Snow Balla Mania enabled by Jamaican Class Prejudice

[Bricktop]

I seem to recall one Rene Simoes weighing in on this topic...hush

[Bricktop]

"The man is making a general point about outstanding Jamaicans being nurtured at home...not about outstanding Jamaican footballers "

Glad you see the folly of your argument

[Don1]

Nope ...what I see is your inability to contest a valid observation

Poor yuh

[Bricktop]

Woieee...spin like gig...

[Karl]

The article has within numnber of disgraceful utterances.

Am sure LB Smith one of Jamaica's leaders in his saner moments will on reflection be ashamed of himself!!!

Pointing out (some of) what is wrong with Jamaica?
Indeed!

[Don1]

Didn't Simoes have the core of the local players together MOST of the time? How many times there were overseas training in Brazil, Africa, Mexico etc plus the numerous friendly games? How many times in an interview Simoes stressed the need for chemistry? When the overseas players came in for a game, they just slotted in where needed.

People fail to realized how important that was for Jamaica to qualify for France 98.

LOL.

What you say is correct. What you say here is EXACTLY part of what's required to develop Jamaican football...and as a side benefit achieve WCQ

Expats should be recruited to fill gaps AFTER the local contingent is exposed to high level play over a couple years and have a CHANCE to develop high level team skills

Unfortunately Jamaicans have zero patience for that but prefer get-rich-quick schemes built around mediocre Snow Ballas

Thanks for inadvertently making my point for me

[Karl]

what is incorrect about his statement?

Come on, Don1 - LLoyd B. Smith's nuanced spilling of division is disgraceful...and particular so coming form a national leader.

[Don1]

Yep... He weighed in on the point brilliantly by turning his "trained seals" into a compact unit and achieving WCQ in short order....a mostly local team with appropriate, committed UB40 support

Poor yuh

[Bricktop]

Feel free to overlook his call for abandonment of schoolboy football + disbanding/consolidation of the myriad leagues across the island...hush...

[Don1]

Oh he said that?? High schoolboy football should be abandoned?? Never saw that

Kindly post the reference for evaluation of the context... your mere word is insufficient

[Don1]

LOL... it's so easy to make up inane, meaningless responses like that.. aint it?

Poor yuh

[Bricktop]

Skechers gi a next yute amnesia to rhattid?

[Don1]

You too are entitled to an opinion

[Don1]

Post di reference nuh yute?? Back up your claims...yuh fraid??

If Simoes said Jamaica should not be depending on HS ball as a key national player development system...he is 1000% correct..It was not designed for that.

If he was of the view that HS ball should be abandoned...he's misguided

Now post what he said for evaluation please

[Don1]

Au contraire .. it is his finest piece in memory
