Trinidad and Tobago should have no problem getting past their Caribbean neighbours or, so it will seem. The Soca Warriors are a talented bunch and are coached by a T&T-born specialist, Stephen Hart. However, they must proceed with vigilance as they don't normally stand up well against teams that are similar as far as being physical is concerned, at least not all the time.
As mentioned above, Guyana had taught us that lesson when they eliminated T&T from the 2014 FIFA Word Cup. Jamaica did the same in the 2014 Caribbean Cup finals. Most recently and still fresh on the minds of the players, Haiti sent them packing when they won 1-0 in a play-off match in Panama for an historic place at the 2016 Copa América Centenario.
Man need to go and apply for his passport.....then ask for help. Needs to prove that he is serious first.
S De Silva is better than the attacking midfielders S Heart is playing on the team only K Molino and N Deleon is better but he should not give up hope yet I don't expect S Heart to last I do expect us to get out of this weak group but in the final 6 he will struggle to win a game playing that crappy football and that would be the end of his stint.
Spoke to Ricarda and Skeene yesterday, they said DJW is upset with Maylee for speaking to Lasana about the situation and has given her one last chance.
Maylee is a leader and should not back down because people say so, she needs to stand up for the right thing.
Sam, have a valid point, we knew about this tournament a while now.
More to come.
Horner, Jack made some errors, you still drunk from Christmas or what. At least we know DJW is the president of the TTFA. We can point the finger at him. He is responsible for anything the association does. But you or your father , uncle whatever, used you FIFA privileges to hide under the name of special advisor. Created f----ing havoc and made the TTFA disfunctional. Used his power to bamboozled camps to be the president and he be the socalled special advisor. Make Camps signed on the dotted line and left him high and dry when the bills came due. Look Horner, f--k away with you and this bullshit. DJW may not turn out to be the president we want. He can be voted out next election. But for you to jump on his case and compare him to Jack is utter nonsense. Why the f--k you don't pay Rijsbergen. You throw Camps under the bus like a dog. You had the money. you spend it on UNC and then coming to say you go help in whichever way. Breds, blow to f--k away with your apologies for Jack.
Without picking sides or blaming anyone in particular, but what are the producers for organising games?
I would think.
1. Accumulate the money first (sign, sealed and delivered) which includes match fees, accommodation and airfare (etc). Of course, you have a projection cost because you may not know who is available to play us. So the figure could vary, but you have a figure to work with. (If you don't get the money then you work on plan B).
2. Find an opponent and date.
3. Call players for training. Get documents (visas, etc) if applicable- which most players especially the foreign based already have. You get them early so you have no discrepancies or surprises popping up later.
4. Announced the game to the public. GAME ON !!!
Simply as that, now, if you don't get the money or have it, you have a plan B in place and may have to scrap plan A but at least you would save yourself and the Association further embarrassment. I am really surprised by the latest event because I was expecting things to run a little more professional?
When news comes out on public domains like we are seeing now it only paints a bad image on the TTFA and it turns off possible sponsors and countries from wanting to play us.
Imagine, the USSF had to rescue our Women's team and save face for T&T. We sent a team to play the US and players haven't been paid for a few games? Now I understand the TTFA were new on the scene, so it would be hard to just place 100% blame on them as this game were so close to election and the transition should have been smoother. But still, you have to cover yourself to some extent.
Do you know how damaging these stuff can be.
I understand the FA have a mad house to clean up but why do things to worsen your reputation?
The TTFA announced a huge staff and Technical Committee members for the T&T Senior Women’s Team including; Dexter Skeene, Dr. Alvin Henderson, Bertille St. Clair, Errol Lovell, Jinelle James, Stuart Charles-Fevrier, Muhammad Isa, Richard Hood and managers Sharon O'Brien (?) and Ricarda Nelson, you mean all of this staff and still we are in this position?
Look at the way the Pro League is run, no one knows when and where is games and if there is a change in schedule or venue well in advance? What does that tell you? These same people is now working for the TTFA. Imagine I want to attend a game next week in T&T, how will I know where games are being played or who's playing? What kind of planning is that and there are no other outside tournaments in the past 2 months. In-fact, outside tournament (CFU) is already planned, so league games can be fixed better because we know in advance.
Again, not blaming anyone in particular because I don't know the full story, just thinking out loud who is responsible and what are the producers and function for everyone involved? Let's see if the TTFA will find it worthy in letting the public know?
As I mentioned to someone in the TTFA once, they have to keep things out in the open because when news comes out first (especially bad news) in other media it only makes things worse than it probably is, but you know everyone don't take advice and in T&T everybody know's everything. Protect your image.
Anyways, just my 2 cents.
How good is this player? Don't tell me he good because he playing overseas. Any videos of him playing? How is he performing for his club for the season thus far? Does he deserve an automatic spot in the T&T roster?

Andrew Mohammed (Defender/Midfielder) - Sport União Sintrense (Portugal)
I spoke to Jamaal a few days ago and he told me the players is still owed money from a game or two and DJW wants him to work for cheap.
More news to come.

Hmm alyah have talent oui ,I doh know if to laugh or cry , lol, .
S Hart is playing a outdated English brand of football that they play in Canada that did not work and is not going to work in T&T because Trinidad is were Latin America meets the Caribbean we need a #10 player to pull the strings the players he is picking cannot play that role Cummings could score goals but he lacks creativity T&T should hire a coach that would bring players like S De Silva and M W ling into squad.
Keron Cummings (AM) - A player who came along and won the hearts of many since he made his debut under former T&T coach and legend Russell Latapy. As former T&T coach Otto Pfister would say: “He has a million dollars in his legs.” Cummings has been on fire for his club and country, only 6-months ago he was literally unknown, today, T&T's newest secret weapon is famous, especially after helping conquered Mexico, twice. They know him very well. For the new 2015-16 Pro League season thus far, he has scored 7 for his club in all competitions and 3 for his country, all coming against Mexico.
