Football / Re: Edwards out Wednesday's world cup qualifier.
« on: August 19, 2008, 05:21:28 AM »It is clear to see that Carlos abscence is down to Roy Keene and nothing more,Keene had already stated his intentions long before the English season started.Trinidad is now at the mercy of the English managers to which our footballers are attached to.Lets hope that the home based boys that have been playing for us over the last year does the business for us.Keene even made sure that Yorke did not make
himself available with a fractured cheekbone.I have seen several players play with similar injury;the next week,Yorke had this so called injury about 5 or six weeks ago,Keene also made sure that Jones were not going to play in these matches by delaying Jones exploratary operation for about six weeks.Had that operation been done a couple days after the damage who knows how quick he would have recovered.We would continue to suffer this kind of past colonial behaviour by our past masters because these people do not care about us crossing that barrier which could make us their equal on the field of sport.I do hope the boys who are going to do battle see it this way
and play with their heart and souls.Let Keene know that we know he is a selfish ignorant Irishman and hopefully if we get into the Hex we would let FIFA deal with him.
man that is a dumb post.
why would jones's exploratory operation be delayed? how would that benefit keane or sunderland? surely they too want him back playing as soon as possible. my understanding is that they had to let the swelling go down first, and hopefully they could avoid having to operate at all because even an exploratory takes weeks to recover, i know as i've had it done myself. i'm not a doctor but i'm not an idiot either, come on, think about it.
as for edwards, he really looks to be lacking in confidence. against liverpool he was unwilling to do the things that made him the player he was just over a year ago, ie; shoot at the fist sign of an opportunity, run at defenders and get early crosses in. it's a reall shame, i hope he gets it back soon, he's a top fella and i want to see him succeed.
