Waldrum writes to TTFA: I can take over the women’s programme.
By Andrew Gioannetti (Guardian).
FORMER head coach of the TT senior national women’s team Randy Waldrum has written to the TT Football Association to express his interest in rejoining the team, saying he is “not too concerned with his financial package” if he is to be considered and that there are prerequisites that come with his offer.
“As the former women’s national team coach of Trinidad and Tobago, I have obviously followed the situation very closely since leaving there after the last World Cup qualifiers,” he wrote in an email directed to the TTFA hierarchy on Monday.
“I love your country and more importantly the players in the program, so I would certainly entertain the possibility of returning to coach the team again.”
d new structure seems sound, kinda look like 4-1-4-1 not sure, we seemed to be pressing in central areas and I saw what looked like urgency both in d tackle and d ball movement at times....nice dat we can get some ah dat from pro league players.....ah fair startIt's a start. We want to see progress now leading up to the Gold Cup!
Jealousy is the tribute mediocrity pays to genius and successAint! Say it again. The people who always criticize cant do a damn in anything!
JA has the potential to be a powerhouse in Concacaf. Throw Leon Bailey into the mix, and is fire.
I not surprised at the depth JA has overseas. I find that even some of the smaller Islands have more depth than TT. Grenada has 2 premier league players and a handful in the lower divisions that they haven't tapped into as yet. . Just something to think about.
Jamaica by far has the most depth overseas because of their travel and migration history. T&T has depth, but we don't scout well and our federation is a mess. Jamaica tends to play higher quality friendlies.
In all fairness, TT had an average of 7 players missing per match.Barbados and Guyana were also missing players, though not as many. But that's part of the problem! Why weren't Bravo and Pooran selected? It is partly the shabby way our players are treated and the poor forward planning. A supposed misunderstanding or miscommunication that prevents Bravo from being selected is unforgivable in this age of technology.
It irked me to see TT fumble against Guyana while Pooran and Bravo were playing cricket in TT.
Jamal Shabazz is a dumb ass.he was never going to beat Canada or seriously threaten their goal. Why make the score look worse than it was. If we played with 14 we may not get a organized attack, what makes you think Shabazz will get a win down 3-1 with 10. When I putting down the coach, prefer to keep it real. My only quarrel with the man is, he not aware of football outside the nation.
You losing 3-1 facing certain elimination and you are not committing numbers forward. No press, no support in forward positions, no commitment to the attack.
Absolutely ridiculous.
Don't totally agree with that.
Costa Rica could have said the same thing, but look at how they responded and what it did to Haiti. We needed to play for 1 goal at a time. I'm not saying attack with reckless abandon, but we had some nice spots where we could have took a chance and we never did. We resigned from early to not "losing bad". That's coward, and taught our players that they are indeed inferior. I don't like that approach.
We've been surrendering like this for decades and now it seems to be who we are. This is why at 1-1 we wilt. We show no fight or mental fortitude to fight back especially when we're leading and give up goals.
"Saving face" needs to not be part of who we are.
Any decent honorable leader who respects his reputation would resign, but despots never take responsibility for their failures and only cling to power in their narcissism!
DJW don't even have the respect for T&T football to step down knowing the major regression that continue to happen from youth to senior, male to female in T&T football under his tenure as Prez
Glad for him. Real glad. But help me clarify something here. But isn't this a violation of NCAA rules?It is not a violation to sign a professional contract. Now that he is signed he will just give up his scholarship, pay his own way through school and cannot run for Alabama. There is only a violation if he signs and then represents Crimson Tide, then it's the University of Alabama's problem.
Before thinking about 2022, we have the CFU, Gold Cup, PanAM and Olympics. Let's see if we could go to the finals of one of this competition. If we can't ..... what 2022 we talking about?
Can Sando and others who are unaware please note that his name is Jereem Richards and not Jareem Richards.
I think Jereem has been touted as the best performing Caribbean althele at the London World Championships.
I am sure Jareem not toting feelings about his name being misspelt like you. Doh worry everything will be ok
.
Who told you that I am toting feelings about anything? I simply decided to help you out.
It seems that like the immature person you are you are obviously toting feeling about being corrected.
If you were a grown-up you would have just said thank you and moved along so it is obvious that no one else is toting feeling about being corrected but yourself.
PS:
You can continue to misspell Jereem's name if you wish which only proves my point that you are toting feeling about being corrected. Maybe one day you will grow-up? But I suspect we would actually see Watson Duke swim from Tobago to Trinidad before then!
We eh play no opposition of consequence yet. Tempered celebration.Exactly! We always get excited against these poor unprepared teams then get our behinds kicked by decent opposition. Case in point: Our Under 15 get beaten by Jamaica 8-1 and allows 23 goals in 3 matches against CONCACAF opposition. Nuff said!
As 2017 come to an end my opinion is a mixed one. Happy and sale the 4x400 men relay team and happy for Jareem Richards progress. BUT at the same time we are witnessing the big decline in times and competitiveness from some of our top athletes. Jehue Gordon had no impact this year (Third year straight now). Keshorn had a disappointing season and Ahye was mediocre all season.
