our younger footballers for the future and impending WC qualification ?
In any event, the team in 2006 got to play England largely based on merit, whereas this opportunity is entirely political.

the same signifance when we played out last four games against Barbados, Grenada, jamaica and El Salavador...World Cup preparation..This is just an opossition of much higher quality...therefore more people is more interested in this game rather than the previous games...(and the fact that Yorke making an appearance does not change the fact that this game is still preparation going into the campaign)

Yeah I am not in agreement with the politics etc. either. I just hope that Yorke will serve as a buffer to the D by give them a little time and space to deal with the opposition. That I believe is what the plan SHOULD be. I would much prefer the team pre-Yroke so as to give the PL youths a taste of real competition.
But again, I glad they getting the chance to take licks. The ride can't always be smooth, especially not in T&T football. And that D will have plenty to chew on this evening with or without Yorke.

Through the open stadium gates came the thump of music, the screeches of happy children and the sound of laughter. It turned out that all of this was nothing at all to with football. A local church was having a family fun day with a bouncy castle in the penalty area, a merry-go-round behind the goal and kids swarming in the stands and on the pitch.
"Where are the footballers?" I asked someone who seemed to be in charge. "They'll have to wait," he said. "We have booked the stadium until 5."
Lord!

Quote of the day: “Beckham will be captain tomorrow but the appointment is not a political move. I work for the game - not the political side of things. The political side is for the FA and they have not suggested to me that Beckham should be captain tomorrow. There was no pressure put on me. No-one could do that to me. I decided as I have decided throughout my life and when I was manager of a club. Beckham was very happy when I told him today.” – Fabio Capello.

Small change the game is on Setanta broadband for 9.99
If you want to go to a pub the Phoenix Landing on Mass Ave in Cambridge subscribes to Setanta. They usually have all the PPV events, even rugby, so I imagine they will have this one too.

I hope Jack is pleased with himself. Playing with a 50% second string is embarrasing for T&T. And BBC haven't mentioned the blacklisted players, which would explain to English viewers why T&T are so weak.
Cupid is looking out of his depth and I bet Maturana regrets not having Scottie on the bench!

ah tell alyuh bout dem goat we have as wing backs!!!
-
Lord Cupid lay down some tata dey. Keep yuh head about yuh youth
-
the announcer now say he doh understand how scotland not in the team
-
Ah could only hope we have better on the bench...fete match or no I really had hoped we didnt get embarassed
-
Well so far we pretty damn competitive. Besides the goals of course ;D
-
Summary we down 2 nil, Kenwyne off knee injury, Highland, Whitley, Keon Daniel looking good.
-
The guys and dem looked like they starting to settle from the 25 minute but the guys gave them too much space and Carlos passes are a bit off. It could have been worse for us but we are holding on.
-
well them boys look like they settle down now, they just need to keep d ball some more....Hyland playing boss dread, dont know why he doesnt have a club....Daniel playing good to.
-
Please with Farrier but Cupid ain't able.We need a defensive midfielder.
-
remember how we come back against jamiaca 2nd half ,look thing ;D
-
BRING BACK BIRCHALL
-
I figure England cruisin now...two goals up, they dont need to press us to much. This is when we hadda step it up and make for the come back like in Jamaica...Whitley lookin much better than i remember of him and Carlos need to tighten up on his crosses. We need somebody to carry the ball foward in attack tho
-
Please with Farrier but Cupid ain't able.We need a defensive midfielder.
Yes and his name is Chris Birchall
-
It may be just coincidence, but on BBC, both Alan Shearer and Alan Hansen are wearing black shirts. Its unusual to see that, so maybe they're supporting the players??
-
well them boys look like they settle down now, they just need to keep d ball some more....Hyland playing boss dread, dont know why he doesnt have a club....Daniel playing good to.
Very true...they also need to pressure a little more...in other words, respect them but don't fear them....
-
Please with Farrier but Cupid ain't able.We need a defensive midfielder.

I was now thinking of the same thing...but it is a learning experience for these fellas and I'm sure the coach will make his adjustments at halftime.

yea allyuh enjoy!!

well D ttff look for that, no sancho, no birchall, no Scotland.
the injury to Kenwyne doh look to bad, just being safe to leave him off
-
remember how we come back against jamiaca 2nd half ,look thing ;D
He heh. England much stronger than that second string 11 Jamaica had on teh field in teh second half of that game. But I agree with you, te England players are probably being affected by the heat/humidity.
-
is half time now right?
-
I think Cupid let the moment get the better of him.I haven't seen him play much before but if he is worth it, we may think of keeping him on to build his confidence.
-
T&T HAVE MORE POSSESSION LOL
-
de 4CAR coming on
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
-
Wait who is dat string bean who stretching on the sidelines....they mad to put he on?

from the way the knee bent, i would assume its the MCL
Grade I MCL Tear
This is an incomplete tear of the MCL. The tendon is still in continuity, and the symptoms are usually minimal. Patients usually complain of pain with pressure on the MCL, and may be able to return to their sport very quickly. Most athletes miss 1-2 weeks of play.
Grade II MCL Tear
Grade II injuries are also considered incomplete tears of the MCL. These patients may complain of instability when attempting to cut or pivot. The pain and swelling is more significant, and usually a period of 3-4 weeks of rest is necessary.
Grade III MCL Tear
A grade III injury is a complete tear of the MCL. Patients have significant pain and swelling, and often have difficulty bending the knee. Instability, or giving out, is a common finding with grade III MCL tears. A knee brace or a knee immobilizer is usually needed for comfort, and healing may take 6 weeks or longer.

After watching the England Match its clear the TTFF paid the price for there selections. Bring dem back

True. England B easing up like the Reggae Boyz did letting T&T back in the game. Let's see if T&T grab the opportunity.
Goalkeeper and other changes being made. Just like what the Reggae Boyz did to let T&T back in the game.

-
These English c*nts staring to get on my last nerves
-
Dwight on....everyone else off. ;D
;D
Why Maturana took off Hyland and Stern when he put Yorke on - they were the biggest threats in this game - greatly diminishes a chance at a consolation goal.
-
They show a pic of Warner and say that is the reason England is here today. Trying to keep Warner Happy. VP of FIFA aka MR. Big.

look the jackass himself jack warner stueps

Whitley was a boss. Keon Daniel will find it hard to keep off Connell. Maturana please call Julius James. Telesford had a real good game. Hyland you prove you could rumble. More effectiveness and less gallery next time though.

Doh be too hard on the boys. It was a difference in class, and at certain parts of the game, Trinidad had some good possesion of the ball; something we have IMPROVED alot. In order for us to improve, we MUST play these sort of games against these kinds of oppossition. Yorke is out! Latas is out. We must move on. These young guys can learn and improve from this.

I think we had moments... early on we had a chance prior to England scoring.... Our chances were just too few and we did little to create more chances.
SO WHAT DO WE DO NOW?
Take yuh licks like ah man.
Get yuh arse running and tackling
Learn how to trap ah ball and pass
Play like dis is yuh last game
Get yuh arse on the practice field tomorrow morning
Jamaica coming back with full force ; be ready.
WC qualifiers eh go be easy against anyone
With K.Jones out; Jason Scotland and Randi Patterson need serious looks
-
I find the game was better in de first half..Cupid has a bad game today but Osei looked composed whenever he collected de ball. Didn't enjoy the commentators making fun of the marketing slogan but when yuh up 3 nil I guess you can do what you want.
Also dey respect Yorke on dat field, not a man was within 6 ft of him when he touched de ball.

At least it eh SIX
dais ah math question...if we get half as much goals as the nearest island are we twice as good? ;D

T&T play good shit, d way some ah them play was moving u would think they was up 3-0.......Hyland, Daniel, two youths with nuff promise, they earn there spots.......Dennis Lawrence, thanks, but we need to scout T&T for better defenders........BRING BACK BIRCHILL
-
BIG difference in class and England didnt have their big guns...Luckily we wont see nothing close to that in Concacaf...Hopefully its not to serious with Jones, he was putting pressure on it and tried to move around so I keeping my fingers crossed for two weeks MAX...all in all a decent game but PLENTY work to do in the back...Hyland and Whitley played well in my books

Hyland and Daniel had a good game today but we truly missing a defensive midfielder (haven't i heard this line before???) and our defense needs to tighten up in terms of closing out theirr markers.

Guys at this rate this team will have trouble to even reach de hex far less for de world cup.
-
Well onto JA.....that is the game I really looking forward to. We have some good youths coming up. The truth is 2010 eh looking so good. But beyond that is real pressure. People maligning the D, but we have Farrier, Adams, James, Hislop, Telesford and yes Cupid and Powers all of who are relatively young. And we have Sancho and Avery (hopefully) and Lawrence etc. to guide them. What we need to start seeing is the development of understanding between the mids and the extension of that to the front and back. And of course a strong creatvie mid.
-
I think our defending (if u wanna call it that) was non exsistant in the first half a LITTLE better in the 2nd. I could write a dossier on how bad it was....maybe another time. We failed completely to close down any of their play in the midfield. England's MF had hours to decide what dey wanted to do with the ball as opposed to our players who apparently didn't want the ball at they feet...men was all too happy to give england back the ball once we won it. But i tink that will improve after this game. ALso our fitness needs to vastly improve as well. There were many time in both halves where our midfield din't seem to care was the ball went past them. But to me the main things that went wrong with the defense were:
1. Not closing down thier players in midfield & sticking tight to the opposition players.
2. Our defnesive spacing and awareness. The distance between our midfield-forwards & our defense - midfield was way too much for a fair amount of the game. it left our defence exposed way too much sometimes. Also our tracking of thier runners from midfield.
3. Communication!!! this would have prevented both of the aforementioned problems.
4. Carlos defensively made our midfield way too narrow by going either inside or too high up leaving cupid to mark 2 players & givin him self extra running in the process
5. Our central midfielders were ususally out of postiton in the sense that....when we had the ball in defence they were either too far from the defenders forcing a long pass or too close to each other making them easy to pressure.
& since when we is a long ball country?
but on the positive we held the ball well for some periods...had a few good passages. Stern played well for the time he was on. Too bad about kenwyne tho. hope he will be back in time for the WCQ. Roberts looked good as well. Most impressive tho was Hyland & whitley, though i tink we wub be best served playing whitley higher up the pitch closer to the stirker(s) especially with his shooting ability. Telesford was decent when he came on....but he come to much onto the defence to demand the ball sometimes brining the added pressure of a midfielder with him.
Overall tho a good experience that showed how steep our learning curve is if we intend to make the step up (it also shows how far we have fallen). But the good thing is our players who played are young & have time on their side to improve tremendously. now is back to d drawing board for th 7th :)
-
Also dey respect Yorke on dat field, not a man was within 6 ft of him when he touched de ball.
Are you serious? Not a man was within 6 ft because they were already up 3-0 and didn't have to push forward. Here's another hint...Yorke isn't playing forward.
-
BBC is stating that Kenwyne's injury is to the knee ligament:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/internationals/7425208.stm
too early to say this. let him get his mri first please BBC
Don't need an MRI to diagnose a ligament sprain.
-
We looking at individuals no problem but as a team we play sh!t.We not together atall.our midfield is a major problem and sorry to say we have no Yorke or Latas to pull us out this time.I'm not generally impress with their replacements Whittley and Theodore.Although de yute Hyland generally had a good game he needs a Yorke around him to improve
Another ting how EVERY country in the world know if you want to beat Trinidad pressure dem early in both halves.Dais exactly what the US,JA and dem central american teams does do us.
-
at least the new uniforms look real nice.
-
Last win would have been 2-0 vs Guatemala and 3-0 vs El Salvador last year. last 2 games ended 2-2 and 1-1 vs T&T and Costa Rica respectively. :)
wonderful..so ah year later collectin scores like 8 and 6 etc...hell of an improvement :beermug:
your guys are so polished at descent on the FIFA rankings,,, must be a cultural art form
-
Hoe Roberts get dat treatment . :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: He coulda get at least ten in the second half..MaturANA ruthless boy...Stern ha to give up more now that kenwayne finished
-
The play got stuck in the middle too much as a man say Carlos was very far inside and Daniel was not mobile enough to create space for himself. The ball was held up well, especially by Stern and most of the productive offensive movement occured in a small space in upper mid, but the wing never opened so is no surprise the best opportunity of on goal came from Whitely in that same spot.
-
Defence is de reel achillies heel

Well, I cuss so much ah get a headache!
First, why de fack I was seeing girls in de stadium kitted out in England team jerseys, complete with the forking england flag painted on dey cheeks??? Answer meh dat one question! Dat start meh night off well. Ah cuss till ah get chest pains! And dem eh no brits come down to support de boys. Ah set ah indian girls sitting in the regular uncovered section and winning to the music, so yuh know dey Trini. Wat de fack were they thinking? Dat is why we cyah reach as a people, you wearing de opposition uniform and flag and colours just because you like de man and dem? And de ass next to them wearing ah Man U juzzy! Even self yuh did wear de white version I coulda deal with dat. But you obviously come to support yuh ManU player, not yuh damn country. WAGGONISTS!!!!
Dem must be de same jackass who bawling and screaming everytime Beckham touch de ball. EVERYTIME I tell you, and yuh could see dem standing up and screaming and ting, it was embarrassing! My friend, who british could not believe it, she was like: why are they screaming everytime he touches the ball. Aren't they supposed to be supporting their team? FACKERY!
Then, dem forking BBC commentators Alan Hanson and Alan Shearer, was getting on my last nerve! Man bawl de game was hard for england cause the players were playing it with one eye on the beach. When the final whistle blow, first words out of the commentator's mouth were: "They've met the kids, done the PR, let's hope that's the votes then".
Now, I may be bias as a Trini, but I doh care how much of a "meaningless game" this was, yuh doh say certain things on air during a live feed. Some of the condescending borderline insultive shite that was coming out of their mouths was uncalled for. Yes the Trini side was poor, is a barely prepared team with alot of lil boys getting some much needed international experience. Allyuh on top, allyuh winning, there is no need to go to that level. Imagine ah man bawl at the end of the first half: "...well england are definitely winning this game, no doubt about it, on to the beach". Steups! If allyuh arrogant ass was as good as yuh think, yuh would be preparing to play in de Euro 2008 all now, instead of coming to kiss JW ass with all de PR and de meaningless game. Steups!
All ah dis embarrassment cause JW spiteful ass doh want to field our best side. Dey not ready! Ah hope he like how it looking, and aaaaalllllll de stick he gonna get from his FIFA buddies. Now instead of people remembering the good ball played by the side at the WC they gonna remember de "god awful game" against england.
And why was de stadium so quiet and well behaved? My friend could not believe what she was seeing. She say is ah good ting she eh fly down for de game, cause she thought it woulda be a good carnival atmosphere, rythm section, rum, people making noise, jumping and ting. No. Everybody sit down quiet like if they watching cricket at lords. Yeesh!
But on a kicksy note, allyuh hear de stadium announcer bawling hard hard: " allyuh not helping we!" :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: Only in Trinidad.

Times have not changed...them women still running down them english men......maybe the colonial masters will once more go breed some ah dem and we go have some more 'me mums' come wc 2030

Firstly thanks for the internet crackshots who found the stream and put it on the internet :applause:
Jess a few spontaneous notes.... with more talk later. After watching this game and thinking mainly about THE QUALIFIERS.....
Needed for sure:
1. Telesford ! (D)
2. Whitley !! (M)
3. Sancho (D)
4. Samuel (M)
5. Roberts! (F)
6. Stern John! (F)
7. Clayton (K)
8. Carlos! (M)
9. Jones (F)
10. Birchall ! (DM)
11. Cyd Gray!! (Laaad Cupid!!! :-\) (D)
12 Patterson (F)
13: Guerra (M)
14. Avery John (D)
15. Hyland (M)
16. Nigel Daniel (D)
17. Dennis Lawrence (he did make a bad mistake, got away with it and I forgive him) (D)
18. Cornell Glen! (F)
19. Jan Michael (K)
20: Kelvin Jack! (K)
21: Marvin Philips (K)
22: Theobald (M)
23. Julius James! (D)
24. Scotland (F)
25. Power (D)
26. Baptiste! (as alternate for Carlos) (M)
27 Kareem Smith ? Not sure yet. (D)
Need to chill and try again later:
1. Cupid (very very poor today, sorry). Anything received meant the ball would be lost in the next pass.
2. Keon Daniel, ok but not easy to geh pick over Samuel at the level of tough intenational ball
3. Makan Hislop
Bullcrap that must stop now:
1. Blacklisting people fuh spite at the expense of T&Ts hard won international respect
2. Putting too many green defenders in high stakes games. Let them hang around the experienced ones first to get confidence.
3. Politics in local football
Players who might survive and get a shot later after success is established in the qualifiers:
1. Farrier (Probably a better chance than the others) as don't remember seeing big mistakes as such.
2. Connell
3. Gay
4. Forbes
5. Radanfah Abu Bakr
6. Glasgow (if he is still in shape)
Ah go think of more later after ah read some threads dey :beermug:

daiz all it is with them girls - they come out fuh Beckham. If he so much as fart in the wind they go rush to bask in it. If have some man like that too eh. Doh get vex with them girls nah, just shake yuh head and dismiss them as schupid.

I didn't hear all dat over de bar noise but it sound like typical English international commentary when England playing, especially if is against 'minnows' like we. Them still bitter cause they can't beat Croatia in the Wembley. Dismiss that as schupid too.
What frustrate me is that England eh play nothing special against us and we couldn't respond effectively
-
Our problem is not our defenders. Is not now and never was. its our defensive posture, starting with midfield. Our midfield is EXTREMELY weak defensively, same as last worldcup. Beenie "solve" this by making dem men live behind the ball, effectively cluttering up the passing lanes, BUT, at the same time, making them look clueless going forward with extremely poor possesion ability in attack, despite his possession,possession, mantra. Beenie and company didnt have ah clue past defence.
Maturana bringing back the attacking flair, confidence and ability to the team. It is obvious that the team eh playing NO SETTA LONG BALL FROM THE BACK STUPIDNESS a la BEENIE. The ball is coming out of the back on the ground, and at times we even look good and constructive in attack. TANK DE LORD!!!This is Maturana ball. Problem is the defensive problems have returned.
This game, its not only that midfield wasn't supporting the defence properly, especially in tracking back players and pressuring passers in midfield, the dfensive posture wasn't compact enough, the defenders were playing too far back. It was waaayyy too free for England on the ball. I personally believe this is an easy fix. Men workrate have to rise in midfield. Anton have to crack that whip, like with the U-17.
There was no wing and crossplay either. Really, where was the midfield? The upside is we actually starting to look modern and capable in possession in attack.
People, we actually CREATED A FEW DIRECT GOOD LOOKS ON GOAL,ON THE RUN, IN TRAFFIC, AGAINST A GOOD TEAM.
We good for Concacaf right now.

YES.
It saved the day because the flag they brought out on the field was about 5 times smaller than the england flag.
If u look close u might spot a couple people up top

Our problem is not our defenders. Is not now and never was. its our defensive posture, starting with midfield. Our midfield is EXTREMELY weak defensively, same as last worldcup. Beenie "solve" this by making dem men live behind the ball, effectively cluttering up the passing lanes, BUT, at the same time, making them look clueless going forward with extremely poor possesion ability in attack, despite his possession,possession, mantra. Beenie and company didnt have ah clue past defence.
Maturana bringing back the attacking flair, confidence and ability to the team. It is obvious that the team eh playing NO SETTA LONG BALL FROM THE BACK STUPIDNESS a la BEENIE. The ball is coming out of the back on the ground, and at times we even look good and constructive in attack. TANK DE LORD!!!This is Maturana ball. Problem is the defensive problems have returned.
This game, its not only that midfield wasn't supporting the defence properly, especially in tracking back players and pressuring passers in midfield, the dfensive posture wasn't compact enough, the defenders were playing too far back. It was waaayyy too free for England on the ball. I personally believe this is an easy fix. Men workrate have to rise in midfield. Anton have to crack that whip, like with the U-17.
There was no wing and crossplay either. Really, where was the midfield? The upside is we actually starting to look modern and capable in possession in attack.
People, we actually CREATED A FEW DIRECT GOOD LOOKS ON GOAL,ON THE RUN, IN TRAFFIC, AGAINST A GOOD TEAM.
We good for Concacaf right now.
good post Socafan..i also noticed that maturana brought back the freedom for midfield players to take on me...i doh think i see TT midfielders ever share as much beat as i see gerrard and co take in the middle 2day...
buh dat aside..dat defence jah!
cupid..honestly i wouldn't pick him again until he study maldini so much that he hair straighen, he's wear a headband..he eyes blue-green and he speaking fluent italian..and he sign for milan... even then i would be skeptical...
it look like the defence take the term friendly to heart..i see makan back off dafoe in teh attacking third and was like this man serious?
These men realise how much of an pportunity this was to make a name...men shoulda play the game of their lives...a good portion of the world ws watching this game...and we practically erode all the respect we earn in germany...
sigh...
enough wid the negative..
stern look good.. find roberts coulda get a longer run..buh he need to toughen up..he still too soft for my liking... hyland could become a big one..if he really puts his distribution into top gear cuz he's proven himself 2day...d ref give gerrard a yellow card for the spanner..not necessarily the foul...
whitley look rel good 2..buh his final bawl was lacking..
carlos look ok..his delivery let him down 2day...
daniel..i have faith in this dude...he could develop into a good player..
dennis experience show...hislop..need to learn more..telesford look solid
smith was arightish...farrier eh look 2 bad..

Let de people support and wine fuh who dey want oui...allyuh dun know fun many of these people this was ah society event. If not fuh all de 'centennial' talk half ah dem woulda probably say we start playing football two years ago in Trinidad. I wouldn't even let dem fool and dem vex my spirit.
That aside, people living and dying with this team too much...this was very much an experimental squad and contrary to the sturm und drang playing out in these threads, now is the appropriate time to be experimenting, now is the time to find out what you have, or don't have as the case might be. Hopefully having identified our deficiencies (looking at it from Pacho's POV) we can fix it from here on out. I imagine it would pretty much be the same pool of players who will face JA on Saturday though.

I expected at least ah 3-0 beatdown so no surprise..as bake and shark said, this si right time to experiment to see who ready and who need to go practice 5 days a week on their own to get up to speed with international football.
Allyuh men who was bigging up cupid, edwards, connell, and whoever else based on games against grenada, etc., I hope allyuh realise them men not ready for WCQ, right now we need the entire world cup squad to form the nucleus of the 2010 campaign. However, I give credit to maturana for giving the youths a chance and he should continue to include some of them in the set up, players such as hyland, akeem adams (a big star in the making) plus others such as julius james and patterson. Sad to the say, our best defence is still our over 30 guys (avery, sancho,cyd,lawrence).
Regarding our midfield, heaven help us. Imagine we still need 36 yr old Yorke and 40 something Latas because men like whitley, hyland, theobald cannot cope with mexico, usa, costa rica, canada.
The only bright spot I seeing is the forward line, we have 2 forwards, KJ and Stern who are capable of doing well at the concacaf level, scotland, roberts, and company have a lot to do, some of allyuh acting like scotland would have make a difference today when he couldnt handle guadeloupe or whatever shit side he last played against.

"Still stick in the colonial mud"
I think its about centuries old practice of deference to lighter skinned people via the caste system as much as colonial legacy that still plagues a portion of the Indian diaspora in T&T and around the world. These things hard to shake off. In a sense it could be anti-colonial....a rejection of T&T as anything but a transitory backwoods. Who knows? That is them business.

B & S I wid yuh on dah comment yes. Dis is de rite time to fine out who will do what in what circumstances. At this point in the preparations I have no fear that the coach will get it rite for the Bermuda game. This is the important game to win.

Be easy on Dennis man...save fuh de one lapse he had in de second half on Theo's run into de area I thought he played okay. You have to remember that defense is all about playing as a cohesive unit, there is a familiarity with the men alongside you that's necessary for you to have confidence in them. Some of that 'ball watching' could be miscommunication, expecting man to do one thing and he expecting you to do another.
That said, we were utterly clueless on defense...every cross into the area was an adventure because English players were just there liming unchecked waiting for the passes to come in. Dem men might as well siddung, spread dey blanket and have ah picnic...they were so wide open. We just need to have these fellas play more games together where they could start developing the type of consistency that's necessary. With a largely veteran group of defenders in Germany two yrs ago, them men either played a lot with each other to know what the other was doing (not that we were dat great then either, but...), or they were professional enough to have a keen understanding of their positioning on the field, and relative to each other.
Thing like that will only come with time, and once we settle on a defensive core...they can play more together and gel as we get into qualifying...hopefully.

Trinidad and Tobago 0 England 3
By John Curtis, PA Sport, Port Of Spain
Gareth Barry had an evening to remember as the first phase of Fabio Capello's reign as England coach reached a satisfactory conclusion via a comfortable win against Trinidad and Tobago.
The Aston Villa midfielder scored his first goal for his country - eight years after his debut - and then was handed the captain's armband by Capello for the second half after David Beckham had been substituted.
Two goals from Jermain Defoe ensured the England players will head for their summer holidays in a positive frame of mind and the report on the first six months of Capello's reign should read "shows promise but still room for improvement."
Capello wanted to see how England would react away from home and in the kind of above normal temperatures that have proved difficult for them to deal with in major tournaments.
But the sun barely shone before darkness descended and in truth this represented little more than a glorified training exercise once Barry and Defoe had netted in the first quarter of the game.
And the cynical view remains this trip to the Caribbean represented little more than an exercise in trying to secure the backing of Trinidad and Tobago for the Football Association's expected bid for the 2018 World Cup finals.
That is why Capello probably started the game with his strongest available side when it would have been an ideal opportunity to give 90 minutes to the likes of Theo Walcott, Ashley Young and Gabriel Agbonlahor.
Now the work will start for real in September with England's opening World Cup qualifiers - away to Andorra in Barcelona and more importantly Croatia.
That is when Capello will be under the microscope for the first time as fans and critics alike wait to see if someone can finally get the best out of the so called golden generation.
A new permanent captain should be place for the final friendly international against the Czech Republic in August after Capello has tried out Steven Gerrard, Rio Ferdinand, John Terry and, most surprisingly, David Beckham in the role.
Capello has had the chance to experiment for the past six months at different times with two holding midfield players, Wayne Rooney as the lone striker and Gerrard in a free role on the left side of midfield.
The players have had the opportunity to get used to Capello's methods and ways, which demand discipline and are different to his predecessor Steve McClaren.
The 23,000 capacity Hasely Crawford Stadium was almost full two hours before the kick-off despite England being without seven of the Manchester United and Chelsea players who had competed in the Champions League final.
They saw Beckham lead England out for for the 59th time - nearly two years after the last occasion in the 2006 World Cup.
The hosts, containing five English-based players in their side, were soon under the cosh and suffered an injury setback after only eight minutes.
Rio Ferdinand's hesitation forced David James to come racing out of his area and he collided with Sunderland striker Kenwyne Jones who was carried off on a stretcher with a leg injury and replaced by Darryl Roberts.
Stuart Downing's ball picked out the run of Wayne Bridge and his first time cross was volleyed in at close range by Barry for his first goal for his country.
Then a pass from Downing was run onto by Defoe, who had plenty of time to drill a low shot across Clayton Ince into the corner of the net.
The home side, who had held out for 83 minutes against England during the 2006 World Cup finals, showed plenty of spirit and Steven Gerrard was booked for bringing down Khaleem Hyland after 29 minutes.
But a shot on the turn from Roberts, comfortably saved by James, was all they could manage and before half-time Defoe and debutant Dean Ashton volleyed over when well placed.
Inevitably Capello made a spate of half-time substitutions with David Bentley, Peter Crouch and debutants Joe Hart and Phil Jagielka replacing Beckham, Ashton, James and Ferdinand respectively.
And after 49 minutes Defoe struck for the second time after Crouch had headed a cross from Bentley into his path.
The Portsmouth striker should have completed a hat-trick but sliced his shot wide before making way for Theo Walcott with 20 minutes remaining.

What was the deal with that? why would they have two completely different size flags for the opening?
-
well boy! I real, real fed up see that same goal score against T&T - deep cross far post to forward (3 defenders rushin him down but all still manage to miss) forward head it back to unmarked other forward right in front the goal; boom goal. usa, mexico... is like them fellaz doh watch tape or doh be concentrating at all on that field.
otherwise I happy with the game. I feel the defense could get better with more games together against BETTER opposition. hyland and carlos on the right with practice could be killer (hopefully carlos get back the crossing accuracy with more games)...left side....still a problem maybe samuel might be able to help.
all in all we could have a decent squad that could make it to the world cup...but if kenwyne AND carlos injured our out for any reason, I doh see us beating any top notch side.
Nice to see yorke clearly deserving a spot on the side (well I ent know if to feel good or bad about that).
go TNT!

I think this happen before but might not have been as high profile a game and well the other team flag wasn't soooo much bigger.
We cudda well take our flag on the field instead. It even had regular flags in the stands i think was bigger. Big oversight by somebody...centennial committee...I dunno who.

Trinidad & Tobago 0-3 England - as it happened

Defoe slots the ball home
Jermain Defoe slots the ball home for England's second goal. Photograph: Shaun Botterill/Getty
Preamble: Don't even think about making that cup of Horlicks and settling down with the latest Mariah Keyes novel . The Three Lions need you!
Well, perhaps not, but it's ridiculous o'clock and I could do with some emails to get me through an exercise more pointless than applying sun-screen in Manchester in November.
Jack Warner told the Observer last night that "if the US did bid [for the 2018 World Cup] I would have to support it". So game over. Even applying 'Captain Beckham' as make-up and having country gent Fabio Capello take a football clinic won't woo Warner if the US roll into the reckoning.
The England team is in and it's good news for Dean Ashton, as he's playing up top with Jermain Defoe.
England: James; Johnson, Ferdinand, Woodgate, Bridge; Beckham, Gerrard, Barry, Downing; Defoe, Ashton.
I'm afraid for fans of the Soca Warriors there's been no team announcement yet, but here's a quiz dedicated to your team to make up for this.
At last, here's a proper team update.
Trinidad and Tobago: Ince, Cupid, Lawrence, Hislop, Farrier,
Carlos Edwards, Hyland, Whitley, Daniel, John, Jones.
Subs: Phillip, Roberts, Telesford, Smith, Adams, Guerra, Tinto, Yorke.
England: James, Johnson, Ferdinand, Woodgate, Bridge, Beckham,
Barry, Gerrard, Downing, Ashton, Defoe.
Subs: Hart, Lewis, Warnock, Wheater, Jagielka, Bentley, Young, Huddlestone, Crouch, Walcott, Agbonlahor.
Pre-match build-up: The teams march out onto the pitch led by David Beckham, who I'm sure just winked at Jack Warner. The British national anthem is given a distinctive Caribbean flavour by being played on steel drums. That's novel. Thankfully there are no moronic Engerlunders at the match to boo T&T's anthem. Brilliant.
1 min: We're underway. Stewart Downing plays a fancy back-heel to Wayne Bridge and England hold possession astutely. Trinidad get their first touch with Hyland to howls of glee from the stands.
3 min: Sunderland's Carlos Edwards has the first shot of the match after cutting inside from the right wing. But the shot is blocked by Ferdinand and the ball rolls harmlessly through to James.
4 min: England get a free-kick 20 yards from goal on the left hand-side in the perfect position for David Beckham to curl towards goal. England's captain steps over the ball... but drives it straight into the wall.
5 min: Beckham collects the ball on the right after good work from Dean Ashton. Beckham whips a great cross in to Defoe, but the Pompey striker dives to head the ball, but just misses it.
How not to impress Jack Warner after 8 mins: David James comes rushing out towards T&T's star striker Kenwyne Jones after being sold short by a Ferdinand backpass and takes the ball and the striker in a clumsy challenge. His right leg got trapped under him and he is stretchered off.
10 min: Kenwyne Jones is not able to carry on, having seemingly knackered his knee and wrist in that challenge. Darryl Roberts has replaced him.
Goal! Trinidad & Tobago 0-1 England. Barry 12: Downing clips a delightful ball down the left hand-side for Defoe to rush onto. He cuts a cross back to Barry six yards out, who lashes the ball home between two T&T defenders.
Goal! Trinidad & Tobago 0-2 England. Defoe 15: Stewart Downing slides a simple ball to Defoe, who takes a terrible touch, but them rectifies this by finding the right corner of the net with his left foot. This is all too easy for England.
17 min: "Premier League stars have to be watchful when they come to places like this to play meaningless friendlies against players not used to regular international football," says Gary Naylor, who I mistakenly presumed would be having a summer break from MBMs. "There's always the chance of a hot-headed, foolish challenge from one of them leading to a bad injury - as Kenwyne Jones has just found out." It wasn't a great challenge by James, Gary, but it was clumsy rather than dangerous in my opinion. England are flicking the ball around nonchalantly already. They want to make sure they don't disrespect Jack Warner's boys here.
21 min: The T&T fans are still creating a steel-drummed racket despite their side's defensive deficiencies being exposed at will. Defoe has another crack at goal, but Ince gets his burly midriff behind it. Incidently, the pitch almost looks plastic it's so dry.
24 min: Downing, who is having a very effective game, Finds Barry on the left with a neat flick, but Barry's cross is defended well on this occasion. Gerrard fouls Hyland and T&T get a free-kick within shooting distance.
25 min: Carlos Edwards blasts it at goal but it deflects off the back of Wayne Bridge for a corner.
26 min: A comedy scramble in the six-yard box ensues after the corner bobbles into the box, and the outcome is an injury to Rio Ferdinand. He looks alright though. Meanwhile, this from Dave Kelshaw. "You're going to be busy tonight Mr Rowley! This is going to be as high a score as Bill Kenwright would give to his favourite baritone on that there stupid talent show he once did!" Thanks Dave.
28 min: Karim Hyland pulls off a magical double-dragback on the left wing which must have made Steven Gerrard think he was Cristiano Ronaldo, as he volleys him into the air and receives a booking for his trouble. The T&T crowd rise to their feet to applaud Hyland's skill. It was pretty nifty. The free-kick is wasted unfortunately.
31 min: T&T are having their best passage of play. Daniels shows Johnson a clean pair of heels on the left wing and plays a cross to the far post where Roberts hammers a shot at goal, but it goes straight at David James.
32 min: Defoe then embarrasses himself up the other end of the pitch with a shot from six yards that goes so high over the bar that I still think it'll be in the air in the second-half.
34 min: England are getting numerous chances to cross from the left, thanks to the wandering T&T right-back Cupid. Downing and Bridge work another cross but it doesn't beat the first man.
36 min: "Hello Gregg", says Glenn Ashcroft. "How is this going to help us win the support of Jack Warner? James has knee-knacked their star player and we've just banged in a couple of goals, surely it would be unwise to hammer them? Also can anyone tell me what happened at the end of the Steven Seagal film on Channel Five please?" I'm a bit busy doing this at the moment Glenn but I'm guessing he killed everyone and got the girl. Am I right? I'll open that one out to the readers.
40 min: Downing has a pop at goal from 25 yards which bobbles on the tinder-dry surface straight into the arms of Ince. Some England fans have just piped up and added a bit of two-way banter to the support.
42 min: Bridge is playing some useful Wimbledon-style long balls down the left to Defoe. The pitch is draining all the pace from the ball so he's able to get there ahead of Cupid every time. This time he's fouled, but Beckham's free-kick is plucked out of the air by Ince.
45 min: Whitley wins possession back for T&T as Stewart Downing prepares to break forward and the whistle goes for half-time. Comfortable for England so far. Your emails to follow.
Half-time emails: "Gary Naylor has to be watchful when sending in comments on meaningless matches like this one. Careless use of too many nifty turns of phrase and uncanny insights could leave him lacking inspiration when major tournaments get started," warns Mac Millings. Yeah burnout could be a problem for MBM contributors, not just Big Four stars. Watch yourself Naylor.
"Just a thought Gregg," muses Thomas Hopkins, "but haven't Beckham and Gerrard both been utter dross?" They haven't played well Thomas. Beckham's given the ball away far too often, and hasn't crossed with his usual precision. Gerrard meanwhile, looks like he'd rather be at home watching 100 Super Stevie Strikes on DVD.
"Good to see the erotic love god Cupid on the park for T&T, how's he getting on?" asks Matt Price. He keeps going walkabout and leaving Defoe acres Matt. Perhaps he's such a lothario that he's chatting a female fan up ala Gregory's Girl.
Second half: Bear with me please, while I try to make sense of the multitude of substitutes. Right, here goes: Bentley for Beckham, Crouch for Ashton, Hart for James and Jagielka for Ferdinand. For T&T: Telesford for Roberts and Smith for Cupid. I hope that's right.
46 min: "Whatever happened to Chris Birchall?" asks Sanjay Ziddi. "I remember the hype about his story during the World Cup [he was a white kid from Port Vale] and expected his name on the team sheet in this match against England. Whatever happened to him? Was he used and discarded after the World Cup?" I have no idea Sanjay. I presume he's had a dip in form.
Goal! Trinidad & Tobago 0-3 England. Defoe 48: Bentley skips down the right wing and whips a great cross towards Peter Crouch at the back post. The defender panics under pressure from the mighty frame of Crouch and heads it back to Defoe, who sidefoots the ball home with ease from five yards.
51 min: There's a noticeable improvement in the pace of England's passing with some fresh legs on the pitch.
52 min: Karim Hyland wallops a shot at goal from 30 yards after some great work from Whitley in the midfield. Hart scrambles to his right, but the ball bobbles a yard wide. Whitley has been T&T's best player by my money. He looks more composed than his team-mates.
54 min: Gerrard drives forward for England and tries to find Defoe in the box. The ball is half-cleared and Defoe strikes wide from 10 yards, when he should have scored his hat-trick.
56 min: Peter Crouch is widely booed whenever he gets the ball, which is down to the goal he scored against T&T for England in the World Cup. The poor lad can never get a break. He seems to be jeered no matter what he does.
58 min: On the subject of Crouch, he should have scored after a great England move involving Gerrard and Barry. Crouch collected the ball 10 yards out and scuffed a left-footed shot to the right of Ince, who stretched well to save. Bentley then knocks in a dreadful corner which lands on the edge of the 18-yard box.
61 min:"Mr Millings' concern for my well-being is touching," taps Gary Naylor, "but after a week cocooned away from proper sports (basketball and, er..., women's college softball don't count do they?), I feel like Jeffrey Bernard during a winter freeze which cancelled racing for a few weeks. He invented cat racing to have something to gamble on - I'm watching the most insignificant game in England's football history, just to see some sport." Cat racing sounds almost as exciting as Premier League darts Gary. Perhaps a little unethical though. Bentley's just taken a whack on the face in the England box, but he seems okay.
63 min: T&T are starting to hold onto possession with more regularity now. Whitley and Hyland combine in the middle and Hyaland tries to slide Stern John through on goal, but Jagielka clears the dannger.
65 min: Crouch gets a great touch on the ball to knock it over Lawrence's head, but the referee gives a free-kick for high-feet. Isn't that like penalising a marathon runner for running?
66 min: Hart misses a T&T corner swung in by Edwards and Jagielka clears for another corner. The City goalkeeper then races off his line to collect the second corner and misses that by a mile too. England get it clear but that kind of indecision won't curry favour with Fabio.
Another England substitute on 68 min: Two-goal man Jermain Defoe is replaced by Theo Walcott. Also, in case I forgot to mention it, Ashley Young came on for Stewart Downing a little earlier. Bentley looks a little narky on the right wing. He's not getting as much of the ball as he'd like and a crunching tackle on Farrier depicts his mood perfectly.
70 min: Gerrard is fouled after getting the ball caught under his feet amid a collection of about three T&T midfielders. Bridge knocks the free-kick towards Crouch at the back stick, who knocks it down towards Walcott, but Ince gathers it justy before the nippy Arsenal forward can get to it.
73 min: Gerald Forbes is on for Stern John. "Dwight Yorke is stretching his calf and the crowd are getting excited," says Steve Wilson of the BBC. He's a European Cup winner, and that's how he builds up the anticipation for his entry.
76 min: Dwight Yorke does enter the fray now. I hope his calf muscle is nice and loose. He gets an immediate touch in midfield and the T&T crowd go nuts. England have lost their momentum and can't really get going. Jack Warner won't be impressed.
80 min: The public announcer is perhaps so underwhelmed by England that he's playing music as the match drips towards its close. Ashley Young ties himself in knots and England give the ball away again.
An answer to the Chris Birchall riddle on 82 min: "It seems due to a combination of residual bad blood over the lawsuit for World Cup monies, injury, and Birchall not being played by Chris Coleman at Coventry that the current regime won't call him back to the national team, despite his desire to play for the Soca Warriors." Thanks for that James Wells. Meanwhile, Clayton Ince rushes out from goal to deny Theo Walcott from a having a clear run on goal. Wayne Bridge has been taken off and Blackburn's Stephen Warnock will get an eight-minute run out.
85 min: O'Connell breaks free for T&T on the left wing but his second touch is so cumbersome he clouts the ball 30 yards in front of him into the advertising boards.
86 min: The pace of the game has picked up. Walcott makes the most of an error of judgement by Lawrence, he drives into the box but scuffs his hot straight at Ince, when Crouch was better placed inside to finish. The ball breaks to Crouch but Ince smothers his shot bravely. T&T break immediately and Whitley hoofs a decent chance well over the bar from 20 yards out.
88 min: Ashley Young plays a one-two with Peter Crouch and Young drives a shot at the bottom left corner from 18 yards, but Ince does well to save. Prior to this, Ince showboated by collecting a Crouch shot on his chest instead of catching it. He's had a decent match, despite having to pluck three balls from his net.
90 + 2 min: T&T hold onto possession as if it is they who have won the match and not England. To be honest, they have been winners in a way, as they've kept the score down after a bright start from England.
Full-time: Well, the PR exercise is over. England win the game and perhaps a little more affection from Jack Warner. But Fabio Capello will not have been impressed by the inability of the England team to pass-to-feet with more accuracy. If you want to see another underwhelming performance at a football ground, change channel and you can see the Kaiser Chiefs at Anfield. Thanks for your emails. Sleep well.

Trinidad and Tobago
Ince: 5 - Far too shaky inbetween the sticks, making several irrational decisions. Though none of the goals were directly his fault, he could have come and claimed Bentley's cross for the third.
Cupid: 3 - Quite embarrassing. Was lost in the opening moments of the game in which England rushed to a 2-0 lead in 15 minutes. Was substituted at half time.
Lawrence: 5 - An imposing figure, but he too was guilty of some careless errors at the back.
Hislop: 5 - Part of an unorganised defence that was taken apart early on, but shored up as the match progressed.
Farrier: 6 - Looked fairly promising at left-back, with fairly good positioning and efficient play.
Edwards: 6 - Put in a decent shift, looking fairly promising on the ball when it came his way.
Hyland: 7 - Probably T&T's best player, with some good skill and positive runs throughout the game.
Whitley: 5 - Not as involved or imposing as he would have liked. Bypassed for much of the game.
Daniel: 5 - Had some decent moments on the ball but was not influential enough on the game overall.
John: 6.5 - Showed good promise and created a few chances for himself throughout. Solid.
Jones: 6 - The Sunderland man had a fairly muted but ominous start, as he was making the right runs and could well have caused England's defence a few problems. However, an unfortunate injury early on after a comical clash with David James saw him leave the field, how severe the injury will be is not yet known.
Substitutes:
Roberts: 7
Smith: 7
Telesford: 5
Yorke: n/a
England
James: 5 - Terrible judgement saw him injure Kenwyne Jones early on, and though he was largely untested, he did not look the best goalkeeper England or even the Premier League has to offer - despite having had an outstanding season.
Johnson: 6.5 - Fairly unassuming and not as attacking as he prefers to be, but he did a good job of keeping things quiet as and when the hosts looked to attack.
Ferdinand: 6 - Could perhaps be blamed in part for the miscommunication with James that led to Jones' injury (though it was largely the keeper's fault). Was otherwise fairly solid for all intents and purposes, but very much untested.
Woodgate: 6.5 - Was a little busier than his defensive partner, if only slightly, and to his credit, he rose to the challenge and looked a composed as ever. Whether that will be enough to ever displace John Terry - for whom he was standing in - is another matter entirely.
Bridge: 7 - Made a great run and cut-back for the opening goal and patrolled his flank well.
Beckham: 7 - As usual, produced pin-point passes for fun, only to see many of them squandered by a mis-firing front-line (despite the three goals bagged in the end).
Gerrard: 5 - Despite constantly pleading for a central midfield berth, once handed to him against the most genorous of opposition, he failed to dominate the game in any fashion, or impose himself as an attacking threat as he did on the left midweek against the United States.
Barry: 8 - England's Man of the Match. Solid in midfield, made an important run into the box to hammer home the first goal, which was vital. Played well from box to box, despite the under performance of the usually dynamic Gerrard alongside him.
Downing: 6.5 - Played some good passes - notably, the one for Bridge, which assisted Barry. However, he ultimately lacked the precision crosses of Beckham or the pace of players such as Young and Jose Cole and is unlikely to sustain his place in the side on the back of this showing.
Defoe: 7 - He scored twice, but he really wasn't that good. His first goal saw him take two or three bad touches, before scuffing a shot that found its way to the far corner and his second was a tap-in. Could and should have had more. Can be a great goal-scorer on his day, and no doubt his goals today will earn him another chance to pull the shirt on again and put in a more solid performance, of which he is definitely capable.
Ashton: 5 - Did not stake his claim to be England's answer to Luca Toni this evening. Severely lacking a large physical presence up front, on paper, Dean Ashton seems to be the answer to England's problems. The West Ham United man is fairly prolific, powerful and a hard worker. However, injury has greatly affected his ability to develop, and he has yet to replicate his best form in an England shirt. It is now a matter of how much patience Fabio Capello is willing to show.
Substitutes
Hart: 5
Jagielka: 7
Bentley: 7
Crouch: 6.5
Young: 6.5

What was the deal with that? why would they have two completely different size flags for the opening?
cause Jackula like tuh kiss ass

Thanks. Yuh know all dem 'syrians' related somehow...is only cousin making dozen in Westmoorings. She on ah real groupie scene in dem pics doh.
It's funny how racist stereotypes fly easily without fanfare when it's targeted at certain lighter skinned sides of tnt society.

the defending was poor, way too much room england get and we get punished for it. after a while they stop even trying to attack we left side with beckham and just went after cupid, men wasn't marking tight in the box, not attacking the ball in the box.
I assuming cupid have some kinda skills or else he wouldn't have been on the field, he definitely get some hard lessons today. Say what maybe it go help him in the long run. Julius James need a run in the squad asap, he shoulda been there long tim ago.
Hope KJ ain't hurt too bad
Hyland is a good player, clean 1st touch, confidence(spanner) trying to get on the ball and make things happen, hyland and whitley only men stand out to me
Cupid also-keep ya head and keep working hard.

Just back from watching the game in jersey, and i have to say the boys played fairly decent, and for all who disagree, well.... that's your prerogative.
i for one enjoyed the game , and to add to that , the youths played with poise controll and confidence, unlike the U.S. game we were not dominated and enjoyed a lion share of the possession.
i was actually bored in the 2nd half BC i thought england would've turned up the heat, but we kept them subdued for most of the game .
the only difference was that england took advantage of their opportunities and we didn't.
Kern cupid was the exception and i believe with time he will grow into a splendid player. TBH i think those youths played better than the foreign based, Lawrence was caught napping on the 2nd and 3rd goal, hislop had ah monster game , so did telesford , Kareem smith, ancil farrier, keon Daniels, autis whitley.
stern wasn't all that impressive , ince was a total mess, Edwards looked lost at some periods of the game, Roberts was non existant, so i believe we should give the youths ah chance since this was there first game together with the foreign based.
come on folks .... it's not like we played Canada or finland, it's ENGLAND PPL!!!!
to me they played better attacking football under maturana than that shyte ultra defence we played in Nuremberg under beenhakker!!!
give the youths ah fackin chance!!! they are good enough!!!!! YES they're just as good as the foreign based. all they need is time and more games like this, Win lose or draw.
allyuh really feel we coulda beat england with this being our first game as a mixed A team . stuueepppss allyuh wake up and smell the coffee nah, allyuh so busy being ashamed of what others might say( 2099 & reggeafan) that it cloud allyuh vision of what was really accomplished today.

Fella you talking shit wid dis "racist stereotype" talk. It is FACT that many of the Arab diaspora in TnT (as they do elsewhere as well) only marry within the extended family...even if they have to send away for a wife for the sons to marry. The parents frown on their kids marrying anyone darker than them...so even if they don't marry within the extended family, they damn sure better be marrying some local white/french creole. That is the preference and you can't deny it.
You just letting yuh emotions cloud yuh common sense...as they say the truth offends. There is nothing 'racist' about my statements...if anything what I said is an ethnic stereotype, but guess what? Like most stereotypes they're grounded in a measure of truth.

Redtrinigirl ah shure if yuh hear them girls talk they soundin more English than the real British, that was always their way .

"Still stick in the colonial mud"
I think its about centuries old practice of deference to lighter skinned people via the caste system as much as colonial legacy that still plagues a portion of the Indian diaspora in T&T and around the world. These things hard to shake off. In a sense it could be anti-colonial....a rejection of T&T as anything but a transitory backwoods. Who knows? That is them business.
doh let she start that racist talk jed ,the girls just like becks .When the american singers come down ,ant the local act doh get notice ,how that is wrong ,anyway i done cause she all have a indian comment .
Q doh take it personal man...there is ah degree of speculation in his comment but there's a degree of truth as well. Notice he say "a portion of the Indian diaspora". I have some Indian cousins and dem is cool peeps...same for some of the fellas I went 'Cross with and some I know from around de way. HOWEVER...I also knew some who was more white dan Indian and more uppity dan clouds. So the comment is true as it relates to a portion. It kinda offensive on the surface, but doh study it man.
No denigration meant folks, my comments were meant as a possible explanation of why some people will support another country against the one they live in. There are also some black, white and Middle Eastern descended people who don't see T&T as their true homeland either, even people on this board. For some it is a deeply held conviction and others is just shallow groupie crap they will grow out of. It is just a cultural scene with some people regardless of race.
Like RTG I support T&T first before all others. Who too stupid or starstruck to back their own country is dem business.

It is also a fact that "many" "blacks" in the laventille/morvant and other areas turn out to be bandits and murders, but I would dare make a statement like you did earlier because:
1. Stereotypes, whether they contain a sliver of truth, are still not accurate. Many does not mean all, which they imply. Many people of arab and syrian origin in T&T do not marry their own family. Many don't even live in West Moorings, west moorings probably has less syrians than other areas.
2. It is irresponsible to throw any racist remarks around.
3. It isn't even needed. You didn't need to mention the race of the girl in the picture at all, or try to make some smart comment about her background.
I would suggest using your common sense when making posts not to offend people for no real reason.

1. You are probably the only backside on this forum who took my "all Syrians" talk seriously. Do you know the meaning of "extended family". Many Syrians don't live in Westmoorings...good to know...my statement applies to those that live in Westmoorings then.
2. It is irresponsible to make allegations about "racist" statements when you clearly are unfamiliar with the meaning of the term "racist".
3. I "needed" to mention her 'race' (which I didn't, even address btw) about as much as you need to come menstruate in your response to my post.
I would suggest you find some other worthwhile crusade to go ride in search of. Hopefully that doesn't offend you too much.

Glad to see your mature and civil responses.

Yow I en too long get home from the game mih self..
I enjoyed the game dispite a moment of stress in the stands. :-X >:(
There some positives to take away and I thing the exp was good.
I hope all is well with KJtho, that was a serious Hard luck dey,...
Warrior Out.!

D WN flag save d day. When I sawwwwwwwww dat lag it eh a flag I say dey really cyah organize a drink up in a rum shop. How could dey have such a small flag jeezeeeeeeee

Glad to see your mature and civil responses.
Whatever I can do to help... :beermug:
EDIT:
R45...I am not an unreasonable fella, so I will go back and amend my last post. I cannot tell ah next man what to take offense at and in all fairness we all need to be sensitive to the fact that we are a country of many races and we should all TRY and be appropriately inclusive in our words and actions.
That said, all of us here (with little exception) are Trinis and as such 'ole talk' and 'fatigue' is part of our culture...or at least the Trini culture I'm use to. Can't speak for your experience. The 'syrian' community in TnT is a very insular community, I challenge you to argue otherwise...and it is in this vein that I made my comments. Whether they marry within their immediate family or not was never any serious assertion on my part, and quite frankly it is more than a little bit annoying when we can't even kid each other among ourselves, without someone desiring to seize some imaginary moral middle road. You probably don't want to see some of the comments we make about some of those same criminals in Laventille...and nobody raises a protest flag because we all understand the context of the comments.
To put it more colloquially...it's really not that serious.

Wham man !!yuh have an axe to grind or what. well do you know that most ah the trini culture allyuh so proud of, like pan and tambo bambo carnival and what have you also came from these areas that yuh say all the bandits and crime come from.
so why yuh had to use that as a measuring stick instead ah saying that most creative ppl come from these ereas too.
well i go let yuh in on something. i used to work for serians back in the early 80ies, running passport hustle when they had a foreign exchange quoter. business men were only allow 5000 us $ for the importation of goods a few times ah year,
regular citizens were allowed 1500 us per year, so we used to get bogus tickets from some travel agencies and buy ppl's foreign exchange quoter and give them $150, and then turn around and sell them back to the serian business men,
and the serians is the ones who put us up to it, and finance us , and give us the contacts to the travel agencies who would print the bogus tickets, so i know their runnings. plus my causin still wukin for dem doing their dirty work!!
they are the ones who bringing in the coke from columbia and vanezuela, they are the ones who bringing in the guns and ammunation for the boys in morvant , laventille, sea lots , nelson street and mango rose to use on one another!!
so yuh people just as guilty as the little bandits from these areas . maybe the food yuh grew up on is from blood money, from the same ppl yuh turning up yuh nose at

1. You don't know my race. FYI I'm neither Syrian nor Arab, doesn't matter anyway.
2. You just proved my point exactly
Thanks.

Our problem is not our defenders. Is not now and never was. its our defensive posture, starting with midfield. Our midfield is EXTREMELY weak defensively, same as last worldcup. Beenie "solve" this by making dem men live behind the ball, effectively cluttering up the passing lanes, BUT, at the same time, making them look clueless going forward with extremely poor possesion ability in attack, despite his possession,possession, mantra. Beenie and company didnt have ah clue past defence.
Maturana bringing back the attacking flair, confidence and ability to the team. It is obvious that the team eh playing NO SETTA LONG BALL FROM THE BACK STUPIDNESS a la BEENIE. The ball is coming out of the back on the ground, and at times we even look good and constructive in attack. TANK DE LORD!!!This is Maturana ball. Problem is the defensive problems have returned.
This game, its not only that midfield wasn't supporting the defence properly, especially in tracking back players and pressuring passers in midfield, the dfensive posture wasn't compact enough, the defenders were playing too far back. It was waaayyy too free for England on the ball. I personally believe this is an easy fix. Men workrate have to rise in midfield. Anton have to crack that whip, like with the U-17.
There was no wing and crossplay either. Really, where was the midfield? The upside is we actually starting to look modern and capable in possession in attack.
People, we actually CREATED A FEW DIRECT GOOD LOOKS ON GOAL,ON THE RUN, IN TRAFFIC, AGAINST A GOOD TEAM.
We good for Concacaf right now.
Socafan boy de rest of Concacaf prob sleeping better tonight after our performance today. I took in a Honduras game the other day and after watching Canada vs Brazil last night, they better than us at the moment.
What good looks on goal we had breds...we had one where Roberts shot right at James after that nice play, but other than that nothing special. I can't even say this England team was a good team, not only because is England but they eh play anything special against us...and they fielded their own youth team in the 2nd half.
Defense eh worrying me quarter as much as midfield. We doh have a fluid, creative midfield yet, that is a 4king disturbing thought.
SA 2010 is in exactly two years...so we better make the most of the time we have with these youths, who showing nice promise, and our foreign-based.

Thanks.
Well farder , yuh defending serians, so my assumptions has some validity. yuh also down playing blacks from the ghetto, so i also assume that you're are not of the black persuading. you tell me what yuh want ppl to think.
-
Grande, i tell Tallman and Patriot the same thing about the midfield at the goldcup and dem call me a mad man
You could get goats to play defence in a good system, but yuh cant get them to pass.

Well d unbeaten run under d new coach ovah and we have zero time wit d yutes. D time 2 merge d yute wit old longgggggggg goneeeeeeeee thanks 2 d blacklist. As far as I c in 2014 is d focus because it eh have no way dat d bulk ah dem fellas ready 4 Cuba, USA and Guatemala assumin dat we beat Bermuda.
Cupid shit dong he self against B'dos all yuh expect a diarrhoea against England and he did not disaapoint. As 4 KJ he betta recover quick because we know that Keane eh go b happy plus we know how d JWFF does take care ah we injured boys somebody sayyyyyyyyyy Noreiga.

I downplay nobody, I said it to illustrate a point. People get worked up (like you did) when anyone mentions a black stereotype, but when people make white/fairer skinned stereotypes, it's acceptable for some reason in a public forum and I apparently have no sense of humour and I can't take a joke. Ignorance is a funny thing ironically.

Now you just being a jackass... first off there are many 'black stereotypes' passed around here daily without anyone making one peep (lemme guess, you never see them ::) ). Secondly you miss the gist of JC's point...why is it that you automatically jump to a 'black stereotype' to make your imaginary point? Is it that you assumed I am black and therefore I might be outraged at your comment? Was that our attempt to make me see what it's like with the shoe on the other foot...by throwing out a black stereotype?
Why not an indian stereotype...or a 'spanish' or chinee one? Or is it that that 'stereotype' isn't some crazy hypothetical, but something that lies dormant inside of you such that when you want to think of something negative to use you immediate chose to slander the yutes of Morvant/Laventille?
Ignorance might be a "funny thing ironically"... but what's funny is the irony of your own ignorance.

nice loss fellas
Thanks
and Congrats on your wins against um............uh...well...
Hole on,,ah lookin but ah doh think google does go that far back in time
:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

reggaefart why yuh eh haul yuh stink mudda c0nt from here.

The midfield situation does worry me bad boy ricky. The frustrating part is that Stern and KJ for the most part thrive on bess ball

I hear yuh on that, real time waste because of horseshit
but as per usual with the rest of allyuh I will probably look past the stress, the worries and the what if's and find myself still with this side through the next year and a half

Just back from watching the game in jersey, and i have to say the boys played fairly decent, and for all who disagree, well.... that's your prerogative.
i for one enjoyed the game , and to add to that , the youths played with poise controll and confidence, unlike the U.S. game we were not dominated and enjoyed a lion share of the possession.
i was actually bored in the 2nd half BC i thought england would've turned up the heat, but we kept them subdued for most of the game .
the only difference was that england took advantage of their opportunities and we didn't.
Kern cupid was the exception and i believe with time he will grow into a splendid player. TBH i think those youths played better than the foreign based, Lawrence was caught napping on the 2nd and 3rd goal, hislop had ah monster game , so did telesford , Kareem smith, ancil farrier, keon Daniels, autis whitley.
stern wasn't all that impressive , ince was a total mess, Edwards looked lost at some periods of the game, Roberts was non existant, so i believe we should give the youths ah chance since this was there first game together with the foreign based.
come on folks .... it's not like we played Canada or finland, it's ENGLAND PPL!!!!
to me they played better attacking football under maturana than that shyte ultra defence we played in Nuremberg under beenhakker!!!
give the youths ah fackin chance!!! they are good enough!!!!! YES they're just as good as the foreign based. all they need is time and more games like this, Win lose or draw.
allyuh really feel we coulda beat england with this being our first game as a mixed A team . stuueepppss allyuh wake up and smell the coffee nah, allyuh so busy being ashamed of what others might say( 2099 & reggeafan) that it cloud allyuh vision of what was really accomplished today.
STEUPPPPPSSS We kept them what! Man England drop 3 on we and took they foot off the gas and went into a passing and possesion mode, we CHASED SHADOWS MOST OF THE SECOND HALF. IF ANYTHING WE DID NOT GET EMBARRASED FURTHER HAD THEY DECIDED TO KEEP UP THE TEMPO. It was pointless bringing Dwight on when we already down by 3, as for Forbes he did nothing!!!!
I said this the other day this squad is no where near as prepared as Beenhaker's squad. Scotland, AVERY , CYD GRAY and BIRCHALL were needed

Weary is England we just played you know, you want to compare cuba and guatemala to england, when they had the best of the prem on their team today, so what did you expect, ah better showing than that of today ? and didn't we stood toe to toe for most of the game ?
now tell meh this , how was this game any differant from the one in nuremberg two yrs ago ? i feel even if we had the same guys as 2 yrs ago today , it would be the same result as the younger squad.
cupid had a bad game , but kareem smith braught a ray of hope since he played the position much better than cupid. telesford had a good game and so did farrier. let's not jump out the window just yet, lewwe see what the jamaica game holds, since that would be ah more realistic assestment.

If you are insinuating that I made some sort of assumption then on the basis of that and your prior insistence that I employed some 'racist' stereotype, I can only conclude that English is not your first language.

I beg to differ. we were not dominated no point in this game.
we were beaten ah couple of times on the right back position , one resulting in ah goal . i would say that ince was the weakest link today, and if he was the keeper in nuremberg we would've gotten ah hand ful of goals.
all that avery cyde and sancho talk is all nostaligia from ah momentous event, but were we any worst today than two yrs ago.

Brudder JC Cupid shit down he said v B'dos what was he doin in d team? So because is Cuba et al next I must feel ok we fine we eh fine and Ray Charles could see dat and we blind and dead. KJ get injured yuh bring on Daryl Roberts and then take him off. Did I miss an injury? U obviously rate him higher than Scotland because he get d notch. So KJ limps off IMO dat was d time 2 see what Roberts have 2 offer. I guess not much.
Grey d answer is yes, si and whatever other language u know. If and I say if we had build on Germany merge dold wit d new we would b in a much betta position. If Avery etal are part of d camps we would b in a better position. If all yuh plan is 2014 say so because I eh in 4 d roller coaster ride dis time. I will go games but will become detach as I am now 2 WI cricket

You self... doh get carried away nuh, where were de Soca Warriors at the start of qualifying in 2004? It's kinda silly to try and compare this squad to the Germany squad.

Well d unbeaten run under d new coach ovah and we have zero time wit d yutes. D time 2 merge d yute wit old longgggggggg goneeeeeeeee thanks 2 d blacklist. As far as I c in 2014 is d focus because it eh have no way dat d bulk ah dem fellas ready 4 Cuba, USA and Guatemala assumin dat we beat Bermuda.
I think that's taking pessimism to the extreme... 2014? Come on. This game meant little in terms of WCQ. England B team is far better than all the Caribbean squads, and only the big two in Concacaf could be a match for them. Against Concacaf opposition we are 3-0-4 (W/L/D) since the Gold Cup.

Weary that was our first real test , where is allyuh faith ? no disrespect to you madam, but we are warriors, and some times i believe we does use that word loosly. ppl panicing like girl scouts after one loss, come on!
what if we did get lucky and beat england today, same stlye of play but just goals were scored, yuh know it would've been ah differant tune . every one would be kissing the coach @ss the players @ss and jackular's butt hole saying how optimistic they are about SA 2110.
allyuh should be more worried about KJ disposition rather than what happened today, that's the coach's job , he would iron out the kinks. positive.
-
I am worried bout KJ especially since we have done so well with injured players in d past. My suggestion CA/ Virgin or BA out ah here and seek medical treatment.
Not because d glass does b half full sometimes it does b half empty.
As 4 coach which 1 d one who speakin english or spanish because d won who speakin english doctored d tapes 4 d 1 who speakin spanish because from dem tapes he only c Whitley

One of the most glaring and upsetting things for me was the lack of creative ideas we had....in fact the lack of ideas period in terms of attacking. Most times was square pass....back pass.....pass to the flank....look to advance...if not possible....pass it back....try the other flank. No idea...nothing.

My hope is that if Carlos gets a few more games under his belt again, he'll redevelop some of the creativity he had like last year in the championship. He played so little for the season, I think he did reasonably well all things considering.

Lol. Men on this board real funny. First man complaining men making the side and cyah trap. The defence does hoof the ball and have no composure. We cannot string more than 5 pass together. People need to stop watching EPL, La Liga, Serie A etc. and judge the team on past teams and where they were three months ago. I honestly believe experience is the difference between some of these players and the WC2006 team.
The English didn't pressure too hard but I was still impressed with the difference in the team's first touch and their passing. The defence possesed the ball decently and didn't hoof. There was the play that Roberts shot over bar. That started on the ground in the defence, was a couple of passes well and resulted in a good opportunity. There were about 4 other opportunities where the ball was setup at the top of the box and I was thinking to myself if Birchy had those opportunities he would have at least tested the keeper.
As for the defense same old $h!t different day and different personnel. Men not picking up the runner. The midfield not defending and not buffering for the defense. Men in the box unmarked. I will always use Cyd as my measing stick. Anybody remember Cyd in the GC. He was the worst thing in tugs as far as I and a alot of the board was concerned. Tallest wasn't that hot early in the qualifiers either. When we lost Dog the board nearly get a heart attack. When Elcock and Rougier left the team we was worried about filling the gap. We have to move on. We play who before this? What was the preparation? EPL is better than Concacaf football. These players are playing "International" football for a career. What were we really expecting from our young College/PFL players?
I saw alot of positives in this game. Time is short. Maturana see the same game we see and the team has progressed game by game IMHO. Hopefully we would get it right in time. The game against Jam have more meaning and would probably be a better measuring stick.
Seeing as Sancho, Birchy, Dwight and company in Trinidad they should have a game between the veterans and this young team. It would be a good opportunity for them to get some pointers.
-
Just watching sky sports new , couldn't help but feel offended when one commentator said what did england learn from playing ah team that was so poor. i hope we get to meet them again in the near furture when we have cohesiveness as a team.
-
lawd... 64 page thread?? what can I say that hasn't been said...
well, my PLAYER RATINGS:
Ince - 5 - Looked uncertain on certain crosses and goalmouth action and didnt inspire confidence in the defence. Made some good saves in the 2nd half.
Lawrence 5 - Probably the best of the defensive unit but gave too much space to the England attackers and also made a couple schoolboy errors that could have been punished.
Hislop 5 - Also guilty of allowing too much space to the England attackers and was at sea in the defence. Was unable to deal with cross balls in the back and poor distribution.
Cupid 2 - That bad. Hard to imagine someone having a more torrid time at wing back and made all of us armchair critics appear like gurus with our voiced worrying about the wing backs prior to the game. My hope is that the coaching staff put a hand on his shoulder and encourage him to improve and come back stronger for the experience
Farrier 5 - Looked fairly composed on the left side and was willing to press forward and attack. Unable to stem the flow of crosses from Beckham and co, but the fact that most of the England attacks came from the left is an indication that he was doing a decent job on his flank.
Hyland 7 - Looked impressive and composed on the ball against a strong and technically sound England midfield. Tried to do too much at times, but was one of the few bright sparks for us on the pitch and is definitely one for the future. From his play, hard to imagine that he is still only 18 years old.
Daniel 5 - Looked a bit out of depth on the left and could not make an impact on the game. Guilty of making several errant passes and a lack of penetration.
Whitley 7 - The only other player on the pitch that fully looked the part against his opponents. Composed in midfield and made very few errors under constant pressure. Also did well to spread the play to the flanks but stifled by a general lack of imagination from the entire team.
Edwards 6 - Based on his touch, clearly showed that he is a class above the rest on the team but still seems unwilling to run at his marker and take on his man even when isolated 1 on 1. Often resorted to playing the ball laterally or backwards when it would have served the team better if he had a go at the left back Bridge. Needs to get that confidence back to take on players.
Kenwyne NA - Victim of a clumsy challenge that mustve left Roy Keane shitting bricks back in front his TV in Ireland. Hope the injury is not as bad as it looked because from the replay, it looked terrible.
John 6 - Tried to provide a physical presence up front and hold up the play for supporting players but was often left isolated and failed to make an impact. Also starved at service up front.
Subs:
Roberts 5 - Unable to make much of an impression against a strong defensive unit but had one shot on target to test James.
Kareem Smith 6 - Brought much needed stability to the wreckage of the right back position but guilty of several errant passes on the attacking side of the pitch.
Telesford 7 - Improved the defensive unit on the whole, was calm in possession and showed and wanted the ball to make things happen. Impressed with his composure and willingness to step up and take responsibility in the defense.
Yorke 5 - Composed in possession but not on the field long enough to make an impression on the match.
Connell 4 - Only a couple touches with the ball which would sooner be forgotten.
Forbes NA - Not enough time to make an impression.
POSITIVES:
- After playing a team of this quality, it is easier to match opponents in our region and understand the level required. Also, if a player runs out against England, then its all the less nerves he will have running out against Mexico. I'm surprised no one in 64 pages sees the underlying benefit in a cutass. Its like when you was young and sweating against the bigger boys. You go back to your small man sweat at a higher level than before.
- In 18 yr old Khaleem Hyland a star is born.
- Telesford is a viable option for our central defensive woes.
- The players, though outmatched, were not vastly out of depth technically against a world class team. The touches and control were there even if the creativity wasn't.
- Whitley is back to his old self and showed that he still has the class. Any doubts about his emergence from the post World Cup wilderness should be abated.
- The spanner on Gerrard and the inch beat on 2 men on the wing.. Hey, what can I say.. I'm a trini to de bone.
NEGATIVES:
- We are vastly deficient in the wing back department.
- Lack of creativity and imagination as players too often resorted to playing the ball backwards and laterally.
- Lack of urgency in our play.
- Carlos is still lacking confidence.
-

Well d unbeaten run under d new coach ovah and we have zero time wit d yutes. D time 2 merge d yute wit old longgggggggg goneeeeeeeee thanks 2 d blacklist. As far as I c in 2014 is d focus because it eh have no way dat d bulk ah dem fellas ready 4 Cuba, USA and Guatemala assumin dat we beat Bermuda.
Cupid shit dong he self against B'dos all yuh expect a diarrhoea against England and he did not disaapoint. As 4 KJ he betta recover quick because we know that Keane eh go b happy plus we know how d JWFF does take care ah we injured boys somebody sayyyyyyyyyy Noreiga.
Weary is England we just played you know, you want to compare cuba and guatemala to england, when they had the best of the prem on their team today, so what did you expect, ah better showing than that of today ? and didn't we stood toe to toe for most of the game ?
now tell meh this , how was this game any differant from the one in nuremberg two yrs ago ? i feel even if we had the same guys as 2 yrs ago , it would be the same result as the younger squad.

Eh Eh JC ..hear meh, I supporting any Trini team that playing anybody becuz at de end of the day I cyar back another country against my own.That being said,these youths simply not ready.We need to be playing our BEST squad and that is the team that play England in de WC.

Lol. Men on this board real funny. First man complaining men making the side and cyah trap. The defence does hoof the ball and have no composure. We cannot string more than 5 pass together. People need to stop watching EPL, La Liga, Serie A etc. and judge the team on past teams and where they were three months ago. I honestly believe experience is the difference between some of these players and the WC2006 team.
The English didn't pressure too hard but I was still impressed with the difference in the team's first touch and their passing. The defence possesed the ball decently and didn't hoof. There was the play that Roberts shot over bar. That started on the ground in the defence, was a couple of passes well and resulted in a good opportunity. There were about 4 other opportunities where the ball was setup at the top of the box and I was thinking to myself if Birchy had those opportunities he would have at least tested the keeper.
As for the defense same old $h!t different day and different personnel. Men not picking up the runner. The midfield not defending and not buffering for the defense. Men in the box unmarked. I will always use Cyd as my measing stick. Anybody remember Cyd in the GC. He was the worst thing in tugs as far as I and a alot of the board was concerned. Tallest wasn't that hot early in the qualifiers either. When we lost Dog the board nearly get a heart attack. When Elcock and Rougier left the team we was worried about filling the gap. We have to move on. We play who before this? What was the preparation? EPL is better than Concacaf football. These players are playing "International" football for a career. What were we really expecting from our young College/PFL players?
I saw alot of positives in this game. Time is short. Maturana see the same game we see and the team has progressed game by game IMHO. Hopefully we would get it right in time. The game against Jam have more meaning and would probably be a better measuring stick.
Seeing as Sancho, Burchy, Dwight and company in Trinidad they should have a game between the veterans and this young team. It would be a good opportunity for them to get some pointers.
Thank yuh man. first real honest response all night. these fellas played against season pro's and IMO they didn't do too bad. thanks again brother for bringing some prospective to this emotionally charged topic.

So I much watch which league so I will b happy wit what I saw 2 day ok then as 4 d FSC report dey learn dat u play minnows because d minnows boss have d votes. Peeps real thin skin so what we were dissed by FSC D JWFF diss we by blackliting we players. I hear me mum and Sancho thu dem felllas after d WC was rearin 2 go but dey were kick in d rear instead

I don't think Whitley was creative enough (a 5.5 not a 7), otherwise I agree with most of your assessments.

Thank u Berris dey worse dan a false ripe mango but I guess I suppose 2 eat it. I sorryyyyyyyy

objectively, i seeing exactly where R45 coming from..
an unnecessary negative stereotypical statement was made about the syrian community.. so he juxtaposed a negative stereotypical statement about blacks to invoke a "shoe on the other foot" reaction if you will..
only obvious that it would be about the black community given that the demographic of this board is predominantly black (and doh come asking me if i do ah census when its pretty obvious given the content of the posts i see here).. Basically, "how would you feel if i made this stereotypical statements about blacks in laventille?".. asking why he didnt say something positive is not applicable because the issue in the first place was the negative stereotype.
Whether or not allyuh take offence to what the man saying and regardless of how allyuh feel about syrians, allyuh should halt allyuh ignorance and see the man point..

WELL WELL!!...All de people in here who was mad over Hyland selection not saying sh*t bout that issue anymore..Now is evident why Maturana has him in the squad..For a player of his age that does not have much international experience he was impressive...Lawrence was not impressive same for Ince...Makes me wonder if Sancho, Jack, Gray and all of de older fellas allyuh crying bout,were to come back how would they perform with this team!!

Well d unbeaten run under d new coach ovah and we have zero time wit d yutes. D time 2 merge d yute wit old longgggggggg goneeeeeeeee thanks 2 d blacklist. As far as I c in 2014 is d focus because it eh have no way dat d bulk ah dem fellas ready 4 Cuba, USA and Guatemala assumin dat we beat Bermuda.
Cupid shit dong he self against B'dos all yuh expect a diarrhoea against England and he did not disaapoint. As 4 KJ he betta recover quick because we know that Keane eh go b happy plus we know how d JWFF does take care ah we injured boys somebody sayyyyyyyyyy Noreiga.
Weary is England we just played you know, you want to compare cuba and guatemala to england, when they had the best of the prem on their team today, so what did you expect, ah better showing than that of today ? and didn't we stood toe to toe for most of the game ?
now tell meh this , how was this game any differant from the one in nuremberg two yrs ago ? i feel even if we had the same guys as 2 yrs ago , it would be the same result as the younger squad.
cupid had a bad game , but kareem smith braught a ray of hope since he played the position much better than cupid. telesford had a good game and so did farrier. let's not jump out the window just yet, lewwe see what the jamaica game holds, since that would be ah more realistic assestment.
Eh Eh JC ..hear meh, I supporting any Trini team that playing anybody becuz at de end of the day I cyar back another country against my own.That being said,these youths simply not ready.We need to be playing our BEST squad and that is the team that play England in de WC. I not taking anything away from de youths but if we want to qualify for WC 2010 we have to have our BEST players and de blacklisted players are our BEST.Now I know yuh must be saying why harp on de past as jackass warner not letting dem play, but just like you I want my country to go to SA WC2010.The time for experimenting done 2 years ago,ah c0nt name jack warner dismantle ah very good WC team that IMO if kept together wudda have beaten England today and I dead serious.But but under nothing but bad mind and greed our football is suffering and gone back many many years.While you might think we shud be looking forward and supporting de youths what yuh not realizing is we wasting de talent we have NOW to get us back to the WC. I sorry buh I cyar see it any other way.Instead ah bringing in one or two youths to play with our pros we bringing we pros to play with de youths and that is a recipe for failure.Case in point, Stern John was scrubbing bench before he got his chance,and although he prove he is ah special talent he had to watch Dwight and Latas first. These youths wasn't scrubbin no bench and watching Stern John or Dwight Yorke or Latas or Sancho or Birchall or Lawerence or Shaka or Carlos or Whitley or KJ or Spann or Avery or Dog or Cyd or Bleeder or any ah de 2006 WC team.IMO de youths were never given the chance to know what it is to earn dey pick and carry on de Soca Warriors as we know it.So what happen to Soca Warriors that were on de bench for de WC 2006,yuh doh think dem breddas deserver to to get their chance to step up now.Ah c0nt name jack warner make it clear,we starting over from scratch.Now is like de pros have to prove themselves all over again,pure f**kery imo.Hyland and Telesford shud be in the team they definately have what it takes,but right now dais about it for the youths.
So JC doh expect miracles with these youths right now ,we eh even sure to make another WC under this jackass warner regime.Like ah say I backing any team TnT put on de pitch but I have to be real and realize if this is de best we have to offer right now we definately NOT going to SA2010,you me and de whole ah TnT cud support and bawl as loud as we want, it is not going to change the fact that we BEST hope for qualifying unfortunately blacklisted and need to be back on de pitch with their fellow Soca Warriors.
Ah guess it's all ah matter of prospective berris. you were looking for a win , while i was looking for a challenge, remember my words, these youths would suprise ppl in ah positive way.
i have a good feeling about this new squad, and maybe the blacklist was a blessing in disguise, i think we're going to SA 2010. keep the faith bro , and don't believe the hype. ppl are just upset bc we lost in ah silly way and our starlet was injured, but trust meh horse, things will work out, just be patient. positive.

Same here bro. give these fellas six more months of continual playing time together, with the coach and with each other then watch!!! i like these youths , their game is clean and they will improve with time , just watch . lawrence and ince sh!t they self today, the locals had a far better game. ppl not seeing the big picture.

Good point.
Yorke and Latas retire.
Birchall , the jury still out on his season.
Avery , where is he ?
Cyd breaking his ankle in India.
Sancho , maybe hard done by
Dog doh need this , should try to make as much money as he can with Raith.
Shaka retire.
Cornell Glen like he disappear.
Jack suffer this season.
Theobald was used as a man marker by Beenie, not in Maturana's plans.
The coach use Stern , KJ, Lawrence, Edwards , Whitley , Ince from the last campaign.
Hyland is a revelation and going to make it big.
Other standouts for me is Osie and Darryly Roberts.
Our defence has always been a problem, we back to 2004 when we used to let in goals every game in the first 15mins, the first thing Beenie did was get the midfielders and defence to learn to concentrate from the first whistle to avoid that, Mataruna will have to do the same.
Apart from that the coach should seriously consider forming a starting defence from local based only and playing Lawrence as a sweeper.
This team will get better and where they are starting from is not bad.
Remember the 2006 socawarriors get licks from everybody on their pre world cup tour and were still able to make us proud.

Says the man who himself uses the 'N' word to describe black people in Trinidad...says the man who defends Wim Risjberger when he himself made an "unnecessary negative stereotypical statement" about Trinidadians liming and drinking under a coconut tree. Apparently some unnecessary negative stereotypical statements are more acceptable than others.

I ventured no opinion on the matter itself, just about allyuh collective negligence of the man's position. That to me is plain ignorance.

This blacklist thing.
What would the team look like if there was no Blacklist ?
Yorke retired
Latas retired
Dog injured and need knee surgery, should not risk it on a nonpaying job.Age is a factor
Cyd Gray playing in India (broken ankle) Aghe is a factor
Bleeder is a man marker as invented by Beenie.
Avery , I don't know what's up with him.
Cornell Glen continuously injured.
Birchall . based on the season he had would you pick him?
Shaka retired.
Jack suffer this season.
Sancho maybe he is being unfairly treated..
Stern, KJ, Edwards, Whitley, Ince, Lawrence play forget the cameo by (Yorke)
Even without the blacklist would the team really have looked too different

Log post in diary? You feel is ah professional man-stalker like you or what? All it took was a quick "search" of the term and there your post was on the first page. Doubly funny considering the lengths you went to in order to try and get personal information on me some months back. But then again, yuh was never bashful about yuh own hypocrisy...as underscored by this post.
As for collective "negligence" (stop using $5 dollar words the definition of which yuh clearly don't understand)...how about you neglecting the fact that ethnic stereotypes are bandied about on this forum on a regular basis and most with common sense know to take them with a grain of salt? Presumably is ah bunch of Trinidadians interacting among we self here...apparently that is presuming too much.
Yuh know what though... me eh really business with no more ah dis long talk nah. Who want to mount moral crusade could damn well start campaign bus fuh all care. Hard luck dey.

It never surprises me how quickly disussions on this board could descend into chaos.
Yes, syrians only marry "their" kind or as close as possible to it, otherwise they get kick out de community and lock off from the family. I know a couple men who married their black girlfriends and get de treatment. But, that said, what de fack dat have to do with a football forum?
Yes, alot of the criminals and crime and murders committed in T&T come from the Laventille/Morvant area. But yuh know what? Latapy and half de same facking Soca Warriors team dat all ah we on dis board to support come from there too! Bear that in mind next time yuh want to bring down de black ghetto.
Now, back to the original ting. No, dem two gyal was not de ones I see on TV up here (think was Sky Sports). So dat means it had real indian girls (maybe girls of other ethnic persuasions, but I doubt it) out there yesterday dress up in full Ingerland regalia.
I maintain, it was an embarrassment and an indication of the poor mental state of some members of the Trinidadian diaspora, for women to be wearing the uniform of and obviously supporting the opposition of your countrymen. Poor, poor, poor.

I managed to catch the first half just before the 2nd goal, don't really watch England tuned in to see KJ and CE but missed KJ injury. (could be a very long season next season).
I take it the lad at right back is only young, looked nervous and positionally very poor. I thought you weren't that well organised at the back ( just like sunderland really ;D).
Carlos just played like he has for the club since coming back, seems nervous about tackling, should of done better for Englands 2nd goal and helped the lad out a bit more. He needs to get his head right somehow.
I don't think you were that bad considering the numbers you have to choose from from what I seen.

Birchall . based on the season he had would you pick him?
Shaka retired.
Jack suffer this season.
Sancho maybe he is being unfairly treated..
Stern, KJ, Edwards, Whitley, Ince, Lawrence play forget the cameo by (Yorke)
Even without the blacklist would the team really have looked too different
Except that they would have been playing together for the last two years and we would have some cohesion. Don't discount the longeraching effects of the blacklist

Watch when West Indies playing India in de oval same shit does go on
-
I was lookin' out for people wearin' black in support of the black-listed players, but it look to me like everybody was wearing WHITE!
So did Jack arrange for all de black shirts to be confiscated at the gates or did de TV cameras just not pick it up?
-
Boy.. What yuh guh do..
Abot 12 of us wore black as discussed.
In the end the ony thing the black did was to identify us as controlling the Big Flag

This game has generated more interest than ever suggesting that expectations were not in line with the performance - or people are more vocal about the team given the last two years of Jack.

Hmm...I guess this is why I am an armchair critic and not a coach.
I think Hyland had a horrible game and probably lost whatever contract offers he could have had. I have to watch the game on tv now because in the stadium it looked like he did not make ONE pass to a player in white all game.
Yes he may have hustled and been involved in the game but (to me) he gave the ball away EVERY SINGLE TIME he had it.

I ain't get to see the game, but even on English message boards, they talking bout how good Hyland (and Whitley) play.

On another note, both Alan Hansen and Alan Shearer (the BBC football pundits) both wore solid black shirts in the studio, apparently they got the memo

This blacklist thing.
What would the team look like if there was no Blacklist ?
Yorke retired
Latas retired
Dog injured and need knee surgery, should not risk it on a nonpaying job.Age is a factor
Cyd Gray playing in India (broken ankle) Aghe is a factor
Bleeder is a man marker as invented by Beenie.

We were simply outclassed. England were bigger, stronger, faster and had much better technique. They played the game at their own walking pace and we did nothing to force the issue.
We did look organized though, and not straggly like I have seen us look before.
Having said that, if England were to push the tempo, I have a feeling that we would have looked much worse.
Sadly Yorkie is still the only player on the team who can make a 30 yard pass with any degree of accuracy. But Hyland was breath of fresh air. And he's only 18, wow.
All a good experience though and we will be better for it. Get well soon Kenwyne!

Well spidey, if i didnt see you at the game i would have never thought that u saw it. Hyland was very impressive. He showed so much composure on the ball for an 18 year old today. I was very impressed.
Whitley did very well today. Carlos grew in confidence as the game went on while stern held up the ball well at times
We need two wing backs though!!
I feeling better about the first group stage though!!
ah love it!!

That uniform looks strangely similar to the one worn in Bahrain, which we never saw again

I was dey in black..i come and check allyuh.....buh it didnt have no seats. I see oconnorg looking sour as a warner without money. The 3 ppl i came with wore black. I saw a few ppl wearing black coming in as i was waiting for someone outside.......i dunno how many just wanted to be different and how many actually had a meaning behind it. Given the white.....unless it was a thick band of people sitting together......that black would have been hard to see.
-
My observation of the game and what’s lacking in our system in order to compete.
1. The defense was caught ball watching instead of man marking which resulted in two goals.
2. Our strikers are still not shooting the ball from outside the 18 yard…example Carlos holding unto the ball and passing up on the opportunity with a left footer shot first couple min of the game.
3. Our style of play is still to lackadaisical. The passing or decision making is still to relaxed. They needed to move faster with crisps passing…to much standing around!
4. The ball control was there as always. For a younger team, we did well against them. Without the blacklist and crap Jones injury…we would have giving them much more of a challenge.
5. Our right wingers and right back were not taking advantage of what they were using against us…sprinting fast with the ball thru the midfield opened up the wing plays continuously against us.
6. Our movement off the ball was also a problem. When a midfielder of the opposition moved forward with the ball the whole midfield attacked…not just one player. Again this might have been a problem with fitness or maybe not understanding the total plan of giving options, even if you’re not given the pass you can cause a distraction.
7. I almost forgot this one…There was no real pressure on the ball…we needed to make more tackles in the midfield. The Defense also was not sharp enough with first time tackles.
Hopefully they learned a lesson from that experience and do better next time...thank GOD it was ah friendly. ;)

i eh care who want to cuss for me calling them out..
how i supposed to find all the memorable pre-game pics in a 75 page thread?
i appreciate that you guys have to stem the glut of England game threads on the board, but ffs exercise some common sense nuh fellahs.
When you merge something into that monster you effectively kill the thread that was in progress.

This is one of the reasons, I just don't bother wth these kinds of threads after a while.
I just don't have the time time to scan every page from top to bottom to find out the gist fo the thread. At best I just jump into the last two or three pages.
O jeez we hadda set o pages priior to an dduring the game.
We coudln't have a post game thread. There's no f*&*^%^& way I going through over 40 odd pages to know what going on...that is called a pull stones.

oh gaaad Omar thread get merge quick boy :rotfl:

I was looking out for it, but hoping I was wrong. But I told my flatmate that they will attack Kenwyne or whoever they think pose a threat, de english does play dutty. Dat is how they do it in the EPL. She laugh, thinking I'm going over board.
Yet in the first 8 mins of the game, Stern get ramsack twice, one resulting in penalty given to us, and Kenwyne get completely mash up. Coincidence? You tell me.
-
I have come to realize that our football is all hype leading up to the games and have resigned myself to the fact that all we watch and will continue to be watching is mid-level football. Can someone really tell me why de f**k Dwight played, considering we have a qualifier two weeks away?
-
Yeah thats right...
anything you dont want nobody to see you just have to HIDE IT in here..
-
Again I'll say it here,although our defence look like they're the problem and could have done better our real problem is the midfield who make our defence look bad.Is anyone being aggressive in our midfield tackling, running back and helping the defence,making sure their midfielders doh have all that room.........NO.
Four of the 5 defenders used yesterday did'nt have that bad a game.

Just back from watching the game in jersey, and i have to say the boys played fairly decent, and for all who disagree, well.... that's your prerogative.
i for one enjoyed the game , and to add to that , the youths played with poise controll and confidence, unlike the U.S. game we were not dominated and enjoyed a lion share of the possession.
i was actually bored in the 2nd half BC i thought england would've turned up the heat, but we kept them subdued for most of the game .
the only difference was that england took advantage of their opportunities and we didn't.
Kern cupid was the exception and i believe with time he will grow into a splendid player. TBH i think those youths played better than the foreign based, Lawrence was caught napping on the 2nd and 3rd goal, hislop had ah monster game , so did telesford , Kareem smith, ancil farrier, keon Daniels, autis whitley.
stern wasn't all that impressive , ince was a total mess, Edwards looked lost at some periods of the game, Roberts was non existant, so i believe we should give the youths ah chance since this was there first game together with the foreign based.
come on folks .... it's not like we played Canada or finland, it's ENGLAND PPL!!!!
to me they played better attacking football under maturana than that shyte ultra defence we played in Nuremberg under beenhakker!!!
give the youths ah fackin chance!!! they are good enough!!!!! YES they're just as good as the foreign based. all they need is time and more games like this, Win lose or draw.
allyuh really feel we coulda beat england with this being our first game as a mixed A team . stuueepppss allyuh wake up and smell the coffee nah, allyuh so busy being ashamed of what others might say( 2099 & reggeafan) that it cloud allyuh vision of what was really accomplished today.
STEUPPPPPSSS We kept them what! Man England drop 3 on we and took they foot off the gas and went into a passing and possesion mode, we CHASED SHADOWS MOST OF THE SECOND HALF. IF ANYTHING WE DID NOT GET EMBARRASED FURTHER HAD THEY DECIDED TO KEEP UP THE TEMPO. It was pointless bringing Dwight on when we already down by 3, as for Forbes he did nothing!!!!
I said this the other day this squad is no where near as prepared as Beenhaker's squad. Scotland, AVERY , CYD GRAY and BIRCHALL were needed
To me in the 2nd half England was just laying off our players and waiting for us to give them the ball....
Right through they were getting numbers behind the ball in their half and allowing us to pass the ball to each other with no real threat, and when we made the mistake, they were counter attacking at pace.
---------------
As some one put it before, we were missing a leader out on the field. In the d 1st half beckham was dictating things....I see the man get a ball just outside their own 18yd box and then make a pass through the midfield and then the play went up the left wing and when it was crossed to the right wing corner beckham done reach up to recieve it and knock it back for another player to cross it back in. They had their plays organised and know what to do to complete a play.
When we got the ball.....it was just passed around in the middle and defense until we gave it back to them. So where were the planned runs and plays for us...or were we making it up or looking for ideas as we went along?
The few times a couple of our players showed some individual skill and really took on the English, it resulted in at least a shot or us reaching in their 18yd box. I dunno, maybe our players discounted their own talents and were intimidated or afraid to play/ tackle...then again....they were probably ordered not to tackle ?
and whats up with Ince real spilling the ball? .....but at least he chest trap a crouch header on goal and give the crowd something to cheer about.... :rotfl:
-
Again I'll say it here,although our defence look like they're the problem and could have done better our real problem is the midfield who make our defence look bad.Is anyone being aggressive in our midfield tackling, running back and helping the defence,making sure their midfielders doh have all that room.........NO.

It have men here still bad talking Beenie for being "too defensive-minded." So they getting the kinda football they want, I guess.

....sitting together for future games might not be as hard as yesterday....ah eh expect dat many people against Bermuda for example....
however, I need to mull it over and would love some input into the possibility of doing it for future games and spreading the word a bit wider than just us on here....

Without the blacklist coming to an end there is little hope for 2010, which was slim already. The great thing about Beenhakker was the kind of total football he used to coach the team. Now without a strong creative mid look like the coach must emphasize cohesion and stressing a measure of creativity or at least bravery from every member of the team. Lord I hate to say it but if only Hardest could pull himself together for just two more years, that might be add a spark to the team.
Maturana "experiments" lasting a little too long in my books. Is time to chook in Connell and Samuel on the wing and let them fight it out and see what Keon Daniel or somebody else have in the middle of the field. Time to get Sealy and Scotland in the mix. Time to see if Theobald can offer something. What about Andrei Pacheco?
Time to call Brent Sanch back into this squad so he and Lawrence can mentor the younger players like Cupid and Hislop.
Maturana have to begin trying more players in place of some favourites who really not living up to hype.

You self... doh get carried away nuh, where were de Soca Warriors at the start of qualifying in 2004? It's kinda silly to try and compare this squad to the Germany squad.
I will give you that, my last statement may have been out of whack, but please don't tell me we kept England at bay.

Well you know Shearer is m'boy longtime so u must expect him to back me ;D ! I mean, when all of allyuh used to say he was shite I stand by him til the end, so is the least i expect in return.
-
My thoughts... we played an very inexperience team.. most of those new guys are still in a spell, they were playing the biggest game of their life. All the England player play in EPL, we actually had jut 1 1/2 EPL players on the pitch yesterday. Have faith, the boys would come around by the time we play the USA.
Last tme out, we didnt look too good when we play Haiti in the friendly before playing the USA, with a few more friendly with some ok team Venezuela, Colombia, Peru etc), the guys would get there..

The Coach sucks.
:whistling: wim is laughing

bring back bertille if we paying all da money for a foreighn and d team playing like when bertille was in charge well we might as well bring back bertille wim dam sure aint coming back or invest in a better coach...

Abot 12 of us wore black as discussed.
That is ah serious disappointment........ :-[
Man i eh go lie, i put on d black, came to the stadium and immediately had to take it off... People underestimate sitting in a Hot, humid stadium for 7 hours trying to manage a big ass flag and people not co-operating at all.
Pressah!!!
Boy, men was moving stingy with the flag...it only reach the first few rows and stick.....no one wanted to pass it down to we in the middle of the stand. twice it come out and twice it stick 2 rows before we.
I wonder if the glasses man allyuh tlaking bout is the same fella who didnt want to pass the flag down.......i think i might have a pic with him holding the flag yes...i go look and see

Facebook may be a good tool to help spread the word..............start a group...........emails to the media....maybe 1 of them might grab the story and run with it
-
A group was started....and while mention was made on Andre's show on Thursday night and again on Synergy on Saturday, it wasn't really that widespread in the media...
A group saw Sancho with it and wanted 50 - 100 on Friday night/Saturday but that was too late..
Anyway I'm wearing mine till the boys get their money and/or the ones that could still make the team are given a chance again...Birchall, Sancho, Cyd, Glenn...
-
could u post d group link please

you watch another game boss
Hmm...must have been the angle at which I sat.
Then again, he never impressed me in any of the other games either and he keeps getting rated so I guess I probably looking at the wrong things.
The spanner was nice tho, but Gerrard show him very quickly why we doh see beat sharing so in the EPL. Imagine getting lash on your ankle so every spanner u share, whether is training or game. U bound to do it less and less each month...

As I viewd the game with other trini men in foreign it was clear to me that our lack of anticpation on defense and in attack led to the majority of the troubles we were having during the game. The combination of our lack of our defensive antipation and their quality movement off the ball resulted in the english players often receiving balls under no ppressure. All three goals had English first attackers finishing with defenders in the vincinity watching or getting there a few seconds too late.
England didn't do us the same favor so we were often under pressure due to their defensve anticipation. So as our players were in the process of recieving the ball their was always an english player on him.
We struggled to maintain possession under these circumtances becusae we were clearly having problems with the pressure they were putting us under. Our lack of offensive antipation contributed to the player on the ball not having real effective options to move the ball forward.
As the game went along and they softened their presure on the ball we were able to move the ball a bit better.

This blacklist thing.
What would the team look like if there was no Blacklist ?
Yorke retired
Latas retired
Dog injured and need knee surgery, should not risk it on a nonpaying job.Age is a factor
Cyd Gray playing in India (broken ankle) Aghe is a factor
Bleeder is a man marker as invented by Beenie.
Avery , I don't know what's up with him.
Cornell Glen continuously injured.
Birchall . based on the season he had would you pick him?
Shaka retired.
Jack suffer this season.
Sancho maybe he is being unfairly treated..
Stern, KJ, Edwards, Whitley, Ince, Lawrence play forget the cameo by (Yorke)
Even without the blacklist would the team really have looked too different
Steupppps ... that shit eh deserve ah response ,go back and do yuh facking home work and den bump yuh gums,right now yuh just blowing wind thru yuh ass.
Maybe you just can't put a coherent response together because yuh head so far up yuh constipated backside.

I understand what u saying there but that is one thing I cannot blame the team for. It was not their lack of anticipation but the speed of thought of the english and the off the ball movement.That is what separates us from true professionals.
This is what Beenie was referring to when he kept saying that "the pace of the pro league is too slow and he can't pick players from there". You explain it better by using the word anticipation. they were not prepared for the off the ball movement and switching thought from attack to defense at a moment's notice. I think Mourinho say somewhere that it takes 1 point something secs to turn a successful defence into an attack and that is the key to victory.
That is what Beenie meant regarding the locals, speed of thought, not physical speed.
But the youths not going to learn that without this exposure, so that is why I not blaming the team for that.

JDB u from San Juan so I know u iz a smart fella. Everbody after WC was sayin dat Yorke etal go stick around 4 a 2 yrs 2 gel wit d new fellas so it go have a smooth transition from old 2 new.

Scalpers make low $core
By Leiselle Maraj (Newsday)
Monday, June 2 2008
Football fans, disappointed after tickets for the highly anticipated rematch between Trinidad and Tobago and England sold out in less than two days after being issued, were in their glee yesterday as scalpers were out in their numbers prior to the match at the Hasely Crawford Stadium, Port-of-Spain.
Ticket holders quickly called relatives and friends upon arriving at the venue asking if they were still interested in attending the game. Scalpers were seen along Wrightson Road, near Trinidad Automobiles Ltd, and the Audrey Jeffers Highway opposite MovieTowne, selling tickets for as low as $200 for uncovered stands and $400 for covered stands.
When asked why tickets were priced lower than the original prices of $300 for uncovered and $600 for covered seats, one scalper, who refused to give his name, said his tickets were priced according to sales. “People already have their tickets so hardly anybody buying. Right now I’m just trying to get rid of what I have,” he said at about 3 pm.
Another ticket scalper, who gave his name as Selwyn, said while his tickets were selling reasonably well at two tickets for uncovered seats at $500, other scalpers already lowered their prices so he had no choice but to follow suit. “It depends on where you sell your tickets though,” he said as he opted to ply his trade on the outskirts of the crowd entering the stadium rather than in the thick of things.
Nikita Jackson was one of the many fans who made their way to the stadium hoping for some way to enter the venue. “I was so disappointed when I heard tickets were gone before I even had a chance to call my friends to ask if they were going, now I’m relieved that I got a ticket and glad I did not get through in the first place,” she said after purchasing her ticket at $250 for a seat in the uncovered stands.
Despite the scalpers, the traffic, crowds and parking were kept under control by police officers stationed in and around the stadium. Crowds began arriving when gates opened at 1pm and at about 2.30 pm, most of the free space in the vicinity of the venue was already filled with cars. Vehicles also filled the parking lot at MovieTowne. Parked vehicles, however, did not prove to be an interruption of the smooth flow of traffic around the venue.
Fans were seen congregating at the entrance leading up to the ticket collection area at the stadium, getting their flags, bandannas, hats and other paraphernalia as well as getting their faces airbrushed.
English fans, although few and far between, were not intimidated by the Soca Warriors’ support. A few even had their own limes, setting their coolers on the grassy area opposite the stadium to mix drinks and indulge in some small talk before entering the stadium.
The Green Park at the left of MovieTowne was another “English friendly” area. Tents were erected and despite the sounds of soca coming from large speakers, large national flags of England were mounted between tent poles, offering refuge in the sea of white converging on the stadium.

WELL WELL!!...All de people in here who was mad over Hyland selection not saying sh*t bout that issue anymore..Now is evident why Maturana has him in the squad..For a player of his age that does not have much international experience he was impressive...Lawrence was not impressive same for Ince...Makes me wonder if Sancho, Jack, Gray and all of de older fellas allyuh crying bout,were to come back how would they perform with this team!!
I think we getting carried away with Hyland performance. The guy had a decent game. Take the game for instance, if that was a team not involving T&T how much of us would have really sit down and watch that garbage? We giving props generously. Don't get me wrong the first time I see Hyland was the ash Wednesday and I saw the potential that is there. However, a lot of work has to be done. So what if he spanner Gerard? Do you think if Gerard is playing for a Champion league or Prem title he would be walking around the field (well except for this last season gone here ;D )?
We have to keep things in perspective and not get caught up and start congratulating mediocrity. The guys did not look good and if they are the players to take the field for qualifiers, then we have a loooooooooong way to go. Burying your head in the sand so posters here won't call you a waggonist or say you don't know football would not change the fact that we were terrible. We bad talk the US team all how when they played england, but giving our team props. How could that be? We are akin to the TTFF mentality. If the US was clueless and show no kind of creativity, then woe is we.
Lets get real guys, supporting players is not just telling them how good they are or were, but keeping them real too. Many of the guys showed they learnt nothing from the previous games and this should be made known to them. As always guys are comfortable, because they know the politics that is going on in T&T football so they know their chances of playing are really high.
-
anyone know IF and WHEN the game showing on TV again??
if they smart they would show something like that over
-
Seon Power, your country needs you!!
tings that bad??!?

Elan,
Lemme tell you what I see in Hyland.
He was up against a world class midfield in Gerrard, Beckham, Barry and Downing. In the early portions of the game, several times he got the ball with players putting severe pressure on him and he still looked composed and unhussled.. They didnt take the ball off of him and I was impressed by his trapping and first touch.
He wasn't hurrying off the pass.. He was showing heself providing the option for the wing backs and defense to bring the ball out. Sometimes he would keep posssession, if a defender biting he would issue a lil check back and spread the ball to the next flank.. Other times he would string the ball through for Stern to collect with his back to the defense.. He was working hard too and wasn't physically outmatched. And yes the spanner was a nice lil touch too that showed some confidence.
On the flip side there were times when he was trying too hard instead of playing the simple ball and he gave up possession with some bad pass.. Also as the game went on, the central midfield got a bit lost but could be down to fatigue.
Ok hear de magic word now...
HE IS 18 YEARS OLD.
When last have we had an 18 year old player who could hold his own against premiership oppostiion?
-
Seon Power tings cyah b sooooooooooo badddddddd but den again Cupid on d side
Dais like trading a piper for a spranger, or a jalopy for ah lemon.
-
We were simply outclassed. England were bigger, stronger, faster and had much better technique. They played the game at their own walking pace and we did nothing to force the issue.
We did look organized though, and not straggly like I have seen us look before.
Having said that, if England were to push the tempo, I have a feeling that we would have looked much worse.
Sadly Yorkie is still the only player on the team who can make a 30 yard pass with any degree of accuracy. But Hyland was breath of fresh air. And he's only 18, wow.
All a good experience though and we will be better for it. Get well soon Kenwyne!
Nah dread!! you need to get yuh eyes checked pronto. dominated ? bigger stronger ? which game you watch ? i was so bored that i wondered if was really england we were playing.
to me we played more attacking football than in nuremberg , and we knocked the ball better and held possesion much longer. give the youths ah chance , they playing much better than the gold cup team, much better.
-
Seon Power is a very good player. Kern Cupid too.
Dem jes raw. Fortunately fuh dem, dey not going to be going up against de calibre of opposition dat dey were exposed to yesterday any time soon.
They will do well against the likes of Bermuda et al which will give them confidence ahead of the battles with the powers in CONCACAF.
-
Elan nobody getting carried away by Hyland..all some man in here saying is his selection in the team was justified based on his performance (did I mention anthything bout a bleddy spanner or did I mention "his performance!!")..Now we see why Maturana is impressed with the 18 year old..He played better than most of de fellas who rep the warriors in de game...so all that writting yuh did still cant erase that de man deserve to be on the team...and all de complaining allyuh fellas was doing about his selection was unjust..

Grenada hold England C
By Mike Appleby in Grenada. (theFA.com)
Sunday, 01 June 2008.
Grenada 1-1 England C
Langaigne 30
Morison 77
International Friendly
The National Stadium, St. George's
Saturday 31 May 2008
England C were held to a 1-1 draw by Grenada on Saturday afternoon at a sun drenched National Stadium in the Island’s capital St George’s in what is the first of two games being played in the Caribbean.
After a quiet opening to the game, the first opportunity fell to the home side when Dennis Rennie was played through on goal but failed to control the ball properly and then shot wide.
England’s first chance came after 15 minutes when Andy Burgess hit a superb shot from 20 yards which Charles in the home goal gathered at the second attempt.
The visitors were by now dominating the game with their slick one and two touch movement, which has become a trademark for the team and caught the home side out on a number of occasions.
Martyn Woolford in particular was having a fine debut and proved to be a constant threat down the left and from one such run and cross in the 17th minute, Steve Morison headed just over and four minutes later the same player headed over again following a long throw from Lewis Chalmers.
On 26 minutes Morison again headed narrowly wide following an excellent cross from Kevin Nicholson.
All of England’s control looked in vain on the half hour mark though, when the home side took the lead against the run of play when a through ball from Grenada’s midfield beat the offside trap, allowing Cassim Langaigne to keep his head and slot the ball past Scott Tynan.
This reverse did not deter England and they continued to push forward. With half time approaching, Mitchell Cole was felled by what appeared to be a punch from the home keeper but to everyone’s amazement, referee Bedeau waved away all appeals for a penalty and gave a corner.
There followed four corners in succession with England going close on each occasion. Firstly Wayne Hatswell powered a header against the bar, then Chalmers saw a volley turned away by Charles, before Morision clipped the angle of post and bar and finally Cole just failed to connect with a knock down from Michael Morrison. England continued to pour forward and twice in the final minute of the half they almost snatched an equaliser through Hatswell and then Burgess.
The second half began with Grenada almost adding a second when Nigel Bishop latched onto a pass from Dennis Rennie and bore down on goal, but Tynan pulled off a superb safe by diving at Bishop’s feet and taking the ball cleanly.
This again spurred on the visitors as they continued to take the game to their hosts, who were visibly surprised by the skill and energy levels of the England team.
Fairclough made two changes after 67 minutes replacing Daniel Gleeson and Woolford with Russell Penn and Shaun Harrad, and it was Penn who almost contributed to the equaliser when he crossed for Morrison to head against the post.
There followed a bizarre incident after 70 minutes when substitute goalkeeper Searls and Cole collided in the six yard area. Cole quickly recovered after treatment, but Searls was eventually carried off. The Grenada bench then tried to replace him with Charles who had been substituted at half-time. Their error was quickly pointed out to them and an outfield player finally took over in goal.
England finally got the reward their efforts deserved in the 77th minute when Morison climbed above the home defence to head home a John Brayford cross, much to the delight of his team mates and the sprinkling of England fans in the stadium.
The visitors were clearly not content with a draw and continued to press for the winning goal, first Hatswell went close with a header and then on 82 minutes Harrad had a great chance to win the game. Put through by Chalmers he raced clear of the home defence, drew the keeper but his shot clipped the outside of the post. In between these two efforts, Grenada’s Rennie clipped the top of bar and Bishop hit the side netting after a great run from the half-way line.
A highly competitive game played in a good spirit by two skilful and talented teams eventually ended all square and Fairclough admitted that he was impressed by the energy levels and commitment of his players.
“I was staggered by the way the players coped with the conditions,” he said.
“They actually finished the stronger of the two teams which was testament to their fitness levels and commitment to playing for their country.
“It is probably the most competitive game that the side has played since I took over as manager and I was very proud at the final whistle although a little disappointed by the result.
“We dominated over 90 minutes, hit the woodwork five or six times and played the better football.”
His opposite number Norris Wilson was also impressed by the standard of play show by the England side.
“They played some great stuff which belied the ‘C’ tag to the team name,” he said.
“I was impressed, they were certainly a much higher standard team than we had envisaged.”
England: Scott Tynan (Northwich Victoria) John Brayford (Burton Albion), Michael Morrison, Wayne Hatswell (both Cambridge United), Kevin Nicholson (Torquay United), Andy Burgess (Rushden & Diamonds), Daniel Gleeson (Cambridge United) (Russell Penn (Kidderminster Harriers), 67), Lewis Chalmers (Aldershot Town), Martyn Woolford (York City) (Shaun Harrad (Burton Albion), 67), Steve Morison (Stevenage Borough) (John Shaw (Halifax Town), 82), Mitchell Cole (Stevenage Borough)

They Strike on that one too !!!!

Pics will come later when I get home....
-
D juzzy say we support all SW dat is y we were in d stadium
-
They Strike on that one too !!!!
-
D Strike bus since d GC last yr
-
Even though England have announced a weakened team against TNT, I still expect them to defeat TNT by 3 clear goals.....they should have beaten the USA more comfortably than the 2-0 score indicate.
Hey Fellaz..Good Prediction huh
-
That is pure stupidness. You protesting and wearing black, after you done buy ticket and money going into TTFF and Jack Warner pocket? :rotfl: I will understand if you wear black and protest in front of the stadium instead
You apparently don't know the difference between a show of solidarity and a boycott/protest.
-
Now that Dwight Yorke done get his 20 minutes against England......hardly got a touch......., Might there be a chance he will be ducking out of the less prestigious clash against Jamaica ??? ??? ???

Seon Power is a very good player. Kern Cupid too.
Dem jes raw. Fortunately fuh dem, dey not going to be going up against de calibre of opposition dat dey were exposed to yesterday any time soon.
They will do well against the likes of Bermuda et al which will give them confidence ahead of the battles with the powers in CONCACAF.
As much as we getting kicks off Seon Powers I have to agree with Palos. Powers have a real good workrate and athletic ability. All he need is more experience against the likes of Gerrard and Dafoe to learn the deficiencies in his game. In fact he would undoubtedly the right wing back had he been not injured. Look for Powers to be T&T stawart player in that position during the qualifiers once he fit. Once he learn to make an accurate pass he in like Flynn ;D

Spideybuff doh worry we on the same page antipation is a reflection of your speed of thought or as we say thinking two and three plays ahead. So I was referring to their speed of thought when i talked about their defensive and offensive anticipation
-
One thing i forgot to ask for the forumites who were there in the stadium from early.
Given that it was a centennial celebration.
Was there any presentation to past players, coaches and administrators throughout the history of the TTFF in trinidad? Any recognition of the 1973 squad, 1989 squad and 2006 teams?
Any plaque share, any speech pass?
let me know thanks..

at the end of the game both teams were presented with a centennial medal or something...presentation barely took 15-20 mins...

Hmm...I guess this is why I am an armchair critic and not a coach.
I think Hyland had a horrible game and probably lost whatever contract offers he could have had. I have to watch the game on tv now because in the stadium it looked like he did not make ONE pass to a player in white all game.
Yes he may have hustled and been involved in the game but (to me) he gave the ball away EVERY SINGLE TIME he had it.
I ain't get to see the game, but even on English message boards, they talking bout how good Hyland (and Whitley) play.
Who say club trials fuh we skipper and Hyland. Whitley have some age,but clubs will still sign him to a 2 or 3 years. Good luck guys, watch de ride from here on now. HIGHLY BLESSED.
-
Omar I know dey say d only stupid? is d 1 not ask but is d JWFF u dealin wit. If dey did get a lil medal dat mean dey would a have 2 get ticket does less profit for TTT
-
This team need Cornell Glen (speed and willingness to take on defenders), Julius James (the most promising defender we have) Chris Birchall (the only man who willing to do the dirty work in the midfield, and occasionally slam a bullet from midfield), and give Sancho a call. It is time to leave Yorke Lawrence, and Latapy and move on. By 2010, they go be senior citizens. The coach is fine, unless he play stubborn and refuse to make changes.
We will be fine. The young ones will learn from their mistakes. Watch how we go mash up the Reggae Boys on Saturday!
I blame the coaching staff for allowing the players to be so respectful of the English. If they wouldn't tackle, haul them off!!

Edwards & Whitely were the 2 best guys on the field for us on the day. Hyland & Lawrence (except for losing the plot for one brief moment late in the second half)...honorable mention. Stern also put in a half- decent shift.

d tees were excellent quality...fit nice

Omar I agree, I like the man, he have the makings of a great player. All I saying is England was not at full speed.
This is a great reason why we need birchall and whitley along with Hyland in the middle. Having two players to back him up with tackles allowing him to play more freely.
He deserve his pick when looking at the other selection, no doubt.

if stern ever gunna step up into prem kinda material he hadda learn to work harder, either that or spin and buss the net every time he managed to trap and control the ball... cuz his work rate is pitiful...
and this commin from ah big fan of his, i mean, his goals are superb when he's playin against less, mediocre, and even decent opponents... but when the big league players come... he seems content tuh let the game go on around him...
whitely hadda be the only player that played with serious intent and confident, edwards aswell... but both of them lacked that finally drive, tuh take ah shot while in space, i find like the wernt sure of their mission.
when balls were crossed no one could meet it with ah header... hyland was impressive interms of skill and composure... but none of them really made a big impact.
sigh... hopefully we can start building against jamaica and bermuda.

Anyone worried about facing Bermuda?
I just asking eh cause I know we beat up El Salvador or San Salvador, some type ah door, shock the people up the island and then had a great outting to the Over lords.
So with this prestigious record in mind, anyone worried about facing Bermuda?
T&T 3 - Bermuda 0

I see Jack make a point of stating that the public wore white:
“They (the fans) wore white and they bonded with the team and were very vocal.....”
Also read he got a generous round of applause on the day. What yuh go do??

I eh think nobody afraid but as you post that score there it make me realise : wha's the most we ever score under Pacho? Two, right? And is not like if in them games we real throw away plenty either.
Creativity is still a big problem when we have the ball...not enough chances being created for Stern to throw away.
I wonder if Scotty will get a call -up before that game seeing as there is no real need to risk Kenwyne
-
Elan nobody getting carried away by Hyland..all some man in here saying is his selection in the team was justified based on his performance (did I mention anthything bout a bleddy spanner or did I mention "his performance!!")..Now we see why Maturana is impressed with the 18 year old..He played better than most of de fellas who rep the warriors in de game...so all that writting yuh did still cant erase that de man deserve to be on the team...and all de complaining allyuh fellas was doing about his selection was unjust..
NOBODY ever once remotely suggested that Hyland didn't deserve to be on the team because of his capacity. People attacked Maturanton's rationale that certain players were being left out/included because of their (non) performance with their clubs. Scotty's exclusion and Hyland's inclusion both seem to fly in the face of that. If Hyland ripping up, good for him and even better for us, but the fact of the matter is he was as much or even more unattatched than plenty men that we KNOW have potential, including birchall, sancho, avery etc.
If what men are saying about Hyland is true, and i notice that men have conflicting opinions on his performance, then is now we need someone like a birchall to complement whitley in d mid and let hyland do the yorke type distribution to the wingers running riot on the flanks...
-
WELL WELL!!...All de people in here who was mad over Hyland selection not saying sh*t bout that issue anymore..Now is evident why Maturana has him the squad..For a player of his age that does not have much international experience he was impressive...Lawrence was not impressive same for Ince...Makes me wonder if Sancho, Jack, Gay and all of de older fellas allyuh crying bout,were to come back how would they perform with this team!!
Good point.
Yorke and Latas retire.
Birchall , the jury still out on his season.
Avery , where is he ?
Cyd breaking his ankle in India.
Sancho , maybe hard done by
Dog doh need this , should try to make as much money as he can with Raith.
Shaka retire.
Cornell Glen like he disappear.
Jack suffer this season.
Theobald was used as a man marker by Beenie, not in Maturana's plans.
Avery playing same level as Telesford and Patterson, and just make a USL team of the week.
Birchall had a half season, but if he was good enough for the SPL during that half a season, he have to be good enough for Bermuda et al.
Cornell Glenn scoring goals. He just playing for a shite PFL squad. I admit though that he probably still not back to his old level.
I never did see why Beenie persist with Bleeder, but he young and he have enough experience. Maturana should at least keep him in the mix for the weaker opposition. Is not like he have to go Hungary to find him anymore - he right they with Cali.
Dog, Jack and Cyd are all recuperating from injury/surgery and will both have to find a club and playing time this summer if they are to be part of the early campaign as will Sancho.

By JACK BELL
New York Times
In the often politicized world of soccer, England’s recent four-day visit to Trinidad and Tobago to celebrate that country’s soccer centenary was, well, political.
Jack Warner, a special adviser to Trinidad’s soccer federation, is also the top official in the regional governing body, Concacaf, and a member of FIFA’s powerful executive committee. He was clearly being wooed by English officials, who are seeking support for their bid to host the 2018 World Cup. Warner would be expected to support regional bids from the United States and Mexico, but he told The Daily Telegraph of London that “America will not win” on the first ballot, which would make his vote available on subsequent ballots.
But beyond the festivities in Port of Spain, where England won Sunday, 3-0, Trinidad’s federation and Warner have been involved in a dispute with 16 players from the 2006 World Cup team over how to divide the tournament booty. Last week, an arbitrator in London ruled that the players were entitled to half of the federation’s profit, which is estimated to be $28 million. A hearing later this month will decide who receives what.
“Not a single member of the team was even offered a ticket to the game,” Shaka Hislop said of the match with England in a telephone interview from Dallas. He was the goalkeeper on the World Cup team and is currently a soccer analyst for ESPN. Only one of the players involved in the dispute, Dwight Yorke, attended the centenary celebration.
“Everyone can see it was simply a way for England to get on the good side of one of FIFA’s most powerful men,” Hislop said.
After the arbitrator’s ruling, Hislop said, the players feel “some relief and a lot of justification” in their feud with the federation in Trinidad. “We entered into an agreement, one that Mr. Warner offered us, for 50 percent of the profits,” he said. “This is our trade, this is how we earn our living. It took a special group of players to take it to the courtroom.”

3-0 for england. watched teh game. The English looked to be uncomfortable playing in the tropical conditions. I think they were more thinking of hitting the beach than extending themselves agaianst T&T. They made 7 chnages in teh secnd half.
Would love to have them in the Office. I am sure we would have been able to give them a better game.
-
the ONLY decent players i saw on Sunday besides most of england "b" side
carlos, whittley, yorke, the rest need to work on their first touch, looked like a bunch of rapist out there, england knew that and closed us too quick,
and you could clearly see the difference between them moving the ball around and us playing like everybody is ah midfield genius holding the ball too long and CONSTANTLY ball watching
lost of work to do especially if Canada giving Brazil horrors and Mexico and usa in we group so plus all them small islands feel they have ah chance too and lets nto forget them central American teams who never say die

ratings
there was no A for attack and definitely no G for goal
E for effort but only with a D for defense
this team needs a C for coach
sorry all you guys that are rating this one good and that one with promise. I am tired of promises. I just wish the coach would encourage the players to take shots at the net.
they looked to me like all of them (yes, including the great stern) were afraid of the net.
and by the way- what kind of set plays were those? again- not designed to score.

Questions over Soca Warriors
By ZAID MOHAMMED Sports Editor Tuesday, June 3 2008
Newsday
THE PERFORMANCE of the Trinidad and Tobago football team against England in the much touted Centennial Match on Sunday presented more questions than answers.
Coming just two weeks before the opening match of the CONCACAF qualifiers for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, the performance of the Soca Warriors did not give any reason to hold out much hope.
Understandably the Soca Warriors were playing one of the top teams in the world who despite being not up to full strength strolled to a comfortable 3-0 victory. But the approximately 25,000 fans who packed the Hasely Crawford Stadium at Mucurapo were left unimpressed with the make-up of the team and the tactics of coach Francisco Maturana.
England led for the 58th time by David Beckham, got the opening goal in the 11th minute from Gareth Barry and two more on each side of the half from Jermain Defoe to end their 2008 regular season on a winning note. But it was not the goals as much as the way the English ran rough-shod over the Trinidad and Tobago team that was the source of much concern. The home team never threatened except from the sheer play-making abilities of Carlos Edwards, who last season helped his club Sunderland get into the English Premiership.
Edwards sadly lacked any support in the midfield and fans were left wondering where was England-born Chris Birchall who played a crucial role in his team’s qualification for their first World Cup Finals in Germany two years ago. Birchall was present in Trinidad over the weekend but for reasons only known to the football administrators he was not included not only for the Centennial Match but for Saturday’s warm-up against Jamaica on Saturday and the Bermuda World Cup qualifier on June 15.
The former Port Vale midfielder was among several players who took the Football Federation to court for World Cup bonus money, a matter which was ruled in their favour by the Court of Arbitration in London, England.
This led to speculation that there was a “blacklist” in existence after several other top players involved in the court action were unexplainably omitted from the national team.
Another of those players, Jason Scotland who plays for Swansea City in the second tier of English Football was a notable omission against England on Sunday .
His future too on the national team and the important role he can play in the forward line have been clouded in uncertainty despite being top scorer for his club which earned him “Player of the Year” honours in Wales.
Not only has the Birchall and Scotland omissions to be addressed seriously and in quick time but also other issues surrounding players who have shown the credentials to assume a place in the campaign for South Africa 2010 and others who clearly lack the qualities to go forward. One player, Kern Cupid has been selected on the 18-man squad and actually played against England on Sunday but has not been included in the starting XI for W Connection, his local club team in the TT Pro League. Darryl Roberts, who played last season for Dutch First Division side Rotterdam and did not particularly distinguish himself is currently without a professional contract
-
good article

good article
I beg to differ. No offense to Mr. Mohammed, but tt sounds like someone ask a high school or first year university to write a essay on "The selection controversy in the Trinidad and Tobago football team"
Everything sounds slightly artificial, as if the person ent follow the events in question but read about them several years after piecing together newspaper and internet reports.
It talks about Birchall omission as if the author just wake up from a coma and realise Birchall not on the team. The talk about Roberts completely ignores that we are smack in the off season and a number of other inconsistencies/omissions that you can't really let slide...
The only real piece of useful info in there was the fact that Cupid benching for Connection.
However it says that Birchall not included for the other matches either, so does that signify that only men in the 23 training squad will be eligible for the Bermuda match?
-
allyuh doesn't realized that the team is at rebuilding mode. i wish i saw de game on the internet. we de soca warriors should have subscribtion
-
Roberts didn't distinguish himself for Sparta? I thought he was the second top scorer with 7 goals (the joint top scorers had 8 ). Ah guess Kenwyne didn't distinguish himself either.
-
THe team is re-building. Let the youths learn from now. Trinidad was the oldest team in the WC. Are we suppose to wait till, those guys reach 39, then to suddenly replace them? Who are u going to replace them with? Let these young guys play these types of matches NOW and learn. How else they going learn? Imagine guys like Jermey Short, Brent Rahim, David Austin, Cecil Hinds, etc, etc......had the chance to play against, Ian Wright, Paul Ince, Paul Gascoigne,, etc, etc, back in the early 90's, where these guys could have learn and elevated their gaime, instead of wasting their talents in the NCAA College Nonsense......imagine the progress that we could have made?
To be honest, these young T&T footballers are talented. But there and no way better talented these crop of guys I mentioned earlier. I am glad that Hyland and company are getting the chance to play at this level, rather than waste away in the USA College nonsense, league, which they can EASILY waste away. If these guys continue on this track, they will sign contracts in Europe.
Let them take de licks now. Even if Trinidad does not qualify for 2010, these guys are still young, and if they continue and learn from now, there is 2014 and 2018 to look fwd too, which by then thery would be VERY seasoned and EXPERIENCED players...........
Yes, we can't discard ALL the experienced WC guys from 2006, but at the same time, Rebuilding has to be done. It happens in ALL sports. Look at the NBA. U have to rebuild...........
Chris Birchall, Jason Scotland and Colin Samuel should all be the squad in my opinion, but the coach makes the final selection. It eh matter who in or who out, not everyone go be pleased............

de man say roberts eh distinguish heself against england...
what dry so?
Yuh thought processes? :) ah js on kicks eh
and midnight, i is ah dunce eh..why yuh find de man article so puerile?
Yuh should axe T&T public why dem eh support de blacklisted players and further axe dem why dem clap Jack so hard.

Dat eh wha he saying at all. He talking about all de men who make de team with questionable credentials and "who clearly lack the qualities to go forward". First he bring up Cupid and say he cyah even start for W Connection. Den he bring up Roberts, talkin bout he eh distinguish himself wit Sparta. He was done talking bout England long time.

Puerile ent de real word. Just not really spot on. Like a movie scenario with holes in the plot or a concert with off key singing. I glad somebody other than Lasana writing something other than just a "T&T loses to England article, , but you could almost see the duct tape sticking out from the edges as you reading. Anyway, I suppose I shouldn't criticise when men trying they best...
As for the T&T public, I not asking them nothing cos i done know the answers.

Don't worry Ann men will get sign in the Prem and come back as super heroes in the next few years. So hold tight for a little, yuh don't want the players to force ripe do you!?

Nah Nah I going with Cupid over Seon Power any day.

with on ething on yuh mind "do yuh job and support the rest of the men on d pitch"
Yuh have to bear in mind, we have men who don't know the game.
Only Ince, Lawrence, Whitley (to some extent), Edwards, John & Jones really KNOW the game (I eh countin Yorke).
By "knowing the game", I talkin bout positional play, off the ball running, moving into space, playing without the ball etc.
When you have 75% of yuh backline DOH KNOW DE GAME....wha yuh expeck? De backline fuh example have to learn how to operate as a unit. When to step up, how to keep yuh shape, who coverin fuh who etc.
It go take time to understand yuh role, and to LEARN dese tings. Tings dat frankly yuh supposed to at least have a basic understanding of by de time yuh graduate to de senior national team.
Whitley know a lil bit because of his WC qualifying and WC experiences. But we doh teach dem ting in football. Men want to play WITH the ball but doh have much of a clue how to play when de opposition have de ball.
Is why Keon Daniel out of position so often, why we defence was constantly under pressha, why Cupid had such a terrible game.
If yuh remember well.....Cupid's performance in dis game was almost a carbon copy of Cyd Gray's performance against Costa Rica in a WC qualifyin match in Costa Rica back in 2000 ah tink it was. It was his debut. Poor fella get LIX dat game and why? Because de Keon Daniel of dat game, Angus Eve never once track back to help him out. Medford and dem had a ball runnin rings rong poor Cyd.
Cyd Gray end up bein arguably we best player in Germany. Why? He LEARN to play de position and dat aligned with his natural qualities such as speed, recovery and tackling all combine to make him a relative success in de position. Most imporatantly, he had man like Birchall and Yorke who was coverin ground and workin WITH him so dat he was hardly ever isolated. DAT is team work and fuh a man who know so much football, I really cyah understand why Alvin does hate on Birchie so much.
Cupid could have had it much worse. He was lucky it was a fete match but he have de raw tools, jes like Cyd to succeed. Whether he have de mentality, discipline and focus to follow through like Cyd remains to be seen. Same goes fuh all dem youths.

Ann excelent post especially when we woman are bein encourage 2 go on a netball site

Dey eh deserve no ticket dey go up against d man who gave more 2 football than football gave 2 him. D arbitrator say what we have been sayin except frico and youth baller d man is a Krook he rob d SW.
-
Where d hell he was all d time. When u rebuildin u does have have some foundation 2 build on d period rite after d WC was d time 2 merge dold wit d new it nevahappen all yuh have an A Level student in d side leave out a man who just get he c promoted and tell me we rebuildin.
Jamal Gay not Scotland betta come of d bench because he was originally in d squad dat mean he is a betta player.
We luv 2 discard in TNT we me 2 phone wukin good but we want d latest phone u 4get d good service d me 2 was given u. Nobody say carry Dog 2 d WC but y was he not dey 2 help Noreiga out. Yes Noreiga d man who Youth Baller and Frico boi leff 2 hang out 2 dry in d USA.
Where Noreiga 2day?

What rock did Zaid crawl out of to write dat article?
That article is shit.
Where was he when we played all those friendlies? What were his comments? He just expected us to play against a top quality team just so?
The fact that he only singled out Edwards (probably the only player he can recognise) as having a good game and ignored the contributions of Whitley, Hyland and even Stern shows that he aint really know what he talking about.
He speaks about Birchall as if he would have made us a greater attacking threat from midfield. He waste down Roberts talking about how he aint distinguish himself in Holland without knowing anything about the player and how he has been playing for both club and country in recent times.
His comments on Cupid were spot on, but even my little non football loving sister thinks that Cupid should not have played.
Yuh cant please Trinis.
Wim aint want to work with de locals........we vex
Maturana working with the locals........we still vex
steups, ah going and look for de newsday with dat article and bun it!!

Jokey ting !!!!!!!! T&T ppl is real nonchalant uncommitted folks. how did i know this would've been the case. stuepss
it was stated early on this is our own thing
i will handle the process but is midknight slogan...i not gonna rain on he parade
Still doing the reading up. It look like i will have to designate a agent since i all the way over here, but I have a doubt. Assuming that Soca Warriors already registered as a trade mark, can we register a slogan with the term Soca Warriors in it? We may have to keep it to simply "warriors" to be able to get it done. Someone would have to go through the trade mark register and check that for me.

You would want to register the "We support all Soca Warriors..." thing.
Don't believe you need an agent...but you need provide an address where they can send you some letter or the other. Not sure if the address needs to be local, but didn't seem to be from how I read it.
-
Ummm...yeah...I was there...laterz.
-
to me we played more attacking football than in nuremberg , and we knocked the ball better and held possesion much longer.
Take off your red tinted spectacles.
England went two nil up within the first 15 minutes without breaking sweat. Playing a more open game was part of T&Ts problem. In 2006 they were compact and didn't give too much away until the very end. On Sunday they woefully open and as a result, England waltzed through without doing much during the first hafl. End result? 2-0 down at half time.
I take it you were not at the game because it was just wayward pass after wayward pass from midfield whilst England sat back and collected whatever scraps were left. When Defoe made it 3-0 it was game over and England just sat back and played for time. By holding possession I suppose you mean the defence passing to midfield and then midfield knocking it back to the defence? What game were you watching?
Trinidad had one shot on target.

Anybody know if it on Youtube or any other video site?

The England game was a good yardstick as to where we are. Two years ago exactly, we were competing against the best England had to offer and matching them step for step.It took a "foul goal" from Crouch in the 82nd minute of the game to break the deadlock.....indeed we could have been 1 - 0 at half time if was'nt for the heroics of John Terry.
The British commentators did'nt sound so cocky then as they did a few Sundays ago as their team missing several key players stroll to a comfortable 3 -0 win.
This has led me to reflect and ask a few questions ?
1. Do we have to go backwards before we can move forward ? Must be a third world thing or better yet a trini ting.
2. Do we have to do things in approx 16 yr periods ? 73,89,05
3. Must there be bacchanal in every area and aspect of our football ?
4. Must we self disrupt for one man to prove his point ?
5. Can football be run as a collective association and not a one man show ? Dom Basil, Eric James, Jack Warner
6. Why can't people at the top think country before self?
It is very disheartening as a trini to see us shooting ourselves in the foot just before our first World Cup qualifiers.If we don't take stock like everything else it would come back to haunt us.
As I said on the old board, I don't blame Jack Warner or his cronies totally for the state of dispair our football is in.
There is a constitution and if the football fraternity will allow a few people to railroad the constitution and get away with it ,they are the ones to be held more accountable for where we are today.
Probable they don't know the power they have ?

FROM: Skysports.
Full-time Final whistle goes here and England seal comfortable win. Thanks for joining me tonight and stay tuned for all the reaction.
90 mins - Added time Three minutes added on here.
90 mins - Better from Young Nice try from the Villa man as he fires in a shot from the edge of the box but Ince is across well to make the save. Late corner for England, Bentley takes by Crouch heads over.
90 mins - Late chance Another nice cross from Bentley finds Crouch in the box but his header loops safely to Ince.
88 mins - Close for T & T Best chance of the match falls for Whitley as Edwards finds him in the box - but he sides foots the ball over the top. Could have been the goal the home fans are craving.
87 mins - Missed chance Walcott breaks clear as Lawrence misses the ball but he fires poorly at Ince, who cannot take it cleanly as Crouch comes in but he just manages to get a touch on the ball. Walcott should have scored.
84 mins - Change Another debutant with Stephen Warnock replacing Bridge.
83 mins - Walcott close A long ball over the top almost see Walcott in the clear but Ince is off his line very quickly to head the ball clear.
79 mins - Little impact Ashley Young gets his first chance to attack and he is one on one with Smith on the edge of the box but the full-back gets the tackle in - poor from the Aston Villa man. Saying that not many of the subs have shone so far.
76 mins - Change T & T legend Dwight Yorke comes on for a farewell appearance.
74 mins - Change John is off for T & T and Jerrol Forbes comes on.
72 mins - Sloppy England are not playing great at the moment with slack passing all over the field and Fabio Capello doesnt look too amused.
70 mins - Change Walcott finally gets his second cap as he replaces Defoe - who should have had his hat-trick tonight.
69 mins - Over and out John works the ball to Daniel on the edge of the box but it is a poor effort and sails wide.
68 mins - Hart concern Hart this time comes to punch but he again misses it and he will be very relieved to see his team-mates scramble it clear.
67 mins - Hart scare Hart comes for a cross but misses and T & T look for goal but this time Jagielka clears behind for another corner.
67 mins - Home pressure The second half has seen T & T do much better and Jagielka heads behind for a corner but it is poor and England clear.
63 mins - Solid Good defensive work from Crouch as he heads away a T & T corner. Game has slowed down a lot here, all the changes seem to have changed the pace of the game.
62 mins - Crouch debate Well Crouch's introduction is not very popular in Port of Spain or on the feedbacks. Jeff Patrick wants to see Walcott and not Crouch.
60 mins - Almost Crouch sprays the ball across field for Bentley whose cross come shot from outside the box almost beats Ince but it flys just wide.
58 mins - Great stop Lovely move by England with Gerrard and Crouch combining, Deofe plays it in for his strike-partner whose shot is well parried by Ince. Corner for England which Bentley takes but the home side clear.
57 mins - Change Another sub for England this time with Downing making way for Ashley Young.
54 mins - Hat-trick chance Real opportunity for Defoe as Crouch plays the ball into Gerrard - he dummies it for Defoe but he toe-pokes it wide. He should have done better.
53 mins - Hart in the mouth Joe Hart scrambles across his goal as Hyland unleashes a shot but the Man City star sees it wide.
51 mins - Bentley into gear More good work from Bentley as he looks to feed Gerrard in the box but his shot is well wide.
50 mins - Close It could have been more as Defoe fires wide from the edge of the area - half a chance for his hat-trick.
49 mins - GOAL Number two for Defoe. Great ball from Bentley down the right, he crosses into box and Smith's header can only find Defoe - who side foots home with ease.
48 mins - Boos ring out Crouch is being booed by the home fans whenever he touches the ball - they remember is World Cup goal which came courtesy of a little tug of the hair on Brent Sancho!
47 mins - Home possession For the first time in the game we see some sustained T & T pressure although it does not come to much with Jagielka getting his first touches at the back.
46 mins - Bad news Early news suggests knee ligament damage for Sunderland's Kenwyne Jones - could be really bad news for the striker and his manager Roy Keane.
Kick-off T & T get us underway.
Debuts Well we have a host of changes coming up for England. Crouch and Bentley come on, whilst Joe Hart and Phil Jagielka are going to make their debuts. Ferdinand, James, Beckham and Ashton make way. Kareem Smith and Osei Telesford come on for T & T, Cupid and Roberts are off.
Confidence Well we are getting a few feed backs from some natives in T & T - Gerard Krogh in Trinidad is hopeful it can be turned around.
Half-time The whistle has gone here and it is 2-0 to England. Please dont forget to keep sending your feedbacks. Graeme Bailey - graemebailey@hotmail.com
45 mins - Added time One minute has been added on here as both sides look ready for the break.
43 mins - Too good Long ball releases Defoe down the left and he takes the ball in and Lawrence can only take his legs away - too easy for the Pompey man. Beckham steps up to curl it in but Ince takes it with ease.
42 mins - Good move Downing comes inside and is fed by Ashton, and he fires a shot with his right-foot which Ince takes at the second-attempt.
41 mins - Flash from home side Bridge gives the ball away cheaply to Edwards, he plays in Roberts who crosses into six-yard box and Ferdinand has to head clear - better from the home side.
39 mins - Home noise Crowd are on their feet as John looked to have got in behind the English defence before firing at goal - but the linesman has his flag up.
37 mins - Ashton chance Keep ball stuff from England and the ball comes for Beckham, he crosses into box for Ashton - who is free about eight yards out but he volleys over the bar when he really should have tested Ince.
35 mins - More pressure England win corner again on the left. Beckham is there to take but Hyland clears with his head.
34 mins - Awful effort Defoe brings the ball down in box, lobs it over Cupid and then fires over by about 20ft whne just on the edge of the six-yard box.
33 mins - Nice move Best chance for the home side as Daniel skips past Glen Johnson and crosses, John dummies it for Edwards who tees up Roberts to shoot at goal but James take it - nice move.
32 mins - England break Barry wins the ball in midfield and is almost clear but he is halted by a great tackle from Hislop who surely denies a likely goal for England who had numbers streaming forward.
30 mins - Booked Gerrard is booked for foul on Hyland who produced some great skill to go by him. Free-kick on the edge of taken by Edwards but it comes to nothing.
29 mins - Rio okay Ferdinand is back on after some treatment and seems okay. Play continues with T & T spending a decent amount of time in the England half.
27 mins - Home hope Daniel swings in the corner and it almost drops for Roberts in six-yard box but England manage to scramble it clear. Ferdinand is down after being caught in melee.
26 mins - T & T chance Free-kick given against Steven Gerrard for foul on Hyland - but very harsh on Liverpool skipper. Edwards and Daniel are over it, the Sunderland man takes and it is deflected behind for a corner.
24 mins - Safe hands Bridge beats Edwards too the ball and plays in Defoe, Makan Hislop backs off which allows the Pompey ace to fire at goal but Ince does well to take it - but he is not happy with Hislop and lets him know about it.
22 mins - T & T hope Well not much on the pitch, but Adanma Raymond on line in Trinidad has not given up hope and still thinks the SocaWarriors can get something from this!
21 mins - Rare attack T & T push forward and Keon Daniel crosses into the box for Stern John but Jonathan Woodgate heads away with ease.
19 mins - Corner First corner is won by Downing off Cupid. Beckham takes but Aurtis Whitley clears at the near post.
17 mins - Poor stuff The home side really are being pulled all over - Carlos Edwards made one attempt to break forward, but Ferdinand snubbed out the attack and England are back on the break as Downing looks for Ashton but a late tackle from Denis Lawrence denies him.
15 mins - GOAL Well this is very easy for England now. Down the left again as Downing threads through Defoe who takes the ball on before toe-poking it home.
15 mins - No love for Cupid T & Ts right back Cuipd is having a really tough time against Bridge and Downing who are beating him at will.
Reaction Well little shock that you all think England are going to win now. Couple of mentions, one to Kevin Lloyd from Walsall who is wishing Clayton Ince all the best in goal for T & T - while Conor Murphy is following us one line whilst in the Turks and Caicos Islands.
12 mins - GOAL No real shock as England take the lead through Gareth Barry. Nice move down the left saw Bridge released nto the box from a Downing pass, and he hooked it back for Barry to power the ball home.
11 mins - Change Jones cannot shake off his knee injury so Darryl Roberts of Sparta Rotterdam comes on.
10 mins - T & T hope Some nice play from the home side with Khaleem Hyland doing well in central midfield.
9 mins - Jones off Jones is stretched off and it looks doubtful that he will come back on.
7 mins - Calamity James Rio Ferdinand lets a long ball drop - but James comes racing off his line and he only manages to catch Kenwyne Jones - who is down hurt after a tough looking challenge and he looks as if he could come off. Very lucky for the England number one that he did not concede and that a foul was not given.
6 mins - So close Jermain Defoe is so close to giving England the lead. Beckham swung a trademark cross into the six-yard box but the Portsmouth striker just cannot get enough on it and it goes wide.
5 mins - Ashton confidence The West Ham striker tries his luck from 25-yards but it is well over - but positive from the debutant.
4 mins - Beckham chance England free-kick on the edge of the box and it looks like perfect range for Beckham but he cannot beat the wall.
3 mins - First Shot Our first attempt comes from the home side as Carlos Edwards tries his luck from the edge of the box but Gareth Barry blocks and David James claims it.
2 mins - Clearance Kern Cupid is forced to clear early on as David Beckham looks for Dean Ashton in the box.
1 min - Early possession England have all the early touches with nice moves from Stewart Downing and Wayne Bridge. England looking to pass the ball around here.
Kick-off England get us underway here as Dean Ashton gets his first touch of the ball as an international player.
Anthems Both sides are out and shaking hands with the local dignitaries - we are just minutes away from kick-off now.
First feedbacks Well your comments have been flooding in and most of you want the youngsters bringing in.
Roy in Florida wants David Bentley to see some action, Steve Baines from Milton Keynes thinks Theo Walcott, Joe Hart, Dean Ashton and David Wheater should all be playing. Cameron Reid also wants to see Walcott.
And Natalie Calladine is very much on her own as she thinks the old guard like David James should be playing.
On the prediction front, JJ Flynn from Portsmouth is going for 3-1 England, Daniel Kiddle of Maidenhead says 4-1, Jermaine Parchment from Jamaica feels it will be 2-1 to the visitors and Scott Thompson in Canada thinks 2-0 England.

Last night I played in a WC qualifier for TT vs. England. I played right back and we drew 1-1 at the HCS.
Of course it was a dream. However, what shocked me was how real it felt. The tension, the joy and pride of representing your country. We went up 1-0 via a header to the far right post.
A minute later Eng. drew a soft shot at the top of the box, low just inside the left post.
I was closest to it :-(
We celebrated like mad men when we scored and I think just got nervous with the lead.
Pong dem hard in the last two minutes but it was 1-1.
felt a little sad about it the next day becz the return in Eng. would be tough but was still proud to have repped TT ;-)
Yes, I know TT and Eng. not in the same zone but it was a dream ;-))
All yuh ever had a dream like that.
My ex Dunross and Fatima classmate, Colin Browne, played defense with me.
