Report: Martinez turns down RP hosting right
This is just plain stupid.
By this, I mean this report by the Philippine Star regarding PFF president Mari Martinez's giving up the country's hosting right of the AFF Suzuki Cup semifinals. Read this
He said he will play hard to get, so what if the AFF will not give in to his demand of a 50/50 split? Will he say "OK, we'll have the semifinals at home nalang."
He thinks he holds the trump card? He already gave away his trump card.
Why does he expect to have a share of the gate receipts in the second match, when Indonesia has the right to host a second match?
He said: "No matter what people say, I must have done something good during my administration for our national team to show this result. Our FIFA world ranking is going up. Playing in the Suzuki Cup semifinals is a great experience for our team. It’s good for the Philippines. I just hope people will now see the commercial value of football as a sport.”
This is just plain thick. The team is successful because of Dan Palami, who insisted that Martinez stay away from the team. Now he’s taking credit for that?
The state of the men’s senior team is good and that is because of Palami and the players.
The state of RP football is in deep shit and that is because of PFF president Mari Martinez.
The report said, “The AFF confirmed Martinez’ contention that the Philippines has no FIFA-standard football stadium. ‘None of the proposed venues in the Philippines reached the required standards stipulated in the hosting obligations of the tournament.’”
None? If they are concerned about the Stadiums qualities broadcast-wise, well the 2005 Southeast Asian Games and the AFF Qualifiers were broadcasted live, weren’t they!!!”
By they way, Mari said the players will get PFF share of the gate receipts. Now who gets the PFF share of the in stadium ads? Broadcast rights? Advertising?
Drumroll please....

pero sa totoo im hopeful but no optimistic about the result. we must admit napaka lakas ang kopunan ng indonesia. but i have complete faith sa the national team to play all out for the country.
pero, grabe, compute na kaagad ni mari ang sharing sa pinag hirapan ng mga players, this is absurd. how about sa elimation round kung san na puno ang national stadium nun laro laban sa vietnam. meron din ba share sa gate receipt ang pff?
the bottomline, ang football community ang lagi talo dito.
kayo ba di nakaka ramadam ng kurot sa paulit ulit na pagbanggit ng commentator ng word na MINNOW. ako, nanonoot ang lamig hanggang sa buto.mula pa nun tiger cup yan na ang comment sa philippine team. mabuti na lang maganda ang performance ng team at napalitan din ng papuri ang mga sinasabi nila tungkol sa laro ng kopunan.
ang rason bakit tayo minnow, minnowMISMANAGE kasi at kinuCORRUPT ang PFF!
Bilang na rin daw nya magkano ang deductions na kukunin ng PFF mula sa gate reciepts - at ang % na ibibigay nya sa players.
