Having listened to Mr. Mills, it is a shame to hear of the woes our athletes undergo in order to represent us at these major championships. Nothing short of an indictment.
These are some of the things Steven Francis talk about . Well said Mr Mills.
Then they want to say Franno is an ass. Dem a rob up di dam money ole fart dem. Whole a dem fi leggo!
What a sad state of affairs. The athletes definitely don't need such distraction.
Track is culture in Jamaica. What is going on in the country? Why are these leaders making matters of national importance about them? Who are their bosses and when will they answer to us the stakeholders?WE ARE ALL REPLACEABLE!
Somebody please explain to me why, why is it that we can’t get it together. JFF,JAAA, JOA . It is a DISGRACE as Glenn Mills said, unbelievable!!!
This is Jamaica nothing run right
Just wow! And when they deliver we act like we made them! We should be grateful they still want to represent us! Who holds these organizations accountable?
Very well stated! Facts 💯
Lucky Leon Bailey no run for us
Glad Mr Mills is speaking out cus Francis always a tek the wraps for trying to make things better for athletes. The officials want to use the money and live lavish life. The athletes and coaches are the ones doing the job and should not be skimming whilst wearing these colours. This is prevalent across the Jamaican society. Citizens need to be start holding all officials from highest to lowest level to account.
Seem like everybody is the boss! Shameless!
Sounds like the JOA needs to be audited
I couldn’t agree with you more!
I was just thinking the same thing.. We need this!
Here we go again... management immaturity... personalities... these people do not understand focus on the job... all over Jamaica we suffer because management cannot separate personalities from the job at hand. If you check it you will find the same problem in POLITICS, BUSINESS, SPORTS, EDUCATION etc... etc...
These power seeking, power hungry, and power abusers!
You got that right
I didn't know that the athletes had to deal with this madness in Jamaica. I hope it gets better soon. Those athletes deserve better from their country. Get it together people.
That exactly what happened it's a shame in we jamaican people's eye's
Glen Mills talking about the flight fiasco. Nuh di same garbage Leon Bailey a talk bout???? Wah really a gwaan wid JFF and JAAA? Somebody a rob up all di money. Hopefully Babsy can help. This is irresponsible and embarrassing.
Babsy is the boss of them all, fi har pocket most of the money going in. She sign off on all of them
@ollienelson2649IF he's not a couching member of the Team, why they must pay his airfare to ve there? TO INTERFERE WITH THE COACHING?
@@dadgerm No Government can be involved in the running of any sporting organization, that's international Law, she can't even mediate.
@@millrock78 well, this is Jamaica where laws are broken
Mercy!!!! Shame pan dem and dem fi gwey!!! Shame and disgrace!! Ricado, mi lub you lol...... You are the best analyst memba dat. Lance and Miria, you too are sweetheart.. Di people dem mek it look so bad..
Have to love Ricardo…he is simply the best!!
Personal issues seeping into the two associations and messing up the future of these athletes. It's a horrible look. Unprofessional behavior at it's finest.
It seems like a forensic accountant or four is needed immediately! To me these associations are more interested in sending non-essential people on free trips. Egos seem to be at play here. The US must be looking on in glee.
True true , USA happy right now.
@bajanzellt They all sitting around waiting on the $5.7 billion JM over the next 8 years..
That adidas so far promised to up grade the high school training facilities and national athletic facility, around the country for the next 8 years, and money to pay the athletes..
They can’t wait to get their hands on that money to mismanaged it…
It’s always the money.
Same thing Bailey a try tell you bout JFF!
Baily case is different! Ego trip! Boosted by those around him.
NO MAN NUH BIGGER THAN HIS COUNTRY!
@@boldbogle4808and still people like you refuse to listen and learn.
Some of you lot must mash up uno phone and Internet
JFF is even worse !! Millions of dollars to the Chang and Ricketts Gang with no accountability or transparency!
Football and track n field..... a wah wrong wid Jamaica
Some ppl should not be allowed to hold public office in Jamaica. Back a time and foolish, egotistic and vindictive are the words i would used to describe members of both organizations. Poor Jamaica no wonder this country cannot reach its full potential. Everybody fully dunce.😢😢😢
Really!!! this is crazy!! Been one of the top country they treat the athletes like that SMH
They don’t value athletes at all
It is an insult a disgrace these athletes are super stars and everything they want is a problem thank you Sir GLEN MILLS for speaking your mind so is not just STEPHEN FRANCIS hitting out on foolishness enough of dem man god dam it man
Thanks for the 'context' Ricardo
I like how Ricardo tells the truth . No need to beat around the bush .
Jamaica is like a JigSaw puzzle...🤔
😂😂😂that's very funny..😂 my friend said Jamaica is not a real place😮
N9 puzzle in it! Just Jig Saw!
All the sponsors who are giving their money should withhold their sponsorship or put their money in a withholding account until they can work out their differences or just outright defund the joa and find a way to fund the athletes directly or collectively.
Poor leadership in my opinion. You wait until the week of trials to talk about this?
That's Jamaica sports management bodies for you!
# Hungry fo power!
# Having Ego bigger than the sport
# Seeking more relevance than the athlete
This is just ridiculous! The JOA treats the JAA like crap, then the JAA turns around and treats the athletes like crap, what the hell is going on here? Then we have the minister of sports talking about she can’t get involve with national issues, is she not the minister of sport? Isn’t this under her portfolio? She needs to step in and correct this crap.
She cannot get involve because this violate the rules of the Olympics governing body. This same matter happened in St. Lucia and Dominica a few years ago which made the world Olympic body to tell St. Lucia and Dominica government to butt off and allow the they local Olympic committee to settle they matter internally.
Seriously? Dude most world governing bodies don’t allow government to step in on sports matters. What are you even talking about?
@@user-km4lo8zz6z
It’s a fact. I have seen it happen lots of times. The international Olympic committee likewise FIFA the UCI World Athletics just to name a few none and I repeat none allows governments to interfere in they respective sporting bodies. The souls reason for this is not to allow politicians to try and score cheap political points thereby bringing the sport into dispute. I gave you an example of Dominica. In fact just last year the government of Trinidad 🇹🇹 and the courts there tried to inferred into the TT football association. FIFA warned them any involvement of them will not be accepted they went ahead. End result FIFA placed a ban on Trinidad until the people they removed from the executive were all reinstated. They had no choice by to reinstate all because could not play any games again country neither have any football locally
@@user-km4lo8zz6z
I totally agree with the world governing bodies because politicians would use sports as a tool to try and score all kinds of cheat political points.
@@user-km4lo8zz6zDude if you don’t have any thing new to bring step out. I am only saying she is the minister of sports of Jamaica. She can’t bring the two parties to a common resolution to deal with the issue at hand?
I know several persons that have been trying to reach the JAAA and have not been successful so I guess it’s being reciprocated. Also this is something that should’ve been sorted out from latest January haha
That’s a Big joke $40 a day smh 🤦♂️ Olympics
$40 USD...They are going to Paris so that's like $35 EURO and Paris is very very expensive.
This is so so sad. Uno come in like one patty shop
Ricardo, I have always held you in high regard, and it hasn't changed.
You spoke recently about transparency, so here we go.Lack of transparency +lack of transparency =animosity, egos, and one upmanship.
We are our worst enemies, and then people criticise Franno when he speaks.
I am also abit conflicted about the Minister saying she can't get involved, so who are these bodies answerable to?Mars and Jupiter mek it mek sense or mi fool.What a tangled web,see here Jamaica,Jamaica, Jamaica not a real place!!Then these same people going to tek plane pack up di place in Paris and revel in de glory of whatever success we achieve,all about the photo opts.
Once again franno is looking like a genius truth teller. Incompetent leadership is slowly killing our beloved track and field kmt
Nuh the some of the same things Leon bailey a complain about in JFF?
These bodies should settle their differences and take care of the athletes. They are the ones suffering
How did people from Mars get appointed to positions in Jamaica's sports, in general? Seriously, if they are from Jamaica and not from Mars, would these issues (mainly "where is the money") continue to exist? It is expected that if a person seeks a position in the JOA or JAAA, it is because they want to do good for "their country". But that never seems to be the case. Now, If Donald Quarrie has become a part of the problem, it would suggest that this Cult is far more dangerous than could be imagined. They shouldn't continue to underestimate the will of the Jamaican people. Mr. DQ and others must understand that they can be DQ'ed.
They want to kill the Golden Goose.
@StGCfLife
If it wasn’t these athletes there wouldn’t be any of these Organization around..
Utter disgrace to the people who are waiting to see there stars and upcoming stars and these athletes who have trained so hard
Why is it that SPORTS MAX did NOT have a live interview with the head of these TWO associations???
Ricky there is a formula the IOC uses for qualifying athletes to determine the number of officials and administrators that can get accreditation for the team. The size of the team determines the amount of officials and administrators can go. Remember no track and field athlete has qualified yet, only swimming, judo and diving have already qualified. So the JAAA can indicate what they want but when you punch that in the calculator on the registration system, the formula that you have no control over applies.
Check and see if any body is taking the Money for them selves.
That exactly what is happening it's a shame in we the people's eye's in Jamaica to see things like this
Bless up everyone glen mills have set the big stage and prove it to the world the committee should come together and get the financial situation taken care of Jamaica is the best in the world
JAA seems to be in a tizzy with everybody!
Maybe a Gofundme should be open where we contribute to the athletes development as Jamaicans..cuz boi every sporting year these drama unfolds
Not right. They get a lot of sponsorship. The associations heads simply pocketing the money. Jamaica track is a powerhouse, you’d be surprise if you knew how much money is donated . JA too corrupt .
Where’s that stadium in the drone shots?
"Why is there so much chaos within these professional organizations? It's truly a disgrace on a global scale! We need to focus on the bigger picture for the Olympics, which is not about these unprofessional and unethical individuals. It's about the extraordinary dedication and sacrifices made by the athletes to proudly represent their country, Jamaica."
That sponsorship money is going around in the corrupt pockets.
That is why they wont jump pon the Adidas deal.
Let's send messages to Minister Babsy Grange. This is a disgrace, Mr Gail needs to go.
Why should Mr. Gayle go? Please explain.
@olivegallmore6665
I think she said Government cannot get involved the only thing she could do is advise them to get it together..

Mr Gale don’t seems to be the problem from every report, frano said he is trying his best but it’s the people around him are in experience in some cases…
@@DavidThompson-qt3riexactly, what are we missing?
She was sitting right there.
Only in Jamaica you find "officials" behaving as if they're athletes! THEY MUST GETVTHIS, TGEY MUST GRTVTGAT, AND THEY ARE MORE IMPORTANT THAN THE ATHLETES!
ABSOLUTE POWER CORRUPTS ABSOLUTELY!
Wow, even Liberia has a higher ratio of coach/officials to athletes for the Olympics.
Now I know why some Jamaican track athletes switched allegiance back in the day. These organizations are biting the hand that literally feeds them. I don’t blame Elaine and others for being all about their contract money if this is what they have to deal with. I am Canadian and the fact that Canada is sending more support personnel while having a smaller team and less medal contenders is disgraceful.
Plain nonsense 😮😮😮
How many support team are they sending only 4 ?
They better send a jumps coach like what ricketts was saying because our jumpers are doing extremely well they need a support personnel
Support team of 4?!? Come on now..JOA wants a support team of 14 but JAAA asking for 17 and rightfully so. JOA are ridiculous!
It’s a damn shame 😢😢😮😮
This doesn’t look good on Jamaica.
I see why a lot of athlete's switched allegiance, especially those ones who are representing Bahrain. They are probably getting treated like kings, even when they lose. This is more than embarrassing to hear.
Corruption Corruption Corruption
Based on Ricardo's assessment, I'm gathering that the big egos & personal grudges between the heads of both the JOA & the JAAA is standing in the way of the T & F athletes best interests. SMH
FOOLISHNESS!! ALL a di money fi spend pon di GOLDEN GOOSE - Track & Field. A deh so wi strong.
From all the facts narrated above,the international Olympics Association, or world Athletics,need to do a real swift forensic audit,and put all the crooks in jail,they're squandering and mismanaging the funds,and treating the Athletes like crap.
I hear that
So what does the sports minister have to say about this atrocity??? Bwoi oh Bwoi , dis ting a gwaan long time and it needs to stop.
Ricardo, you are right.. Some axe 🪓 a grind between persons at the top of both JAAA and JOA... dress 👗 some of those so-called men should wear.. struggling to find common ground on issues.
Ok so what im getting from this is because the presidents of both the JOA and JAAA have difference the JOA are withholding funds towards the athletes so that it looks bad on the JAAA sides ?......please somebody correct me if im wrong and if it is so why are you these people messing up one of the only food legacy Jamaica have going for us ...whyyyyyy?????
Politics at work here. Don't be fooled.
Very well said
MRs Grange need to put some government money into fixing the long jump pit. The sand is too thick and needs replacement, and the long jump board and run up area are in deplorable condition. A athlete was injured at Champs last year after jumping into the pit after it had rained.
WHERE IS THE MONEY FOR THE ATHLETES??? THIS IS BS!!!! I WANT TO HELP!! SICK A UNNU!!!
Can you please sit down and have a discussion about what needs to be done.This is Jamaica and track and field.Will you all get it together.
There is much much more to this story than what is being said.
Is it that the JOA lacks adequate funding? JA $200M translates to US $1.3M. Not a lot of money in the big scheme of things. Time to see the numbers JOA, so there can be more clarity.
Ricardo I said before drew on ur great insights .. it is shameful that these grown people don’t know to conduct themselves … sad .. smh
How many Olympics have we had?? How many years does it take to prepare for the Olympic? How do we end up in this predicament 4 days before trials? We are so late and I pray we wake up and realize what time of day it is!! SMH
All of them should be fired and replaced. It appears as if there is too much nepotism and cronyism involved in both the JOA and the JAAA. Someone should audit the organization’s books and budget to determine why the bill cannot be paid. The Minister of Sports, Olivia Babsy Grange should interfere and intervene in the best interest of the athletes. It is so sickening to see how Jamaica’s phenomenal athletes is being held hostage by leaders who are NOT in service to others but only seem to serve themselves and their own interest and agenda.
These people whoever they are need to go. They completely hinder progress.
Corruption is ruining the entire country.
Please explain?
Men/boys; Humility/pride; Professional/unprofessional; Unity/division; Cohesiveness/antagonism. Step up please, athletes well-being first!
What is the role of Babsy Grange, the sports minister, in this mess?
The fact that DQ can't confirm or deny the claims before the Trials speaks volumes about the politics at play here. I also believe that with what is at stake and with a few weeks to go before the Games, a proactive Minister would have convened a meeting with both parties and mediate same until a solution is achieved. There seems to be alot of ill feelings between the main players in the JAAA and JOA.
Come apply for US citizenship we welcome all atheletes and we sponsor you
This type of mess draws negative attention to and meddles with the minds of the athletes.
This is embarrassing! Track and field is by far our most successful sporting event. This should never be happening. The country benefits even at the level of tourism due to track and field. There must be a way to secure corporate sponsors. Having their brand represented on team jerseys or newscasts whenever the team is mentioned etc.
But this constant inability to manage and represent our athletes at the administrative level comes across as an inability to lead in our basic affairs. Almost as though we can’t get along for the good of the country. Just resolve it, this too embarrassing and reminding me of the Bailey saga all over again.
Those big boys are not grown up enough to act professionally in spite of personal differences. Shame Shame Shame
The person he should talk with, sits right beside him
J.O.A executives stealing some of the donated $$$ among them self smfh.
Babsy, yes, you should and must intervene. JOA and JAAA all pocketing the money at the expense of these brilliant athletes. Dem a gwaan like a dem a run n a do field events. Such a shame!!! Fiyah dem Rass!!! Cho
They had four years to prepare and now they don’t have enough money. However there’s money for the officials.
This dirty laundry shouldn’t be aired now. I haven’t even heard any good news from the press release. Is the stadium sold out? Will we get live results? Is the entry list published? Give us some good news from the press release.
Come on heads of JOA & JAAA. It's beyond time for you all to get your acts together. This is not about you all! This is about the athletes & ultimately about Jamaica 🇯🇲
Paris is one month away! Work it out quickly or step aside! The world is watching. It's not a good look 😕
I'm happy the world is watching. Maybe they will feel a little bit embarrassed and do better.
I want to hear from The Sports Minister on this totally unacceptable state of affairs.
Government cannot interfere in local sports association. It is not allowed by world governing bodies. This also applies to football
40usd per day in one of the most expensive city in the world is untenable.
Unuh wah nyam smady family vacation money fi send official go a Olympics?? Unuh mad. 😂😂
BaThe toe of who’s aka kok measuring contest smh.
What is the JOA for please? The name says Olympic so why is it behaving like a fassy towards the prospective members of the Olympic team.?
It is members of the JOA that put Chris Samuda in his presidential position....the relationship mash up.
So much super stars so much up coming super star athletes bigger contract offered an we struggling to find the necessary personnel for these people doctors massage personnel we are a brand in it self as Mr MILLS said people are turning in there graves
Oh bad blood between these men which is causing issues for our athletes Jamaica ring patty shap
Well id Sir Mills. THE MONEY IS THERE!!!!!!!!! It deh deh so I do not know why they are gate keeping. DEM NEED DI STOP HOLD UP DI PPL DEM MONEY!!!!!! They money is THERE AND WE ALL KNOW This is male ego because one does not like the other! But IT IS NOT ABOUT
The only things sport management does in jamaica is buy pot cover fe mek noise with.
Mighty GOD, this is appalling, somebody needs to be held accountable. The powers that be needs to step up and get this thing in order. For such a brilliant track and field country what the Guru just said tells a story. Sad
First of all this os a public quarrel. Things like these are basic management issues which should be handled behind doors then reports issued.
Of course they will hog up the per diem money and spend it on the athletes at the games asnif its their own
What does the JOA do with the Monies they receive. Olympics isn't every year so JOA should be putting everything in place to cover our athletes. Our athletes are our priority. JOA get it right. If this story isn't right, what's your side? Please all take self out of this. Please be guided and reminded that the athletes need the support systems in place
Await the JOA's side of the story. Trust Dem not advocating to carry JAAA personnel on a trip to Paris. Otherwise the requests sound reasonable for now.
Both of them pocketing the money
What an all around mess!!
I agree with Mr Mills the athletes need at least 2 more doctors and physio therapists.
These will enhance the performances of the athletes
Jamaica don’t be surprise with the results… suh when Jamaican athletes guh represent another country don’t get vex. Food haffe eat.
