Title: Mexico Sell Out
Post by: trinibug on October 13, 2005, 07:04:31 PM
This is what these imps on GolTv 45/45 saying now.
First they claim that we eh beat Mexico in 74 years. ( I think Latapy might disagree with that). Then they say that the extra concacaf 1/2 spot is undeserved. - But these TV men either euro-centric or South-American.
Finally they say that Mexico look weak, and the referee had some bad decisiona, including the penalty.

Steups... now they saying Jack Warner can die seeing Trinidad make the world cup. With the wink, Jack have a dream...

Sour Grapes! At least the next one saying is Guatemala Fault, How they could lose a game in 5 minutes they was winning 2-1 in POS

And nobod mention that Costa Rica didn't exactly shine on the field either.

But is conspiracy Thursday. Argentina sell out to Uraguay - look how they was huggin before the game.

It really funny how it would be acceptable for Guatemala to beat Costa Rica but not Trinidad to beat Mexico (not like is the first time we beat them).  I realize though that it didn't matter who our last game was against, they was going to say that the other team sell out against us.  It could have even have been Panama they would have just said that Jack Warner offered Panama something for the game. If it was the USA that we played the last game against then they would have said that since they knocked us out in 89 then they just felt sorry for us and gave us the game.  It really didn't matter but maybe the only way they would have accepted the result of the game is if our last game was against Guatemala.


F*(K THEM ALL

WARRIORS FOREVER!!!!

I getting South African Sat TV here ( Super Sports) and in their world cup wrap up they said that Trinidad has gotten through to the play offs because Mexico played with a second string team and had no real inetrest in the game since they had qualified already (I intend to send them a fitting email.
 However BBC on TV commentator did say this about the Stern second goal, ( Take a look at this folks, what a spectacular goal from Stern John, what a way to win a match, you will hardly see better than that !! )
So there is the pettiness, sour grapes (South Africa hosting the next world cup and have not qualified ) and the objective reports.

But to all the bullshit, cow piss mix with elephant shit reports, I say Deda muteli (Georgian for yuh mudder c..t)

Let all the eliminated watch from the side as we look to destroy Bahrain. F**k Guatemala, S. Africa, and all the failures.

Title: Biased Latin Media
Post by: Jah Gol on October 14, 2005, 06:48:47 PM
On Gol TV's 45/45 when the topic of Guatemala's exit from WCQ they called Our win against Mexico questionable. They said Mexico played lax and Stern's first goal was a clear offside.

They didn't mention that Mexico was totally outplayed in midfield, that T & T created the bulk on the chances or that the T&T defense was oustanding. Their analysis totally ignored the playof  Latapy, Edwards or Withley. They also ignored the fact that Costa Rica rested 8 players and virtually handed the match to Latin neighbours Guatemala. They also went as far as to say that the two goals Stern scored against Guatemala happened when a Guatemala player was being treated.

This not the first time I've observed the lack of objectivity with the Latin sports press. I hardly ever see such inaccuracies in local sports media. We tell it like it is and the some.

Post by: pioneertrini on October 14, 2005, 07:04:02 PM
they rel priks, those 2 goals was wen the player went off but it happends all the time in football, one of the other players should have been coverin, but if u see the stern winner v the guats did u see the 3 men unmarked at the back post, never in my life have i seen worse defending, so we punished them. so they have no 1 to blame but them selves. and all this stuff about v mexico, they seem to forget we went to mexico and played well if a couple things went differntly we could of had a draw and that was a full strength mexico who hadnt qualified yet. guatemala on the other hand played mexico in the biggest game in their history wen mexico was understrength and had already qualfiied. they scored in the 2nd minute and still got licks. and to make it worse they were basically given a point by usa. they were lucky to even get in the hex so they can piss off. they vex because they know it will be a long time b4 they get so close, they can wait 32 years as we did

Wasn't dis close 2 da same mex side dat played Guat.??

We plaed Mex in their yard and didnt get 5 in the heat of qualifying

La Volpe is under a bit of pressure so he wasnt commin to sell out

Mex was playing 4 1st place in concaf

so wat the f%$k all ah dem ah talk bout?????????
Title: Re: Mexico Sell Out
Post by: kounty on October 14, 2005, 09:10:57 PM
it have men go talk regardless, but I ent go lie, when I see it had a obvious corner when I think it was Yorke run straight back (what would be we left back position) and kick a  ball out the back line and the linesman say corner, and yorke and everybody say is a corner, adn the refree overrule and say is a spot kick...ah kinda tink in muh head - jack securing he investment or wha?  and how in the end the match kinda didn't run the full course of the amount of time the 3rd official put up..that kinda could look fishy to an outsider. 
Not taking anything from the boyz though, cuz anybody with 2 eyes who could see could clearly see that Mexico wasn't sellin' that game at all, and T&T absolutely play for and deserved to win.
Title: Re: Mexico Sell Out
Post by: ribbit on October 14, 2005, 09:14:42 PM
Mex was playing 4 1st place in concaf

the thing is that with the world cup seeding formula, mexico is already in the top bracket based on their last 3 world cup performances and ranking. not sure if usa is in the running but i doubt it. so mexico truly doesn't have anything past the qualifying stage to play for - except to avoid injury and PRIDE.

it and how in the end the match kinda didn't run the full course of the amount of time the 3rd official put up..that kinda could look fishy to an outsider. 


As I heard a commentator point out recently, when the game is stale and the result is not going to change, teams not trying etc, the refs have been giving the whistle before the full injury time has been played.  Nothing wrong wit dat, it was obvious Mexico wanted it to end.
Title: Re: Mexico Sell Out
Post by: Trini on October 15, 2005, 12:17:13 AM
Jus hear from someone home that the talk in Trini is that jack W have some talk going around that he taking CR to some fifa court shite, apparantly because of what he percieve as a sell out.

Dont know how true that is, in any event, Mex didnt send their full team to T&T as well, but I think is the exact team that hammer Guatemala a few days ago.

Anyone at home hear this?
Title: Re: Mexico Sell Out

Everybody has thier own little view depending on how they feel.

Did it occur to these commentators that when Guata played at home to an understrengthed American team, they could only draw.

Or that in the last four encounters between Mex and TT in POS, TT has only lost once.

Or that in 2001, we beat them and then later drew 1-1 with a 10 man side.

Biased bitches who probably didn't see the game.

I was telling the clowns on BigSoccer that when they were predicting that Mexico would give us three if we lucky.

I tell them that in th elast three games there Mexico win once over a poor coach, lost and drew 1-1 against 10 men only after we lost a man who get riled up by some gamesmanship.

Post by: kicker on October 15, 2005, 12:20:20 PM
yeah Mexico sell out........

that's why the keeper save the PK...which bribed keeper gonna save a penalty ??...

that's why the man lobbed Jack from the top of the box, when he coulda just blast it wide.......(steups)

people should just stick to what they know about....I heard rumors of Jack payin' off Mexico & CR before the game so that no matter what, we would get through to the play-off......I guess that is why CR went down to Guatemala and played the game of their lives right ?? (steups)....

Just because someone workin' for the press on the "inside" says it, doh make it the gospel...

that's over-simplified thinking....First off, you can bribe a referee, sure (and there's no guarantee in that)....but you can't pay "MEXICO"...who is Mexico ? the coach ? the players ? the football association ? the gov't ??...who ?? who yuh pay and how much ?? and how much did Guatemala pay Mexico ?? how long the negotiation took ? so Mexico just sat there and accepted cash offers from both sides and then decided.......hmmmm let's see who to let win ??..... and who is to say that they would accept it ?? who is to say that someone won't blow the whistle ?? People have huge reputations on the line if news like that gets out........ who is to say that the players won't just walk out and say f- that ??  who is to say that the players wouldn't still go out and still play to win ??

I believe that Mexico not having as much at stake, did not come out blazing as they could, and they didn't bring their best players....had Mexico needed to win, the game may have been different....that is a no-brainer...and it's inconsequential, because that is the nature of W.C. qualifiers... and I eh sayin' that pay-offs don't happen, sure...but to say that "Jack pay Mexico" and believe that jusso jusso is just over-simplified thinking. There is alot to take into consideration before you come out and say some shit like that.......(I get real vex when I hear men eatin' up rumors like that)

Title: Re: corruption must not be in we team
Post by: Filho on October 16, 2005, 05:22:50 PM
anything can happen..i eh dat naive, but my deep down personal feeling is that the game was legit. how you script what went on in dat game?...neither the players nor the referees did anything suspicious. De penalty had all de evidence you need to know nobody was tiefing.

1) we miss de blasted penalty: iif the Mexicans players were cheating..de penalty woulda score cuz de keep just hadda play he was flat footed cuz he thought he was going the other way.....AND...if the refs were cheating the man who fouled Stern woulda see red and get send off so we would be playing against 10

Also de Mexicans wouldn't be clearing ball off post and keep wouldn't be backpeddling to stop Stern spectacular volley.

however...Guetah 3 goals in 30 minutes against CR is very suspicious to me. I also find that 2 WCQ in a row Uruguay needed  a result against Argentina to get the 1/2 spot and both times they get exactly waht they needed from their close neighbors. People should be sepnding more time on dem 2 games for tiefin'...but say waht..we black, so we must get de hate....I doh care do..we still in it and if we get there..we getting there by merit

As a man say....dah Jack Warner real good.

Jack Warner miss de penalty

And de same Jack Warner was in position to put de ball in de net when Jack Warner shot rebound off de post

Simultaneously, Jack Warner kept his flag down to allow the goal to stand

Then Jack Warner leggo a bullet past Jack Warner in de Guatemalan goal to score T&T 2nd goal.

Same Jack Warner put up he flag to deny T&T a goal from a Jack Warner dribble and wall pass wit Jack Warner

Dah Jack Warner real good.  He all over de place.   ::)

I will be the first to admit that Mexico did not play with a full squad or at full speed, which was to our advantage, either way beating a Mex B squad is not small feat, didnt that same team give Guat 5 a few days before?

Post by: Trini on October 19, 2005, 05:33:22 AM
I have a question Bahrain Bobolee...

How on earth did FIFA order a replay between u and Uzbekistan?
After all, Uzbekistan had scored and was leading, then got a penalty.
The penalty had to be retaken because of a player who ran into the box as the kick was being taken.
I know it was an error by the Japan referee to award the free kick to Bahrain, when the penalty kick should have been retaken. So actually Uzbekistan should have been up 2-0 then.
How did FIFA find a way to make the game replayed?
I could have understood the decision if it was BAHRAIN who got the controversial penalty.
How much oil money did Bahrain pay to have the replay?
Uzbekistan deserved the 3-0 win they were seeking.
I personally find that is not fair to them.
So my question to you, why did FIFA give the game to Bahrain?
And you have the nerve to come here and post that Mexico brought a B team to play  us.
That Mexico B team will put no less than 5 goals past shitsnake Bahrain. You know it and I know it.

They are the laughing stock of all federations and now better move in to UEFA since the Arabian Football Ass. is so corrupt as it can be.
For anyone who doesn't know
A total clear win without interuptions of fans or weather got replayed because of a complain!!
Can you believe it ?! and Fifa got away with and probably some individuals with a lot of oil money.
So go T&T set it right, Fight corruption and bEAT Bahrain!


ASIA
Uzbekistan may join UEFA
Reuters

Uzbekistan may apply to join European football's governing body UEFA after what the Central Asian state called an unjust decision robbed it of a chance of reaching the World Cup finals.

"We, in Uzbekistan, always wanted to be a part of UEFA and after the latest events this process will certainly gain a new momentum," Alisher Nikimbayev, a senior official in the Uzbekistan Football Federation, told Reuters in an interview.

"What FIFA had done to us in regards of replaying our qualifier with Bahrain was very unjust. We feel very strongly about that."

Uzbekistan beat Bahrain 1-0 in the first leg of their Asian Zone World Cup qualifier play-off in Tashkent on September 3 but FIFA cancelled the result and ordered a replay following a mistake by Japanese referee Toshimitsu Yoshida.

FIFA, world football's ruling body, ruled that Yoshida had made a technical error in disallowing a converted Uzbekistan penalty and awarding Bahrain a free kick.

The two sides drew 1-1 in a rescheduled match on October 8 before Bahrain held the Uzbeks 0-0 in the second leg in Manama four days later to advance on the away goal rule.

"We have been robbed," Nikimbayev said. "First, we were robbed of a penalty, then they wiped away our 1-0 win which would have been enough for us to reach the play-off."

"Not a single person in the whole stadium understood what happened after the ref disallowed the penalty."

The Asian Football Confederation (AFC) suspended Yoshida indefinitely for his blunder.

"We feel sorry for Uzbekistan because they have been doubly punished, once for the penalty incident and then for having to replay the match they won," said AFC president Mohamed Bin Hammam.

Nikimbayev pointed the finger at FIFA for insisting on the replay. "Unfortunately, we don't have enough proof to say that FIFA would rather see a rich Arab state like Bahrain play in the World Cup than having us there," he said.

"For us it was the biggest chance to play in the World Cup finals and probably the last one in many years to come."

"I don't think we would get another chance like that for many years because most of our top senior players, back from the Soviet days, will now retire and it would take years before we could produce a new crop of good young players."

Bahrain face CONCACAF's Trinidad & Tobago in another play-off next month and the winner will advance to next year's World Cup finals in Germany.

Nikimbayev said Uzbek football would greatly benefit from joining UEFA.

"It would be a tremendous opportunity. We could raise our game to a new level," he said.

"Playing in the (European) Champions League would be a great boost for our game and would benefit us financially."

"All our fans would love it. Just imagine having Real Madrid, Chelsea or Man United come here."

Nisimbayev said geography should not be a problem, pointing to their Central Asian neighbours Kazakhstan and Australia as examples. "If Australians can join the Asian confederation and Kazakhstan become a UEFA member why not us?"

Kazakhstan became the newest member of UEFA in 2002 while FIFA's executive committee approved Australia's move from the Oceania confederation to the AFC earlier this year. Israel, once a AFC member, has also been playing in Europe for a long time.

Nisimbayev said it was a political decision to join the AFC.

"Right after the Soviet break-up we had a choice of joining either UEFA or AFC," he said.

"I remember (UEFA president Lennart) Johansson invited all 15 former Soviet republics to join UEFA way back in 1992."

"Uzbek soccer officials wanted it, our fans wanted it but we just couldn't convince our politicians back then," he added.

"Well, maybe now is a good time to have this issue settled."
