A number of years ago, Dennis Law scored a goal for Manchester City, against Manchester United. That goal relegated Man U to what was then the second division.
The City fans went wild because they had consigned their rivals to the second div, but Law was devastated, so much so the manager took him off. Law knew what he had done but his instinct as a footballer was to score the goal. He is still regarded as one of the greatest ever Man United players and the Man United fans respect him for it, the City fans also respect him for not celebrating.

If England are 3-0 up and Birchill scores, I would expect him to celebrate. If he scores the only goal of the game in the last minute, I would expect him to acknowledge the fans and his fellow players and that is all. That is the way it should be.

Off course if we beat England we will be in a much better position and I believe we can beat them we just have to play with the same engergy as we did vs Sweden.

"WE BELIEVE" They made a monster on Saturday! Right now is fear we strike in England... they belly hurting them! We're like the Oscar Delahoya in this thing and England is the bad ass Mayorga... we'll put them on they back! Stay tuned!

I doh understand how allyuh men cah see the man point of view. I feeling it for him. I mean,. this is probably the best chance England have of winning the World Cup since 66. Imagine if his goal mean they end up finishing 3rd in the group? Up to 13 months ago the man was probably making plans with his "mates'' to go Germany and men hyped about how good England will do, and now he in a position to break the hearts of the entire nation, his family, friends..everybody...for God alone knows how many years again. That is a real hard situation to be in, especiually after all the euphoria of the draw die down and reality sink in.

very well said.

in fairness, I don't think this is the Enlish media trying to unsteady the TnT team, but this is more to do with the amount of interest there is here in Birchill and the TnT team.

Birchill is doing a video diary for the BBC and has gone from being a not very well known player in the lower leagues, to a household name.

Of course, we will claim that any success TnT has is down to your one Englishman

ENGLAND HAT ANGST VOR DEM NÃ„CHSTEN GEGNER TRINIDAD UND TOBAGO

ENGLAND IS AFRAID OF THEIR NEXT OPPONENT TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO

That was the heading in the German news today. As I reached home this is what I heard on the TV. then they showed an interview with Beckham with him saying that Trinidad and Tobago is a very good team and they are hoping for every one (showing Rooney on the screen) to be fit and healthy for that game.

HA HA HA FEAR US ENGLAND WE ARE THE SOCA WARRIORS

pioneertrini · « **Reply #108 on:** June 13, 2006, 09:28:50 AM »

Its just a sign of respect. Remember when Kevin Phillips scored against Sunderland for Villa. He did not celebrate because of what Sunderland had done for him and meant to him for so many years. Of course he was happy to score but he wouldnt rub it in the fans faces.

Some Clarification from his blog:

However, I've been quoted in some newspapers as saying that if I score against England I won't celebrate. What I meant by that is that I won't go over-the-top. I can't say I'm definitely not going to celebrate - you don't know what you'll do if it happens and obviously if I score I will celebrate somehow - but I was saying that I won't disrespect the country that I've grown up in and supported all my life.

In contrast to England, there's absolute no pressure on us on Thursday - we're 1000/1 underdogs to win the World Cup and everyone expects us to get thrashed in every game. In some ways it is brilliant for us, and I think we showed a few people were not just here to make up the numbers. However, I also think people understand how friendly the people from Trinidad are and having seen we're not an aggressive country we're hoping we'll become everyone's second-favourite team.

This article was in our newspaper on 20th may 2006 long before the world cup

"CHRIS BIRCHALL has banned himself from celebrating should he stun England and score for Trindad & Tobago.
The Stafford-born midfielder, 22, is the first Port Vale player to appear in the world Cup finals.
Birchall faces a midfield showdown with Steveb Gerrard and Frank Lampard in Nurenberg on June 15. But he has vowed not to gloat if he spoils Sven Goran Eriksson's farewell party.
Birchall, who qualifies for the Caribbean minnows though his Tindad-born mother, said: "If i score I won't celebrate. I respect England - it's the country where i'm from and I'm very proud about that."

none of us know what he will do if he scores maybe hell decide but ill tell you sumat if he does score and doesnt celebrate he is no less a trini than dwight yourke u have got to realise england is his country and he is a respectable man he will do what he wants to all you got do is be behing him 110% like he is for you
