Warner: I will leave no stone unturned for 2010.
By: Shaun Fuentes (TTFF).

TTFF Special Advisor Jack Warner is once again insisting that he will “leave no stone unturned” in his efforts to assist this country in its attempt to qualify for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.

Warner made comments to this effect as he sowed up the new deal with local football darling Russell Latapy to join the T&T Senior Team Technical Staff and the Federation as Assistant Coach.

As he looked ahead to 2009, Warner emphasized the importance of T&T’s qualification for South Africa.

“I will leave no stone unturned. The biggest hurdle I will face is a lack of funding and I have to bear that burden. But I promise you that even that I will have to overcome,” Warner told TTFF Media.

“I think that we have to prove to the world that our qualifying in 2006 was not by accident.  Secondly we in a sense have a historical right to be in South Africa. In a real sense we have some historical roots in that continent and it’s only fair that if this is the first World Cup there in a hundred years and who knows when else there will be a World Cup there… then we should be there.”

“Russell is capable of doing excellent work at this level. He knows he will be judged at what he does. I told him once he performs well then we can see him as a future role for him head coach of Trinidad and Tobago and he was very happy about that.  This must be looked as a stepping stone … a kind of apprenticeship for the ultimate which is the head coach position. We have had Beenhakker, Maturana and  Rijsbergen and if the time is coming soon when we will have one of our own… then so be it and I am very happy about this,” Warner added.

“Football is his life and therefore if he sees the need to assist other national teams from time to time then I am quite sure he will.”

“I think what has been revealed is the fact that Latas’ objective and mine were in sync. He had a strong desire to come on board as quickly as possible and  I had a similar desire in terms of what Mr (Oliver) Camps had asked me to do to get this thing settled. I want to say that because our objectives were in sync and our desires were the same it didn’t take too long for us to close the gap on our differences wherever they existed.

“We spoke at length on the team and I saw a very mature Latapy… a different Latapy. I saw a technician at work. He was able to identify some of the problems that are still bedeviling the team which he will addressed. He was given every belief that his role would not be cosmetic …that he will have a very authoritative role in the team and that all levels there will be consultations and collaborations. Therefore having been given that assurance he left very happy and in fact so did I,” Warner concluded.

Warner revealed some of the plans for the Team’s preparations.

“The national team will be leaving in two weeks for Argentina where they will have an extensive training camp where they will also play against a couple top rated clubs before heading to El Salvador. We are also in the discussions stage for matches against Nigeria and Portugal. We are not yet settled on them but we are in discussions and I am hopeful that it will come through,” Warner said.

Latapy: I will play if I have to.

Russell Latapy says he’s committed to doing whatever is necessary to take Trinidad and Tobago to a recognized level in world football even if it means having to wear the number 10 shirt on the pitch to get to South Africa.

Latapy was speaking as he completed final discussions with the TTFF on Monday prior to his flight back to Scotland. He is expected back in Trinidad in early January to take up his duties as Assistant Coach.

“If it means I have to play too along with my role as the assistant coach… then I will do it and whatever is necessary to help the team attain the success we are all trying to achieve,” Latapy  told TTFF Media.

“My honest opinion is that we have underachieved. I think we have a lot of talent there and we can obviously do a lot better than the results have shown lately. I think it’s not difficult things that we need to do to get an improvement. It’s the understanding of  the game, players understanding their roles and organization. I believe if we can get these things right it will take our performance up a level.

So I’m actually looking forward to working with some of these young players. Watching them having come back for the last three games it’s hard to correct some of their mistakes in a short space of time. But  correcting these mistakes is getting them to understand why they are making these mistakes. I think if I work with them from a day to day basis then I can help them understand that which will improve them as players and all together the performance of the team,” Latapy added.

What allyuh think about this statement here ?

[jai john]

As usual Fuentes has tried to cover up what Jack really said ...you know if you give Jack talk time he does speak de truth ....de man tried to cover up real bad when he realised that he said "I " then quickly added " that is Mr camps and I " yeah right !!! Fuentes must have missed this again i guess ...everyone knows camps eh have no say in dis one man organisation so who jACK AND HIS PAID employeee trying to fool ?We done know is Jack who sailing de ship ...so why he still trying to make we feel dat camps know even what a ship looks like ?
Jack do yuh ting brother ..... make all de decisions etc. but doh call poor innocent camps as part of any decision making process nah please !
Molve all de stones you want ...I guarantee you wont find any on  Camps !

Don't know about allyuh, but I feel there is something a little unethical about the President of Concacaf to be so publicly biased to one of its constituents.

I don't think a U.S. pres of Concacaf continually mouthing off about how he will do anything to get the US to a World Cup would sit so well. Or Mexican, or any other Concacaf country for that matter. Does Blatter talk about Switzerland like this?

And he continually talks about T&T like everyone is of African descent. I guess he'd say the same if the WC was in India? England? Syria? China?...where else

Didn't the government just pay some millions of dollars to or on behalf of the TTFF? This man real sickening boy. I hate beggars, people who just always want and want, do nothing and hands always out. It really ridiculous.

Guys back home call the radio station and everyday and highlight JW theiving ways please nah.

The poster who had some money to do a full page ad, can't we take this route. I find we does talk and talk and talk about how we fed up and that's it............. talk. Latapy here now so every thing okay, no it's not everything is still useless. Be big men and women and call a spade a spade. We going to SA will not help us. We will go party, party, party, play and come home. JW will tseal all the money and we rinse and repeat for 2014.
I will say it now, if by the grace og God we go SA, it will be nothing like Germany, we will be in for the shock of we life.

Ah real vex how men does just roll over and take it when they get their favorite item on the menu. At least play had to get after you got got.

When we go SVG it cost us about $5 mil.

It's not our fault, JW want to foot all the bills so that any income go straight to his pocket. Why should I worry about cost when we don't know actual cost?

[Weh-it-is]

Ah wonder how de columbian feeling about all this.
