Former Golden Jaguars captain Christopher Nurse has questioned the narrative of a transition policy within the senior men’s football program, following the lack of opportunity for local players during the recently concluded matches in 2022 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers.
This was disclosed yesterday during an exclusive interview with Stabroek Sport. According to Nurse, “The narrative of exposure and opportunity for local players was not a significant feature of these two games. Yes, there was a cameo from Omari [Glasgow] and a debut goal, but on a whole it was more of the same. [Trayon] Bobb and [Daniel] Wilson have been fixtures in the national programme over the past decade so their inclusion is of no surprise to any Guyanese fan. I believe the Technical Director needs to step forward and take the lead in the narrative being pushed to the public and refer more to selecting the best squad available and stop muddying the waters and seeking public approval with a narrative that clearly is not evident.”
