Do you think he is further hurting the PFL by not selecting more local based players?

Since ppl like FF not looking out for us with his XL shirts, I bought a soca warriors baby tee on Ebay.
Got it yesterday and I LOVE it, print is nice, quality is good. Service was really good too.....a trini guy, he called me and everything. Oh and part proceeds going to the TTFF eventhough I tried to convince him to give directly to a school or something instead, with all the bobol in TTFF

24 December 2005

Who would have thought this time last year that the tiny island of Trinidad and Tobago would find itself looking forward to playing in the greatest football tournament in the world?
Up until the summer of 2005 and the arrival of Dutch coaching guru Leo Beenhakker, the prospect of qualification still seemed remote. And yet, after cleverly negotiating a tricky play-off with Bahrain (2-1 on aggregate), the dream has become a reality. T&T have earned the right to play in a FIFA World Cup™ and although Group B may seem to present an insurmountable obstacle, with matches against Sweden, England and Paraguay awaiting them, Dwight Yorke and his team-mates are currently filled with an unflappable sense of confidence.
The same could be applied to four of the five African qualifiers for Germany 2006. Reigning African champions Tunisia, who have a number of FIFA World Cup appearances already under their belts, managed to meet expectations and secure their finals place. Togo, Ghana, Angola and to a lesser extent Côte d'Ivoire confounded the pundits, however, and qualified for the first time in their respective histories.
Team of 2005?
Ghana were the real surprise team of 2005. A year ago, they found themselves behind South Africa and even the Democratic Republic of Congo, but Ratomir Dujkovic's men ended up overtaking the favourites in the home straight. Ghana recently won an award for their progress up the FIFA/Coca-Cola World Ranking and intend to keep up the good work. With a talented generation of players to call on, the Black Stars could well give some of the big names a few sleepless nights in Germany next June.
For Angola and Togo, one look at the teams they outmanouevred on the road to Germany is enough to judge their performances. In Group 1, Stephan Keshi's Togo finished ahead of Senegal – quarter-finalists at Korea/Japan 2002 – while Angola finished ahead of Nigeria in Group 4.
At the same time, Côte d'Ivoire showed in 2005 that they were indeed worthy of a place among the continent's new powers. Their qualifying campaign finished not with a bang but with a whimper, but Didier Drogba and his team-mates still managed to sneak ahead of Cameroon on the last day of the qualifiers. The Elephants have been drawn in Group C along with Argentina, Serbia and Montenegro and the Netherlands, and will be looking to silence those who have already written them off as whipping boys in this incredibly tough group.
Another of the surprises which 2005 threw up were Australia, who will be able to sample the joys of a FIFA World Cup for the first time in the 32 years since their last appearance, coincidentally also in Germany. And yet just a few months ago the Socceroos seemed to be on rocky ground; after a disappointing performance at the FIFA Confederations Cup Germany 2005 – where they lost all three games and leaked ten goals – Australia found themselves faced with questions as to their true worth.
Then along came Guus Hiddink – another Dutchman, like Beenhakker – to replace Frank Farina, and after coasting through to qualify for the Oceania/South America play-off, the Aussies succeeded where four years earlier they had failed, beating Uruguay (1-1 on aggregate, 4-2 on penalties). Could Australia now follow in the footsteps of Korea Republic, whom Hiddink was managing in 2002?
Trick up the sleeve
One continent where it is tough to shake up the old order is Europe, but even this confederation had a trick up its sleeve. Ukraine, with their first qualification, and Poland, both confirmed the promise they have shown since 2004 to make it through to football's world showpiece. AC Milan striker's Andriy Shevchenko and his compatriots were in fact the first team to qualify for Germany 2006.
Two other teams whose presence is no surprise had to make a wish, cross their fingers and count on a little bit of luck – namely France and Spain. These two European heavyweights got off to poor starts before turning things around in 2005. Les Bleus finished top of their group, whilst Luis Aragones' men only made it after overcoming Slovakia in a play-off (6-2 on aggregate).
With the world order of football being shaken up like this, all 32 qualifiers will no doubt be making wishes when the New Year is rung in, and crossing their fingers for a few extra Christmas presents to be delivered in June next year in Germany…
