Kesnol Lamour\u2019s impassioned plea on his Facebook page paints a picture of a stifled Haitian football scene. The responsibility lies heavily on its leaders.<\/p>\n
The replacement of Dadou with a FIFA normalization committee, instead of being a chance for bold reform by local stakeholders, has perpetuated paralysis.<\/p>\n
Postponed elections, an unelected committee, and ignored clubs: the system drifts aimlessly, comfortable in its inaction, obedient to FIFA but deaf to the country\u2019s needs.<\/p>\n
The waste is profound.<\/p>\n
World-class talents like Belgrade send strong signals of belonging, but are they heard? The national team, instead of being a meritocratic showcase, seems reserved for a \u201cclan\u201d of lesser players, sidelining serious competitors.<\/p>\n
Quality coaches like Gon\u00e7alves, who succeed abroad with our female players, are driven away by our disdain.<\/p>\n
This \u201cnormalization\u201d mirrors the flaws of Haitian politics: illegitimate, ineffective, frustrating.<\/p>\n
Its members, citing their interim status and lack of resources, shirk all ambition. Their only urgent task should be to organize credible elections and step aside, making way for a legitimate executive committee, elected by and for Haitian football.<\/p>\n
The potential is there, and so are the players. As Kesnol Lamour says, \u201cpeyi a p ap janm rete konsa\u201d (the country won\u2019t stay like this forever). Let\u2019s free football from its suited gravediggers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
