The End Is The Beginning
The Warriors bid farewell to Rotenburg on Wednesday, and last night they touched down in Piarco International Airport in Trinidad to a heroes’ welcome.
Jah Gol, a regular poster on the Soca Warriors Forums, describes the scene:
It was truly remarkable to hear the sound of the people screaming for the Warriors. I’ve never heard anything that loud before. The chants wouldn’t ... [read]
Memories Remain
I have loved this game ever since I first kicked (well, tripped over) a football in my backyard in Trinidad, at an age when crawling still came more naturallly than this awkward two-leggedness.
I’ve played various sports at different levels, but none have ever come close to usurping football’s throne. Perhaps I inherited this love (though alas, not the skills) from ... [read]
Not With A Bang
At half time I was down but not out.
At full time that Warriors were down 2-0 and out of the World Cup.
Till 2010, then.
Or at least - till tomorrow.
(Brent - doh study it, you are still and always a Warrior. Carlos - you are my player of the tournament. Birchall - you are a Trini, a Warrior, a hero in ... [read]
Time To Put On Your White Clothes
One of my all-time favourite soca songs is called Glow, by Alison Hinds and David Rudder. It is six Carnivals old, having been released back in 2001.
The song is a tribute to the popular “Glow” fete in Trinidad, the premise of which is that everyone wears white in a venue lit by ultraviolet lights. The effect is ethereal.
“Wear white, ... [read]
Gray Days
Defensive stalwart Cyd Gray is injured, and will miss our game against Paraguay tomorrow.
It’s a good thing we’ve got Avery John back following his two game suspension.
Fingers crossed that there are no other injuries in the Warrior camp before kickoff tomorrow!

Do or Die
Every day our coach, Leo Beenhakker, keeps reminding the squad that our job is not yet over. We’ve already proved we’re not whipping boys but we want more. Recording Trinidad & Tobago’s first World Cup win is the minimum goal we’ve set ourselves. Then, if the gods are our on our side, who knows?
To beat Paraguay we need to be ... [read]
Beenie is no Worrier
“The team is ready again, they gained a lot of confidence, a lot of courage and we know what we have to do. The message to the guys is focus on the Paraguay match try to win the match, do what you have to do. In that way, we will go for it and try to have a good result.” ... [read]
Soca Warriors Vibes it Up
If you’ve never listened to the audio documentaries on BBC 1Xtra, now is a good time to start.
I’ve just spent a most enjoyable half-hour listening to the latest from the 1Xtra gang - a documentary on our beloved Soca Warriors. It features interviews with the Little Magician, the Duke, Tallest and Me Mum, as well as snippets from fans ... [read]

“Send for the Doctor, I got the music fever … / I start to sweat and my temperature rise / I get diagnose with catching the vibes” - 3 Canal - Send for the Doctor
I haven’t been so well this weekend, so to keep my spirits up I’ve been listening to 3 Canal’s latest album, Vibes on repeat. It’s a ... [read]
