jonovision Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Like I have done the past 4 years, I've got a prediction contest running on my blog for this year's Voyageurs Cup tournament. Feel free to post your predictions in this thread, but if you want to enter the contest (there will be prizes) check out the blog post http://oot-football.blogspot.com/2013/04/voyageurs-cup-pool-2013-edition.html Personally I've got Toronto winning again, but I wouldn't be much surprised by any outcome other than an Edmonton win.

jonovision Posted April 16, 2013 Author Share Posted April 16, 2013 ^ Bump. 8 days until the matches. 8 days to make your picks. Over 20 entries in so far. Nobody has yet been brave enough to pick Edmonton to win over two legs (or even a single match, for that matter). Lots of love for Darren Mattocks for Golden Boot. Does he even have a goal this year?

Blackdude Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 One, in Houston. We are missing some Cool Runnings references. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
masster Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 I'm not going to predict an upset, but if the Whitecaps put out a fully second string lineup in Edmonton, which it sounds like they might, then I give the Eddies a real shot to get a result in the first leg. The reserves have had some underwhelming and inconsistent results in games against out of season University opposition. I am really curious to see what Martin Rennie will do.

canadianfoot Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 The Whitecaps will put a B squad but the subs will make it a B+ Squad in case they run into trouble. They will rest some veteran, maybe Miller will get a few minutes of play if he doesn't play this weekend. Rest Joe Cannon? Why not and see how Brad does. We might see also Koffie, Salgado and Manneh. I think Edmonton can definitely salvage a Draw but I would LOVE a Win even an UGLY one on their part, as the 2nd leg in BC Place would be a crucial one for the Whitecaps since keep missing a final touch to get their hands on that trophy.

masster Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 Given the amount of second stringers that Rennie started in Dallas yesterday, perhaps there will be a fairly strong lineup against Edmonton with the likes of Koffie, Camilo and Mattocks potentially getting back in the lineup.

Grizzly Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 One, in Houston. I am sorry for you that the Caps did not sign Friend who has scored 4 goals in 10 games in a league of similar level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheKottonmouthed1555362307 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 I am sorry for you that the Caps did not sign Friend who has scored 4 goals in 10 games in a league of similar level. 1 in 5 games this season, so not much better than anyone on the Caps, in reality.

RS Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 1 in 5 games this season, so not much better than anyone on the Caps, in reality. Not sure where you're getting the 1 in 5 number. Friend has scored 4 in 10 since joining 1860 Munich: http://int.soccerway.com/players/robert-friend/2312/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Califax Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 I predict good games with low attendance. I also predict it will be too slippery for impact fans to grip and throw chairs this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.Impact Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 So who is leading? Anyway to see everybody's picks? EDIT: jUST READ MY E-MAILS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shamrock Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 I would have to go for Montreal since they are looking a lot better and more stable in the back than Whitecaps. I think it's ridiculous that Cannon is still in goal, he's such a liability back there. Did you notice how he just watches the ball go into the net? Even if you don't make it, at least TRY and stop the ball. He's cost VWFC at least 5 points so far. Compare that with Perkins who is not spectacular but plays every game on a very high level. No, it's goin to be Montreal unless Schällibaum rests half the team again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
