So you telling me Jabloteh and Joe Public does begg for money every year, begg who ? and they dont pay their players ?
W Connection is a business, but nothing wrong if they make money on players they should just treat them better and more fair. Them Brazilians getting real dollas compare to the locals and some of the locals are even better than them.
which locals are better than them?
Man I agree that teams should have a lot more respect for the players who trying to build the league, but at the end of the day.....
Businessmen always think about the bottom line...dollars and cents. Like I mentioned before, it takes PLENTY balls...not footballs eh...testicular fortitude...and money to jump in that PFL. Because yuh always running at a loss unless yuh sell players. There is little marketing of the league, so returns from there is scraps, forget about the prize money...that is just for beers when the season done.
So fellas we have to be careful when we cast aspersions on the CEO's of the PFL teams. Particularly when we trinis like to jump to conclusions after listening to one side of the story...and everybody like to tell their own side of the story to get the crowd sympathy.
I remember when the PFL now start EVERYBODY wanted to see the Brazilians...just because dem is Brazilians and man feel they would light up the league with samba. Even so it was a damn good promotional boost for Connection. Also big money had to pass to entice them to come to T&T too (although we know the situation with players in Brazil), so if they get a lil more change doh be a player hater nah. I hear men say Beckham only went REAL to sell shirts...true or not
but he getting real paper either way, whether was a football decision or a business one.
Yuh know how businessmen always calculating risks...so men would think twice before taking a chance on a young player with 'potential'....they would want to make sure they bases covered.
Then again I agree...sometimes a youth man does want a start from a fairy godfather to realise he true worth.
