I was not a big Porters fan, but he did have some measure of success with the team. Someone on the forum mentioned that his downfall was that he did not know how to handle the starboys(Dwight and Latas). Maybe true, I don't know. But I pay my respects to his family. Condelences to the former TT coach. God(Jah) bless!!!!!

Actually, he has the best record of any of our coaches.

Those 43 games are including matches against clubs (Fluminense, Botafogo, America FC, Charlton Athletic, Millwall, Stevenage Boro, Plaza Amador, and W-Connection). The 35 games are strictly Internationals.

Very, very sad news.

I really liked Porterfield as a manager and as a person.

RIP.

Never knew that Porterfield made such an impression as a player...

RIP Porters....

What a pity it too several more years before Yorke and Latapy could accept the responsibility of stardom. Our best years were wasted. Thanks Ian, you did your best! Rest in peace

I don't know the guy personally but know of him and judging from the results we have had under him he have to be given some credit as a Coach,to do the things he did with T&T players we really have to take our hats off to him,as always it's sad to see guys like him go and i want to say RIP Ian you served us well.

IMHO porters did a good job with the soca warriors of 00-01.

thanks for leading us to memorable victories vs. canada, panama and mexico (allyuh remember that latapy rocket in de 2nd half after mexico dominate the game in the 1st...we was a different team in de 2nd half).

RIP.

condolences to glenda & the family.
