Title: How come nobody does want we for warm up games
Post by: KND2 on August 19, 2009, 06:45:05 AM
Men always complaining about how we aint have no games.

Most of the time we have to play money for a next team to play with us.

How come teams dont offer us money to come and play versus them.

We is a Big world cup team with big name players, Why is their no demand to play a practice game versus TnT.

Is high time we stop paying for practice game and start getting paid for practice games what is preventing this from happening?

If I was a coach, the only time I would send my players to play Trinidad is if I wanted to get my team's confidence up by beating a weaker side.

Leh we be realistic, as much as we believe in we side in the eyes of the world, we are mediocre at best.

unpublished reports from within the main office at WHO claims that footballers who visit TnT leave themselves open to the dreaded manicou flu. Similar to the swine flu that had people rethinking their visit to Mexico.

Nobody will want us until we start beating good teams.
When is the last time we beat a decent team at full-strength ?

Probably Mexico in 2000.

P.S.
Right now our stock is very low.
We did not qualify for the Gold Cup, and we last in the Hex.
Who would want to play us?
WE would not want to play us.

Doh argue dat fella.  Jamica is always in sports headlines and even if Trinis in the same headlines, Jamaica does be ahead.  As far as the football goes Jamaica is indeed more respected (even though we have more polished players than they do) than us because as you mentioned they market themselves better than us.  It doesn't hurt that their main cultural export is recognized globally.  In few word they have brand recognition on a far greater level than us.

Simple,teams just scared to play we.On a more serious note,i think is two things a country looks forward to if they have to benefit from a friendly,one is measure/test the competitive level of your team/players,the other it have be financially beneficial to the host country,the second part i think is where countries have problems,they will invite countries that going to attract crowds,we criticize our Football so much could you imagine what other countries saying.

Yuh never lie fardder! if after the WC jack warner did do the decent thing and bring in ah reputable coach after beenhakker instead of going with rijsbergen, come to some financial agrement with the players and continued along the line of progress staying out of the coaches way and letting things flow, then we would've been respected, and i'm pretty sure we would @ least have ah better fifa rating and probably we woulda won the degicel back tuh back and finish somewhere in the semifinals of the two goal cups.

but papa jack had other ideas! yuh know it never fails, these sell out old bastards in the 3rd world doh have no shame, and 0 level of committment to excellence!

it's the age old doh tell meh shyte complex, where ppl must be seen and not heard, and i run the whole show, no managers, no board of directors, no advisors, no compramise for the good of the masses, in other words the ultimate dictators!  that's T&T in ah nutshell.

That Jamaica team that draw with Ecuador was a young Jamaican team coz none of the British players were involved.I know that we in the Hex and that mek we feel better but ah feel that Jamaica wudda done better than we presently doing.Our players never look committed enough,some ah dem look like they not even sweating.We could learn from Jamaica,a couple friendlies against them would have done us no harm.

Listen we don't need to learn nothing from JA. We just need to get rid of the pest that is eating away at the soul of we football. We are no novice at this game of football. All yuh could talk all you want, Jack decide who and when we play. Beenie man was the exception. Because he would of walk and left Jack holding ......

 If Jack wants play JA next week he could arrange it. If he wants TT to play Switzerland or Nigeria, he could do it.  Look we had a Coluombia coach and we ain't even go Bogota a play a friendly. We could have arrange to play Colombian club teams,  Ven, Ecuador , Peru. Even if these countries used their B team it would have been better to play GT, Greneda, etc (NO DISRESPECT to them). This argument we should learn from JA. What is it is Burrell could tell Jack to do. You think Jack go listen.

not really..it's our team's performances that creates the interest...firstly..we have been abysmal playing teams..
when we qualified for the world ..we go friendly..we LOST all save two..against Peru  and against Iceland..hardly a huge name internationally but our performances thereafter were woeful...with A FULL strength team..

We went to the WC... had a creditable performance and teams wanted to play us...We got invited to play Japan and Austria.. we lost to japan and then sent a decent team to Austria and got pummeled 4-1...the game was over at half time..we lost our buzz..ppl din see as good opposition...

Wim put together a good run with the blacklist team ( which also kill we momentum)..and we start to get a lil vibes lead up to the gold cup..we play arite...buh get knock out...wim get fired...team in limbo

no teams wanna play a team in a fiasco...

then came mats...
mats start  over..we play lowly friendlies then gradually increase the quality of  opposition over time..guadeloupe...guyana...el salvador..jamaica..we got a good string of results...we got invited to a asia challenge tournament and turned it down...

WCQ start..we lose to bermuda at home..then scrape thru away..we eh looking too good buh we still was playing lil games and getting results..we get more friendlies.. el salvador..haiti...we had a decent showing in the semis barring the US in the US fiasco...

then we lost to grenada..crash out the digi..and we start to get blank...
the rest is history...

Quamire,
            If our local were so unfit how come Jabloteh and W connection in Concacaf and no JA team in it. But that is beside the point. I agree our team could be fitter and I think our guys need more weight training. They should be doing most of it on their own. But the TTFF/Pacho/Jack all screwed up in the preparations for the Hex.

I know for a fact that One Jamaican team withdrew from the Champions league this year (PMU). I think the other was edged out by Puerto Rico Islanders.

The problem with T&T football is that there is not much real fan support, hence no real atmosphere at friendly games. When was the last time you saw a 25K crowd for a friendly game in POS? For intance, if Ja were to play T&T tomorrow in the Hasely Crawford stadium, would you even get a 5000 people showing up? Such a game in Jamaica is looking at a minimum 20K crowd, and if propely marketed, with top players involved would definately sell out the national stadium. That could easily pay each team US$100K. When Jamaica played Costa Rica in a friendly game recently on simoes return to coach us, there was 28,000 people in the stadium. Costa Rica would preffer that sort of atmosphere over playing infront of 500 people in Marabella.

Ecuador was actually playing an England B team in disguise...!

That Jamaica team that played Ecuador was made up domestic players, including about 5 players who were either making their international debuts or had less than 3 caps. Sprinkled with about 4 regulars who play either in the MLS or Scandinavia. NONE of the England based guys were called.

I don't think a properly promoted & marketed game against our "pet-hate" team Jamaica will have only 5,000 fans showing up! Where you get that figure from RF?  ??? I know you badly what to play another game against T&T in P-O-S for possible bragging rights but please don't insult our intelligence in order to try to get the game!  ::)

Regards general friendlies in T&T against non-Jamaican teams, lack of fan support has more to do with lack of proper marketing and development which is down to those in charge of running the TTFF.

In short the problem with T&T football getting better fan (and government) support is down to the incompetence of the TTFF and how Jack Warner is allowed to totally control it like his own personal business.

End of story!!

my point exactly quality friendlies will bring a crowd.When we play Panama just before the world cup the stadium was full too cos of the posituve buzz about out newly qualified team.

When Jamaica played Costa Rica in a friendly game recently on simoes return to coach us, there was 28,000 people in the stadium. Costa Rica would preffer that sort of atmosphere over playing infront of 500 people in Marabella.



Yuh well right meh boy! this generation of TNT ppl doh have no love for football @ all! i remember when intercol used tuh pack the stadium wid ppl, but now it look like all the yutes want tuh do is drink rum, run down woman and kill one another.

when i was ah yute, the savannah used to be full year round, now when i visit trinidad, if yuh see 50 ppl in the savannah yuh see plenty.

Lord have mercy .. I sweat around the savannah on a Tuesday and Thursday up till last year , and the savannah was FULL , with plenty small sweat alll over the place.. Dont know where you get your info from , just cool , maybe you went on a friday evening....
If you call that full then so be it, from what i saw it had one and two small sweat going on here and there,and yes i was there quite recent and yes it looked scanty to me , and no it wasn't ah friday, and no it wasn't raining either, it just didn't look full, and campared to how it used to be, it looked tired.

it also looked like there are no leagues in the savannah anymore, just pick up games. i don't know how old you are makie, and i'm certainly not trying to pull rank, but if you're younger than 35, then you certainly has never seen ah packed savannah except during carnival or independence.

Cause we shitty!  ;D :devil:

 :rotfl: :rotfl: true dat
imaging Ecuador choosing jam and they aint have players like we 

Jamaica has a higher reputation in world football than T&T does.




Jamaica have runners not footballers.    :P

And you have neither footballers nor runners. :P Usain Bolt could probably make your football team, he would probably be abl eto score a few golas to lift you off the foot of the Hex.

In fact I think he should play for the RBZ.  ;D


Now you can come bragg about Bolt because you finally realise your football team is worthless ??  ;D

Last 3 games our footballers play in world cup qualifying games they beat Mexico, Honduras, Canada on the trot.
What have your last three world cup qualifiers result look like again? Yes, Ja failed to advance to the Hex, but I know for sure that we are better than at least 2 of the teams that made it.

Bolt is another story all-together.

AJW does want TOO big of a match fee from dem BIG teams when we play them

The problem with T&T football is that there is not much real fan support, hence no real atmosphere at friendly games. When was the last time you saw a 25K crowd for a friendly game in POS? For intance, if Ja were to play T&T tomorrow in the Hasely Crawford stadium, would you even get a 5000 people showing up? Such a game in Jamaica is looking at a minimum 20K crowd, and if propely marketed, with top players involved would definately sell out the national stadium. That could easily pay each team US$100K.

I don't think a properly promoted & marketed game against our "pet-hate" team Jamaica will have only 5,000 fans showing up! Where you get that figure from RF?  ??? I know you badly what to play another game against T&T in P-O-S for possible bragging rights but please don't insult our intelligence in order to try to get the game!  ::)

Regards general friendlies in T&T against non-Jamaican teams, lack of fan support has more to do with lack of proper marketing and development which is down to those in charge of running the TTFF.

In short the problem with T&T football getting better fan (and government) support is down to the incompetence of the TTFF and how Jack Warner is allowed to totally control it like his own personal business.

End of story!!

Ecuador was actually playing an England B team in disguise...!

That Jamaica team that played Ecuador was made up domestic players, including about 5 players who were either making their international debuts or had less than 3 caps. Sprinkled with about 4 regulars who play either in the MLS or Scandinavia. NONE of the England based guys were called.

People have to be real stupid to take a cont like you seriously. All your so-called 'honest critique' is reserved for Trinidad and Tobago, yet you always giving a bly to Jamaica and using every ridiculous excuse in the book for why your shit side is out of the Hex.


Every mens team from T&T has advanced further than Jamaica. Mens U17, Mens U20, both of which spanked Jamaica, and our Senior suqad. I don't really give a shit about who better than who, but fact is fact. And we will probably be beating you for years to come.

How many club teams you have in CCL? Which country is the Caribbean Club Champion from? The most pathetic thing about you and your corbeaux friends on the board is arguing about which two shit underperforming sides is better, T&T or JA. Allyuh is a real waste of break

Our "shit" side is out of the Hex for one simple reason dude: Mexico were marginally better than us. In fact, they edged us out on goal difference after we both ended the group on equal points. Nothing to be ashamed of in that one.
