The fact that Sancho has chosen to join a political party that may not be returned to power,tells me he is a silly boy,why couldn't he wait and fraternize with the PNM,assuming they win.Maybe he knows something we don't,one thing though,KPB has acted proper by sacking anyone who has acted underhand,good for her.

People now starting to make the connection. I pointed this out about 8 months ago... the fact that SIS was the principal sponsor of both the PP and Central FC by itself is not an issue. What was problematic was his antagonistic stance towards the FA and the government's own convoluted role in that antagonism... to the extent that they contributed to the TTFA's problems. Then they turn around and pay these players... rather than give the money to the FA, directly pay the players... that is a huge issue.

A woman name Juliet just call in and make some real cogent points: "You as a young man with a degree, that degree comes with an implication of integrity. So when you see corruption, and you gone and stamp your seal of approval on that corruption, it says a lot about that young man."

Forget about the whole "degree means yuh have integrity" thing... we know that's not the case... but regardless, the ties to SIS, the clear corruption in this government, and you run in there grinning like you win de lotto... ~~Sambo~~ Sancho showing he real colors and he getting tear apart (he and Alonso) for aligning with this government. A number of callers talk about how it likely that the PP will put Sancho to stand against Warner... and that they could never vote for him because of what they now perceive as a lack of integrity on his part. He seriously miscalculate... no matter how FS and elan want to spin it.

The hosts of the show going too far by focusing on the own goal vs. Paraguay though.

Just like when yuh pardna hire he fadda and it had no conflict ah interest because he is a big goalkeeper coach. Daiz not nepotism, that smart decisions.

Me eh spinning nutten where you see that. I glad for Sancho. Full stop. I see absolutely nutten wrong. If he succeeds fair play, if he fails is he losing sleep not me.

It happens all around the world where ppl connected to a company walk away and take up a position where you can point to a conflict of interest.

How much work Halliburton get in Iraq and Afghanistan.

And Finally I doh tote feeling for man. Especially man I doh know. Hard luck they with the projection.

I sure I have a link somewhere to a newspaper article or two or three or four where Sancho well waste down this PM and Government definitely in the first two years of their reign.

elan the more you talk the bigger sycophant you revealing yuhself to be. First off Lincoln Phillips is a legend, both as a player and as a coach... so it's not like there was no merit to his hiring. If there was any nepotism it wasn't because my "pardna" as yuh put it hire him, but because Lincoln Phillips' pardna, Randy Waldrum hire him. Waldrum took the TTFA job for free in large part because of his relationship with LP, so even if yuh want to spin it that LP was unqualified for the position that is on the coach who picked his staff, not on the FA. Of course the nepotism talk is utter rubbish, but that's not surprising given the source.

this is something I wondered about why give it directly that's taxpayers money.
Elan I'm surprised at you. I thought you were a smarter thinker than that. This Government is corrupt. There are no ifs ands or buts. For him to align himself with them is a disgrace. When things were going well they didn't want him...now that things are bad he is welcomed with open arms.

MEP, not sure if this is the question you're asking... but they could have given it two ways, as a moral obligation to pay off the debt that the man who bought the election for them, arguably with money stolen from the FA... OR, simply as part of th regular disbursement to the FA as a sporting body. Is how many times the FA ask them for help with resolving the issue? There are ways to justify it either way you look. Giving it to the players directly... how could they ever justify that... if not on the same moral obligation grounds? Except this way they try to buy some PR by tugging on the heartstrings of the public. Same thing they did with the CFU payments... promise to pay the salaries, then don't pay it, wait for the TTFA to get blamed by Kenwyne and others, approve the money for payment, but instead of having the FA pay them, call a big pappyshow at the PM's residence so that the press and public could see Kamla handing over check.

Taking SIS money and being a member of this government is different story. If SIS say that is the only way to get the money then you tell them NO THANKS. So you know SIS is an agent of the government and they using you to be visible that bad enough but your club needs funds so you play along.

You agree to be the MOS and you will go after Jack. You do not think that the missing money will be found at Rienzi? Will you be allowed to connect the dots assuming that you get to the 1st dot?

Man gone in the jeps nest too... Ministry of Sports/ Lifesport and all that.

Arguably the most corrupt and deceitful administration that has ever governed this land and Sancho and Alfonso run in there with open arms.

The sad thing about it being their appointments being nothing more than attempts to distract the population from the very serious allegations of misconduct facing the AG. The first AG to be facing criminal charges.

Steups....You really allow yourself to be a pawn in this game bai....In this day and age? Cut ur locks too cause ur shaming us rastas.

It could be that at the moment Sancho has no political ambitions and simply intends to serve for a time as asked to.
As somebody pointed out before, joining this sinking ship so late in the term is political suicide.

Minister Sancho focuses on new venues.
T&T Express Reports.

In one of his first official meetings since being appointed Minister of Sport, Senator Brent Sancho reviewed plans yesterday morning for the opening of the three national venues for cycling, tennis and aquatics with executives of each of the respective National Governing Bodies (NGBs).

The meeting was also attended by outgoing Minister of Sport, Dr. Rupert Griffith. Each NGB has outlined a schedule of events to coincide with the opening of each mega facility. The events are designed to showcase the talent within the various disciplines, promote Trinidad and Tobago as a destination as well as market the modern facilities which will be accessible to elite athletes, local, regional and international.

According to a release from the Sports Company of Trinidad and Tobago (Sportt) Minister Sancho was pleased with the progress being made in each discipline and was careful to impress upon the executives the need to get value for money. He also was keen to learn about opportunities to secure investment from the private sector, for these events and beyond, so as to wean the NGBs off their heavy reliance on state funding.

Minister Sancho further stressed the need to increase participation in sports and improve the level of adjudication, officiating and use of timing and other technical systems so that future hosting of events may be driven by local expertise. Comprehensive training programmes in these areas will take place prior to opening of the facilities, the release stated.

Minister Sancho will conduct private site visits to each of the new national facilities over the weekend.
The National Cycling Velodrome in Couva and National Tennis Centre in Tacarigua are scheduled to be completed in June while the National Aquatics Centre, also in Couva, is due to come on stream in July/August.

Uh oh. Mistake number one. There have been some late payments to the contractors and I heard from good sources that the aquatic centre, which was originally due to be opened in May is not going to be opened before October November. Notice they pushed the may date back to August already. The non-payment wasn't on his watch, but by the same token, Griffith had little control over it either. Drop in oil prices threatening to stagnate progress on may projects right now. That is the ketch-ass for him, he coming in when economy is at an uncomfortable place, and all the talk already about disbursing funds on time could well be his undoing due to a back squeeze from Ministry of Finance.

Well beyond that, these facility projects too far along for him to really impact ($$$ woes aside); contracts already signed, funds supposedly budgeted & allocated, palms already greased and hand over is supposed to happen this year. He can't walk in there and cancel plans, alter budgets or even fire contractors. As regards these things he's the project manager making sure they delivered on time.

In the few months he has, he should really ensure that there are strong programs in place to take advantage of these facilities and encourage people to get involved in these sports. Not sure to what extent there were plans in place for this, but he can be the man to make sure it exists and is realistic. The facilities are a sunk cost and they are here, so the time to debate whether we should have built them is gone. Time to maximize what exists and put a structure in place so that they don't end up overgrown with trees and watermelons.

I just wonder,how many sporting personalities in TT would have refused the job as Minister of Sport,and as bad as I hear the UNC have been ,I suspect the PNM is no better at the moment,there seems to be quite some in-fighting in the party.The PNM don't appear to be the united cohesive force it once was,chances are they could be no better or could even be worse.You cannot help but give credit to KPB for some actions she has taken against some members of her party,she has acted with principle,something that is not known in politics.
My feelings about Sancho is,he thinks the UNC will be returned to power because,there is no doubt KPB and the UNC have done quite a bit to improve the lives of many,it is visible.If the UNC wins,Sancho will be the Minister of Sport,I expect he will get regular cuss,just like JW got when he was a UNC government Minister.
