Oliver Camps Thread

[King Deese]

Camps: TTFF not dependent on Warner.
By Ian Prescott (Express).

Oliver Camps, president of the Trinidad and Tobago Football Federation (TTFF), denies that the departure from football of Minister of Works Jack Warner, a former FIFA vice-president, has left his organisation totally defenceless.

However, Camps admits that local football has suffered since the loss of their special adviser and chief financier, who resigned from football's world governing body amidst a bribery scandal involving fellow FIFA executive member Mohamed bib Hammam.

"No. It's not true to say that we were totally dependent on Jack," a defiant Camps said yesterday. "But, Mr Warner did help us out greatly from time to time."

Camps was also asked why after many years of existence the TTFF does not have a home.

"Football is just like any of the other sports. Just like many of them we don't have a permanent home for football, and just like many other sports we have to book the stadium and such venues for matches.

"All the sporting organisations are suffering, not just football," Camps insisted. "We are just like any of the other sporting bodies who are now struggling to fund their programmes."

Camps said the TTFF has no choice but to try and raise funds. But, he said, it's not at easy as many think.

The challenge is to get corporate Trinidad and Tobago involved with the national team's programme.

"You know that local football doesn't generate funds," Camps declared. "To generate spectator interest, we have to bring in top teams to generate funds.

And usually after paying for these teams and paying the players and other expenses, most times we just break even. People think we make big money, but many times we just break even."

Are you kidding me?

20 years have come and gone. 20 years.

You narrow minded motherf*%ker.

You are so lucky to be living in a society of happy go lucky people. In the Middle East, they would stone you and your impish motherf&%king supporters to a slow and painful death. Make no mistake about it, you are not fooling those of us who can read between the lines.

Quick someone, throw some yeast around Camps when he's next asleep at the TTFF office desk to help him rise again!!

Who knows he might even be recruited by the UNC if he's successful in his bid to rise!! 

Some please pass Camps a walking stick & something to balance on! The man finally trying to rise from his desk and do something for the first time after all these years!!

One step at a time JC!
If/when Camps steps aside we could think of one of those guys stepping up to the plate and helping to give the TTFF transparency, accountability and a new fresh dynamic approach to marketing, etc!

Yuh right, this poll is similar to the TTFF elections in truth! Everyone does know beforehand that Camps going to win as he does go up unopposed and is only friends & family of Jack & Camps does vote anyway! Once a few brown envelopes pass them men happy, to hell with T&T football, even a clock that not working does be right twice a dayl!

Let us get serious. Do you think Camps will be influenced by what we say and what the poll reflects.
 Camps mantra is that I am here to serve TTFF and I will do it to the best of my ability= Let it not be said that I abandoned the ship at a critical juncture. Because of the perks of the job ,eg travelling all over the world Oliver aint giving up nothing. If you live in T&t a long time most of our leaders are immune to constructive criticism. Camps reminds me of the lady who went to a Cadet's passing out parade and the cadets were marching left right all 99 of them. Her son was marching right left and she went to the Commandant and said her son was the only one who got it right all the others were wrong.

I am well aware that Camps have no intention to resign hence this poll!

There is an option in the poll if you feel that Camps will continue in the job for life and will get the funds he wants for the 2014 WC campaign!

I am just trying to get a poll that gives us a true democratic reflection of what the general T&T football supporter thinks about Camps & the TTFF!

I hope you have voted as my target is a minimum of 100 voters before I send them the link!

Cheers 

[injunchile]

Thanks for the clarification- Good luck

That is why there is strong sentiment by some, including my self to boycott this campaign or encourage the locals to wise up and boycott the campaign..

[Trinitozbone]

As weak as Camps is, he is not dangerous! Groden is the hatchet man but maybe FIFA will give him his sentence soon! Others like Watson and others follow the lead , they are not leaders , just do the dirty work and stay in office! I am sorry but I can't think of anyone who could transform this culture of TTFF! Just another group who want to do the same thing! We in some deep crap! I voted anyway!
Camps should have stepped down a long time ago!
