Good luck to the Jaguars. My Bermuda played them in a friendly/warmup the other day. Hopefully they'll manage a better debut contest than we (a tough 2-1 loss to Haiti).

That said, the US is a heck of a challenge.

Hopefully Guyana doesn’t play the role of Thailand at the women’s World Cup

Good luck Jaguars!

I'm not only rooting for him to score a goal, rooting for Guyana to win. The US team too cocky.

 
ray 2019-06-18 16:48:30 

In reply to Chrissy

cool..I'll look out for the fella

 
ray 2019-06-18 16:48:57 

In reply to vereman

They not good enough to be cocky

 
Chrissy 2019-06-18 17:51:13 

In reply to vereman

I'm just looking for Guyana to represent. We're not the strongest team - not even close.

In reply to ray

They're cocky against the smaller CONCACAF nations, so it's always a delight to see them stumble.

 
Chrissy 2019-06-18 18:10:46 

In reply to Tryangle

That's who they can beat although Jack may well be rethinking that famous match in T&T lol

 
ray 2019-06-18 18:26:18 

In reply to Tryangle

true...I think they play as if it's not important against smaller countries, no wonder they got their ass handed to them against T & T

 
Larr Pullo 2019-06-18 19:05:37 

Time and link? I think it's in minnesota so might be way past my bedtime...

dayne 2019-06-19 11:59:57 

The sport teams from the Caribbean are having a bad period, everyone is losing. the WI, Guyana, Trinidad and I guess Martinique tonight.

Mango taking licks....Julie still ripening but had what the Grenadians call a silon my favorite type....we have a couple varieties of those in DA....yum...

In reply to dayne

Jamaica won so that's something. And Haiti as well.

It only gets tougher though.

Hoping that Bermuda can prevent an onslaught from Costa Rica tomorrow evening.

 
Chrissy 2019-06-19 15:52:16 

In reply to dayne

Jamaica won and so did Panama which is actually in di Caribbean (as opposed to Guyana)

 
Tryangle 2019-06-19 16:24:06 

In reply to Chrissy

Maybe a better description for dayne is CFU member teams?

 
birdseye 2019-06-19 16:58:56 

I expected more Indo representation on the Guyana team

 
imusic 2019-06-19 17:57:57 

In reply to birdseye

Not many of Indian descent play football at a higher domestic level in either Guyana or Trinidad. Certainly nowhere compared to representation in cricket.

That is noti to say there aren’t really good footballers of Indian descent in either country. There are. But they’re few.

Same for putagee, chinese etc. Football in both countries is, and has always been dominated by players of African descent.

In reply to imusic

In Bermuda there aren't many white fellas playing at our top level in cricket or football, it's like it's not encouraged for whatever reason (racial tension? culture clash?), despite there being talent at youth ranks. Do you think there's something similar happening in T&T/Guyana for football with the fellas of Indian descent? May make for an interesting case study.

 
granite 2019-06-19 20:20:34 

In reply to imusicI have followed TT football forever and always see quite good Indo footballers at college level,many expected to to make it at a higher level.The next time you hear about them they are in an American University.I can definitely recall Javid Mohammed who was a talked about defender,and expected to play for TT,ended up in USA on scholarship,back to TT and never hear bout him again.He was actually captain of TT under 17 or under 19 a few years ago.More recent than Mohammed was Dass,he is on a scholarship in the US.Four or 5 years ago there were 3 Indos on the Under 17 team much was expected of them all 3 played and one scored,I don't remember their names.I think those Indos are doing the right thing by taking their studies more than football simply because we are shit at football.Just a few weeks ago TT called up and Indo from Santa Flora for training but he has been given a contract with a Canadian club.

I feel sure Mr.Sat Maharaj will be proud of them,not so Mr.Fitzgerald Hinds. lol lol lol
