Lord help me...I am trying assist on a Gamma comment? Groan!Originally posted by Bricktop View Post
Bricktop, I think Gamma's reluctance to embrace your trumpeted announcement is well founded. You see, over the past several seasons we have been told this youngster and at least one other from Craig Butler's 'academy' was signed or about to be signed by 'big club'. It never happened. ...and oooh yes, some of those 'shouts' have been carried in the local media. Let's await the drying of the ink on contract before giving what would be deserving praise and joyous 'puppa licks'!Last edited by Karl; August 1, 2015, 05:36 AM."Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world.

Why not start another thread on, JAMAICA's TOP U-18 FOOTBALL TALENTS...or some such thing?"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has."Comment

how is it off topic...you refuse to give the kid ratings because he was said to be signing a contract with Ajax and didn't...the point is he has gotten further than any local 17 year old...in case you don't understand what's going on...he cannot sign to Ajax because of residency restrictions...Ajax placed him at Trencin until he can qualify...

Who said I failed to give him ratings?Originally posted by Bricktop View Post
The truth is, I visited at the invitation of Mosiah a Craig Butler session at JC long before he went off with these kids and his results and the kids display were very good. Craig was doing good work with them and you could see it was paying off.
...and I told Craig and Mosiah so!
I am not surprised that some of Craig's charges hold out great promise.
Your claim of "not giving ratings" is a red herring!
-------
Gamma made a comment and I said he had good reason for making that comment.
btw - Reminder(s)
- That Ajax signing was aired in 2012!
You may have forgotten that it is now, 2015!
- That Chelsea and Juventus having interest was being noised aboard more than a year ago.
...and...
What happened here - http://www.jamaicaobserver.com/sport...-Genk_14789098
...if my memory serves me right, even before that there were reports of signing with Standard Liege.

...so what is this about?...in case you don't understand what's going on...he cannot sign to Ajax because of residency restrictions...Ajax placed him at Trencin until he can qualify...

Trencin and Genk and Ajax are all affiliated...he could not play for Genk because of residency restrictions...Trencin is a feeder club...the agent who is affiliated with Chelsea placed him at Trencin so that Chelsea could get a look at him...the plan is for Chelsea to sign him...move him to Genk & watch him develop...you are a hater...plain and simple

OK! Would a number of such 'fuzzy'/contradictory releases lead to, in your brain thought saying ---->Remember that is what is being discussed...Gamma's statement on caution?Let's make the connection to why some are cautious?
...and for you to continue on after such 'fuzzy' statements to believe...even think...for one moment that anyone being cautious is "a hater" is not logical thought! It is nonsensical!!!"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has."Comment

what fuzzy statements? HE COULD NOT SIGN AT AJAX OR GENK BECAUSE OF RESIDENCY RESTRICTIONS...what you don't understand bout that...he has been placed at a club in a country without the residency restriction by an agent working for Chelsea...the plan is to sign him to Chelsea then develop him at Genk...what you not understanding?Comment

Leon is talent and Bulter trying but it would help to just talk the truth sometimes. I don't know why embarrass yourself and the youths to say they are signed when they are not. I am sure his management know the difference.- Don't let negative things break you, instead let it be your strength, your reason for growth.

and at that time you said you didn't see it in any major publications only in local news...every major british paper is reporting on Bailey to Chelsea via Genk...and why are you ignoring the fact that he signed to Trencin?

Is he signed to Trencin??? I heard he is going to a club in Belgium only 1 month after signing with Trencin??- Don't let negative things break you, instead let it be your strength, your reason for growth. Life is for living and I won't spend my life feeling cheated and downtrodden.
