[Mosiah]

Yuh have time answer dem rhetorical question.

[Mosiah]

I don't agree one bit.

[Mosiah]

and it's turning out to be a major mistake!

mosiah i guess a few more jamican ub40 players will be on the RBZ under 20 team

[Tilla]

My only surprise is that he did not approach Daniel Sturridge from Manchester City as a potential candidate. I think that is a good talent, is only 19 years old and has not represented England as yet.

The thing though is that his uncle Dean turned his back on Jamaica hoping to get the call from England which never came. This could help Daniel make up his mind one way or another.

Jangle, bottom line is the age group teams exist for a reason. We cannot use national senior team to develop players, we will forever FAIL if we continue to do this. Clubs also have a huge role to play, and at present, the club football structure in Jamaica is a total failure, primarily because of poor infrastructure and even poorer coaching talent.

RF we agree, but my problem is that he hasn't seen what we have available first before looking out a road feh uncommitted foreign-born players. Are these players better than:

Khari Stephenson
Jermain Johnson
Oneil Thompson
Luton Shelton
Ricardo Gardener
Ricardo Fuller
Dane Richards
Rudolph Austin
Claude Davis
Damion Stewart
Demar Stewart
Omar Cunningham
Omar Daley
Christopher Harvey
Andy Williams

i am sure I am forgetting a few more names, but you get my drift. Have these players been given a good and consistent run in our team? Outside of Bibi, Andy and Fuller, and to a lesser extent Claud Davis the rest of those players that I have named have not been given a consistent starting positions over a reasonable period. They have played a number of times for us, but they have been in and out of the team and sometimes playing out of their natural positions. What I would like to see is JB taking a serious look at these and the other fringe players and then deciding that he needs those others. Especially if we fail to qualify for the Hex.

Barnes wants Molineux pair


Wolves duo Sylvan Ebanks-Blake and Karl Henry have been targeted by Jamaica coach John Barnes for international calls.
The two could qualify for the Caribbean island’s national side through their parentage as Barnes sets about recruiting British-based players.
Ebanks-Blake is currently with the England under-21s, but the rules governing international appearances would still give the striker the opportunity to choose Jamaica for senior caps.
Birmingham City’s on-loan Arsenal man Quincy Owusu-Abeyie played for the Dutch age-group teams all the way up to Under-21 level before opting to switch to Ghana, the homeland of his parents, for senior level.
And Henry, who has been producing the best football of his career as Wolves’ midfield leader this season, has yet to play any type of international football.

Both players are being sounded out about the proposition which comes from a manager ever likely to turn to his long experience of English football to strengthen a squad which has under-achieved in modern times.
The idea is likely to be more attractive to Henry as Ebanks-Blake, who is still only 22, may yet harbour hopes of one day challenging for England senior honours.
Manager Mick McCarthy will have mixed feelings about the potential for representative football for Henry, one of his favourite Molineux players, at a time when he already has 11 men spread out across the globe for international duty.
McCarthy is more concerned they return fit and well after his resources have been strained by injuries.
That took the manager to Blackburn yesterday to watch a series of his fringe players and comeback duo Matt Murray and Mark Davies in the 1-1 draw.
“It was great to see Matt out there again getting an hour and the same for Mark Davies,” said McCarthy.
“Sylvan has joined up with England under-21s and they are taking a look at him and seem hopeful he might be able to be involved.”

Methinks the captain has screwed-up again. question for Barnes when last England win a World Cup again ?.

[Dunny]

Here we go a(frigging)gain!

I am sure every player will be given the chance to prove that they deserve to be in the squad,i am sure if the home based players are better than the UB40'S Barnes will select them,so Mosiah you have no reason to worry.John Barnes like every Jamaican want to see a winning Jamaican football team.

Could you tell me the last time England with the Nuggsy-like defencemen won a World Cup.

sturridge would be elligible through grandparetns however that kid has england all over him and he will play for enlgnd one day ... hands down thats a no no

I think barnes will look at these watford playerS eg lewis young and theo robinson aslo there is a neal trotman(preston NE) and zavon hines (coventry )

[Bricktop]

I think that is a wrong approach by Barnes. He is yet to our homegrown international players and he's talking about players outside of the EPL and third generation at that.

He has yet to see our homegrown international players? Really? How about bringing in as much talent as possible and let them compete against each other for a spot? Once again I say that Jamaica knows NOTHING about football so let's just leave it to the professionals

[Bricktop]

Of course you don't you and your ilk are the problem with Jamaican football

[HL]

First good move by Barnes.

As if Jamaica has ever won anything. Does England 6-0 Jamaica ring a bell?
