Tintin Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 I love how things like this are always during working hours, and with almost no notice. The cup win got quite a lot of press in town, but the The Province more or less rehashed the same old stuff about the "freakin stadium", and according to some dork who writes for The Province mentioned how the Puerto Rican fans were clanging and banging throughout the match and Whitecaps fans were doing the old "go Caps go" crap throughout the match. He then said that fans sang lots of songs AFTER the game. What the hell? Were we that quiet? I don't think so. There's a bit of an interview with Stephen Hart in The Province almost worth a read as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vancouversoccerman Posted October 15, 2008 Author Share Posted October 15, 2008 For what it's worth, it was a nice time. Most of the players were there, and Jeff Clarke gave a City Council a subtle dig on the stadium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue and White Army Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 He was talking about driving down Kingsway or something, but then made a cheeky comment about "wouldn't it be nice to instead be turning down Cordova..." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
