Trinidad & Tobago Football History

TRINIDAD soon may have the opportunity of witnessing an English international football team in action on the greens in Port of Spain.

Recently the T.F.A. Council authorised Mr. W. Vincent-Brown and Mr. Eric James, manager and secretary respectively of the T.F.A. touring team, to negotiate for the visit of a team here in 1954, or the year after.

Mr. James said in a Press conference yesterday that Jamaica, British Guiana and Barbados will be invited to subscribe to this potential tour.

But whether they decide to collaborate in such a movement or not, Mr. James assured the Trinidad Football Association proposes to conduct the tour alone, should negotiations prove successful.
