Football, have we missed the boat?

Jamaica was booted from the 2018 World Cup qualifications after losing 2-0 to Panama. To add ignomity to that defeat we lost 2-0 to Haiti in our final game to finish at the bottom of the standings. There has been a lot of soul searching after those two defeats. It seems that every time the World Cup qualifications come around we use the same template that was used to qualify us in 1998. But it's not working and five times tried since then and five times failed should convince the authorities that they need to try another method .

Jamaica and Future Olympics & World Champs

I believe that with the almost inevitable exit of some of our most successful athletes from the sport, Jamaica will still amass a minimum of ten medals per game. I don't want to speculate on the color of those medals. I however think that we should try to get some medals from other sports to make up for any shortfalls that may occur in any competition year .
