Trinidad and Tobago National Senior Team coach Dennis Lawrence lamented individual errors and poor finishing as the Soca Warriors crashed out of contention for the Russia 2018 World Cup after a 3-0 loss away to Panama last night.
The result, which was the first time that Panama ever got a result of any kind against the Warriors in World Cup qualifying competition, left Trinidad and Tobago with no chance of advancing despite having two games to spare against Mexico and the United States next month.

“Of course it’s very disappointing because we are not into the competition [to lose] games,” said Lawrence, at the post-match press conference. “We knew what was at stake [last night] because if we could have managed to get a victory it would have kept us in it so we are very, very disappointed.”
Lawrence, a hero with the Warriors team in 2006 and a first-time head coach, said the visitors acquitted themselves well but could not recover after falling behind after self-inflicted errors.
Curtis Gonzales and Kevan George failed to stop Panama attacker Gabriel Torres, who ran half the length of the pitch for the opening goal while Carlyle Mitchell doubled their host’s advantage with an own goal in the second half.
“I knew we were coming into the game and it was going to be a very difficult one because Panama are a very organised team,” said Lawrence. “I thought the game was very tight before two individual errors cost us the first two goals. And from there it was difficult because Panama showed a good drive and determination tonight to get a victory and I want to congratulate them on that.”
The 2006 Warriors squad were led by record goalscorer Stern John, who sat on the bench last night as Lawrence’s assistant coach. Yesterday, Lawrence started his third centre forward in six games—but Trinidad and Tobago have not managed a single goal from any of them.

“If we put away the first chance then it put Panama under pressure, we are on the front foot and it gives us something to hold onto,” said Lawrence. “It’s a situation we had in the last couple of games. We’ve conceded goals and also missed opportunities and it’s something we have to try and fix.
“It’s a position on the football pitch which I’ve been searching for, which is that striker who knows how to put the ball into the back of the net. Tonight showed the difference.
“Panama had the couple opportunities and they put away three. We had our chances and we missed so that cost us the game in the end.”
The former Everton and Wigan Athletic assistant coach said he will have one eye on the future when the Warriors reconvene next month to play Mexico in Mexico City and host the United States.
He assured supporters that the Warriors still intend to put out a team good enough to compete though.

“We’ve got a responsibility and there’s still a lot to play for, for other teams,” said Lawrence. “Obviously we are not in contention anymore but we are going to ensure the we put together a squad with the view of the future. We will always put together a squad that will compete and make sure that we don’t let the Hexagonal teams down because obviously we understand that we have a responsibility to go out and put in the performances to try and get results…
“We have to find a way to dust ourselves off as soon as possible and move on. We have to start looking ahead to the future.”

So all da time Dennis was in Everton Wanda wat he learn over dey to cum an implement it to de drunkerds an dem steups
Only labourers he put to strike on top
Derek, please keep your head Buddy, Success brings unwarranted attacks. I have known you from school, since then your work speaks volumes, that nobody can take away, or tarnish Bro. See you weekend at the stadium
Derek, you are the last men’s national coach to win a Caribbean title with your team in 2014. Keep killing them with success.
??????
You kill me yes Cornell! Lol. Behave yuhself nah…
Go easy Derek. There will always be people trying to pull you down because they cannot get to your level to push you up. Ignore stupidity remember empty vessels make the most noise. Relax my friend.
Thanks Bruce Aanensen
Lasana Liburd I don’t comment on the group but when people like Roland Clarke continue to bad talk coaches like myself who have track record. What can I say. Tell him that I am not his friend and leave me alone please because I can be a different person. What he have won as a coach?
No need to go there my brother. Let your work continue to do the talking. Lions never worry about opinions of sheep. Stay blessed.
Thanks bro
Hey Derek your track record of Success at both Club and Country speak for itself bro…as the saying goes they only pelt Stones at trees laden with fruit stay positive ?
You leave out our best player Levi who could have been used as a forward but u bawling steupzzz
it seems to be the common try mistakes/inexperience/poor finishing……..so WHY cant the caribbean teams put emphasis on finishing since goals win matches?…..no strategic 5-year /10-year plans? will the squad dis-band after qualifiers to convene activities a few months before the next major tournament? shouldnt there be a sustained focus on passing, crossing and finishing…..i think LAWRENCE should be allowed to continue a program that establishes a blueprint for the TRINI style of play, from youth to seniors,….this gives identity…..brazil is going back to the ginja, italy has all but abandon the catenaccio..( to their peril?)…..but i KNOW this WONT happen because the p administration of football is rife with ” politics” within the various football bodies ….many individuals with a lot of knowledge but proper execution is lacking……ACTIVITIES WITHOUT ACCOMPLISHMENT……#travesty….ah waiting to read/ hear from the “experts” as they dissect and analyse the issues in their post-mortems……yeah..mi vex….as much as Lawrence must bear the brunt of the blame, but what about the attitude of the players? was the OVERALL performance ..a manifestation of the coach’s philosophy…..?…..questions ,questions….
Good question Lasana. “Pick up” players maketh a “pick up” side. So I don’t think he should be looking to merely “pick up” players.
On the contrary, he can do like deceased Holly B and engage in some real scouting for talent.
Keith has suggested that he starts looking deeper in the Super League.
I would also like to suggest that he starts grooming and blooding more U-20s and see who’s new that he can pluck from the SSFL
After all one would imagine that TT’s 2022 WC campaign begins with remaining two hex matches.
Wouldn’t you agree?
I wouldn’t. Not that I disagree with you on the developing talent bit. But the upcoming two games have nothing to do with 2022 in the way I feel you’re suggesting.
We are better off trying to bring some respectability to our brand than just throwing in kids to have a readymade excuse for being spanked. That won’t do anyone any good including the kids.
But I agree we need to focus more on identifying and nurturing talent long term.
Btw kids are young goats lol.
But no kidding, young ones might be more attuned to coaching than old ones with set bad habbits.
Where can he pick some up Siewdath?
Steups Mr. Lawrence. Too much excuses, just admit the job is bigger than you and move on. Your footballers are also a colossal waste of time. I will always support local football as I’m not a band wagonist and don’t follow foreign football like others do, but you making my country shame.
He needs to search for a better bunch of defenders and a creative midfielder, a holding midfielder as well as a couple of capable supportive flanking mids – and a goal-hungry striking combination with the skills set and basic competence to at least be able to shoot between the uprights and under the bar.
In other words, he pretty much needs an entirely new squad of disciplined players.
..8 matches and 3 points. Call some Super League players. They SURELY cannot do worse..
Cornell Glenn
So true manage
We need a good coach
We were very poor last evening. There did not seem to be any spark in the team. Why? I have no idea. Both of our experienced key players were totally off color, but the miss to give us a 1-1 score was a huge setback. The own goal is a mistake that good defenders seldom make in those circumstances and was the final nail in our coffin.
Everybody is making very good suggestions regarding what needs to be done but then this has been so for years. As a people why can we not get the basics right.
The same prevails in our politics.
The answer is that good people do not want to get involved without getting rid of the has beens and those who have personal agendas, not to mention the high levels of dishonesty and corruption in all areas of our country.
I know from experience, if you cannot change it get out. Your integrity will otherwise be painted with the same brush, and you become tainted.
Very sad, should not be, but that is the reality.
I respect your experience but your statement is defeatist. I don’t accept that.
Dominic I respect everyone’s opinion, and have no issue with your post. I do try to be positive and will remain hopeful. People who know me well will tell you that I always say ” It is better to live in hope than die in despair”
I hear you
Better to live in hope than die in despair …. good quote
Steups
He said S John was chosen to assist with striking due to his experience as a striker hpw ever it is our weak area when chances comes our way
He keep changing up the team alot also changes to the back line i agree with you .
Brent, see how he brought on Tyrone Charles ahead of Jamille Boatswain yesterday? Four days ago, Boatswain was the answer. Then discarded after a poor performance but one in which he didn’t service in line with his strengths.
Just as Chabeth noted that Jan was ditched after one calamitous mistake.
Sometimes a coach can lose his dressing room when he is felt to be too ruthless. In that players are afraid that they can give their all and still be punished for human error.
I know the other side to that is you have to earn your pick and Marvin Phillip might have been in terrific form in training–although Phillip hasn’t played domestic game in over a month while Jan is saving in Honduras.
But Tyrone over Boatswain after one bad game? Tyrone isn’t even a real centre forward.
So to be devil’s advocate . . . . if he had played the team that best serves each person’s opinion (as posted), and in so doing won the game, are we saying that TT football would been in good stead?
Brian, I have no problem with the choices. I’m just looking at the thinking behind it. For instance, Abu Bakr, Mekeil Williams, Sheldon Bateau, Carlyle Mitchell, Daneil Cyrus are all talented central defenders. So when the coach decides we say it is his preference or maybe someone is showing in training.
Now if he uses a left winger in central defence, then that is another matter.
Lasana Liburd but my point is that all of this discussion is pointless! We will not won regardless to the choices because our football institutions and administration are horribly dysfunctional. Look at my earlier post. These lamentation ware useless. What results should we reasonably expect. Go back more than one year ago I said we will not qualify
Fair point Brian. The real problems here happen well over the head of the coach.
Lasana Liburd I hear you on the thinking behind the choices. If his argument is that he is searching for a striker then shouldn’t he have more strikers in the squad from which to choose. Spain’s world cup winning squad had so many quality midfielders that they started games without true strikers. Once you know where your strength is and where goals can come from then you can craft a game plan. I really dont think our centre backs need to be babysitted by other centre backs. How can he ever make them feel confident enough to exceed their quality?
In all normal countries, the coach would resign.
Willis Plaza cant hit the sea while standing on the shore
Lawrence is good at talking what is needed. He doesn’t know what he’s doing.
Jeron I feel they need d boss himself Isaiah Hudson
Steupss
Indeed bro
“Fixing” the TTFA administration has to be prioritized. Once that is done then put processes that are efficient and effective in place. From development programs to scouting to recruitment of coaches, to field conditions, to league standards…it is all in a shambles. Hiring a new coach in this mess is a bandaid for a gun shot wound in my opinion.
We have been playing with this Football Cancer for tooooo long with the same results.Hold a referendum , reorganise and fix the damn thing once and for all.Too many priveleges to bad coaches,bad administrators,bad player selections and just persons with evil intent for clubs,friends,children of friends and hangerson.
The reason y the team failing is because of d selection process ,to much great local talent get over Lok ,
People keep talking about Fenwick. What are his coaching credentials? I genuinely don’t know. I know he was an England international. And I know he had a stint with Central but beyond that coaching wise I’m ignorant. But people keep saying to give him a chance. And the last time there was enthusiastic support for anybody inside of here that person was DJW and we see how that turned out so I have to ask about Fenwick.
Wikipedia: “Following in the footsteps of many former players, Fenwick decided to try a managerial career. In 1995, he replaced Jim Smith as manager for Portsmouth. After an underwhelming first full season in charge, where the club only avoided relegation on goal difference, an improved second season saw the club miss out on a play-off spot by just one place, and they also eliminated then-Premier League Leeds United from the FA Cup. A dire third season cost Fenwick his job however, and he left with the Club bottom of the Division One table….”
Thereafter, he came to Trinidad and has been one of if not THE most successful coach in the Pro League. And in between he had two or disastrous stints at foreign clubs. But on each of those occasions, the club was in a mess financially or going through a take-over.
So his judgment in choosing gigs is spottier than his actual coaching.
The funny thing is his critics always point to his foreign flops and ignore that he out-coaches the locals right here and would surely be always under consideration for that reason.
Also he got to third season as head coach at Portsmouth in then England second division and most of the other candidates don’t even have as much on their own CVs.
Nothing against Fenwick… but if we’re going to use clubs being in a mess financially as justification for poor performance, then every pro league club coach can make the same argument.
But that’s the problem… there won’t be consensus on anyone other than a foreigner with outstanding credentials.
Chabeth, I gave you as much info as I could. I agree with you eh. But I’m just giving the info that I feel either party (friend or foe) might come on thread to add if I left it out.
As long as this current ttfa is here Fenwick will never be given the national coaching job. How quickly people forget about his Jabloteh side that dominated the local scene. This side consisted of many of the 2006 players that represented us at the world cup. Syd Gray, Whitley, Cornel Glen Kelvin Jack….
I think the coach would need some players to pass the ball sensibly to each other as well.
try OWTU Roget the best striker in Trinidad.
Since the sacking of Ian Hart the team moral is at the lowest point the selection of players is poor the systems Lawrence has try is not working and the problem start from the Administration all the down to the players we are going backwards
Dennis u need to go y ppl so blind give Terry fenick d dammn job and get djw out of there plz it hurts as a die hard tnt fan to see dis kind of football all d rest of teams can play wid two and three players up top except us only one stupid play down d wings an hope dat lone striker gets d ball an wen dem teams lock down d flanks we game done an d other teams thread thread until dey wip we like donkeys
Brent Bennett not only that he wasn’t experienced for this level of football… there’s no quality in that team and whenever i say this ppl get vex…that team NOT GOOD!!! I’m not disputing there needs to be improvement in many other areas…admin etc…. but we don’t hold our players accountable at all… THEIR ATTITUDE, LACK OF PROFESSIONALISM, LACK OF PATRIOTISM, BIG PLAYER MENTALITY AND WINE AND JAM MENTALITY NEEDS TO BR ADDRRSSED TOO!!!
You’ve always indicated this.
Brent Bennett imagine after the Jamaica friendly which was about ONE WEEK BEFORE A CRUCIAL QUALIFIER… a player on de avenue in Frankies liming… REALLY???? Them fellas too big for this game boi and they will never like me…well they don’t have to becoz one like me I running yuh and calling yuh out as a big shithound… their mentality is what makes them even morw SHITTY!!!
Bass if a player was at a liming spot a full week before a qualifier, I don’t see that as a crime.
A crime is not paying them on time.
I didn’t say that anticipating that you’ll see that as a crime anyway… EVERYBODY’s “agenda” is different…
Bass Cleff I couldn’t agree with you more in terms of agendas.
I knew you would…
Especially when one listens to the biased filth we call media coverage these days…
Well I’m not sure what you’re referring to there… But ok.
Kool
I saw this team under Hart vs Mexico when they drew 4-4 …nobody telling me that that team not good …but ….here are the common denominators …. if your leaders of the team is weak your team will wilt under pressure…. the 2006 team had leaders and their mindset was right …now we look to Joevin….. Molino (immature kids) ……drop our veterans (boucard) and chastise our Captain constantly ….. criticize changes to improve results ….. as much as I didn’t want to admit it … mentally we were never gonna be ready for something like this (when things get tough it easier to quit) and it simply played out that way …
Interesting how Dennis did not attribute any blame to himself and his coaching staff. I’m not calling for his head as yet, but he needs to own up and take responsibility for our team’s abysmal performance. Lasana – I find yuh does go real easy on Dennis. You were all over the Belgium, but have been giving Dennis ah bligh:-)
???
I agree that he should have held his hands up and taken some of the responsibility. I don’t think I have been THAT easy on him though.
What? Seriously Lasana. Compared to the Belgian? Lol
Carlos the Belgian lost his only two qualifiers at home to Suriname and Haiti. Hard to put a positive spin on that.
You creating chances however when you lose the ball the defencive part of your game horrable you left the back flat an the central defender left alone in 1v1 situation where an attacker on a sast break single handedly destroyed your back line not one tried to give up a professional foul example pull him down what ever it took one will remember the Costa Rica game when the defender was pulling at our striker look at the other games the kind of tackles to ensure you stop a soft goal heart and soul .
So you would have given up a ‘professional foul’ in the 39th, gotten a red card and play the rest of the game with 10 men?
Well said .
I am not blaming Dennis one bit. I blame the people for putting Dennis in a situation where he could never have been successful. I said when he got hired we gave up on the Hex because Dennis simply is not experienced enough for this level of football.
He applied for the job !!! It was not like he was seconded by his employer
Because you apply doesn’t mean you should get hired. He was an assistant coach and was never a head coach but we hired him as the head coach of the team in the Hex? Again, my issue is not Dennis, it’s the clowns that hired him.
He was the wrong man for the enormous challenge we were dealing with. We needed a more experienced coach. Dennis would have been a good option for a situation like now, where we no longer have a fighting chance to qualify and we need to rebuild.
100% agree Carlos Lee….
In restrospect – we should have stuck with Hart. I honestly feel we had a better chance of qualifying with him. The Jones and Molino shenanigans was the turning point that led to our eventual demise.
It was. Interesting that you bring that up. But those types of things destroy team chemistry.
The turning point was the hiring of DJW who in his very first act almost caused a player strike. And who then undermined Hart by walking into team session and asking players to accept game that their coach had rejected.
Is it any wonder that discipline started to ebb away after that?
We might need to go back even further to identify the turning point lol. It was when JAW took all the millions generated from the successful Germany 2006 campaign and left the TTFA in the red. More than10 years later we still in the red and can’t provide our teams with the dollars needed to prepare them properly:-)
Carlos Lee that is true about JAW. But it was also true that T&T were unbeaten in this WCQ campaign when DJW took office. And we had played the USA already and Guatemala away.
D people who put DJW in power an still continue to allow him to act as President like it so…if they were really concerned bout TT football…they wud have seen what u now said an wud have gotten rid off DJW…an elect an interim President….is dat constitutional?? Why shud I ask dat question when d President doh even uphold d constitution
Lasana Liburd is that factual or is it interpreted that way?
Kurtwyn is what factual?
Lasana Liburd the turning point of the team that was already on a downward slide and had its discipline problems under Mr Hart!So I am asking is it a factual statement to say that DJW hiring was the turning point ?
Kurtwyn nobody could possibly say with certainty. I’m giving an opinion and explaining how I arrived at that conclusion.
Point taken
Honestly, I find all these lamentations to be hollow, expected, unavoidable etc. We should not have expected to win. We did not do the things we need to do to win. Our country as a whole is not set up for success – no plan, no strategy, no process, no accountability, no anything that matters – then we want to win? Does DJW have a plan or a real care? Who is he accountable to? How does his board assess competence for – administrators, coaches, etc? We joking and jokey! I’ve been beating this drum for the last several years – no plan; no results.
D.L you search the UK ??
A striker ? With the kind of soft goals you giving up at the back wow .
Time to chop and change . Dennis didn’t get a reaction from his players for the 2 most critical qualifiers . John Williams has to go above all but we all know that won’t happen with his leeches keeping him in power
Time for a new coach and new leadership at the executive level. DJW has done nothing of any consequence as the person tasked with the development of our football. As for Dennis, I think that he will be a good coach eventually, but perhaps this role was a bit too much for him to handle right now.
He looking for a man like you on top Andrew Adrian Buggz Bws
Wah u putting me on bai ?
When a team plays bad, it’s the players that the Coach chose, the game-plan the Coach chose, the training implemented by the Coach, subsititions made by the Coach, it is the belief that the Coach imparted, the motivation of r he Coach.
It is the Coach.
A page from the political playbook …Dennis Is a national hero ,but doh play Jesus my brother ,RUN while Belgium needs ur services .hosanna today crucify him tommorow
Dennis boi… give Terry Fenwick de wok nah! Maybe then we’ll hear and read nothing negative about the coach… ONLY then we’ll probably admit that our players are mediocre “at best”… see nothing wrong with wining low in Frankies becoz we scored the lone goal agsinst Jamaican ONE WEEK BEFORE A CRUCIAL QUALIFIER… then again Dennis it’s your fault for real yes coz maybe if we had a first world coach we might do the right thing!
I agree with giving Fenwick a chance…a good coach could take a goalkeeper and make him a goalscorer
Tell me something… what happened to the last team Terry Fenwick coach during his tenure in Belgium??? I don’t know eh that’s why I’m asking… Lasana Liburd you may have those stats… can you enlighten us???
Bass Cleff we don’t cover the Belgian league or any other foreign league.
You can write a letter to the editor and if it isn’t libellous, we will publish.
Hmmmmmm… okay maybe he can publish it here himself??? What you think???
you can ask him
Whilst i understand you don’t cover “any foreign league” but what about coaches who are involved in football locally and have worked or are currently WORKING abroad??? You gave us stats on Santfeit (probably spent that wrong anyway) but yeah…
Ok kool ihu… yeah maybe I should ask him… thanks tho… have a great day…
Bass, I gave stats on Dennis Lawrence too. And I would have given stats on Terry Fenwick if he got the national coaching job.
So you think that I should focus my time on one coaching gig of a man who is not coaching any team right now–let alone a national team?
Thanks for the tip eh Bass. And any coverage would have to mention his coaching record in T&T as well.
Yuh never know… try me
One day when it becomes relevant. It is not a priority today.
Ihu… priotities… priorities…
What is your opinion of Fenwick, Lasana Liburd?
Dominic, my opinion is that he has a good football brain (based on some of his tinkering as coach like his novel use of players like Marvin Oliver, Elton John and Jamal Jack), he is a really good motivator (which is why Maylee had him in her shortlist for women’s coach and the men’s players asked for him to be considered to replace Saintfiet) and is good at spotting and bringing through young talent (Hyland and Bateau are two of many players who debuted as teenagers with him).
Now his record in CONCACAF at club level is spotty. Think he had at least two bites at that cherry with Jabloteh and didn’t really produce anything special–but I can’t remember the games either. So he can’t walk on water or anything.
I definitely think he is capable of adding something once the players respond to him.
Lasana ok….Everything ends up in inflexible camps. It’s reasonable that if DL could be given a chance without experience, he should be in the conversation, especially since we don’t really have a wide pool. Jamaica is doing relatively well with Withmore. Discipline seems to be the issue from DJW down.
Bass Cleff you shudda asked me about Fenwick short lived coaching stint in Belgium eh. Them really good yes
Terry never coached in concacaf to my recollection
James, Jabloteh played in CONCACAF competition for at least one season with Terry.
I’m not so sure inno bro I know they qualified with him but earl jean coached in concacaf, same thing happened with central
They were there a few times though James. So I expect that he coached at least once. But I’m not sure.
In 2004 vs Chicago Fire beating them in Trinidad but in the return leg Jabloteh were beaten. I think Jabloteh won the game in T&T 4-1
Coaches must understand failure is theirs
Steups…
(To every single thing he said.)
He blaming everything under the sun, but himself !!!
Is he wrong about needing a striker though?
If he was Sincerely honest, he would not have accepted the post…NO EXPERIENCE
Ian, he isn’t wrong about the striker thing. We knew that for sure. He really should include himself in the blame game though.
It can’t be that I am a brilliant coach when we win and the players are crap when we lose.
Although I don’t honestly think he feels that way. I think he might have just answered questions put to him and didn’t think of the importance of taking personal responsibility at the time.
Stuart Charles of DJW and W Connection was the Asst Coach?If so the DJW plan worked to have always have him on board!!! Imagine coaches from other teams being always marginalised under DJW.Who is the head of U13 elite programme?What head coach experience did Dennis have internationally or anywhere before?Sad state of affairs.PLEASE provide answers as i am not surprised at the results
That’s fair
What he really meant to say is .. We need men who could trap pass shoot tackle run head (anything I miss add here….) To compete.. When I get those players then judge me as a coach.. Not my fault…
Ian R Briggs then he should not have taken the job. So his judgment is at fault.
Ian R Briggs what was Sol Campbell imput ???? Did he add value ?
Oh is it just only me that knew that from the onset from day one that we were going nowhere……
Trini Don screen girls for the boys when dey go boat ride? not sure to be quite honest
Lasana Liburd We know this (and not only his judgement by the way…coach a club with players you selected and see day in and day out vs coaching a national team (which has a different set of selection criteria and only having players for a few days) is two different beast.. … I was just interpreting what Dennis wanted to say…. hehe
Ian ??
Lasana Liburd Hey he applied (probably told to do so becuase he would get the wuk…trini style nah) and they CHOSE him.. he didnt have to take it, but if you are ambitious you know opportunities like this will not come around very often if at all… Dennis now has national team coach of a team that was in a qualification process for WC.. that bolsters a resume in more ways than 1… He for all intent and purposes is now a NATIONAL TEAM coach that can be hired because he has experience.. +1 for Dennis….. salt for everybody else.. 🙂
Trini Don, de question is why was he offered it in de first place? Why would you hire a rookie coach and two rookie assistant coaches to turn around a World Cup Qualifying campaign?
Very good question Nigel Myers, which i have no answers !!
Trini Don Pay day…. lol
