WHICH IS INACCURATE, SH IS NOT A FOREIGN COACH, OR TRINIDAD IS NOT A XENOPHOBIC SOCIETY??
It's inaccurate to suggest that Steve Hart has lived out of the country for the past 30 years or that he's been so disconnected from the local scene that "stephen hart is as foreign as yuh could get, or that "it's safe to say that he's ah transplanted canadian." That's nonsense talk.
Breds you acting like me and SH is friends, i could only go by what i've read of the man and it states that the man ride out in the early eighties which would make it 30 or damn close to 30 yrs he's left T&T, and that he studied his craft in canada and got his certification there, then he coach yute and senior level plus on the club scene in canada, so that would tell me that the man was based in canada for ah minute.
my point is whether SH lived in canada or not( and most ppl wouldn't know that) if it came down to terry fenwick and SH the local fraternity would chose SH unanimously based on the fact that he's ah trini , as opposed to fenwick who spend the last 15 yrs or so in trini living and coaching, they would still see him as a foreigner and would cause ah stink!
i remember growing up as ah lil fella there were quite ah few elderly ppl in the neighborhood whom i used to help out around the place on weekends. tanty olga, uncle freddy, ms macy, ms james and mr silas, and all these ppl were from the islands, and even though these old old old folks had children and grand children born and bred in trinidad, the ppl in the neighborhood still maligned them as foreigners for the slightest of infractions.
now this is what does get me livid about trinis, dey doh care if they going to hell, just as long as it's ah trini taking them there, they alright wid that! and this is the mentality of alvin, fazeer, andre baptitse and most the football community. that's my point.
