Heads up Elaine, Star girl. It's not the end of the world. No listen to critics. Even when u give u life u no do nothing for some ppl. May God keep u safe . Get well soon. ❤❤
Elaine is one of Jamaica greatest athletes, every respect to her! But I can’t understand five Olympic gold with a program. I can’t see why you would leave and try to go to a different program when you already having success where you’re.
@@johnmarris7976 well! There’s an old saying that says in order to make money you have to spend money 💰. With all the success she already achieved with Stephen Francis program and you end up having to pay little bit more to stay on top. I don’t see the problem there.
@@rickordoeast7610 but no world titles and nothing in between. It’s funny how people don’t realize that it’s not normal to peak ever 4 years. He isn’t the only coach in the world. Most of Jamaican athletes are over raced. This is why they keep getting injured. Look at Sydney McLauglin every time she hit the track it’s a world record. If Elaine had Bobby Kersee as a coach she would have the world record.
It seems after all is said and done, the business of managing Elaine Thompson's health and keeping that finely tuned Ferrari in the best possible shape can only be accomplished by MVP. They seem to be the best coaching staff for Elaine Thompson
@@nigeltulloch3720 she can always come to the states. I’m going to keep saying it until it comes to fruition. Elaine and Bobby Kersee would be record breaking.
Elaine Thompson God is still in control and He is not finished with you yet. So continue praying and pressing on. Remember when Jesus says yes no one can say no
If it's not broken, then don't fix it. I'm curious as to what will really make a person replace a coach who has brought them this far? I think it's more to it than her husband's encouragement to make such a move. Hey, it's only my opinion.
@@JETOFF For how things have now transpired it may be the wrong move for some. However! What about the principle involved, to decide to move? No right thinking human who at a young age signed an agreement, that later on discover the adverse conditions to their benefit will want to continue with such an arrangement.
@@africanwarrior8999 Yes one should be free to move in a free operating economy. Sometimes you are prevented from moving depending on how the contract is stipulated. However, sometimes you have to give up some principle to gain big in the end, because the bigger picture is worth it. There is an old saying; you have to kiss ass before you can kick it.
@@JETOFF Hence! Why so many are going to places to compromise morals and principles for vain glory, or wealth as some would have it. Our dear sister and her spouse made their decision on principle, I stand with principle regardless of out come. I applaud her for that. She has gained much from her humble beginnings, I do hope she invested wisely so further benefits can be accrued with her future🇯🇲❤️💯👍
@@africanwarrior8999 JET get that, but sometimes money is not all the answer, but reputation, achievements and cement yourself in history amongst the greats. Take Asafa Powell, although different circumstances, he will not be respected as achieving greatness in athletics like even Yohan Blake. Why? Because he had not won a single medal except bronze individually. Yes, sub10 king, break world record, which can be broken, and money of course, but will he be seen as great, JET doesn't think so. Now, Elaine was on the verge of being the greatest female (Well Shelly achieve more), but in terms of Olympic standard just like Bolt, no one has even done what they have done, setting a bar high, become an ambassador for your country. Many believe she threw away such greatness by moving from Franno.
The Jamaican government and sports faternity needs to invest more. We have too many athletes that brought so much to Jamaica not to invest more into the industry. The last major international event was 22 years ago. Why can't we host the world Relays???,
I don't think Franno was poking at ETH he was simply stating it like it is. ETH has f***ed up. Sad but true. Having left MVP and with the success she had with Shanikie, she should have cemented that relationship. Big earners will always have big expenses because they only employ the best so they cannot afford to be penny wise and pound foolish. This is what happens with inexperience or when people who are unaccustomed to a lot of money suddenly themselves in the midst of it. They want to save EVERYTHING. No notion of reinvestment in self to generate even more money in the future. Sounds horrible but it really is true. Naldo probably sees training ETH on the side, as a side-hustle because she is not a part of his club. Seems he is treating her exactly like that, a side-hustle too.
She is too up in her husband,and she has great potential but mannerism and respect goes hand in hand you dont throw away your stick and you dont cross river.
All click-baits should shut up their ungreatful mouth becuz u all acting like our athletes are iron and not human: After all Bolt & other Athletes do for our country just look how their own ppl treat them: Also we cannot compare Jamaica with other countries: We have to continue to be ourselves originally before we loose our identity: every year is different from another and we cannot win them all; we will also loose some:
Why does Franno need to put it together for JAAA when they won't even give him the respect he deserves? The respect I am referring to is the kind where his experience is tapped on. But they see him as a competitor instead. He and Mills have a databank and investment that is proven.
If Franno is so great, and was her trainer through so much success, why did she leave him? Okay, she leaves for whatever reason, but why can't she get back with him? With all that, it's possible those injuries might have happened anyway. She's just a human being, and that level of performance over several years is bound to incur wear and tear. We wish her the best going forward.
Don't results speak for themselves-so why ask the question if Fanno is a great coach. ETH by not thinking for herself allow "John-come-latelies" to make bad decisions that have proven to be detrimental to her health and career.
No one is saying she would not have been injured at MVP. As a matter of fact, she sustained many injuries at MVP. The difference was that Frano understood her injuries and was able to deal with them, so she remained competitive.
A so with some of us Jamaican just love to chat and we don't know what is happening with Elaine, Francis, husband and the other couch them,, when them come out and said this is the reason why I leave from that camp,To that camp is time enough to speculate and chat
Total agree!!! People just chat too much and keep making up stories!! Only ETH n MVP know what really happen why she leave, been 3 yrs people still a spread rumors
Ok, Cuba has some of the best doctors in the region so why would we wanna depend on the U.S.? We all see what U.S.A. Nike has tried to undermine our trio with Shaccari Richardson, no problem. Elaine left Nike and Fano vex because he’s a Nike coach. I’m not saying that he’s not one of the best coach but the method in which he used he himself says it will work up to a period of time. The worse sometimes happens for the best. Now that she has visited Germany and has gone to one of the best , please let her be. M.V.P. has been collecting money from some of the top athletes over the years. So do less talking and get the right medical team in place..
Did you listen to the interview and what Fanno said re: treatment for athletes injuries. When Bolt had his injury problems where did he go-cuba or germany??? ETH by NOT thinking for herself allow "John-come-latelies" to make her made bad decisions that have proven to be detrimental to her health and career. On the sadder side by leaving MVP she missed out on the opportunity to break at least one of the long standing records credited to Flo Jo.
@@KeithFrancis-nf8dw look at it now because of her husband she is loosing big money if they have just pay the coach and stop being too mean she mite be fine now sineing new contrats making big money and setting records now she is just spending try to find a good docter shame on the husband
France need to cool out.its about Jamaica not him.what he needs to do is help out Elaine and shut his ass up.she let him made a lots of money already. About still can made more.just shut up dont be one of they.be the best man. And help her out so she can do her thing forget pride.pride comes before a fall and after.so mr.france step up to the plate and do the right thing .he is a grown man. Think like a man and not a fool
You sound like an idiot. How can he help her if she will not allow him to help her. SHE is the one who left MVP. He is the one who brought her to greatness. And then she turned around and left. Things have only gone downhill for her since she left MVP. It’s her fault. She should have stayed. Sometimes you are chasing more money, and instead you end your career because you left a good thing behind. That is what has happened to her. How can he help her? She is the one who walked away. You fool…
She has gone pass The MVP now, did you ever heard that comment b4.After her ordinary performances of the 22' season topped off being by beaten Shac; that alone shouldve shaked her up plus on seeing how the jamaican fans were upset and pleading for her returning to the MVP. She didn't give a damn.Back then I'm certain they would've taken back BUT under one condition, kip wey hussy.
Humility and gratitude goes hand in hand . Had Elaine reflected and considered her successes as probably the second or the fastest woman in history, all because of one man, her former coach Mr. Steven Francis who clearly knows her flaws and how to manage her injuries. Had she left publicizing her successes as a sprinter was the responsibility of one man, Mr Steven Francis as such displaying humility and gratitude. She would have had a chance of Mr. Francis accepting her back. Nevertheless, she was cocky and unapologetic in stating her decision to leave (Mr Steven Francis) MVP track club. Regardless of her errors we Jamaicans want nothing but the best for her and are all still hopeful.
Elaine mess up herself ,she and her husband arguing about the coaches charging her too much money. Miss Osborne charging her $40,000 per season which i think was reasonable. Sporting coaches has to work hard to prepare top class athletes and they need to be paid. I think her husband is not good for her carrier. He's with her for her money and that's her problem.
She never see the benefits - it is ALL gone. I would tell this his issues - husband and you doing worst - down hill; she should have ask Ms. Osborne to charge base on income - percentage of what she earn totally and this would have benefit them - but husband dictates and mess her up. Need some strong remedies to clean up this - who will take her on - know here reputation with husband?
So sad. Stephen Francis is not perfect but at least it is proven that he is one of the greatest sprint coaches of all time. To replace him with your husband was stupid? Elaine was arrogant and now must receive her beat'n. That is life. Humble yuhself always.
Exactly. Say it again. She should have stayed with Coach Stephen Francis. Had she stayed with him she would have broken the world record back in the 20/21 season.
She didn’t have to stay him Francis especially if he was disrespectful. But, she should have gone with Coach Osborne or someone knowledgeable. Instead of her husband. And now this coach. Cheapest is not always better. You get what u pay for. When Coach Osborne worked with her for free and proposed fee below market rate.
Some people on here are defending Elaine and saying that Stephen Francis should help her. How can he help her if she will not allow him to help her. SHE is the one who left MVP. He is the one who brought her to greatness. And then she turned around and left. Things have only gone downhill for her since she left MVP. It’s her fault. She should have stayed. Sometimes you are chasing more money, and instead you end your career because you left a good thing behind. That is what has happened to her. How can he help her? She is the one who walked away.
Is her career destroyed? Athletics is not the only career. You can be successful on the track and still end up broke. The financial future of athletes is important. They can't sell the medals.
@@Pablo-q8f9m she should have left sooner. She may have spared her crippling injury from being overworked without physical therapy. MVP ran Elaine into the ground and her body just couldn’t hold up.
Elaine left the Frances camp the moment she came back from her victory at the Olympics. It’s probably not the fact that she left. It’s how she left. Frances heard it on social media. Gratitude is a must!
MVP takes athletes who had no money to pay coaches, they invest time and money. When they start to produce MVP need to Return on their investment. This thing is a business. When they're able to collect they're able to he others. Coaches should be paid and paid well. Unfortunately in every sports the athletes sign multimillion dollar contracts yet Coaches makes a fraction and they're the first to get fired.
We are missing the point, training is about technology with minimal human interaction, so the technicalities in dealing with certain athlete is very important. Athletes must get the best equipment and technical recovery procedures. Balam, Rajan.
The husban is a PE teacher not a coach, he wanted the money Franno was getting paid by Elaine, they wanted to keep all the money in their pocket. However if you don’t run fast you don’t make money, so be careful how you cut out the man that make you run fast. Silly greedy ungrateful dunce head move
@@MindSSetMedia3241 Your assessment is incorrect! As I gather, she tried to renegotiate the contract she had signed as a young girl, with aspiring dreams, most of which were accomplished. However this same contract as I understand was not balanced or fair to her in the grand scheme of the arrangement. Presumably the negotiations to adjust the terms of said contract could not be worked out, so she left! Everyone must be paid fairly for their work done, and no one should benefit no more than what is fair and deserving.
@@africanwarrior8999 Much a do about nothing, you have used your lofty vocabulary to explain away,but in essence, none of what you said means anything unless she is making money from her running, and that’s the crooks of the matter, at least when she was with Franno, she had money to negotiate over,you just not getting it are you, can she negotiate now, the answer is NO, because she don’t have a coach who can make her win. And you don’t make money if you not winning,so you can’t put a price on the man who is making you win,,but I bet you still don’t get the logic, You head might be as tough as Elaine’s.
If Elaine has a bad injury she cannot do anything until she recovers. That is it for now. She probably cannot make the Olympics. However, watching in top form she has to be one the smoothest sprinters. Her arm action and her leg action makes her one of the smoothest sprinters in the world. She is poetry in motion❤
@africanwarrior8999 you all over d damn place talking bout money money, she gaining money from athletics now for half of it to be taken by coach?? Get a grip of it man, Elaine made a bad move and it cost her dearly, now she cannot earn from her talent what is there to split? We would rather see her defending her titles than be out of the games FOH with your BS!
Coaching is there for everyone who thinks that they are capable or qualified to train people to run, However, not everyone has the eyes and the capability to see talent ,trained winners, Francis is indeed an excellent coache great job sir.👏❤❤❤ not to take anything away from the other coaches.
BLUF: We all have to gain experience in one way or another. Frano had similar issues with a lack of experience after leaving Wolmers. The problem is these athletes get to a certain level and start listening to outside noise. They don't think they need coaching and they get to this level purely on talent; wrong answer. Most athletes who leave their coach for another, rarely ever get back to the level they were before.
I think ETH made a wrong decision to move from MVP knowing her two back to back Olympic titles came from the camp. She was nearing the 100m WR, which I think would have come eventually. I do wish her a speedy recovery. My thoughts and prayers are with her.
Girl it sad yuh husband shud have stayed in a husband place. MJ and Phil Jackson relationship wasn’t Roses however they Won, it was the same with Koby and shaq.
People let’s have an open mind and objective discussion about this. In life we all make choices and decisions that deep down we know was a mistake but we all have to live with it. Whatever it was she felt she had to move on and I respect that and so should we all. Most of us Jamaicans tend to be a bit outspoken and overbearing in our opinions and comments especially when it comes to Elaine because for some reason they gravitate towards Shelly and that’s ok but don’t chastise the woman with all your negative comments for being the woman she is. The only time most of you remember her is when a track meet is coming up otherwise she’s irrelevant to you instead show some love and respect affection and support because when she wins our colors fly high. Wishing you a speedy recovery and hopefully we’ll see you on the track soon. Catch her if you can Road Runner beep beep 🙏🏾❤️🇯🇲
@jacksontown2224 we all love Elaine, and we want what's good for her,that's what good friends do speak the truth, Jamaicans adore her only angry at her actions
Her husband is the problem. He is too posessive and watches how her money is spent. You have toinvest to earn so to say the cost is too high was their downfall. Doubt hercontracts will be renewed without improvement.
And Elaine let her husband run her life for her from that lady married that guy she becomes the biggest loser,shelly is married no one ever heard her husband interferes,no prayer can save Elaine career unless she let her husband stop dictates her life,Jamaicans love her and wants to see her progress, she's not getting younger,can she makes the next Olympics
Fully Dunce both of them.Birds of a feather flock together. Some words she allegedly used "p hol" to the big man turned me off then I was horrified knowing she was going down the wrong deportee road. I am hurt by how she dashweh her career.
True word. That deh man look like all him want do is control her money, spend it, and control her career weh him never help create and knows nothing about. She should have stayed with Osborne as she was coming back . If she doesn’t tell her husband to back off and let her make the decisions on her body and career she might as well retire. And will end up broke with all these missteps.
Shout up and leave the Elaine alone you’ll Jamaican are too much stay out of the girl married u probably dont have an husband she don’t of to run anymore if she doesn’t want to
Words well spoken as he thought he was better than Frano because he wanted to keep all money in the Family. Shelly Ann’s husband is a man who I deeply respect because he knows what is his wife could and have been excelling without his direct interference. He stayed in his LANE as husband and biggest supporter of his WIFE and her CAREER!!
Definitely throwing words at my Queen 👑 Elaine but unfortunately she will realised that medical treatment and people understand her issue she should be around don't watch the money experience count not emotional thoughts 😮😮😮
The millions of dollars m.v.p spend on their athletes no other club apart from racer can these clubs has equipment so Elaine made a big mistake by leaving the 100m world record would have been hers
Elaine is a fool! She's amongst the best of the best who looked to threaten the 100m world record. However, her money based decisions in regard to coaching has left her career in tatters.
The Bible says pride goes before a fall a careful study of Elaine will see she want to don't here way even if it doesn't work and she is puffed up of her passed success what Elaine needs is a gd lesson in humility and she will get back on track
I love Elaine I wanted to see her defend her Olympic title but I want her to be healthy in order for that to happen she will miss 2024 Olympics and that is real sad for me
When an athlete have ankles problems that's very serious that's the main part of the body to going gear and put the pressure on the foot to lift off it just felt like something separate and cannot connect back together and thats the reason take it from me as an ex athlete
Stupidest commen I've ever read! Unfulfilled? In the history of running only 1 suspect human has ran faster and that human did not win at two different Olympics twice. Yuh foolnuh @#%#@
Bottom line is MVP has assembled a world class team and it takes money. Athletes have to be willing to give up the % of their earning required to have that team behind them. That's something Elaine didn't fully appreciate and she is paying the price. Those Ex MVP coaches don't have the resources that MVP has. In life, it cost big money to make big money. Elaine has lost more money than she saved by leaving MVP.
@samcameron5056 I think her husband is the one that manipulate her to leave mvp and he would be her coach,and the money stays in one place, so sad to see good talent goes to waste
Greed and stupidity. Want all, lose all. Greedy husband influence you to leave Francis. Making stupid decisions is NOT a test. God gave us a brain to make wise decisions. Usain Bolt never left Glen Mills. He was grateful to him. This again shows the kind of person Usain Bolt is. He is humble, respectful, appreciative and not greedy for money.
@@StGCfiLife Your point being? Could it be also the contracts signed by the two greats you mentioned were of the same accord as is alleged of Elaine? So what? It was built to advance the talents that would follow after Safa, and Sproket. Too much inconsiderate people are in our island from TOP to grung aan fram Grung to top. The degreed tief is no better than the dutty bwoy ar gal tief.
I don't 12:30 think ETH will return to her best. There seems to be sonething wrong with her psychologically. It's a pity. With a 10.54 in her belt, a 10.48 was within her reach.
@@benten6259 No it’s the fact that she has been dealing with the Achilles injury for decades. Even Franno stated she was going to a quack physical therapist. He shamed the country for their lack of medical support for their elite athletes.
Did Bolt or Yohan or Shelly-ann train in the USA and they are the greatest runners in history so what's your point u people must think b4 talk didn't Bolt went and get treated in Germany and came back home and dominate the world and is a legend.
@@jehovahrohi969 Yohan’s never came back from his injury. He is still running so he is not a good example. Usain body has paid the price he just ruptured his Achilles. Shelly Ann is an anomaly. Her type of talent and health only comes along once in a lifetime. She is like Allyson Felix. Only a few is blessed with longevity and good health.
@@benten6259 this has nothing to do with being injured. She has been injured for years. What other athletes in tack and field history only runs well during the Olympics? Never had one world title under Franno because she was injured for the three years after the Olympics.
At some point she needs to just eat humble pie and go back to The one coach that can properly manage her injuries so she can continue to break records time isn't on her side so i hope she makes better decisions in the coming year.
Typical Jamaican they show no appreciation for the person who helped them to get where they want to go when they get there they tell everyone he done nothing for me I do it all by myself I hear this all the time no one do nothing for me I do it all by myself I'm a big fan of her but she messed up her own career nobody else but her the only thing I see for her is just retirement honestly 💯🇯🇲🇺🇸🫢🫣🤗🤫🤔🤟👍
Typical of Jamaicans to want to earn more than they deserve than what is fair to both! Until greed is abated and all can be fair all around, these conversations will remain!!
Remember Shelly-Ann left Steven Francis...Why? AfricanWarrior comments about the contract these people sign with Steven. Look into that before you call anyone ungrateful.
@@patrickreid4900 Bless up yuhself my Brethren for staying informed on these subjects that are of National concern to all well thinking honest Jamaicans. More life🇯🇲❤️💯👍
To be honest our athletes' achievements are nothing less than extraordinary. They perform at a top level despite the lack of resources available to them. It's just sheer grit on their part to even compete against countries who have bottomless money.
Hypothetically,If Elaine had came to the USA and could have ran Businessfor the USA folks would have been hateful- some of the critics are hateful !! She had injuries acquired from MVP camp-- initially Frano learned how to mange so the damage was done at MVP. Secondly, mental health and stress from negative folks also impact athletic performance. Repeatedly blaming her husband. Thirdly, the issue was that Elaine wasn’t thankful to the coach Look how many folks at MVP who hasn’t advanced that much.Thus, gift and talents is also a factor in her performance in the past. It’s more than a coach , it’s the athletes God given talent and gift.
How has her God-given talent worked out for her since leaving MVP? Bolt struggled with injuries, but Mills was masterful in managing him. Elaine left Franno because she wanted to save money. Meanwhile, she has sacrificed her career. Like you, Elaine thought that her talent was enough.
Her husband is a stumbling block in her career,his coaching is not international standard,but yet he choose to coach her to keep the money in his pocket,that money is not coming anymore
@adrian-lj4py her husband must have manipulate her to let him coach her,she's so naive, I pray she can bounce back cause I love my Jamaican athletes ❤
You sound like an ungrateful person yourself, that’s why you support Elaine so whole heartedly in her move away from the man who got her to the top of the athletic world, she has talent,so why has she not continued and move to even higher heights, if she got injured at Franno,well Franno was managing her injuries and had her running at the top. You don’t make sense, you are a Franno hater.
When you are tried and proven ,There is no need for any further proof. Back to back gold in two Olympis what more do you need .Lay aside your differences.keep your eyes on the prize.
Everybody has a right to express their opinion about any decision that any of our athletes make as long as criticism is not destructive and defamatory etc etc. We also know that some of our athletes are a bit thin skinned, but truth a truth. So Elaines decision to leave MVP is personal and her business. However, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see that the she made a huge mistake leaving MVP irrespective of whatever financial issues or inconveniences were involved. As a soldier what you do is "tough it out" until youve accomplished the ultimate. Not to be disrespectful to anyone, but I do understand why ppl are so defensive in Elaine's favour. Let me explain. It is called LEGACY. Elaine was on the cusp of doing something that no woman has ever done. She was on track to accomplish something that may never be achieved in decades to come or ever at all. Win Olympics 100/200 back to back to back. Plus breaking the seemingly unbreakable 100m record. No woman in history has ever been so close to achieving these feats. This is what she walked away from. I hope ppl really understand the magnitude of the opportunity that she blew.
I am so with you. To be the woman closest to break Flo Jo’s record says “don’t change anything.” It could be you or the coach to achieve success , so why roll the dice for the spouse. Marriage is hard enough if you know what I mean.
Every senior athletes should know what is best for them given there experience overtime. Elaine situation seems unique and of such should seek help from persons who understand her injuries even if this person is Frano. It doesn't matter 'who', the results is all she should care about.
To tell you the truth! Elaine is my girl from the early stages in her career i was betting on her to become one of the best...i think she made a wrong move leaving Fano, but i can understand right hope she can understand too...my advices to her right now is to just put pride aside and call Fano ,do for me Elaine please!!! you are my Star I'm still counting on you...with love i say just do it..thank you and God bless you
No Elaine Thomson in Paris is such a boring..I love 2 c her run in Paris n break the world record in 100 n 200 meters..she is the best fmle sprinter in Jamaican..n Shelly 2..hope Elaine get well soon🙏spore love Elaine..💞
Talk trouth, as mu h as i love Elain so much i dont think she should leave Frano, but who am i to judge , bevause i dont know what was going on, only she alone could deside on that
That's what I was thinking about it's not better USA might be better but they're advancing with the equipment and doctor just see only patients of the sports world
