Question for the Moderators....Time to boycott T&T Football!!

[PIMP]

I boycotting!!!!

but we need flex and touches to go to give us a match report

[Coop's]

When we say boycott T&T Football what do we mean?boycott Football but we still want to know all what going on with Football,if we boycotting Football just don't support no level of Football in the country,the thing is the TTFF have some role to play in all,if we hear about some big game or tournament we hideing and going and watch games,peeps eh boycotting no Football in the country is long time the poor man can't afford for he and his family to go and see a game that's why there are no crowds,we on here can talk because we can afford to go anywhere and see Football. One person saying they boycotting our Football will have no effect on Football.

fordy,
    I understand and share your frustration. However, a boycott/protest must have some sort of goal. There are all kinds of things that can be done

An editorial can be written and sent to all of the T&T media outlets
An ad can be created and run in the T&T daily newspapers and on radio
Videos can be created and uploaded to Youtube and sent to media outlets
A Facebook Group/Page/Cause/Petition can be created
Signatures can be collected
Billboards can be created
A placard protest can be held outside the TTFF, and continued at all national team games

De question is, what do you really want to achieve? Do you want change, or do you want to agitate, or both? If there is no commitment, then it would not be effective. If you do not have people on the ground in T&T participating, then it would not be effective. Basically, if a protest/boycott is not thought out, it would be easily dismissed, unless yup just want tuh cause ah scene.

Doh get tie up. Is only ah few people who really care what going on. Most people does jes respond tuh if we win or lorse ah game. So part of any effective protest/boycott in T&T football is educating de masses.

Tallman yuh talk real sense there, that's why I suggested we solicit the support of the general public. As far as my motive, I want change. I'm not wanting to do this just to stir stuff up. TTFF needs an entire overall, from President come down. This Digicel tournament isn't entirely Latas fault! When GM collapse, they didnt fire the Managers...they got rid of the CEO and banished the board of directors because of inept leadership! That's what accountability is about! Our football in the toilet since 2006...and even before that...and the same people running the show for 30 plus years now! As I said I'm prepared to do whatever I have to from my end...financially and otherwise! Someone made a good point earlier talking about finding investors....all well and good but I think the first course of action needs to be a unified campaign of supporters.....like us on this board as a starting point...to show enough is enough! Total boycott of everything TTFF and its sponsors!

Correk, I believe most of us fans recognize and accept this, the methodology of achieving this is what is seemingly unattainable
