Football / Re: Would Yorke at his peak make Chelsea's team?
« on: January 06, 2006, 09:44:09 AM »
I think he would. As to his level of success, I don't know, he would get good service at Chelsea also but who and how will he get on with his strike partner.

Good point footballking, you beat me to it. This is the type of attitute that killing T&T, why should we give the ex-coach a BONUS??? Do we understand what the word bonus means?? why are we rewarding failure and bad performances??? We have to get away from the " he was dey in the beginning so leh ee give him a lil something" attitude... only in T&T.
I know some men on this forum will say , "oh, he contribute to the cause" but the fact is, anybody who ever represented T&T contributed to where the team is today, so where do you draw the line. BSC had the squad playing like a savanna side, it ws embarassing to watch at times.. but yet we reward him?? wasn't he getting a salary??? what kind of message we sending??? steeeeups!!!

Football / Re: Who will win in Germany ?
« on: January 05, 2006, 09:46:39 AM »
A safe bet would be Argentina or Brazil, preferably Argentina, but so far in the qualifying stages, we have seen a number of 'firsts', so I will go out on a limb and say that a country who have never won before will do so in '06. Spain always seems to choke so my outsider to win will have to be the boy from the 'low lands'
cheers T&T in the 2nd round

Football / Re: Should the game of Football be changed???
« on: January 02, 2006, 09:51:37 AM »
rubbish..football is the world's most popular sport and called the beautiful game for a reason, the changes that are proposed in the article will be the death of football. The game has reached its popularity and universal appeal because of its SIMPLICITY!!!! I agree with changes to avoid time wasting.. but nothing radical as was suggested

Has this ever happend before or is this a first?
?.. I've never heard of anything like this ever happening. I dont think the manager have a choice after he publicly called his players cowards...

Football / Re: Dwight is TTFF’s 2005 ‘Player of the Year’
« on: January 01, 2006, 03:23:26 PM »
Congrats Dwighty. Thoroughly deserved, never played better for the Red White and Black. Let us not get carried away with who scored what, we are on the big stage now and cannot afford to be overly simplistic in our analysis... this award is for player of the year!!! not most goal. After the terrible start we had to the hex.. it took great leadership and a tremendous courage to lead T&T, keep team moral high and keep the belief that we could qualify. Dwight in my mind is the only person who could have gotten Latas to rejoin the team, and we all know what a boost that was.. There were lot of players who deserve mention for their oustanding moments but the skipper was the glue that held the team together...

Good intention, but the end result ...not so good. Seems like NOT a whole lot of thought went into this idea and the commercialization (Berger) ...shameful. Just the beginning of a long line of companies trying to associate themselves with the SW. I dont know, but I wonder how much $ they've contributed to the WC campaign.
Anyone knows which local companies have made major contributions thus far??

Football / Re: Are TNT players innately talented or are they products of a .......?
« on: December 28, 2005, 07:53:32 PM »
Colvin was a boss, but going back to the issue at hand. T&T have talent like anyone else in the football world, one of our problem is lack of planning and managerial skill to compete at the international level (listen to the interview with JB). We dont have (as yet) a tradition football tradition like England or Germany etc. Secondly, is our culture, we are so laid back and this attitude sometimes transfers to our work/profession and yes, our sport. We like to prepare for two weeks for a big tourney. Just like Carnival , when 1 year of work is mostly completed between Christmas and February or look how sometime we like to stay up 'till 2:00 o'clock Christmas morning baking ham and sewing curtain.
Our work ethic is poor (except for Carnival )and this is one area the US will always kill us in.. Ask anyone who played college ball in the US, when they come back to Trini and play against local players, they find themselves playing at much faster pace, with more urgency and with a greater work rate. We have to start developing not just the skill and talent of younger players (this i believe is natural an God given)but of equal importance , we have to develop their attitude towards the game... sorry for the long post I new at this..

Palos, great interview, brought back a lot of memories, not just about '89. I was born in St Ann's and the first time I could ever remember kicking a ball was on the sideline at a Rangers game, back in the day before they were Superstar Rangers, just Rangers (they played in green). I remember pushing pan for Kintops (Jb an them pan side from up in the valley) an later playing ball with JB little brother Doctors... so thanks for the interview and the memories and big up to JB....
