Bad talk jack warner all yuh want...but make it accurate.

Warner use his own money and the People's money to build stadia in T&T..De T&T Government were major sponsors of the stadia in T&T..dat is why dey named after OUR sporting heroes!

Man must make sure dey talk facts.

I am NOT a Jack fan..by any means but man jes talking from emotions.

Suspending yuh league fuh days to help Bahrain is traitor ting.

ANyway me eh care either way!

T&T still ahs to do dey job on de field!

Furthermore. Jack Warner ahs done more for Caribbean teams and CONCACAF dan anyone else before him!

Dat includes making Burell big man in CFU.

Burell is ah Jamaican and did not do enough in his tenure,,dat is NOT Jack's fault.

Jack is ah trini an he spend he money in T&T...Burell did not as yuh scrambling to repay him now ent?

T&T eh have to repay Jack ah penny!

Same thing me a say Warner got unuu fool so till. Surely Warner think that FIFA money is his money but he is not right. Trinidad use FIFA money and the Government money to build the stadiums.

Yuh don't remember how
Warner captured every contract on that project.

The amount of money him mek off a dat it is no wonder he is able to finance the whole of Trinidad's football. Stop been naive. Warner is the government for Trinidadian football.

It is strange that him pay all the expenses and then the government have to reimburse him. Mi see wey the government pay 100 and odd thousand dollars for the return flight from some trip and Warner ah talk bout him spent close to a million dollar getting the team there and should be reimbursed for that amount. Highway robbery if you ask me.

Warner is full of crap fi come call Jamaica and Jamaicans disloyal and ah try incite others against us.

But you know I think he is still vex because what happened to his good friend who operates like he does, so he tries to lash out against the people who he think was responsible instead of act like a real leader.

Yuh can try and compare Warner to Burrell on a football level only when Trinidad reaches the World Cup level. Yuh no see Warner get all his football cues from what Burrell has done.

If Barrell was the president of Concacaf Jamaica would be in every World Cup.

Warner is big idiot for trying to scapegoat Jamaica.

if Burell so smart how come Jack is he boss and giving him wuk at every turn?

Man yuh ah joke.

Warner run tings in FIFA MAfia!

The T&T governmnet..this one is at odds with Warner.

The last Governement built those stadia!

Me eh saying corruption eh pass, but it was no FIFA money.

How is FIFA money if Jack get contracts to build dem with T&T money?

T&T has always looked out for Jamaica!

From the 1970's to Hurricane Gilbert and beyond.

If yuh doh understand inter-iskand rivalry dats one thing...but to make blanket nonsensical staements is another thing!

Boxhill's decision shows intestinal fortitude, grit and backbone to say the least. This is what you want in a leader, some one who can and will make tough decisions.

I don't see where TnT stand to loose in this issue. This was a business decision and is being treated as such by the JFF.

How many times does these opportunites present themselves?

There are many what if's and hypotheticals we can allude to but all that is un-necessary. After all it is what it is.

Bwoy .. Mi bredren dem full a sideways chat eeh

Can you imagine what would be happening on this forum if the shoes were flipped ?

I understand the need for money but it seem deh man dem would sell dem soul .

A just pure F...ry dat !!!


I'm betting Bahrain asked everybody in South, Central and North America before they came to us.

I bet it shocked even them when we took the offer

As much as we are at rivalry with Trinidad I'm not sure we have a closer relationship with another nation.


I tell you this would be the worst thing we did since Bad mind dunce head Bustamante mashup federation.

Buoy, Di man dem heated in ya, rasta. No man naw sell dem soul ya suh. Mi goin to assign Boxhill a office a Ministry a Tourism. Mo fire fi all who object. Unity is unity!! Whether its unity with TT or unity with Barhain. If anybody believe that there is no unity within the Carribean and the Middle East, then this move by Boxhill just might bridge that gap. " Violla" !! A more united world. HAHAHA. TT fi go drink some ceroce tea and go calm dem nerves. Dis trip to JA wont make TT any better.......or worse. It can only give them a closer look Bahrain. As far as I see it, JA just get a free JA $60,000,000 plus. TT find it hard fi give us $35,000. Wicked move Mr. Boxhill. Nuh watch nuh face 'cuz man a gangster no prankster!!! HAHAHA

Guatemala turned down a greater offer.

Again, as I perceive it, the problem lies with the extended stay and the suspension of the league.

If those matters are resolved there is no problem.

personally, it seems like a slap in the face, but the fact remains, Trinidad has to do what is needed to win, Bahrain is creating many distractions and is looking to do whatever is necessary to win. Are we?

After carefully examining this issue, I have come the conclusion that 'wi fi tek di money an play the arabs.

A one week camp in Jamaica should not make Bahrain world beaters.

Of course we hope that Trinidad makes it to the cup, but I don't think that we should pass up the opportunity to make a few bucks. Every man for himself.

I can't see what the "noise" is all about.
It was a "no brainer" decision for the JFF. In fact, I would welcome them and anybody else to setup camp in Jamaica and stay as long as they want as long as we are getting paid.

TT need to calm down and start trying to establish some kind of camp in the Middle East for the return leg.

What's up with these threats from Jack? Who the hell does he thinks he is? Are we breaking any FIFA rules? Jack needs to go 'hold him corners' and keep is ass quiet.

It is a purely financial decision which anybody with sense would accept. Since when we and Trinidad are 'buddy-buddy'.
Do u remember when they purposely cause us to not gain entry into the Gold Cup by sending weak team to play in their final Caribbean Cup match. Both TT and Jamaica were the strongest team in the Caribbean but they did not grant us any favour so that we could play in the Gold Cup that year.

Yes, we Support their world cup campaign but we need to make some money too. Jack and him friends keep laughing at us and showing off with their new stadiums.

I hope Boxhill don't get nervous and change his mind because I would be the first one to start start the call for his resignation.

I don't see the reason for calling Jamaica a sell-out.
The 8 days in Jamaica is not going to do Bahrain any good. It all comes down to their performance on the field at match day. And if the contract indicates that the league should postpone games during those 8 days, so be it. Jamaica was rained out for the past week and games were postponed, no big deal. We can always reschedule. That is not a big deal.
There is no cash coming in to the JFF. I don't care how another country has helped us with oil and other supplies. That doesn't put $$ in JFF account. The money is not coming from any of our CONCACAF neighbours. So I don't see the reason for a man to try to keep his business alive. Nothing we can do will affect anyone's chances of making the World Cup.
The most I see Bahrain getting from the 8 day camp is some rest and an a** whooping. They don't need to adjust to the weather which is approximately the same as in Jamaica right now.

What I recommend for T&T is a practice match against Jamaica before their game w/ some $$ involved ... and as soon as the 1st leg is over get on a plane to Bahrain or some nearby country and get some rest.

Player,
You have a point there.

Trinidad can do these 3 things:

1. Pay us some money to play the Middle East guys 'rough' and beat them badly.

2. Pay us to allow them to set up a camp in Jamaica along side Bahrain.

3. They they can quickly arrange a match with us and pay us (again) to go 'soft' with them .

Then with us beating Bahrain convincingly and Trinidad beating us, this will give them (TT) a psychological advantage and/or unsettle Bahrain.

Caribbean disunity and in-fighting in full effect.

Sadly if the situation was reverse Jacans would be making the same arguments Trinis are making and Trinis would be making the same arguments Jacans are making. Wrong or right?

Whether the act is right or wrong is relative to which side you are on. You guys are jokesters posing as thinkers.

As legend has it, it was TnT's sacrifice that not only led to the creation of this phenomenon known as the Reggaeboyz but also afforded the CONCACAF the possibility of four largely undeserving spots in the WC.

What a way fi seh thanks.

If Jamaica hosting Bahrain is what going to cause T&T to lose the spot then T&T didn't deserve it in the first place. Even if WD make a "How to beat the soca rucks" video and sell it to Bahrain at a premium no one should complain. If Jamaica does not provide the practice games someone else will because Bahrain apprently are preparing for the games. The question is what is T&T doing to prepare? Get somtin an wave?

please. The NPL clubes should even try to get a cut my having Bahrain tour and play many teams while they are there. The same offer, I am sure, is available to our brothers to the east. If they want to pay and play us in preparation for the coveted 1/2 spot then they are more than welcome.

So what's the difference? If someone can truly explain the benefits of Bahrain playing and setting up camp in Jamaica will negatively affect T&T then we can be the judge. For those who say it will affect T&T, please list your reasons why. And, what difference would it make if they played and set up Camp in Venezuela? Bear in mind, Jamaica is not Trinidad and we share no secrets.

Trinidad should thank ($$)Jamaica for the opportunity to see Bahrain up-close and personal (study their weakness) instead of Warner running his mouth.

If it smells like fish, then it is fishy! Sounds like a Warner/Burrell Seafood combo.

Box Juice and crew need to F--Off with idiat bwoy warner and informer bowel. If it was up to me dem bwoy a history lang time inna CFU, trust mi.

Boxjuice needs to really cement hard links with the Arabs and get money pumping in the region to secure votes to fight these two old geezers.

In fact T&T are no friends of ours they are haters and hate Jamaicans with a passion. If it were not for critcket we would have gone to war years ago. T&T are but little men in a big league of nations like Jamaica. Jamaica is a power house and one day a world leader of nations.

So having set our sights high, real high why should we even blink for jack? Yow war a war done di man dem and tek over the football business in the region.

Warner time is up and bowel should never set foot again in the JFF. Da drummer roach looking man thinks he is some god for our sport.

So JFF up the anty, collect the dollars and move forward with your new war plan which is a full assault on warner and the CFU for power. MMS sey so.

We probably wouldn't business PP. Yard man nuh business bout them thing deh. But if it was TT in the reverse scenario it probably woulda just confirm some long standing suspicians bout JAck Warner.

BOXHILL...stand strong brethren. Don't follow that bwoy Warner...him a take you fi fool. There is a natural rivalry between JA and TT and them bound to make argument about something like this. It is just part of the game and gamesmanship. After all a that we still a go drink juice and focus on out business (but maintain that rivalry in football). Maybe it will cause more tickets to sell next time we haffi dust out TT (make sure you get the appearance fee in advance though).

This not a big deal. Warner even said her was okay with the game, so them come 8 days early...what difference it make.

Whether yahd man care or not they would have made the same arguments Trinis are making even if solely on principle, we all know that. No man is going to sit by quietly, least of all a Jacan, while he perceive another man is trying to undermine his efforts at reaching his goal. Especially a man with whom he supposedly shares a kinship.

Those rationalizing that TnT can benefit from this little stab in the back need to remember that it is Bahrain who is forking over the million bucks so obviously they think differently.

I suppose if it pleases those on the other side of the fence to claim they have been "stabbed in the back" then so be it..

That form of language is a bit strong and suggests that there is some form of promise or written law that we are in the same boat..

This is the unfortunate seen of the business side of FOOTball.. The game.. Could Jamaica have showed a little business etiquette... Sure.. But what s the point when we would not receive the same in kind..

If the issue is about sportsmanship, then shouldn't TnT remember sportmanship extends further than occasions when they need help..

And of course we can argue about attitudes of blacks and West Indians and make loud shouts about Solidarity but how can you see your brother struggling (the JFF) and shout solidarity when it suits you.

There were no calls for Solidarity when we helped Guatamala prepare for their last games. The situation then is the same.. Fail against Mexico and Guatamala gawn thru.. Dont beat Bahrain and si wha happen.

Its so easy for the better off, advantaged and privaledged to point fingers of red eye, stab in the back and badmind. Jamaica has to survive also. If we went and asked for a game it would be different.. So when we shout solidarity, look after your own then your own wont seek other means which sometimes may be means you dont like..

So lets talk about the difficulties of preparing a team when majority of them reside and ply their trade abroad.. What do we think of tthe Wendell plan now???

With all the stadia and professional set up league how is it TnT are caught in this situation that they fear any form of supposedly disadvantagement.

Shouldn't TNT have realised or prempt that if they made it pass Mexico, then the stakes would of been high hence have a backup plan if the players got injured or tired..

Playing Jamaica or not wouldn't make a difference to the Bahrainians acclimatising.. They probably live closer to the equator..

Those were the same arguments used by the dominant African tribes as they sold off their fellow Africans into slavery.

Come on don't you see it is a win-win situation. We get trinkets, liquor, money, ammunitions, etc...in exchange we trick the stupid white man into taking our brothers on an all-expense paid cruise across the Atlantic.

Since none of us have definite knowledge how the game benefits the Bahrainians why not base our inference on what they are willing to offer in exchange. If we go on that then there are a 1,000,000 reasons to conclude that they think they have a lot to gain from this game and camp.

Then again you guys are making the point that Bahrain is the modern day stupid white man who is paying money for a game that will benefit TnT more than them.

I think Ja would be made to pay for this shortsighted decision...after the money is wasted away what are they going to have left? Jack Warner on their a** that's what.

The JFF doesn't need cash which will only be siphoned off. They need programs and support in building an infrastructure.

Mark my word, within a few months you guys are going to be crying about the whereabout of the $1,000,000 and calling for another audit.

PP - How are we undermining their efforts? Are we selling their secrets? If you are going to take sides, then explain how this scenario is going to effect T&T chances? If so, then the counter effect is that T&T should be setting up camp In Saudi Arabia. Would this benefit them? I doubt it.

I think Warner trash talking is doing more harm than good. Right now T&T has lost their focus and that's the problem! Are they scared? They are sending the wrong signal to Bahrain. Mental toughness is the key and they should not let this startle them. That's the first sign of weakness they have already exposed this to their opponent.

Hoe has T&T lost focus?

If you or anyone else here feels that Bahrain will beat T&T,,with or without Jamaica's help..then you are sadly mistaken.

We are going to buss dem arse..good and proper.

Personally, I have an issue with the 8 day camp..dat reeks of sell-out! Especially the part of an 8 day camp.

Nontheless, the battle will be won or lost on the playing field and will have little to do with what Jamaica did..since they have been knocked out of contention for a place in germany..long ago!

Love him or hate him..Jack Warner has done MORE for CONCACAF than any previous Federation head.

Come November 12th I will be proudly waving meh trini flag in MY national stadium supporting MY team as they beat the bejesus out of Bahrain!

Dat is ah fact!
