    Munro site's fate up in air
    published: Thursday | December 27, 2007


    THE CURRENT administration of the Jamaica Football Federation (JFF) has delayed any decision on whether the present site of the academy at Munro, the choice of the previous administration under Crenston Boxhill, will be maintained.

    The fate will be known following the submission of a report on January 31 by a five-man committee that has been mandated to determine what new JFF boss, Captain Horace Burrell, described as "the true state of affairs". Heading that committee is St. James-based Bruce Gaynor, second vice president of the JFF, who has responsibility for technical development.

    It is completed by another St. James director, Orville Powell - who is also a member of JFF finance committee, St. Elizabeth FA president Courtney Browne, former JFF president Tony James, who is also chairman of the JFF sub-committee on youth development and Carvel Stewart, who has been retained from his previous role as the point man for the aca-demy from the last administration.

    Burrell said the JFF board had grave concerns with the present project at Munro and all operations there, including refurbishing work undertaken by the present contractor, has been suspended.
    Among those concerns were the "suitability of the concept articu-lated" as well as "the concept for the current site - its design and availability of the fields".
    "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has."

    It would certainly help us on the outside if we knew exactly what the JFF expects its Academy use to be.

    Aims and Objects - Purpose(s) and goal(s) articulated rather than asking us/the fans and other interested parties to guess at what was "acticulated" and by whom - Burrell's previous administration, Boxhill's administration or Burrell's now administration or whomever(?) and move to further conjecture on "suitability of the concept articulated"

    What the hell is this Academy supposed to do
    "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has."

        Hope it is not a case of Boxhill can't do anything right, or the erasing of anything related to Boxhill. Frankly speaking, I wouldn't be surprised if such was the case.
        If the despot decides a new location..., he has to justify it.....
