The bottom line is that the CSA has no money, apparently has no clue how to get it, and seems to be planning to spend what little it has on the women. And it will take a fair bit of money to improve...
Absolutely correct.
The problem we have now is that whoever we bring in is likely to be not as good as Stephen Hart. The budget just isn't there for somebody with a proven track record. We will...
Yeah, we lost because of madmonte's thread. Don't forget to hang up the garlic before you go to bed boys or the vampires will get you.
Fire the manager! (OK, that one was mine - see below for ones that are acutally funny. We have all been around long enough to know that one bad loss isn't the end of the world, even if it is a cup...
USA 3 Guatemala 1 (half time).
Doesn't look as though they are playing for the 0-0 draw!
F.U.C.K Honduras.
I will be cheering for the U.S.A., Jamaica, Mexico, Costa Rica, Panama, and whoever is playing those fcuking Honduran c0ck suckers.
Somebody asked me for rage, and there you...
Great post, thanks OM! I totally agree with Craig (although, to be fair, there were some good individual performances).
No matter who the coach is, there will always be some haterz. And of course they are always loudest after a bad loss and hide in their holes after a good win (e.g. Canada 1 Panama 0).
I remember...
^ We are going to win and those are the reasons why.
We need to go into Honduras with an attitude and take this game by the throat. Go in there with some swagger, push them around, and come out with three points.
Just look at the team we have:...
Nice to hear from you Hadley! I was actually on site for the Cuba game and didn't end up arranging anything for viewing it here in town. So, I'm not sure whether anybody turned up. I'll pop over...
I for one wish Jamaica well and hope we both make it through to the final round. I enjoy our rivalry with them.
I think the USA will play to win their last match. One of the things I've always...
Atiba is class. Our best player this campaign for sure.
Great post Canada1, I agree with you 100%.
I'm not buying the argument that Hart's "mandate" was to make it to the final 6 in CONCACAF. Why would we stop there? Surely his mandate is to win the...
I will be at the Elephant and Castle in Winnipeg for 2:30pm and I hope a few others will be able to join me. This is a game that needs to be watched live. If we win (or draw) I will not be going back...
Interesting thread! However, I disagree with your calculations:
Honduras win = 8/11 = 11 times out of 19 matches = 58% (rounded to nearest whole percentage point)
Draw = 12/5 = 5 times out of 17...
John TV - thank you for that very kind offer! I sent you a PM so we can discuss off the main forum and copied Dwayne and Alex. Let me know what you think! I'll check back later this evening. Cheers!
I hope we attack the SOLD OUT South End in the second half on Friday! We should be able to suck in at least a couple of goals. :)
Fantastic work Jamie. Kudos!
Sounds like it might be a bit of a squeeze to get all that in on Friday John. I think a visit to the Hall of Fame is a great idea and Dwayne and I are in for sure if we can make it happen. However,...
Our GD needs to be better than theirs. Currently theirs is two goals better than ours. If they win in Honduras that would give them another +2 for a total advantage of +4. If we beat Cuba and...
Ordered section 114, hoping for higher up, got section 113 lower down.
If anybody would like to trade a pair in 113 row 6 for a pair in 114 or 115 row 10 or higher, please PM me.
Good points Carl. I actually meant that we (the fans) seem to be taking Cuba lightly with comments like the title of this thread (not picking on anybody here, many are displaying that sentiment). No...
