if allya, who saying that Mr Yorke has retired many times before, would do some RESEARCH just on this football forum alone, you will understand that the TnT players have had to deal with alot of unnecessary hurdles, limbo bars and other obstacles that the people in the TTFF have been constantly been putting in front of our players for years. I sure Dreamer has provided HALF of what allya need to know about. Check some of his threads.
Do some research please and
Thanks to ALL.

This fella is the only strike that ever put me on my As#$% when I played for soul city and he was playing for Phoenix. I respect that youth. Is amazing to see how much of a leader he has become. I know you will lead Sunderland to promotion. Roy Kean knew what he was doing when he signed you. He knows what you bring on the field and in the locker room. A true leader at best. I was really hoping that we would see you one more time in the goal cup but, what ever you decide to do is ok with all of us. Thanks for making Tobago and Trinidad proud. Good luck "Do flair".

Ah man got to do what a man got to do, his international ambitions have been achieved and i believe his club ambitons now by far out weigh any ambitions the national football team could have let's allow him to end his club career on a high in the epl.

T & T's loss is Sunderland's gain as I was worried about Yorkie missing important games for Sunderland, imho he has been nothing short of magnificent this season, he started slowly and struggled to come to terms with the Championship but he is God in a Sunderland shirt now

He is the coolest man alive

hey cartman...god is russell latapy....and he wears a falkirk shirt....good luck to sunderland...we are all praying for you all...cheers

Yorke is by far the most intelligent and composed midfielder dat we was depending on for de gold cup.............right now meh heart still shattered because ah cyah see who could really fill his shoes......ah mean, Denzil developing a similar style, but that experience and respect is ah key factor...........(denzil, Autis, Harddest, Birchall,) tell me who go be de best 2 for dat central position now.....anyway....big up Yorkie, you is world class........and we goh see how de pendulum swing

Lawd..........oh..........Lawd..............Lawd.........ah cayr take it.....

First TTFA suspends we football activity and then Dwight retire!....

Dwight thanks bredda, I was a Man U fan since I was a boy, and when you join dem, it was a youth's dream to see one ah we own repping meh team.

Big up and thanks for all you did to put TnT football on de map and to cement our place in Football History. You are truly a great!

(a bass ale for yuh)

I vote for Stern John to captain we. I know man go say I lorse meh mind or I drinking too much but, from all de shite he does take on an off de field from TnT. He is one ah de only man capable of bearing with de federation and de fans.

It will be good to see SJ lead the team in his final days too

Brownsugar · « **Reply #52 on:** March 08, 2007, 05:42:57 PM »

Ok now dat ah compose mih self lil bit,

Dwight you are responsible for some of my most favourite memories of Intercol football at Signal Hill. That time in de 80's, right around de heady times of the Strike Squad, make mih fall in love wid de game....(ah didn't exactly come out mih mudder belly loving de game).

Aaaahhh....ah seeing it now in my mind's eye like it was yesterday.....and when yuh take off for jolly old England.....and dey announce in school dat we could see yuh mashing up nets on de TV....de WHOLE AH TOBAGO was just so proud.....

*sniff, sniff* ah getting sentimental again.....

Good luck in every thing you do from here on in......

I agree with you 100% but i honestly feel if we footbal get sorted out he will come back

PATRIOT · « **Reply #55 on:** March 08, 2007, 06:03:34 PM »

Dwight, you helped make one of my greatest dreams come true - Seeing Trinidad and Tobago make it to the World Cup. For this ALONE, I will FOREVER be grateful!!! You played like a TRUE Warrior, and led from in front!! I'd hoped that you would have stayed a bit longer because we (T&T) STILL have to (1) Score our first WC Goal and (2) WIN our first WC game, but THANK YOU for the memories and Best wishes to you in all your future endeavours!!!!

Papachunks · « **Reply #58 on:** March 08, 2007, 06:29:32 PM »

Much thanks to Yorkie....i wouldnt be surprised if he makes another appearance down the road. If latas could, dwight might well do so, and he fitter than the magician. But for real, with both of them gone, with them a whole era.

As for a new captain. I like dawg or lawrence. But i dont feel john can carry a team, though i wouldnt mind him trying, i could be well wrong, and edwards doesnt seem to wield authority. Let dawg call on god to help we team now.

For now it lookin like theobald go have to carry yorke position. I have mixed emotions about dat, but wish him de best.

c'mon yorke , don't do this to us !

when the f@^k will this entire football mess be resolved?
its around 20 years i seeing you play-at least ever since i know our national team.
you should at least play in the gold cup, then maybe decide whether to come with us to south africa!
i do see him coming back if we strugglin in the 2010 qualifiers though ..........
