As far as I understand it, he would have missed the transfer window for the US had he played in today's game. So, as soon as that was determined, they sent him off to Indy as a replacement for the injured Dino Williams.
Omar is a huge loss for MBU in today's final but he played all 90 minutes for Indy Eleven last night in their 2-0 win over Oklahoma. When last has any player scored 20 goals in the local league?!?
So, can MBU win it all without Omar and Dino? Let's see! I will be there!

The PLCA wrestled control of the country's top league from the JFF and still have not done anything of merit as it relates to improving the league.
Joke ting!!!
How much do you think he makes at Indy? Say he makes US$1,000 per month, do you think he should sit out that difference for at least 4 months or even a year?
The national title is worth more than this player's personal livelihood?

It's up to the clubs to have adequate back up. They would have been in the same position if he as injured. Also what if he got injured after an interest was expressed and he played in the final?
Giving up an opportunity given all the circumstances THAT would have been a joke ting!!

A few more months in Jamaica may not be the demise of Gordon, but the perception that the national title is of no worth can be a lasting image in the minds of the fans.

So the MBU president may have blundered with his stance towards the final, but sending away his best player to earn a decent living is an act that deserves praise in my opinion.
A year from now no one will remember that Omar left before the final. And a year from now, this move before the final may have given the player the opportunities to move to the MLS or better.

If MBU only reason for sending the player away was to earn him better wages then that would be a first for any club that is trying to grow in my opinion. I am willing to bet that MBU benefitted financially from the decision.
I think we will have agree to disagree on this one ite. I think the decision demonstrates the short sightedness plaguing our football.Last edited by Brush; May 1, 2016, 06:43 PM.
