T&TFF launch Project 2006
SUPERSTAR Rangers take to the Northampton Football Club training ground during their 10-day tour of Britain last month.
The Trinidad and Tobago Football Federation (T&TFF) laid down the blueprint for another charge at a FIFA senior World Cup berth on Thursday May 15, 2003 when 'Project 2006—The Way Forward' was launched at Crowne Plaza hotel, Port of Spain. The project will cost an estimated $23,072,680, which should be sourced by an International Matches and Tours Committee chaired by T&TFF special adviser and FIFA vice-president Jack Warner.
Already, Warner claims $2 million has been added to the coffers courtesy a soft loan from a 'benevolent banker'.
A letter has also been dispatched to Prime Minister Patrick Manning, in his capacity as Finance Minister, while overtures to the private sector have begun.
Key to the T&TFF's plans is the performance of the national teams and the local governing body has turned to St Lucia-born, but long-time Trinidad and Tobago resident, Stuart Charles-Fevrier to mould the 'Soca Warriors'.
Charles has been handed a three and a half year contract although he does not hold the dual responsibility of technical director as did his predecessor, Hannibal Najjar.
Najjar complained that the job was too much for one person and, apparently, the T&TFF have listened.
It is the start of a campaign they would hope ends better than the last.
