Thread for the T&T v Jamaica Game (07-Jun-2008).

[jamaica2099]

You sounding like a typical "waggonist" there. You are not neccesarily paying to see the opposition, you are paying to see your national team play.
Jamaica had back to back crowds in excess of 20K for recent games agaianst Guatemala and El Salvador (played 3 days apart)...average attendance fee was US$45, which is close to what you paid to see England recently. The recent T&T Jamaica game pulled in 25K fans to the office.

Whey sar...so is excess of 20K pay US$ 45 to see two shit side. Alyuh real hard up across there. Burrell Robbing alyuh blind......... For nearly the same price we see Beckham and Gerrard.

$US45 to see Carlos Ruiz RF.

You wish you had even 10K turn up for a T&T match compared to the 2500 you and other Trinis point out after every match.
And talk about being robbed. Jack Warner let you each dish out $45 to watch two foreigners and their team (Beckam & Gerrard) instead of your own countrymen whom it seems were place on the back bench. A team that did not even qualify for Europe's major tournament. Talk about delusions of granduer.
We Jamaicans are proud of our team and willing to pay that price to see our Reggae Boyz. And the money goes into our football programme.
Thus the big crowd turnout.

More power to you. I personally admire you guys for that.
Now after the game will you please run back to wherever you were hiding for the last month or so?

3-0 for england. watched teh game. The English looked to be uncomfortable playing in the tropical conditions. I think they were more thinking of hitting the beach than extending themselves agaianst T&T. They made 7 chnages in teh secnd half.

Would love to have them in the Office. I am sure we would have been able to give them a better game.

What does Reggae Fan base that on? the six England give them the last time they played??

No, $45 to see Ricardo Fuller, Marlong King etc. By the way, Jamaica leading St. Vincent as I type this...roughly 12K fans in th office for this low-key game. Ticket prices for this game have been slashed in half...roughly US$18 for the average ticket.

[dcs]

Geez why Marvin Lee...it too small for JA....unless we going straight back to pre-england attendance in which case fine.
They say when tickets going on sale cuz I eh know if it will be like before with no line to buy tickets.

Waiting for this game since that last draw....this should be good.

Who starting at right back for this game...recurring question.  Guess it should be Smith.

I think Smith should get the nod over Cupid...
On another note JA beating SVG is not really dat serious..we recently beat Grenada and Barbados with a weaker team than what we have now..and not many people will disagree that we will beat SVG with that same team

This STVG team is the weakest team jamaica has played in a long time. Total waste of time in my estimation.  I guess this is good prep for teh wek Bahamas wo we will be facing next week

game at the Marvin lee stadium from 6

Did anyone hear the reason for moving the game?

If I heard correctly, the Jamaican authorities complained
about the cricket pitch, and the uneveness of the QPO.

Wait, this is the same people who have a field covered
with timari, more than D Savannah, if dat is possible.

One can only presume, fete match have to play on
fete match field. If this was a real game, it would have
been in the Hasely.

[weary1969]

Fete match especially since Pancho say he like HC

The pitch at the office was relayed a couple years ago. Judging on what I saw of the QPO field in the game you last played there vs Guadeloupe, that field is not suitable for international football. The notion of "fete match" is not something that serious football federations are aware of. World cup Qualifiers are less than 2 weeks away

I can't remember any game against JA being taken lightly.

I eh know when next we playing in them stadia with this rental agreement thing up in the air.  Bermuda game scheduled to be there ent?  Well this JA game done get shift...waiting to see what play out venue wise for the WCQs

[weary1969]

Doh let TTT confuse all yuh WCQ in HC he just have 2 pay 4 it now accordin 2 YB he does pay 4 everyting so y not 4 HC

[Bianconeri]

hadda admit that the Oval really aint no field for football right now with that cricket pitch
d rest of the field SWEEEETTTT!!!
have the privilege of trainin on it. ya could jus run on d outside of the pitch of course...
but i jus benning that i go hadda pay now rather than get in free!

sorry but there is no way i can and will fork out that kinda money for a game unless is a side like England
nothing about not supporting ma side cause i was there for every home WCQ except the last one unfortunately.

but the kinda prices we were paying, and to now pay $200 - $400 for a ticket??
and as much as i am a football fanatic, it real tough to roll out there from half 12 yes...
big up to those who could manage that one on a regular. Cause i cah see maself paying that kinda money to get seats behind d goal again.

Hope it show on TV! lol

i actually feeling that side...

you know what.

I would actually give Cupid another start in this game just to make a statement that I not pelting him under the bus.

the youngster need all the support he could get.

[triniwings]

Breds...I am very certain that Cupid would rise and keep that 'Right Back' position for himself.

He have wat it takes.  Jus need to work with him on his positioning.....especially with balls over the top and diagonal balls.

He is extremely good going forward and recovers well.....the positioning is something he will work on and make the adjustments.  He was exposed by a Primiership all-star team after all.  Remember it was his overlapping and cross that created Telesford's goal against Jamaica.

That being said, Kareem Smith does not offer much going forward but is simple,effective and solid at the position.  Time for him to get an extended run to see who is really better.

[weary1969]

I neva agree wit playin 1 striker as 4 d support 4 Cupid is counseling he need I could organize dat. D time for proppin up man long gone.
