Formerly retired Reggae Boy drops out!
1:37 pm, Tue October 1, 2013



With top striker Marlon King to miss Jamaica's next CONCACAF World Cup Qualifier against the USA on October 11, diminutive striker Dane Richards looks set to earn a recall.

Richards who was out with an injury last played for the Reggae Boyz in the final game of the semi final round of the World Cup Qualifiers in which he scored two goals against Antigua and Barbuda.

Another player, British based striker Theo Robinson who was in the Reggae Squad for the last two World Cup Qualifiers but is yet to play under national coach, Winfried Schafer. Also in the reckoning, he was watched by coach Schafrer as Doncaster Rovers played Sheffield Wednesday in the English League over the weekend.

“I think he plays very well but now we want to see which player is ready for United States. We have more time now for everybody to come directly to Kansas city and they have time for training and I hope we will have a good team”, Schafer added.

Sheffield United 1 Crawley 1: King's maiden strike eases pressure on Weir... for now

Marlon King probably preserved David Weir's fledgling managerial career with his first goal for Sheffield United.
King's second half equaliser rescued the beleaguered United boss from a seventh successive defeat.
It still wasn't enough to convince Weir's critics in an anxious Bramall Lane crowd - or give them confidence that the Blades ' marginal escape from the bottom of League zone will outlast the weekend programme.

But an improved second half display after a feeble opening period that ended in a storm of boos may well have given Weir a little breathing space.
Asked if it had, he said: 'I hope so. I'm disappointed we didn't win but it's a positive step.
'There's not a never-ending time on how many defeats you can take but I'm hoping to build something over a period.'

A United hierarchy swelled by the newly acquired wealth of a Saudi Prince have been determined not to panic over the club's sixth manager in as many years.
But Prince Abdullah's representative on the board, Jim Phipps, said pointedly ahead of Crawley's visit: 'We are reaching a moment where calls for patience will fall on deaf ears.'

Half-time derision, with Crawley comfortably leading, only served to amplify that warning.
An unmarked Jamie Proctor had headed Crawley - now six matches unbeaten - in front from a brilliantly engineered short corner involving Andy Drury and Billy Clarke.
But Weir switched to 4-4-2, going more direct and giving King much needed support up front, to turn the game.
The Jamaica striker opened his United account in his third appearance with an assured left foot finish after Febian Brandy played him clear. It was United's first goal in nearly seven hours.
Hearts were back in mouths when Crawley's Nicky Adams appeared to be brought down only to be denied a penalty, but United finished the stronger.
Weir admitted he and his players had a 'frank discussion' at the interval.
'They didn't go under and responded in the right manner,' he said. 'The goal showed great technique from Marlon.

Can that really happen; a sportman being denied entry?

[Tilla]

Yes it can. Jermaine Pennant was recently denied entry to the US when his team Stoke City had preseason here.

That said, we have seen where Jamie Lawrence was allowed to play for us although he had a criminal record in the UK.

You have to wonder if those same rules would still rigorously apply if instead of playing friendlies in the US, it was to tek part in a world cup.
