JamboAl Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Josh Simpson's side in a bit of trouble. How come invariably many of our boys overseas wind up at questionably run clubs?

Add to that it looks like there was a team (Neuchatel Xamax?) that also bowed out mid-season due to financial problems. Sorry if this is a stereotype, but would have thought the Swiss League would have been the last place where there'd be financial issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamboAl Posted April 24, 2012 Author Share Posted April 24, 2012 The guy who bought Xamax 18 months ago was an absolute lunatic. He apparently walked into the dressing room with a gun and threatened to kill his players after a poor performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VAddona Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 This is why I sometimes think that it's just best for our boys to play somewhere that is financially "safer", even if not at exactly the same level ... come to MLS, Josh!!! Montreal, Vancouver, and TFC could all use you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
