Why doesn't jack provide an itemized statement of how the funds would be used......every time he wants money he sounds as if the team is on its last cent and everything would implode if money is not received right away.

Football / Re: For those involved in US Soccer .... a nice article

the writer failed to properly explain why it's a middle class sport and why it will remain like that......and it's for one simple reason fields....fields aren't generally located within city limits so it becomes logistically difficult for an "inner city" kid who wants to play the game.

I thought Alvin was the coach but not liking to be wrong didn't answer.... I understand where you're coming from in that he was doomed to failure one way or another but CK was responsible for that comment not me. I'm not fan of Alvin Corneal even though if you were to go down North Carolina and mention his name people start bowing in reverence. I've met both players and coaches who have nothing but praise. Ah eh know but I want him to saty far from the national team.

MEP: I think you making a mistake. All four of these players were boss players. Craig, Skinner and Simmons all very talented defenders. Corneal...if is Anton you talking about...also a boss player and one of the most skillful youth players to come through the ranks. Coaching school have nothing to do with these fellas playing for the National team. In fact I think that Anton never had a fair chance because most people believe he made the team because of his father, and on the other hand he didn't make the team for the same dumb reason.
Coaching school was the standard of excellence for young players back in those days...doy you know that York; Latas; Faustin,Haynes ect. also played with Coaching school?

MEP, you seem to have some knowledge of that era. Three quick questions for you. When did Anton and Craig make there national team debut? What team were they playing with? and Who was the National team coach at the time?

Some knowledge just some.......padnah...and ah sufferin from selective memory too but to answer yuh question when they made their debut off the top ah meh head cyah remember....I believe they maybe have been with Maple and ah don't want to venture a guess at to who the coach was....Lordy..yuh have meh searchin in the deep recesses of meh memory....

Like ah say they only had one quality player of the the 4  that should have made it big on the national level and that was Skinner....yuh sound like a Fatima man CK1...Garnet Craig just never really impress me enough for him to be a national player. Anton Corneal was good yes I don't disagree with that but I'm comparing him to the pool of players that were available at that time and as a striker he would have been 4 or 5 on my list.

There are some Secondary starts who never make the transition to the big time.


Garnet Craig, Skinner, Corneal and Ronnie Simmons are some footballers who should have done better. I think at times they were the victims of curious selection policies.

Out of those 4 one only was a quality player and that was Skinner...the other 3 made it to the national team because they went to coaching school.
Incidentally, the unsung hero of that Fatima defence was a 14 year old youth called Fritz.

If allyuh want to call "great players" in the late 70's Belmont Sec had a team that consisted of players like Sacky, Bird, Blip and Plucky.

One of the reasons why players like Rocke never received  national level attention is that they chose schools that gave them little or no exposure to a higher level game.
 When the influx of Trinibago players into US colleges started in the 80's a lot of guys saw an education as something that lasts a lifetime and football as only a temporary thing. If you look at schools in the NE Conf. the teams were a lot stronger then than they are now.

Hmmmmm hospital.....africa.....ospital ...africa ...hmmmm ...now if we drop the h in hospital perhaps if he were speaking mandarin or cantonese we might get a similarity between the two words. But just the phrase itself send him back to hospital? that's a new one.....the fact is he didn't like the play Atiba Harris made so he said the first thing off the top of his head and I'm almost certain it wasn't hospital.

Beenie is the coach and as coach he has his plans outlined and he knows what he is doing......the only problem I have with him is that the locally based players should be playing more international competition even if their chances of going to Germany is slim.

Football / Re: 10- Weeks Before Our NEXT GAME...Is this Wise

« on: March 02, 2006, 06:28:35 PM »

The one thing Beenie doesn't have is the luxury of having most of his team in the same place.  10 weeks might seem to be a long lay-off but I guess his plan is that the more high level competition the team plays closer to WC the better match prepared they will be. Come May it will be a case of 5 games in 5 weeks and he won't have to worry about clubs and people being available. Then again people might argue against that saying that he might run the risk of injury. I'm sure he has a fair idea of who will comprise the core team and it's a matter of working out little glitches like the left side.

I think Beenie just giving the fellas a run. First game in so many months and they only practice 3 times in the last 2 days.

Yorke eh de fittest man man on de field....for his age he does seem fit but remember in Germany it go be young boys like Rooney he playing against..
