That stadium should be packed! HUTCH is back ! Let's give him so much support that he's forced him to stay. its so sad that a Players sister has to go on twitter to get people to come and see Canada's Sr. National team! Hey TO soccer fans. Montreal embarrassed the country with their attendance against Curaçao, it's time to step up, don't let the country down. I don't think the issue is that Montrealers don't support Canadian soccer. Packed the Big-O for the CWNT vs Netherlands WC game in 2015. Problem is, it's very much a "big event" city. People tend to make plans late and will come out if there's a buzz around the game. So I think it's partly on the CSA for not working harder to create one. That being said, it definitely was a pretty shameful attendance, and I don't think Montrealers (myself included) can bitch if it's a while before we see another CMNT game.

Kent Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 In Molinaro's defence, you could probably say Hutch "is one of Canada's most skilled <fill in any position here>" A_Gagne and johnyb 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zem Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Great feature on Atiba. So funny to think now that when he debuted for Canada in 2003 JDG was a player he looked up to, when we've thought of them as players of the same generation for so long now. Back then, Atiba was a talented 19 year old kid who had just signed his first pro contract with a tiny club in the Swedish top flight while Julian was a 21 year old phenom playing in the Bundesliga.

Mike Thompson Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 I know it's gonna be difficult, but I wanna see him give it his all and play until the next WCQ campaign in 2019 Gold Cup too He's 34 but Patrice Bernier is 38 and is just retiring after this season so I see it as a possibility hamiltonfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markoaleks Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 i was at the game Saturday and re-watching the game on TSN this morning Hutch was awesome live and also on rewind Suggestion once his career ends and to pay homage to his career- no one should ever be allowed to wear #13 again when representing Canada Same suggestion too when Sinclair ends her career as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He just seemed on a different level than the others out there and yet didn't look like he was breaking a sweat in doing his job.

Marc Vivien Foe died on the pitch for Cameroon wearing #17 and they still have to issue the number if they name a squad for official matches (WCQ, AFCON, etc.) We can't really retire the number, because that number would need to be used at the Gold Cup. And Sinclair might be the only player where they wouldn't issue her number for future firendlies after her retirement, but it would need to be reiussed one day anyways.

Kent Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 I'm not advocating for retiring numbers, but is that really FIFA tournament rules? You have to have players with numbers 2-21 or whatever the numbers actually are? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vince193 Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 7 hours ago, dsqpr said: For the position and the way Atiba plays I definitely think he has another WCQ campaign in him. Hell, as far as we are concerned he is good enough to even play the one after! Anybody remember Roger Miller? Atiba will be 39 in 2022. I have no problem with him not really being a big part of qualifiers if it meant he keeps going until then and perhaps if we qualify for the WC he can play there. He deserves that.

dyslexic nam Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Atiba and crew go 2 and 0 to lead their group after the first two rounds of the group stage. Great start that puts them in a strong position to advance. Obinna and Blackjack15 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
