Minister Boynes holds emergency sessions -
with TTFF & World Cup players.
By FPATT


Minister of Sport and Youth Affairs, the Honorable Roger Boynes, today met with both the TTFF and members of the Trinidad and Tobago World Cup Football team, with a view to finding a speedy resolution to the current football impass. Minister Boynes first met with TTFF representatives at around 8:30 this morning, where the issue was discussed. He then met with members of the World Cup team at his request, founded upon the basis of his earlier meeting with the TTFF. The meeting between the Minister and the players took place at 1:30 pm this afternoon, at the Minister's Abercromby Street office.
At the meeting between the World Cup team members and Minister Boynes, the players once again reiterated their availability and desire to continue to represent Trinidad and Tobago. The players also stated that they were still baffled about their omission from the Gold Cup squad, because as far as they were informed, there was no existing FIFA law, that prevented them from playing for their country, as a result of their pending legal action against the local federation. The players also confirmed that up to this point, no legal action has been filed against the TTFF in any court of law. Minister Boynes is expected to meet again with both parties within the next 48 hours

Too little too late for the GC, but good to see something is being done and both sides are willing to talk..hope something positive comes out of it in time for our next international friendly, which should be sometime in July or August.  :beermug:

Big Up!

Perhaps the epitome of a Trinidadian is the child in the third row class with a dark skin and crinkly plaits who looks at you out of decidedly Chinese eyes and announces herself as Jacqueline Maharaj.- Merle Hodge
