The quality is better - Simoes

[Tilla]

OK, you know more than Simoes.

Club football in Jamaica today is far better than it was in 1994 when simoes landed here. Players are now being paid to play the game, facilities, while nowhere where they should be, are miles ahead of what they were back in 1994. I dont believe Simoes is saying our club football is world standard, I believe what he is saying is that its better than what it was back then. And yes, T&T clubs with its droves of Brazilians and Caribbean nationals, are still losing to Jamaica club teams.

Thank you sah. The man is making a professional acessment based on his training and experience in the field. The majority of us here do not have what it take to make that call.

Just to go 'deeper' - Let us accept as fact that the quality of the NPL is greater than what held during Simoes' first term...and, truth is I also think that what I have seen during my visits '98 through to last year, shows an improving EPL...but, how does that improvement 'fit' within what we see, in say, the EPL, other European leagues...and how does that 'stack up' against our expectations of our national teams walking at the TOP OF THE WORLD?

Would, for example, love to qualify for the 2010 World Cup...but, I would be in a r*&^%$$ mood if having got there our performances were similar to the naive ('98 to '98 other teams comparisons), sub-par (Yes, even in the Japan match which we won...and, as an aside - Japan is no longer the '98 Japan!)...even stupid performances (when compared to what currently holds as TOP WORLD performances) we put on show to world in 1998!

You use one game to make your decision?

Look at the overall picture and statistics. You shouldn't use it only when you refering to Jamaican economy under the PNP/JLP.

Think of 94 and the clubs structure, and think of what it is like today and argument done.

Club structure? England has an amazing club structure, where are they? Unuh can believe what unuh want ... just remember that I said that the talk of better quality is all PR.

[Assasin]

Lazie that is all Rene was saying. The quality of the ball playing at the NPL has improved and nothing more.

Same thing with England and like Jamaica it hasn't yet transend to the national team but we hope he can change that.

Gosh is that so hard to understand?

[Mosiah]

Okay. I was giving him until 11:00 am for his next dose.

He'll be alright after this, gamma!
