I understand why players don’t but it’s highkey embarrassing how reluctant Black athletes are to represent their countries

Collectively we are way too comfortable representing Europe but run from the grind of making our own respectable.

The football federations are just as much to blame as the players are. :mjpls:

You have to ask yourself how the phuck does Mohamed Kallon only play 39 times in a 17 year international career?

It’s unfortunate but due to lack of funding, the resources that African/Caribbean football federations can’t provide is a huge turn off for the players from big clubs. Imagine flying private everywhere with a big 6 club then having to sleep on the floor of an airport when representing your country due to issues with flight scheduling :heh:

For sure. We all know they’re incompetent and there’s been instances where players were interested only for the federations to fukk it up.

So I’m not getting onto anyone individually cause theres too many variables.

But collectively? Embarrassing

There's always an official who tries to strong arm the players. Seen it happen with West Indies cricket in the past.

The Jamaican women‘s football team refused to play just last month over mistreatment and not getting paid. The players were asking for their World Cup bonuses and the JFF were like “We nuh have dat :hubie:
