Jamaica 0 vs Aruba 0 - that's what wi come to!

[Gamma]

au contraire mon frere, i believe that reason has departed from you with the speed of a rat escaping from a flooding aqueduct!

[Don1]

Actually they were. But I looked forward to seeing the Tegats, Lattys, Feddahmops, Anglins, etc in action. After all, the NPL was the highest level of football in the country.

ok boss... but were your school a contender for the DCup title...would you still flee?

Did you really use the word flee? I decided to watch better football games. Marcus and Cornwall had a big clash at Drax, didn't see the big deal, especially when big NPL clash was there the next day. But as m say ... some just wanna go to school boy games and beat dem chest.

Pity!

Parents of 22 youths per squad time 6 squads? What about the old boys who control the money? A few old boys with 22 sons on 6 clubs teams will donate but the majority of old boys are going to give the money to their high school teams. ISSA track and field and basketball will probably be getting the money that was going to ISSA football!!

Money will continue to flow toward ISSA. Hyde like Bolt and Blake before him is a sponsored his school star. It is an unfair question but I am going to ask it, how many Jamaican footballers do you believe will make more money that ISSA star Jaheel Hyde is 2015? Many ISSA star athletes will soon making more money that NPL ballers and low level Jamaican Track and Field athletes! We may soon see ISSA teams using corporate sponsored overseas football coaches but the recreational football season will still end in December because the boys have to study.

When you get some time check out the result of your recreational football.

LOL! I understand.

So you believe you are a "true football fan" because you fled your sorry ass school team to watch NPL. That of course is ludicrous. You are just making a virtue out of the necessity not to get embarrassed...Escapism

I'm not saying you're not a football fan... they're football fans of all types. They're some who don't want to see their school get 12-Love so they flee. And they're others who would organize themselves and improve the team so the embarrassment doesn't occur...then still go to NPL

[Rockman]

Lazie,school boy football creates supporters of the game,and stadium would probably be even more empty without it.
High Schools have five years to make players of their team earn a distinction in GCE football,the JFF has three years to to transform those bunch of misfits from dreaded shool boy football into worthy U20 players,why am I not seeing any striking difference between the influence of the experts and that of novices?
Just mabe if York Castle.....,you would not miss the thrill of rivalry which helps in enduring the rigors of finding yourself trapped for five years with adults arrogating parental rights and the mean class bully from first form.

Well where has your fascination with s/boy football put us? http://www.concacaf.com/category/und...hedule-results.

When will you all realize we're going backwards on the international scene?

Supporters of the game on a whole or just school boy football? It is comical when a match between Marcus and Ochie high draw more crowd than Blackstars v Arnett.

But I won't be battering my fingers too much on this ... I'll just point you to http://www.concacaf.com/category/und...hedule-results

Yuteman it is not fascination with school ball that makes Jamaica mediocre. Most school teams are HORRIBLE...And so are most NPL teams. You have acknowledged that your school team was a horror show.

What holds Jamaican football back is those people in charge who REFUSE to implement YOUTH DEVELOPMENT... That is NOT the job of school ball or the school community. That's the job of the JFF. If you expect schools to play that primary role...make sure they have the resources.

I don't support my school team so that boys can play for Jamaica. I support it so we can help sustain a vibrant school community

If unnu want more dan dat...pay fi it. As a so called "true football fan" ..WHE YUH CHECKBOOK DEH???

Unuh want vibrant school community ... guh a sports day or watch cricket. Of course the JFF is to be blamed as well ... but the reality is school boy football is sucking away scarce funds that could be used for youth development. Of course LIME gonna waste their money sponsoring this useless league after all .... the crowd is always there. However, if the crowd had supported the youth leagues they tried to start a few years back, causing the sponsors to pump the needed funds there, maybe we wouldn't be drawing with Aruba. ARUBA .... TO RAHTID.

[Rockman]

What I find peculiar is apparently the buck does not stop at the JFF,school boy football is The reason,and urrell has to be happy with that.

[HL]

I predicted that the USA will make the cut.....big up Tab Ramos!!


BTW: You did YCHS proud with your conduct on the forum. We all get in tete-a-tete... but you maintained a high standard . You did not lower your standard --to name calling and cursing.

[Assasin]

tek it easy Lazie. LOL

[Rockman]

Sass,the JFF finds it convenient to blame school boy football for failures but takes the credit for whatever success it achieved.If the future depends on early intervention,why then the bulk of the money and resources are earmarked for the MNT?
Whose interest is it to have JP attention focused on school boy football?
