Football / New Zealand make it to world cup at the expense of Bahrain.
« on: November 14, 2009, 05:21:22 AM »
New Zealand have reached the World Cup finals for the second time in their history with victory over Bahrain in their qualifying play-off second leg.

Striker Rory Fallon scored the decisive goal at the Westpac Stadium in the final minute of the first half with a header from a Leo Bertos corner.

All Whites goalkeeper Mark Paston also saved a 51st-minute penalty from Bahrain's Sayed Adnan.

The last time New Zealand reached the finals was in Spain in 1982.

With the sides drawing the opening match 0-0, Bahrain knew that a score draw would ensure their progress.

They attacked from the start but after weathering the opening onslaught, New Zealand fought their way into the game.

Leo Bertos and Celtic's Chris Killen both hit the woodwork while a Fallon header was brilliantly saved by goalkeeper Sayed Jafaar.

Fallon did strike just before the break but the visitors were handed a route back into the tie when Tony Lochhead fouled Abdulla Omar in the box although Paston stopped Adnan's weak effort.

New Zealand's Shane Smeltz had an opportunity to kill the game off in the 70th minute when he was put through by Bertos, but his deft flick went just wide.

"This group of players has given everything to achieve this dream, everything over the last four years," said New Zealand coach Ricki Herbert, who was a member of the defensive line that played in Spain.

"It's incredible. We're back. We're there."

New Zealand skipper Ryan Nelson, who plays for Blackburn, paid tribute to the 35,100 fans in Wellington - a record for a football match in the country.

"The crowd was incredible and I don't know if we could have won it without them," he said.

"They were our 12th man today and they got us home. I've played in some incredible atmospheres but this is right up there."

Bahrain also came close to securing a place at the last World Cup but lost out to Trinidad and Tobago at the same stage.

Hıs reasons for leavıng football were a bit ambiguous.

What really happen? Was it an injury?

That was truly an amazing array of talent on the 1990 team.

What ever happened to D. Pacheco?

VB

I think I remember him breaking his leg and after that I haven't heard of him. I always wondered what happen to him.

When TTFF bussin price in man ass, the public does always be kickin up a fuss... They practically allow the public to come in for free, imagine u get 2  see a double header for a measley $50 and only 500 man show up... Yuh eh see JW and dem does be right not to take on people when they complaining bout cost of tickets... Pay alyuh blasted money next time.... SHIT man!
Is better they did play that game in Tobago although they need to play in that stadium due to the game being played there on Saturday.
I think the public tired of the association and their shit. I would have love to see them play, but I am stock here at work in the US.

Nice read but how would you explain the success of Italy ?

Italy has a very successful league and is able to attract talented players to their soil. Though England have the talent, it's not that much of a large country, hence the short fall in talent pool. They will have to consider playing more of their talented black players.

I don't think he should have been replaced, but I believe having both John and Jones would have paid dividends. I am looking at it as replacing John with new signing Rade Prica. At the moment, it seems to be a bad move by Keane. I am sure he is kicking himself for that mistake, though he may not admit it. Again, it's tough to have your entire team going away for a friendly, but he is doing just that with the Irish contingent.

It's really nice to see how foreigners/fans appreciate our players,if we can only get that at home our stadiums will be filled not only for international games but our club and all,i wonder how many autographs he signs when he at home,this is what makes players play the way they do,it's the fans,they can either make or break you,we are very quick to put down our players instead of lift them up,if players are to become stars they need encouragement,players that leave our shores improve because of the treatment they get out there,we take everything for granted,the fans are addicted to the game they grasp at anything a player has down to his Jockey shorts as a souvenir.
Well said man

You foot need ah compass - This means a player is always off target when trying to pass the ball or when trying to score. :)

I am sure he knows. Kean also pointed that out in a statement. He needs the support and he has been great. He is just trying to drive him. Don't forget dwight lead us to the promise land as a captain.

Football / Dwight's challenge to Kenwyne
« on: January 29, 2008, 08:43:15 AM »
Dwight's challenge to Kenwyne



Dwight Yorke today challenged Kenwyne Jones to show the Premier League he can be one of the best in the business.
Sunderland's leading scorer is tipped for the very top, but Yorke demanded more from his countryman as the Black Cats battle to stay in the elite.

The Trinidad & Tobago veteran admitted the Wearsiders' next two home games – against Birmingham tonight and Wigan on Saturday week – could have a huge impact on their survival chances and urged Jones to show the hype surrounding him is well founded.

Yorke said: "The guy has got all the features and all the ingredients to be a top player. I still feel there is a lot for him to learn, but he has come here and he has done a fantastic job for us so far.

"But it is all right doing it for a certain time, you have to do it week in, week out.

"This has been half a season for Kenwyne in the Premier League, and yet people are ranting and raving. You judge someone not on just a season, you judge people over season upon season.

"When people know a little more about you, that's when you will be tested. He has done well for himself, but he needs to continue to do well for Sunderland Football Club.

"I am sure everyone in the dressing room knows that he is a big player for us. But we need more from him as well. We need him to probably get more goals for us.

"He has been great, but there is a little bit more to
come from Kenwyne."

Yorke played 13 Premier League games in his single campaign with Birmingham during 2004-05 before moving to Sydney. His Sunderland side pipped the Blues to the Championship title last season and the stakes are even higher this time round.

The 36-year-old said: "The important thing is that we don't lose faith, we stick together and we show a lot of courage and character between ourselves. Hopefully the spirit we play with will get us across the finishing line."There's no doubting that Birmingham and Wigan at home are massive games. They're the teams around us.

"We should not rule out that we can get positive results away from home, even though we have not managed to do so yet. But these are the games that will turn our season without a doubt.

"We need a massive result tonight and hopefully we can overcome that and look forward to Saturday at Liverpool."

The full article contains 447 words and appears in Sunderland Echo newspaper.

Dwight knows his potential and knows he is due for a goal.

On SMB it's also rumoured that Keane is targeting Beckham for a loan spell.

After what Lalas said on Sky. He would look like a imps if that happens. But it would be good for them financially. them meaning LA.

Very talented players.

 St Clair coaching school

That's a good one for those who can't go overseas. He has produced some very talented youths in the pass. Yorke, Hutchinson and Wendell More just to name a few. Everybody in Tobago who serious abut their children football and mental development sends their children there. Good local one.

As a matter of fact I have a 1 year old who is playing with the ball as we speak. I would love to get him in Ajax or Arsenal youth System. I love the Dutch brand.

Football / Shaka Hislop signs up with ESPN.
« on: January 08, 2008, 11:33:37 AM »
Shaka Hislop signs up with ESPN.
By: Shaun Fuentes (TTFF).
[/size]

Former National team goalkeeper Shaka Hislop has joined the broadcast teams of ESPN Soccernet Press Pass and SportsCenter program strands.
ESPN today announced the deal officially which will see the former outstanding Premiership goalie providing expert comment and analysis to both programs on a regular basis. In total, Hislop played almost 400 games in his career, the vast majority in the Premier League.
He played for West Ham in two separate spells and also played under Manager Harry Redknapp twice. He retired from football, aged 38, in August last year, after spending a season with Dallas FC in the MLS.
Hislop was one of a only a few players who, because of his dual nationality, played for England before going on to represent and captain his native Trinidad and Tobago, including at the 2006 FIFA World Cup. During the tournament he aided England’s progress through the group stages by keeping a brilliant clean sheet against their major group rivals Sweden.
“I am excited to be joining ESPN, the undisputed leader in sports broadcasting. Given my career at club and international level I think it is a great move for me and a fantastic opportunity and I am looking forward to it. After 15 years in the game as a player you are sometimes tempted to think you have seen it all. I think there are a lot of things I can bring to the viewers with my playing experience and I look forward to sharing that with others.”
A release from ESPN stated that Hislop’s commentary will appear on Africa, Middle East, the Caribbean and the Pacific Rim versions of SportsCenter and Press Pass. They will also be available in the UK on ESPNsoccernet.com. Both programs are produced in ESPN’s headquarters in Bristol, Connecticut, where the latest in digital technology and new media distribution occurs.
Hislop was previously likely to take up an offer from a Trinidad University but negotiations there stalled last year and Hislop was lured over by the network giants.
"It really wasn't too hard a decision to make eventually," Hislop told TTFF Media. "It is something I've always thought about and it gives me the chance to stay close to the game. With the playing side coming to an end I always knew I would have to head over into something else whether it be in the coaching or management aspect or in this case in the promotional side of the sport and I'm really looking forward to it," he added.
