Sorry, thought I saw MLS players being listed on page 1, but it was only those on American teams. My bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Addona Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 I do think you've got Tam Nsaliwa listed at his old club. He's now in Turkish first division (played his first match this weekend) ... even though I'm not sure he is "Canadian" anymore: http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/en/tamandani-nsaliwa/profil/spieler_1446.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deschamp86 Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Taj Charles Sangara - NK Rudes (Croatian 2.HNL) (2) http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/en/taj-charles-sangara/profil/spieler_209870.html Boris Gavric - NK Vrbovec (Croatian 3.HNL) (3) http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/en/boris-gavric/profil/spieler_132865.html Michael Chu-Hok Luk - South China AA (Hong Kong First Division) (1) http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/en/michael-chu-hok-luk/profil/spieler_202057.html Landon Ling - Southern District (Hong Kong First Division) (1) http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/en/landon-ling/profil/spieler_213791.html Nikolas Kras - ASD HinterReggio Calcio (Lega Pro Seconda Division) (4) http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/en/nikolas-kras/profil/spieler_102629.html Here's a few updates I found through TransferMarkt. I'm going to do a bit more digging too. However, here's an idea. There seems to be A LOT of players that are on this list that I have never heard or, nor would likely ever hear of if not for having looked at this list. Is it really necessary to be having players 4th Division Sweden and 5th Division Switzerland on here? It really should be condensed to something like the top three leagues for each country, then maybe top 5 for the big leagues like England, Germany, Italy, Spain.. Without an extensive knowledge of languages, can be quite difficult to find information on players in these remote leagues. While I am looking at the list, I find myself wondering if some of these guys I am trying to find in these obscure leagues aren't in their 50's and long retired. Its doubtful anyone on the board would even know if the player was obscure enough. Anyway, just my two cents. I'll continue trying to find updates on some of these obscure players in the mean time.

Gian-Luca Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Isn't Riggi from our current U20 team with Celta De Vigo in Spain? The CSA roster list has him there at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madmonte Posted February 26, 2013 Author Share Posted February 26, 2013 I will look into these updates tomorrow if I have time, but expect from me most of my major updates to be on Sundays Hope that's cool with you all! And yes, deschamps, I agree with you about the league bits. Personally I'm completely open to suggestion about anything. I plan to let most of you guys do the legwork and arguing, and I will simply update the thread as you guys tell me to keep the list as fresh as possible But I will be researching too if the things are vague, so try to give me as much info as you can on each post including the league and name of the league to help me out so I don't have to spend 40 hours a week on it. That's what chased jpg out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its doubtful anyone on the board would even know if the player was obscure enough. Anyway, just my two cents. Point taken, but we shouldn't write any players off. Simeon Jackson was starting out, he was loaned to a 9th tier English side. Sure, there aren't many examples like him, but half the fun is finding players who are well off the radar.

youllneverwalkalone Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 ^Agreed. But it's also part of the history of this thread to celebrate any and all Canadian abroad. Historically, there has been literally no standard too low. I think Marty Rose was even on the list for awhile until he actually asked to be taken off.

Historically, there has been literally no standard too low. I think Marty Rose was even on the list for awhile until he actually asked to be taken off. That's fine, I don't mind. But how about I make like another legend for this thread, like a Three star rule, to go at the end of a name *** being definitely a canadian until such a time they become traitorous scum or cap tied. ** a player of split nationalities who seems undecided, and may decide Canada * a player that has more tenuous ties to Canada that is unlikely to play here and maybe no stars just means I need more clarification Would you guys object to a system like that, and help with it?

madmonte Posted February 27, 2013 Author Share Posted February 27, 2013 Oh and can you add height, weight and zodiac sign?? jk lol nice! The problem with putting position is that the thread will get cluttered. "He's playing RB now!" "No, he's technically still a midfielder, and that's where he operates best!" And that's one of the MOST well known players! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loud Mouth Soup Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Apologies if I missed it somewhere, but is Fraser Aird of Rangers a Canadian, or a "Canadian"? His parents live out in Whitby/Oshawa area, do they not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canadianfoot Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 STARS or COLOR System would be great I think. Another little thing I would like to add would be when you Actually make the UPDATE have somewhere on the page: UPDATED on 1march, 2013 (page 6) as sometimes people endup writing a bunch of stuff during the week and it's hard to follow where you left off. Then: UPDATED on 8march, 2013 (page17) etc, you guys get the idea. then it's easier for everyone to sort thru the thread IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After a decade of posting sarcastic answers to other people's posts exactly why are you offended by the response to your question? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
