MJALLTHEWAY Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 I mean it's possible that we are overconfident, but I just don't see it. From everything I've read and interviews I've watched, the lads are taking it one game at a time, and there's a quiet confidence in their abilities. In no way does it seem as though they feel a win is guaranteed. In fact, I'd suggest it near impossible to feel that way given the history between Canada and Honduras. This quiet confidence they have right now is what will make them successful, and is integral for any team that wants to make the WC. In fact, I'm more scared that a quick goal from Honduras will erode the self-confidence they currently have. Something seems different right now; there's an aura of optimism from the players. I get the impression from Dero that he believes it's his last kick at the can and this is the one thing he's desperately wanted that has eluded him in his career. He seems ready to do whatever it takes to get to the WC. I get the same impressions from McKenna, De Guz and Jazic, and hopefully that can inspire the rest of the boys to pick up their socks and give it their all. Hell, De Guz has knocked back the clock 5 years in these past 2 games. Tomorrow will be a LONGGGG day at work waiting for the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

parkingatlamport Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Huge respect for Jason De Vos who took a chunk of time today on the Euro 2012 panel to promote tomorrows game. For anyone who missed it, he announced the importance of the game, the effect of home support, and how anyone near BMO should purchase a ticket and support this team. A great little speech on his part. Would be nice to have a little "Support Local Soccer" flag for the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keegan Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Hope everyone is ready to lose their voice tomorrow. I also hope Hart doesn't bring out the same XI. We won last game but it wasn't anything special, this will be 3 games in a row with the same XI (minus Hirsch). I'm afraid we'll see a predictable XI with a predictable performance to match and Honduras will respond accordingly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

furtado91 Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Is there anything to be notified of beforehand? like is it known that there have been altercations between us and Honduran fans? just curious is all, seeing as how apparently there are tons of Honduran fans.

Macksam Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 http://vvcap.net/db/uPfYakmWM819wL0bTk8l.htp That is New Zealand's results at WC 2010. So before we start slagging them realize we could'nt make the hex for 2010, whereas NZ qualifie and did'nt lose a game at the WC. So no we have'nt shown we are better than New Zealand unfortunately. We are well aware of New Zealand's lucky, scrappy draws in the last World Cup. We easily could've done the same if we had their qualifying route. Based on results, sure...we're not better. Based on observation from someone who knows a lot about the sport, yes we are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BMO Security is going to be overwhelmed. They will have seen NOTHING like this. Unfortunately, if we warn them, it's us they will crack down on, not them. I don't recall a game at BMO that would have had this level of hostility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been to nearly all Canadian games at BMO and seen quite a few altercations. ALL, and I mean ALL altercations are started by opposing fans. It's the same situation every time. Some opposing fans usually feel inadequate because there is nothing going on within their supporters. Canadian fans are united in song and dance in the supporters section and this angers them. The majority of the opposing fans enjoy it. Then some meatheads feel they need to leave their seats and make their way to the supporters area and start shoving their flags in people's faces. I've seen this over and over and security is so clueless until someone takes objection to having a flag shoved in their face. Other than that, the rest of the stadium gets along just fine. For most part, it's the first time they've been to BMO and they are oblivious to anything local soccer and are only interested in their teams national squad. They get a kick out of the Canada support and have a good time as half their support is usually really Canadian anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nolando Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Two great tweets from today: Kris Fernandes @Insidesoccermag To all the girls, @justinbieber is at the Skydome hotel tonight. His security detail are all Spanish so follow them all night. #canmnt Jason deVos @jasondevos The notion of only supporting Canada “when they’re good” is disgraceful. You’re supporting your country, not a pro franchise. #canMNT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ray Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 This is it. A group without USA or Mexico. We're playing at home. If we can't win in these conditions, it is dubious we qualify for the Hex. Don't give the ball away cheaply, guys. The more we have it the less play-acting we'll be subjected to. Go Canada! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
