That does not mean they not talented or skillful. It means the coaches looking for something else.
No it doesn't kind sir.....it means that they are not talented or skillful enough....like Mr Theobald.
I was, in my estimation, better at academics than football, and made my choices accordingly so jealously does not factor in any of my personal equations.
And if you see the humour in my posts, I am both glad and appreciative.....most ppl who suffer from the inability to adequately comprehend find humour in things they dint understand.
Why are the T&T tv stations so selfish. Don't they know that there is a passionate football audience in T&T. For those T&T football fans who are unable to go to the stadium the stations should at the most have the football matches taped-delay.
Here in Jamaica TVJ and TVJ Sports Network will be showing all the matches of the 2nd round qualifiers. All the 1st and 2nd legs of every matchup will be shown everyday leading into the first matches of the semi-final round. The Reggae Boyz games will obviously be shown live and all the semi-final games will be taped-delayed also. Depending on the time that other teams will be playing apart from the Reggae Boyz. That match will be shown live on either TVJ or TVJ Sports Network.
Yesterday I watched the El Salvador vs Panama 2nd leg qualifier on TVJ while TVJ Sports Network was showing the 1st leg. TVJ is now showing the first cricket ODI between the West Indies and Austrailia. And since TVJ Sports Network showed the Belize vs Mexico 1st leg this morning the same game will be repeated at 3 pm today. So it means that the Bahamas vs T&T 2nd leg WC qualifier will be shown tomorrow or sometime this week or weekend.
You see. Even with Jamaica's GDP lower than T&T's. The Jamaica tv media knows the value of what the Jamaican public likes.
They don't own the stadium. They own the naming rights to the club and ground.
go re-read the article, because they own the freehold and naming rights.
God is de BOSS....
The Guardian was informed that, in recent years, the TTFF was called upon to pay a rental of $3,000 plus VAT or ten per cent of the gate receipts, whichever sum was greater, plus $2,000 and VAT for electricity.
that is madness if I had known this I would have book the stadium for a fete match ! dat is only $178 for a two teams of 14 !
But Benjie, seeing as how we have ah problem with defending wouldn't have been better to keep these players around and mix them with the younger players so that they could learn ah thing or two, instead of just leaving them out in the cold.....
.....and I don't know about you but I somehow feel if the players had not stood up to de TTFF and not been blacklisted, they would have been in the mix from after the WC up to the current day and we would not be having this discussion today......
until the younger players show that they have what it takes to hold down de back...give me my older, more experienced players any day....
whappen to sancho, lawrence, atiba charles, gray, them men could still play for we and at the back, i wouldnt be concerned bc sancho and lawrence are our best defenders and can still play
God is de BOSS...
Somebody has to pay for the upkeep and if concerts and the like are not allowed where the continuous influx of money coming from because people only attend a few sporting events in large numbers quite sporadically. They already paying a ridiculous 25% income tax so they eh really quick to pay for it direct with higher ticket prices.
Tax payers money will have to continue to upkeep these places....is a matter of how efficiently they are maintained and who is given responsibility for same.
I don't believe the facilities are underutilized...might be the opposite.
Top of the morning forumites. let me begin by saying, i'm pretty sure the majority of us are already aware that we will be going up against Bermuda in june for phase 1 of our WC journey to SA2010.
i was hoping it was cayman islands TBH since we seem to always struggle against Bermuda for some strange reason, that and we didn't get enough playing time together as a complete team for over a year.
Bermuda's federation president Larry Mussenden seem to think that he could suprise us come june, i just hope he's wrong about his predictions and we have the fortitude to get pass underrated Bermuda to the semifinal round of qualifying.
i know a lot of yuhs would think that i'm being some what timid in my view, but i have good reason to be since jack warner & co. has been pussy footing since oct 06.
we've not played with our full strenght team since st Vincent and the Grenadines, and quite frankly that scares me.
we still don't have the stallwart defence we build for the last WC in germany, players the like of marvin andrews, brent sancho and dennis Lawrence, has been completely ignored by our federation, in exchange for the services of less experience untested players the likes of power , thomas and adams, not knocking any of our players , but we need these three defenders if we're to get into the final round of qualifying.
i think we're ok in the midfield department with fellas like Whitley, Edwards, hyland, roberts, K. daniel, and up front we're pretty decent as well, with KJ , bravo, scotty, glenn, to choose from , but we need a proper defence to go up against our hungry opponents in concacaf.
just curious to know what allyuh think. all views would be highly appreciated. i just have ah strange feeling that we might be punished for our lack of preparation, please prove me wrong. positive.
since 94 no doubt!!!!The plan is for Jamaica to qualify until 2099.ok I get ya now
Simones 8-year plan actually began in 1994 when he pointed out that a proper club system was needed in Jamaica. This was done when the club system became a "job" for Jamaican footballers.Something tells me that Simones 8-year plan is slowly coming to fruitation.
8 year plan? is not last year that Simmoes get hired? So that mean y'all gunning for 2015 ?
When Simones returned he said the stepping stone had began and he now saw some improvement in the Jamaican football club system and the local players.
For now Simones recent results speaks for itself. 3 friendlies: 2 wins and 1 draw.
Brazilian tour. 3 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss.
crowd turnout was REAL poor...
i figure the weather and the price mainly had something to do with it
charging $100 for the double header and $50 for the 2nd game alone with no big name teams or players( no offense to anyone...just mean they have no Soca Warriors from the WC and we weren't playing a qualifier or a top team like Italy etc.)
reach to hear mexico win on PK's like 8-7!..that not confirmed
not sure of the whole startin side since one or 2 i not sure of..
but Marvin Phillip started in goal..had a decent game in my opinion..didnt get much to do but he had to cut out some thru balls and made a good save int eh 1st half low to his right
almost fell asleep on a ball over the top but he got there and punched it out and keyeno thomas saved him ont he line for the follow up...
centre backs looked like Noriega from J. Public and Keyeno Thomas (how long he in football now jed?? someone give me a age check!)
wing backs i not sure of at alll...think the left back (#15)---he REAALLLL lucky he didnt get sent off a couple times...for some tackles he could have easily gotten yellows for and then a nasty lookin tackle where he hit the haitian player below the knee....looked bad!...not sure if it was Nicholson thomas or if it was Pacheco...
he was iffy...
and the right back too..he was...well let's jus say the wing backs coulda been better..dont know who he was wore teh #6 ..same thing...either nicholson thomas or pacheco here.
midfield was Theobald(kinda questionin if he is the answer to the holding midfield position??)...isnt there other option in the PFL at that position...dont think baptiste would be as effective there
anyways
keon daniel also in the centre...he was sub par..disappeared a lot
rigth side was spann...was ok...sometimes too timid...wonder if the injury is still bothering him or making him play less aggressive
and left side was christian baptsite from defence force i believe...he was ok..but nothin extraordinary i find
up front glasgow and darryl roberts
darryl looked good in the first half in my opinion..his touches real on as usual..not no forward with real pace but he real smart and know the game....man was rockin the #14 too yes.....take stern no. one time!
glasgow was ok int he first half...didnt get as much service as he should have...was runnin a lot...
but 2nd half he was shi***** on himself for a time until i think he see the subs warming up and then he try to fight up a lil...
K. Baptiste came on for Spann...he look decent...buss a jokey ass dive as he come on too
toussaint came on for glasgow and the 7 foot looking mcfarlane came on for darrly who was quiet int eh 2nd half
toussaint looked real good..the subs made a impace in a game that was gettin boring fast! somebody bawl out in the stands "is nto a fete match!"...was movin real slow at that point
toussaint tease dem fellas on top the box and shoulda had a assist but mcfarlane dragged his left footer wide inside the box!!
was a good goal int he end toussaint scored....heard his moms is haitian...eh know if that true..kinda ironic...
hopefully toussaint starts with darryl on wed.
this is the kinda tournament we should be tryin some diff players...we done in a bad position with the WC players being out for the Gold Cup
toussaint and kerry baptiste should start...bench spann and glasgow
christian baptiste deserve another look...but he hadda work harder
glasgow was gettint he crowd vex too..a man must have clipped his ankle while he was runnin across the midfield with the ball and he stopped and left it!! luckily theobald i think, was right there to take it...he did that a couple more times....the crowd wasnt likin it at all
hopefully the turn out is better in Wednesday....and if they smart they should chagre a $30...sit anywhere...i bet they get 5 times the crowd
