I've been following the reports and views of some of our experts on Football on this forum and it amazes me how people think sometimes,is either we don't know or we does forget.
I can't believe i'm hearing the kind of things being said here about the colleges league,mind you i've never played in that league but had brothers that did and can tell you that league brings so much joy to people across the country,most of our players past or present weather we want to say the league produce them or not came from there,a lot of guys who did not do well academically and making their living through Football came from that league.
If we look at the history of our Footall this league has always been the nursery for Youth Football in the country,i can't agree with banning players from playing in the league,is only three months or so what effect will that have on what Anton wants to do,i remember it had a time the association had a bann on us playing Minor league Football,we still used to take the chance and play because that was what made us who we were,until they gave up.
It's an honour for players to represent their school why deprive them of that,we done have a Pro league that nobody watches now they want to stop the best players from playing in the Colleges league,i've always called for improving the quality of the Coaches in the league,Anton have to realize he alone can't do it,we always following somebody why can't we set our own standards,not because something work for Haiti it going to work for us,culturally we are different people,they have been doing their thing with these kids since they were 10 yrs.
I'm really tired of people putting down Football in T&T,it hurts especially when you know you were once a part of it,a sport we admired so much is struggleing today,is it because we are exposed to to foreign Football that we don't see ours as equivilant?it seems to like every other country supports their Football to the Max win/loose,when it's up or down,what's happening to us?our Football needs our support if it is to improve,everything is the Government,we went to the WC without them what's the problem?
Any how i going to stop here,but i'll still say stopping these guys from playing School Football will not make any difference.
