The visit of the England football team and the tremendous response from the public confirms yet again the potential of football ,in particular, and sport on a whole to unite the nation commented T&T Pro league chairman Larry Romany.

Romany said that the TTFF,past and present footballers,coaches,referees,volunteers and Mr.Warner deserves kudos for the fact that football has survived and thrived in its one hundred year history.

"By any stretch of imagination,Sunday 1 June is a special occasion.It is one that I expect the players to cherish .I look forward to the Soca Warriors producing a great performance"said Romany

Romany,who is also the national Olympic chief,believes that the T&T Pro League is well represented in the team squad selected for the international friendly at the Hasely Crawford Stadium.

"The TT Pro league players and clubs have been given every opportunity by Trinidad and Tobago head coach Francisco Maturana.It is a good test for everyone,players,coaches ,fans and administrators.It is not every day that England comes to T&T to play football" added Romany.
