Nigel Pierre

{{short description|Trinidad and Tobago footballer}} '''Nigel Pierre''' (born 6 February 1979 in [[Saint Joseph, Trinidad and Tobago|Saint Joseph]]) is a football striker from [[Trinidad and Tobago]], who manages [[Westside Superstarz]].

==Career== "Pistol" Pierre as he was once known due to his fearsome shooting ability had a 3-month loan spell at [[Bristol Rovers F.C.|Bristol Rovers]] in England in the 1999–2000 season but, after impressing, the move was unable to go through due to work permit problems. Former [[San Juan Jabloteh]] boss [[Terry Fenwick]] again tried to take him to England to play for [[Northampton Town F.C.|Northampton Town]] but once again Pierre was denied as he had only played 73% of [[Trinidad and Tobago national football team|Trinidad and Tobago]]'s matches and not the required minimum of 75%. He played for [[Caledonia AIA]], having been sacked from both his previous clubs.

==International career== He got 58 caps and scored 22 goals<ref>[https://www.rsssf.org/miscellaneous/npierre-intlg.html Nigel Pierre - Goals in International Matches]</ref> for the [[Trinidad and Tobago national football team|national team]] between 1999 and 2005.<ref>[https://www.rsssf.org/miscellaneous/trin-recintlp.html Appearances for Trinidad and Tobago National Team]</ref>
