“I think that in both games, if you go over the tapes, you would realise we were in a better position to win,” DirecTV W Connection coach Stuart Charles-Fevrier told Wired868. “That doesn’t mean Caledonia played badly; they played well. But we haven’t been taking our chances.”
Neal & Massy Caledonia AIA edged DirecTV W Connection by penalty kicks, on 21 June 2012 to lift the Caribbean Club Championship trophy and then again in the First Citizens Cup, on 28 September, courtesy a last gasp Keyon Edwards strike.
If Fevrier has anything to do with it, Caledonia’s wonderful spell would come to an end tomorrow, on Friday 19 November 2012, when two of the Trinidad and Tobago Pro League’s more artistic teams meet from 8 pm in Digicel Pro League action at the Mannie Ramjohn Stadium in Marabella.
Connection and Caledonia follow a 6 pm clash between rookies Central FC and Police FC at the same venue.
If Central and Police feel little pressure to set the stage alight, the same cannot be said of defending Pro League champions, Connection, and reigning Caribbean conquerors, Caledonia.

Caledonia is likely to resist the chance to start World Cup 2006 midfielder Densill Theobald who was due to return from Caribbean Cup duty earlier today after Tropical Storm Rafael left several Trinidad and Tobago players stranded in St Kitts.
There are question marks over the availability of Trayon Bobb, Walter Moore and Colin Nelson who are scheduled to be in action for Guyana on Sunday as will St Vincent and the Grenadines winger Cornelius Stewart while winger Abdallah Phillip is still nursing a sore knee.
Connection suffered as a result of Rafael too with Trinidad and Tobago captain and goalkeeper Jan-Michael Williams, midfield leader Clyde Leon, defender Daneil Cyrus and utility player Joevin Jones as well as Kittian midfield anchor Gerard Williams likely to be on the bench, at best, tomorrow night.
So who has more strength in reserve?
