Guess they'll just go with DeRo, Radz or possibly Hutch should Gerba have a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winnipeg Fury Posted June 19, 2008 Author Share Posted June 19, 2008 The team had a LONG flight out of St Vincent and it took three different planes to get all the team off the island. Thursday the team is practicing from 11 AM - Noon. There will be a Canadian merchandise tent up on Friday, at the match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue and White Army Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 Thanks for the info, WF. I'm surprised that the boys are practicing tomorrow. I would expect that it won't be too physically exerting, the day before the match. Perhaps light jogging, a few kicks of the ball, and some tactics/formation.

Blue and White Army Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 Photos are being uploaded as we speak. It seems the clip that Piltdownman uploaded is already gone. I think YouTube has some auto-search spider that eliminates what it guesses is copyrighted material. Possibly leave "Sportsnet" out of the description and try again, Pilt?

nolando Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 I wonder how OO feels now that he's not even worthy to be called up as emergency third-stringer - quebec is his home too :< poor show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last I saw on here his club side was struggling and he was on the bench. He surely will have lots of incentive now to force himself back into the MNT picture by the time the second round begins.

Not sure about him being on the bench as he scored twice in his last game with Lillestrom (June 8). He has scored 4 goals in 9 games this year for his struggling team.

Perhaps his club is pretty steadfast about not releasing him for now. If he continues to score over the summer surely he will be in our MNT striker mix for the second round.

That's what I figured, moreso than Dale ignoring/not rating him. I could see how a struggling team would be loathe to release one of their better strikers for a month.

I could see how a struggling team would be loathe to release one of their better strikers for a month. It`s also extremely short notice and he would be hurting from all the connecting flights. He would probably get in on the 20th and not be game shape in the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loyola Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 The Tippeligaen has been pausing since June 8 until June 27 so I'm pretty sure OO is in MTL or at least was available for both games against SVG. Since the South Africa game in November I've been under the impression that DM doesn't rate OO that much. Starting Hume over him as a lone striker was a weird move by the coach.

nolando Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 Yeah, and if they had called him in Monday morning he would ahve had plenty of time to get here and prepare, no matter where he was - pretty unflattering treatment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gian-Luca Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 Well Hastings it out injured too now according to that latest article in the "Article" thread. Can we really be going into a World Cup Qualifier with just 16 players? That's not acceptable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
