Honduras - CANADA 16th Oct. 2012 Game Tread (R) KICK-OFF 4pm ET....1pm PT

[ag futbol]

What gave people cause for optimism for this game?

We got ripped apart in Panama, we've only been able to score one goal - which wasn't from the run of play, outside of games with Cuba. One goal! Our one decent striker was unavailable, we were terrible without him last time.

Can people accept that we're not very good now. The hex wouldn't be much better for us.

Sad, but true.

We need to produce more players, better player... Coaching needs improvement as well, but there's not a lot to work with out there.

[Miche]

no. f that. Off. Good night everyone. All the best, stay safe.

[Supersonic78]

is there a mercy rule? we're gonna need it.

HOLY CHRIST. have some pride. take a red card or something.

[Redcoatsforever]

5-0 now...what subs did we even make?

[villus]

Good to see Hainault close down the ball in the box...................................................This is embarassing, these players are letting us down horribly, play with some ****ing heart you bums.

[dyslexic nam]

If they feel like they got their heart ripped out, dyslexic, why are they telling me they're going to **** off for the next n years, or forever.

Because if you come home to find your wife in bed with another man, you don't start planning your next anniversary.

[Addona]

I mean, that goal was crazy ... it was literally just kick the ball in the air and your teammate is alone (no one within 8 yards of him).

[Footscray]

If he doesn't at least cap tie Cavallini I'm done with the NT until Hart is gone.

[Macksam]

Maybe this is for the best...

[villus]

They should be booed when they step off the plane in Canada, these players should be shamed.

[baulderdash77]

I can't believe we're taking this kind of beat down. I thought it was going to be a close game. 1-0, 0-0 type of game. This is just gut ripping at this point.

[CUJO]

I really hope honduras hits double digits, embarrass these pathetic losers

[Canuck in Boston]

Good thing he didn't call them equivalents, genius.

TFC was eliminated in the 1st week of play.

[villus]

The most telling image for me is not one of our guys is throwing in a bone crushing tackle. If your getting embarrassed, nut megged and beat down at least show some fight and put some of the Honduran's on their ass, show Honduras, your teammates, your fans they can't embarrass your team. Nope they are just letting them waltz around, no ****ing pride.

[TFCfan4life]

How the **** is this **** possible!

5-0

What kind of professional players are these?

How can they call themselves professional?

You can tell a team's character once everything is on the line. We are a sad, sad bunch. Worthy of feeling sorry for.

[Redcoatsforever]

TFC was eliminated in the 1st week of play.

Man, you sure showed me. I feel so bad getting told about an unrelated non-fact by a guy who can't parse and comprehend basic statements, like for instance that someone saying "this reminds me of..." isn't the same as saying "the is exactly the same as, and equivalent to...". Good work.

[rob.notenboom]

The horror.

[NSSoccer]

Almost got in a right with an idiot who yelled "yeah Honduras"

[Redcoatsforever]

You know it's bad when Craig ****ing Forrest is laughing at Canada.

[Nesij]

Go honduras make it 12-0

[DigzTFC]

I want them to reach 10. Just so certain people never play or work for Canada ever again

[BigMo]

Just disband the CSA.

[SCF08]

Game and first set to Mr. Honduras 6-0.

This team looks good on paper?

How many players are playing for a decent Euro team? Hutchinson is by far the best player in Canada colours and he's just a Average Joe for PSV.

It has to be said...how terrible this first half has been. Canada have come close to qualifying for the hex this time around. 1 goal at home to Honduras has been the difference between qualifying and being out.

Instead of blaming the manager the focus has to be on developing a national strategy on how you want to play football and teach that to the youngsters. The small time mentality within Canadian football should disappear and there has to be a huge focus on technique training and keeping the ball. You don't deserve to win football games if you continously play like cowards in away games like this. Panama and Honduras aren't exactly world beaters but Canada have already given up before kick-off and start sitting back from the get go.

It's a huge project to develop a national way of playing that is supported by all the youth coaches but it's the only way forward.

The bolded part is bang on. This is all mental; no belief, no courage.

[Addona]

I feel bad for Lars ... he is being left out to dry Patrick Roy style.
