Football / Re: Soca Warriors in 2015 Copa America?
« on: July 22, 2011, 10:50:41 AM »
This will further lead to the death of Caribbean football. Teams like Grenada, Guadeloupe etc would more than likely have no chance to showcase their skills to the world (via Gold Cup).

Yes, the Conancacaf teams would be exposed to higher quality football, but when you consider that teams like the USA, Mexico are well capable of organizing games with top class oppositions on the regular, you realize that its not such a big deal after all. In fact, Jamaica has played Peru, Ecuador, Venezuela, Uruguay, Paraguay, Argentina, Brazil in friendly games in the past, and still has teh capacity to do that. 

Dont see this happening.

Can't agree with this post either. First of all, "the Word" does not watch the Gold Cup...It's barely a global showcase and those who do watch are not walking away with meaningful memories of Grenada and Guadeloupe (neither Jamaica, nor T&T in the days when we used to actually qualify for the Gold Cup)... Gold Cup (especially of late) is about USA and Mexico...And comparing the occasional friendly with playing a competitive tournament against those teams you mention is also kind of naive. 

The world does not watch the gold cup, but its the pinacle of exposure for most caribbean and Central american teams. The proposed new tournament would have six concacaf teams involved...if they go on rankings to determine who gets in, then you can effectively expect possibly no caribbean team getting in... If there is a playoffs, again, you can count on no more than two caribbean teams getting through. If its on an invite basis, then you can expect Mexico, USA, Canada getting automatic spots, and at least two invites (top two finishers) from UNCAF...and possibly the winner from CFU....goodbye to teams like Grenada, guadeloupe, Cuba, who now have to either win CFU or place second to get in. the top CFU team would struggle to get results away in south America. Consistently getting 4-0 drubbings by superor teams does nothing to the development of your football.


Have you bothered to look at the world rankings lately? It clearly states after Mexico and the USA the next highest team in the region....Jamaica. The same reggae boyz who dropped both Honduras and Guatemala at the Gold Cup. I get angry at the fact nobody really gives the CFU any credit because unfortunately the stronger always have a way longer road in order to qualify for the Gold Cup. I'm waiting for the year when CFU has Haiti, T&T, Jamaica, and Cuba as the representatives. Then we'll see how much luck the UNCAF will have then.

As I said before, the Haitian team in T&T is our U-23 with just a couple older guys. Most of them have never been capped before.

To make it worse, the coach has sent home two key players Eliphene Cadet (he refused to train for the SVG game) and Versailles (indiscipline). Haiti's key defender Parnel Guerrier has accumulated two yellow cards and won't be in tonight. The trouble there is that Versailles is the only guy who could really replaced Parnel. Also, remember Eliphene Cadet is the big tall forward who would be putting pressure on T&T's defense.

Haiti will be lucky to escape with a draw.

Of course, Haiti will still have Sony Norde to force fouls and St-Preux to score on free kicks! They both have excellent individual skills that can cause trouble.

hey don't forget Fabien 'Prince' Vorbe, he's been quiet so far but he's due for a breakout game. look for him to give the soca warriors back line some trouble.

Thank you for the updates, Fire.

Match over, 3-1 to Haiti, VIN eliminated.  There were text updates at the below link as well as being partially broadcast (they'd come in for 5 minutes then go to commercials for 5 minutes) on Haitian radio.

Lets look on the bright side- After the El salvador game the experience World Cup coach would have seen most of our best players- Being an experience coach he would know who his best X! would be. Patience is the name of the game until he calls the squad for Cuba.
 Having read the comments about the Cuba game against our under 17- where it was said they were well coached, let us hope Maturana is not outcoached on the 20th.

If anyone ask me, with Maturana coaching we team it look like  we go geh beat up with we full squad. I can't believe we still taking licks from teams like Haiti and ting. Our brand of football is not showing any type of improvements at all. It has nothing to do with our foreign players being away etc.  When yuh have a garbage coach your team will produce garbage results. Let them come DC on the 14th with that...is realle Boo for them...I ent care. Ah coming with meh egg basket.
Ah guess you didn't watch the gold cup last yr, neither were you aware that Haiti beat us to win the degicel cup, cause if you did you would not have made such an arrogant statement!

FYI , Haiti did very well in the gold cup , and gave teams like MEX & CR a way to go, even Guadeloupe ran rings over the central american giants. you must think that every body remained the same and those teams that faded into oblivion a few yrs ago did not make ah strong come back.

Haiti is ah boss team and if i beat them 2-0 @ home and lose 1-0 in Haiti to a thieving referee with an all local team, then consider that a bonus. common guys ah can't believe we complaining BC we lost 1-0 to Haiti, in haiti with an all local team!!!! ALLYUH FOR REAL !!!!!!!!!

um....you do realize Haiti was playing with an all local squad too rite? I'm not trying to sound like a hater but i still couldn't believe Haiti lost to the soca warriors last week. In both games Haiti massively controlled possession,passes wit while T&T can't even make 3 straight hout losing the ball.
if that was the case then how come yuh didn't win by 3 or 4 goals, if you are so dominant a team. tell me this, how come every time you entered the final 3rd you failed to get pass the defence ? my point is , you could posses 99% of the game and still lose.

possesion is only 25% of football , you could posses most the game and concede on every counter attack . let me ask you this how many good looks did haiti get as oppossed to T&T. we had better scoring opportunites , and squandered every one, you on the other hand had less. goals win matches , not possesion and pretty passing.

BTW you guys played us with 12 men! your haitian referee included. tell me this , why if you guys are sooooo superior, why is it that you felt the need to foul us every time we touched the ball ?                                             positive.

well winning is what everything comes down to but unlike you i'm not all ecstatic over winning ugly which is what both teams did in both those matches. Joga Bonita is just as important as winning, possession isn't everything but it does show the more advanced squad. How do you expect the soca warriors to win in Havana next week if all they can depend on are counter attacks???

BERMUDA MOVE PAST GUYANA ON SUDDEN-DEATH PENALITIES     
Aug 05, 2008 at 09:17 PM 

In a tense play-off for a quarterfinal slot tomorrow night, Bermuda defeated Guyana in sudden death penalty kicks. Normal time ended in a goalless draw which forced the match into extra time. In the 113th minute, Guyanese #12 scored the first goal of the match only for Bermuda's #19 Vance Leverock to equalize well into the 120th minute. 

Bermuda then won after scoring 6 of their 8 penalties taken while Guyana only made five. Bermuda now face Cuba in the CFU Men's U-17 Qualifiers at Guaracara Park tomorrow at 4:00 pm.

Flash who is the danger man on that haitian team......

well if i had to guess it would probably be Wislet St. Louis (#7), he scored 2 goals in 2 minutes (35"; 36") against the Cayman Islands but Jeff Theodore as well as Jeff Louis are players to watch out for too.

Yeah i remember that, Mexico sent it's B team to T&T after their A team did their job & thrashed Guatemala. It was all perfectly planned out. I guess Mexico hasn't forgiven los chapines over what happened back in 1990.
