Some men in awe before whistle blow...is quite shocking for me to see some of de old timers from de old forum carrying on in dis way but everybody have their opinion and ah have to reespect dat.  Ah jes hope de players eh thinking negative.  Things coulda be worse, Group C, E and F would have been real pressure.

Last world cup S. Korea played Italy, and when Ahn scored for his team, his Italian team sacked him
Do you think it can happen here? Or would your players be affected by that?

Aye redbelt! i eh expect to see u back
on yuh question i eh know yes..I dont think that wud happen

[JDB]

In both cases that I know of that this has happend there were extreme circumstances.

The Italians felt that they were cheated against Korea and the Owner of a small club fired him tempestuously. English clubs are not managed that way.

When VIlla sold Alpay it was becasue he went apeshit on the field against England, while playing for Turkey. He had some really bad things to say and again the fans over-reacted and Villa sold him fast.

So barring a controversial win or our players acting out of order, which they don't, we have nothing to worry about.


When we pull they BBB gyul in Germany they might have a problem with the Trini fans however.

The English are so arrogant they are already discussing on TV just who they will be playing in the final...   

They have written T&T off already, before the game has kicked off.  The best situation you could possibly be in - they're completely discounting you to worry about Sweden.

Kick their arses, guys.  The whole of Scotland is fully behind T&T already, we know what it's like to be treated with contempt by the English.

Put them out first round.

Before we do we business on the field, we gotta be ready for some well placed distractions, especially if we do well in our warm ups. Remember the article that English newspaper do on the 98 Jamaican Team on how the English based players living much better than some of the Jamaican based players. That article nearly mash up the Jamaicans before the world cup. Now that we have drawn England be prepared for some real pressure from the british press who are very good at divide and conquer.

Well i dont think that a story like that wud cause too much trouble for our team since almost the whole side makes their living abroad anyway! But let them talk they talk...

[Rymizx]

As you talk about distractions one or two trini smallie streakers on d field go get Beckam forgetting about he spice girl...

[Redbelt]

Aye redbelt! i eh expect to see u back

I was just busy

I told you I would support Trini if you win & I'm a man of my word.
I'm too broke to go and cheer for you but I will watch all the matches!

This board has already seen the posts after Scotland beat T&T 4 - 1. They also know what it's like to be treated with contempt by the Scots 

A question for you Black Saltire: Would you prefer T&T to qualify from their group, not necessarily  beating England or T&T to stop England going through but not qualifying themselves?
