Barbados named their squad. I'm only familiar with Nick Blackman from Maccabi Tel Aviv

It’s sad they are missing Thierry Gale and Hallam Hope . Man I wish more Caribbean teams could take things more seriously and really  go after dual nationals. Barbados could get 3-4 key guys that would make them a very interesting and dangerous team. Like GK - Jamal Blackman, LW Mason Bennett, RW Tom Ince, CM Dru Yearwood, LB Nesta Guinness-Walker

Smart move on Bermudas part.

Suriname still hasn't moved their home match, which still surprises me.

Their domestic players have been training together since January based on internet reports. So maybe they won't call any Euro players.

If so, it should help us if it comes down to goal average

I’m sure this discussion was done to death when the draw was done, but with the potential changes to the Suriname line-up, is Group B most difficult for the highest ranked team or is it Group C because of Guatemala?

At the time of the draw it was Guatemala. Since August Suriname has realized our worst fears and leveled up to a squad, that on paper, looks better than Guatemala's.

Definitely Group C. Especially with Cuba now calling players from foreign leagues. This is the only group that us 4 deep imo.

 I haven't seen it yet.

They only named their manager, Jean-Jacqes Pierre on the 11th of March.

1) Sometimes they refer to him as Jean-Jacques Pierre and in other places as Pierre Jean-Jacques.

2) The 2nd is funny to me because his name is the Canadian French equivalent to "Tom, Dick and Harry" (the random everyman), "Pierre, Jean, Jacques".

Lol. I was going to say maybe he isn't a real person. But he has a wiki page and seemed to have a long career playing in France.
