Watched last 15-20 minutes of Chinese league game, entertaining finish, 3 goals by Paulinho, very poor defending by Dalian Yifang.

Black numbered column is the per-match price for year-long STH. Red/green column is how much more or less a fall-only STH pays

Simmons age 21 at HFX is mysteriously overlooked. He is Rarely named in the pre game HFX line up predictions written up by the CPL editors yet he has started 12/16 games for them in the key position as DM. His highlights video went on you tube a few weeks back and I think he will be one of the few young players who will be snapped up by a big league club within 1-2 seasons as his technique, passing, intelligence and decision making is on another level, which is not surprising when you look closer at his development background in England and Sweden. https://youtu.be/9gOIxP-zflY

I guess have only 178 players as they have listed Marcel de Jong twice (#88 and #101)???

As it appears that there are currently 179 Canadian players under contract with professional clubs, might as well complete the list here: # Player Age Nat.

Pugh is more a minor partner compared to the rest of the ownership. It's probably Roger Greenberg and John Ruddy that are making most of the decisions and everything is filters through the RedBlack's lens. They have financial priority, follow probably equally by the 67's and the Fury.

Richie Ennin eh?  I believe he’s 20 and not sure of the Latvian league level but it looks like its time for a move to a higher level.  He was top scorer for his team this past season and it looks like he played the wing.

To the fans? It really shouldn't. May as well play against Timbuktoo and Whereareyou. To the FO, sure does. As the sole Canadian Team in the USL, they have a couple things they get to play off of: Direct line toward the MLS. Teams in the MLS, especially affiliate teams, look to the USL first to fill back bench positions. The direct affiliate provides a visible link to a pro contract Chest-thumping Canada vs USA action. As the only Canadian Team, Fury get to claim they're fighting back the American behemoth. That thrill we get whenever we beat the Americans at anything, is exactly what they're going for. In the capital, this need to beat the Americans should be even stronger. It doesn't really work out for the way FO expects/hopes, but that's just poor marketing. Provide a direct way to compare "Canadian Players" stack up against the USA Small fish, big pond As a small fish in a big pond, if they screw up, it doesn't matter much in the grand scheme of things. This allows for some experimentation on field or in operations. Fury are basically floated as a tax write-off by OSEG, but they would like to turn a profit on it someday. So they have some room to experiment and see if it happens. I would absolutely love for them to be a part of CanPL. I would also love to see a lot more French and even some Anishinaabemowin (though that's definitely a pipe dream).   (Looped it back on topic for ya.  )

1) I have already stated clearly this is the flag FIFA uses to represent Northern Ireland in international soccer matches. 2) I know well the lad who made the banner and he is a moderate who is against sectarianism and violence. (He also offered to attach the Irish tri-color to it if anyone thought it would be a problem). 3) There is no sectarianism in our group. We have Rangers supporters, Celtic supporters some good banter and we all get along. We have people from all countries, all religions and we all get along. I am at every game this is a fact  - how many Halifax games have you been to? No one is playing with fire - no one in HALIFAX has a problem with it and no one from visiting clubs/supporters has ever had a problem with the Northern Irish flag being displayed. It seems like you are just trying to start and create a huge issue over literally nothing.
