JamboAl Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Al are you going to be in Toronto for this one? Aye aye, Captain. You going Matt? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baulderdash77 Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 I think it's Akindele and Will Johnson. It would be a pleasant surprise (and we should all be nervous) if Will is on the roster. I think it's a happy moment when Tesho accepts the call and I'd be a bit disappointed if he's not on the roster after the 99% sure quote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supersonic78 Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Akindele would be fantastic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supersonic78 Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Pardon me if it's been asked but is the first leg being televised/webcast? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theaub Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Sigh.... dammit, I wish I was a superstar who had dual nationalities playing in a quality foreign league so I can just say "YES, I will play for CANADA," and be a damn example to these schmucks!!!! Well the good thing is Cavallini hits exactly zero of those criteria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squizz1402635577 Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Pardon me if it's been asked but is the first leg being televised/webcast? It won't be on TV, and the CSA media guy won't know until matchday whether or not a web stream will be possible (i.e. if stadium has Internet connectivity to allow it).

reme90 Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Guys, we've down this road before (at least it seems like it) and have we not learned to keep expectations low? ....anyways, i am going to brace myself to be disappointed and anything positive will be gravy. If this is not at the very heart of being a CANMNT fan than I dont know what is. Finlay and Akindele is what I'm hoping for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beauty, thanks. I'm really getting pumped. Just checked flights to Dominica for fun. Tough place to get to apparently. Let's hope they've got some high-speed connectivity down there.

1zzurri Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Any general estimates on crowd size for this? How many did we get out at the same stage during last cycle? I don't recall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theaub Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Saw a Groupon for it so maybe 12K? If they could get most of the lower East/South/West that would be a massive victory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keegan Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 If I was Finlay I would be pretty pissed being passed over consistently for Miguel Ibarra... he had his cup I can't believe Jurgen doesn't rotate his squad more with a pool so big but more likely Jurgen just calls Ibarra as a "F you" to MLS.

squizz1402635577 Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 No TV/media hype whatsoever, presumably very little advertising (other than word of mouth provided by us), mid-week game, nothing opponent, early qualifying round... Yeah, 10k would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigMo Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Serious question. Has a team that has taken part in qualifying this early ever made the World Cup? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

db707 Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Serious question. Has a team that has taken part in qualifying this early ever made the World Cup? The formats have been different in Concacaf over the year and are different across regions (Europe only has 1 mass group stage for example) so it's hard to compare. Trinidad and Tobago went through 4 rounds to qualify for 2006 (including the playoff with Bahrain) consisting of 20 games, which is what Canada would need to do to qualify directly (+2 more games and an extra round if qualified only for the playoff).

IceCreamMan Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 I said I wouldn't get excited but kept me up at night thinking about the possibilities anyway. Noticed Scott Arfield again isn't on Scotland's roster... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king1010 Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 If you go on the site and search 'canada soccer' it will come up. Nice I see it now. It says over 720 bought. Should be well over 1000 bought from groupon come game time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
