The US does play WC in different cities. Spain, Italy and Germany does do it to. Even Brazil does play in different cities. If our team was plenty good, it would not have matter where the game is played. Because our team so shakey we have no confidence in them. I am glad the Tobago got the game, but this was a vaille que vaille decision. All the the reasons people on this site mentioned for moving the game could be true. Only one man decision counts here.!!!

We know how to make a big deal about anything. It didn't matter where the match was scheduled, once it was at a venue different from the HCS people would have a problem. We are typically resistant to change here, so it doesn't suprise me that a change in venue is creating a fuss.

I think the game will be well supported whichever of the 5 stadia used. That argument is a weak one. The type of support will not vary significantly. So that too is a weak argument. For a group of players that play mainly in the UK and other parts of Europe I can hardly imagine playing in Tobago will be anything close to an away game or difficult to adjust to.

We are not so big a country that distance is prohibitive for the die hard spectators who can afford ticket prices to go. Tobago will cost more to attend simply because of the cost of the boat or plane to get there and for those who don't have the option of staying by a friend, the cost of accomodation.

All our home games, from 1st round to hex, are important and if we could not beat Bermuda in the HCS what makes it this all important venue for us to play a critical home game against a team we not accustomed to beating (home or away)?

I wonder what kinda response we would get from the forum if the next game is put at Mannie Ramjohn Stadium ? I hope the peeps say is a good move too...spread the football around the country.

If dey ent win they could put the next match in the savannah and all.

In fact if we lorse the next two games just have free admission for the rest of the campaign.

Jack should stick to football and nothing else that is important. He being Prime minister would be big joke on trini society. Thats like Don King being president of the United States of America. :

Not to sound ignorant...but if they selling the tickets online again, plenty Tobagonians will have internet access to book them or it will be a kinda circumstantial discrimination, thus forcing Jack to have a quota for Trinis and put the rest on sale at the stadium?

Nex ting it have rough seas alert and ferry cyah go place.

I have no problem with the game being staged in Tobago

EXCEPT

It's a WC Qualifier. It's a home game for us. How many games has THIS TEAM ever played at the DY Stadium? How many games at the DY Stadium have any of our current National team players played at the HCS?

Are there any plans to play any friendlies prior to the June 6th CR game so that players can get a feel?

Ehy EHy I have seen the brilliance and masterstroke by the TTFF of staging this game in Tobago.

They have realised the campaign is over and are helping the nation by hiding the cutarse that may transpire.

Only 7500 will see as opposed to 25,000.

Additionally, no TV feed or internet feed will be available and all we will get is a small paragraph in the papers the following day giving us the score and informing the public of the team's travel plans to Mexico.

In fact I woulda prefer not to see what happened vs the USA in the last match.

If yuh cyar baffle them with brilliance...blind them with bullshit.
