I was patiently waiting on somebody to start this thread but ah get tired. If it was started send me the link.

Is it me alone who wondering what that logo have to do with the Soca Warriors?
Okay we had a good fight but that logo does not represent the country. That coulda be any country.
This to me is a reflection of all the dotish decisions that going to be made in managing and marketing the team. Something real wrong if a set ah hard back trini see that and choose that to represent us.
I can tell you from now, if that is the logo they going and put on the merchandise I am boycotting.
Let dwight and the whole team open an account I will contribute there.

Right about now the knock offs on ebay looking nice.

I well say they would have had a logo competition for the best creation or something, or commission a design firm to create something relevant to the culture. Ah steel pan-shield with maybe ah hibiscus or humming bird kind of design on it.

It too cold and raw looking

1. A logo is supposed to be an icon that identifies with something, it is your brand symbol. That logo doh represent nothing about our team, our country, our culture, our people nor our style of play. It just represents the word "Warriors" which incidentally I never liked because nothing in our country's history or football depicts that we are warriors. We never had to fight for anything in we life. (SHIT LOGO). Ross advertising just rush someting based on their advertising style. Jack said in his speech that the team will be known as the people's team. If that is so then they should have had a logo competition. Nuff men on this site have real boss ideas.

As I said before SHIT LOGO

I won't be worrying about that logo, obviously we can all create our own logo and do what the hell we want. I done organising to get a black air-brushed jersey saying SocaWarriors.net in the back and designing my OWN logo in the front and it will cost me approx. $150 TT not too bad.

So let us all ignore them and make our own logo jerseys and put SocaWarriors.net at the back then we can plan limes and fetes here in T&T or wherever you are to easily distinguish ourselves from the mere mortal supporters and waggonisers. Simple. Done.

Soon as Christmas done, those in T&T should start linksing in fetes and thing with their jerseys and that go build real awareness and again we pulling real girls.

Keep life simple.

Now off to organise meh Germany loan...

Hi Mr. Sam, no one wanted to help me in this venture in T&T so I decided I will do my own thing. The last I heard was that FF was organising something in New York so you can message him. They were getting it printed last time I heard. If I can get one that will be great but I eh waiting for no one I spending meh own money making meh own jersey and this site getting advertised and big up for free. So don't get upset, just go to a place and make any kinda jusee you want and put SocaWarriors.net or whatever at the back, later on in Germany or in T&T for Carnival when I see that I will know that you are one of the forumites, it is a nice social thing, in this way we will all meet up and it will facilitate a quick and efficient means of liming in real and pulling women.

So go and take charge of your own jersey, rely on no one but yourself, God and the bank (for loan and thing).

See you T&T and/or Germany!

Where is your logo? Anyway, even though I have not seen it, this is a case when a pan makes sense.

Some fellaz think that a pan should be on the jersey, and I initially thought so too. However, the footballers already carrying soca, and in a way we should not burden them with a pan on the shirt.

Letter to the Trinidad Guardian

WHAT are we, T&T? Are we a warlike, mechanised country with a medieval history? Weâ€™re not?

Then why in heavenâ€™s name are we glorifying the violence that is our curse and representing the Soca Warriors with an armoured shield with sharpened blades sticking out the top?

Going to Germany looking like a mini panzer tank is like going to a fancy-dress party in Arabia as a sheik.

We are the smallest nation ever to qualify for these World Cup finals. Surely, we have to remain true to ourselves and be brilliant, creative, inventive, qualities that characterise the best of us and our football.

Qualification for the World Cup is worth millions of dollars in terms of exposure to our country.

Are we seriously going to spend this currency pretending to be a feeble imitation of a Marvel comic, just because the men of the TTFF and the Tourist Board got a testosterone surge?

The world will laugh at us! They will find us naive and amateur.

Iâ€™m begging those responsible to think again. The world can get cheap metallic bravado anywhere.

We are a unique, glamorous, enviable culture that has joy to offer the world. That is what the Soca Warriors should embrace.

That is what will introduce the world to our inimitable nation.

Your thoughts are too logical for the people running things in T&T my friend. In case, you're not sure. Guess work, cronyism and kickbacks run the day when it comes to business like this..

Someone suggested steelpan, I was thinking scarlet ibis or hummingbird myself.

Bottom line is it's not good enough..
