Dear Sir,

I beg of you to afford me but a wee space in your excellent newspaper. This offering of mine has been inspired and I use the word carefully by the news that our soccer team was defeated by that giant of a country, otherwise known as the Rock of Gibraltar, population 23,000. I can only assume that 50% of this Island is inhabitated by females a further 35% by older and very young Rockers, which leaves 15% or approximately 3450 men of football playing age to choose from. Further scientific deductions conclude that of those able men only 15-20% (or 517 - 690 ) most likely lace up on the weekend with the remainder being avid rock climbers..

Where am I going with this, I suspect you and your avid readers ask? To which my honest reply is, " I ain't sure". A better question would be " what the heck is the BFA doing with our money" ? What is their plan and where is the Technical Director? The bye betta get here soon or at minimum ask that the free spending, like drunken soldiers, administrators be challenged by the, free giving Government, to provide evidence that they intend to fill that role prior to financing further misadventures. Didn't they get it when the coach admitted that he hadn't heard of his initial opponent, a country? Whoa!!!! Aren't they concerned that while we are battling rock climbers, little Guadeloupe are turning heads in the Gold Cup, against real football countries. Whatttttttttt!!!!!!!!

Stop press!!!! Just in. Trinidadian being flown to the island to meet with coaches prior to advising the FA of where they should search for the new Technical Director. Well blow me down. We now need a Trinidadian to tell us what we need. Didn't the recent exploits of our cricket team highlight the fact that going that route might not be the best idea? Well didn't it?
