Under 48 Hours before John Barnes' first game in charge
of the Jamaica side 3 players come to blows in what was a heated
training session. Jamaica take on Sven Goran Erikssons Mexico tomorrow
night in the CONCACAF World Cup Qualifiers.
A small crowd had gathered to watch the last training session prior to
the must win game, and cheer on there national side at the National
Stadium last night. The training session was made open to the public as
a thank you for there support over the past year. The training session
consisted of the teams splitting in 2 and having a semi competitive game
against each other. John Barnes' would look on in dismay as a fight
broke out between Stoke City's Ricardo Fuller and Damion and Demar
Stewart.
The fracas came about following Demar Stewarts hard lunge on Fuller,
Ricci took offense to this and showed his displeasure with a few strong
words, and before John Barnes knew it punches where being thrown. Its
not clear who threw the first punch, but a much disgruntled Ricardo
Fuller least the field following the incident and suggested that he was
finished for the evening.
Many Stoke fans will feel angry about this article, including myself. We
always worry about the fitness of our players when they go away on
international duty and to be reading about a player lunging in during a
training session is not encouraging, seeing as how last time Fuller was
away he came back injured.
Towards the end of the session is is reported that both Damion Stewar
and Ricardo Fuller made a gesture to the support stating it was just
there Passion that got the better of them and team Morale is still high
and nothing personal was meant by the incident.Elsewhere former
Stokie Graham Kavanagh joins Carlisle on a months loan from Sunderland,
and Marcus Hall has been award a Testimonial by Coventry in respect of
his 276 appearances including two league goals for the club he played
for both before and after his Stoke City days, Well Done Marcus. |
