Football / Sinking ship

After watching TNT vs Haiti I had to post this song in tribute to the national team, the ship has sunk. That was by far the worst performance to date and a very shameful performance.

I am sure after the 2-2 draw with El Salvador many bandwagonist came back in support of the soccer team but after last night's performance the line was drawn.

I love my soccer but Trinidad's soccer is just not attractive to watch, plain awful at times. I wonder if we play Tahiti who will win.

Carlos is meh boy and bleeder are two senior players but their time is up. The sad thing is that there are no players who can replace them with their experience. This is a shame.

How do you play two attackers who are so similar and stationary, there was no one to put the defenders under any pressure by making runs off the ball.

There was no creativity or imagination, not just in the last third, the whole pitch for TNT. I saw the El Salvador/Guatemala game and the creativity and imagination of the two teams were amazing, the midfielders would actually thread balls through knowing the attackers would be on the same page to make those runs, very nice indeed.

I have noticed that TNT players do not dribble anymore, even within the confines of team ball. This is shocking. 

Our overall pace of game is too slow for elite soccer. As they is say in Trini - today for tomorrow.

I have not solutions for the team, just speechless. Where do we go next. How do we as a nation turn soccer around to get on the world's stage

Overall, F. The only way we can go is to fail forward

Football / Naparima vs Mucurapo

« on: October 21, 2008, 12:19:51 PM »

With all the attention given to the national team lately we have not been paying attention to the college league soccer.  Naparima College again stands out this year and it's just the beginning, we taking it all this year.  Mucurapo does not have a chance today.  Congrats to NAPS for being the most consistent team in Trinidad for the last decade or so, keep it up guys. NAPS truly have a structure and a plan and it's working.

Football / Anybody knows the whereabouts of Irasto Knights?

The last time I heard of him he was in the US after playing ball down in trini with Caledonia.  I will never forget how Bertille St. Clair made him cut off his dreads so he could make the national team back in the day. He was a good player, could kick the ball real hard.

Football / Ipswich offer for Jason Scotland.

Magilton looks to Scotland.

Ipswich boss Jim Magilton is after Swansea hitman Jason Scotland after failing to land David Nugent from Portsmouth on loan. Scotland grabbed his 18th goal of the season in Friday's 2-1 loss to Millwall.

Scotland and Spurr on Jim's Wish-List?
By Phil.

Swansea City striker Jason Scotland and Sheffield Wednesday left-back Tommy Spurr are on Jim Magilton’s wish-list, according to this morning’s tabloids.
 
Scotland is said to be the player the Town manager will look to now that the David Nugent deal has broken down and Fulham have said David Healy is not available for loan.

Swansea are likely to be reluctant to allow the 29-year-old Trinidad and Tobago international to leave on loan at this crucial stage of the season as they push for the League One title. The Swans are currently eight points clear at the top of the table with Scotland their highest scorer with 22 goals.

Scotland, whose deal at the Liberty Stadium is up in the summer of 2009, joined Swansea from St Johnstone in the summer on a nominal fee after two years at McDiarmid Park. Prior to that, the 5ft 8in tall frontman was with Dundee United, having started his career with San Juan Jabloteh and Defence Force in his home country.

Nicknamed ‘Rocket’, Scotland has won 28 caps with Trinidad and Tobago and was in their squad for the 2006 World Cup.

Spurr, 20, has established himself at left-back for the Owls over the last few seasons and has attracted the attention of a number of other clubs.

QPR were keen to sign the 6ft 1in tall Leeds-born defender during January but Wednesday turned down three offers, the highest believed to be in the region of �£1 million. Spurr is contracted to the Owls until 2009.
