I must admit.....this is the first time in a long time that I have been so excited over a roster. This has to be the strongest Reggae Boyz team ever assembled. I really hope they play well. - T.K.

Too bad only eleven can play at a time. Give the JFF's finances how dem going find uniform for everybody? I wouldn't like to be one of the ten or so who flew half way around the world only not to dress.

That's okay. I have gotten so used to us making horrible roster selections for games that it never crossed my mind that we would actually try and put together a strong squad. It looks like we may actually be getting serious about this football thing. I pray this is a sign of a more focused and professional approach. - T.K.
