The Belgian has left his post just a month after taking it, saying the federation didn't support him in the face of upcoming World Cup qualifiers.
Just more than a month after he was unveiled as Trinidad and Tobago's head coach, Tom Saintfiet announced his resignation Wednesday.
The Belgian manager oversaw defeats to Suriname and Haiti in Caribbean Cup qualifiers earlier this month, leaving the Soca Warriors out of the 2017 Gold Cup. And with World Cup qualification matches looming in March, the coach has left rather than face potential embarrassment at the hands of stronger teams than Trinidad and Tobago's Caribbean rivals.
