The Warriors’ Week in Review
This Week - T&T Kit with an Iraqi flag; Brent Sancho helps Gillingham’s return to winning ways
We’re the Soca Warriors, not the Osood Al Rafidayn - Oh, adidas. You’ve made us kit that is not only boring, but that should rightfully be worn by the Iraq National Football Team. Exhibit A: the T&T kit, modelled by the dashing Carlos Edwards, midfield Warrior. 
Exhibit A
Notice the horitzonal red/white/black stripes behind the TTFF crest. Compare to Exhibit B: Iraqi Flag and Exhibit C: T&T Flag.

Brent’s off the bench - Brent Sancho seems to have been forgiven by his usually embittered Gillingham bosses. He’s been in their starting line-up for their past few games, and was named ‘man of the match’ after their 1-0 thrashing of Swansea, the club with which Sancho had been in loan talks.

And make sure that you have something to wave. Of course, if you wanted to be uniformed member of the Warrior Nation, you could always join the club. [...]
