Tired of T&T's low standards. Comfortable with mediocrity. Excuses at every turn.
Let me tell allyuh right now. T&T could forget about qualifying for any world cup as long as they continue to operate like a pick up, fet match squad.

What in the world is Eve doing leading T&T Senior men's team? Are we even halfway serious?

Haynes disappointed bigtime. I heard so much about him and was excited he was called in to lead our U20s. But listening to his press conferences, it was clear that he lacks what it takes to be a winner. Nice guy? Sure. Winner? Hit and miss.

Eve simply eh ready.

Meh tongue bleeding from biting it soooo long. There got it out.

Bless up.

Haynes seems to me to be naive. He didn't see Canada play before but thought that somehow was an advantage.

All this talk about most talented in 10 years actually highlights how weak T&T teams have been in a while.

Haynes comes across as not driven enough to get the best out of his players. Seems too concerned with being "Nice."

Of course I hope we win against Canada and continue to grow, but what reason do I have for optimism?

All the best

Yeah I thought he looked good coming back from injury. He handled himself pretty good against quality EPL opposition. On another day he doesn't rush his shot and scores that first one.

Eve is a Big Coward. Wrong man at the helm. And I was one who was glad he got a chance in the interim.

Shaw had the perfect opportunity to square one back for an advancing teammate. He decided to try and beat his man. Steupes.
Are these guys for real?

Levi trying his best out there.

Alvin Jones is more of a forward or Defensive mid at best.

Eve took responsibility for the loss. But you don’t get the feeling that he really accept that he:

1) Crippled the team by putting the fear of the “big names” in his players. He himself lacked belief that T&T could stand toe-to-toe with that Jamaican team. And when your leader lacks that belief, you can’t mask it. It will come out in your speech. “They have Antonio so & so and we have who we have.” Something like that he said to them.

2) Put out too many inexperienced players to start a game against a team admittedly stronger that your own. Madness. Bringing them on to run at them in the latter stages of the game & to give your older, more experienced legs a rest would have made more sense.

When we learn to believe in ourselves, we will stop playing into the hands of beatable opponents. Period!

Pull Stones, I appreciate your observations and analysis.

I also saw Hackshaw reading the game and putting in a good shift.

Lots of misunderstanding in the backline. I thought we had our defense in order. I was disappointed.

Yeah Seeker,
Well deserved draw in the end!
Hard to say which team was superior.
I thought Jamaica looked more in control. Should have won that match.
But still neither side are so far ahead of us that we can't play a tactical match and cause lots of trouble with our front line and defense.
Jamaica frontline are solid but lacking sharpness. Don't know how Bailey throw-way that penalty & follow-up.
Hoping T&T's extra time in Phila solidified chemistry, gameplan execution, and discipline.

Leave on good terms and don't burn ur bridges. Don't set a precedent for black managers to be seen as opportunists.
The standard is not d same as in England. Apple and oranges  really.
Jah bless rastafari

What precedent? Black managers will always be far and few in between. When it comes to picking manager/coach, it is most of the time the owners prerogative. We may disagree with his tone. But he spoke his mind. But it has to be something that triggered him off. Maybe he was demanding effort by the players, which they were not able respond too. The only thing I see in this case, is that the shoe is on the other foot. Let's see if he can adjust to that.

Well said Deeks. When I read this account, I thought: Yorke saw his White managers take that strong stance for excellence and spoke to the group in a way that they accepted. He may have thought that he could do the same and expect his white employers to accept a black man talking to all his players "Black and white" the same. Not so the higher you go up in the corporate world.
