Saw a post on twitter that he was having a bit of ABE ERB K-W local brew. Hard to say unless he tips something off or someone finds out something. Like last week he tweeted he was heading out to Vancouver. It's interesting but really nothing concrete to post about so I didn't. For all I know he could of been visiting friends. There's enough rumours and innuendo on here lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex D Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 Sometimes I think Paul is trolling it's for his own amusement. I can't even blame him, it looks fun. Rheo, Nathanael Martin, GuillermoDelQuarto and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Levi Oakey Posted July 31, 2017 Author Share Posted July 31, 2017 Yeah. Paul has spent time in KW in the past. No guarantees it means anything but we know Barry is working hard on getting a team here. I am sure there are tons of discussions right now.

I don't think he really has the funds on his own to run a CPL team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathanael Martin Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 Barry has said he already has investors lined up, the biggest issue is stadium still. In regard to Paul's presence, yeah; nothing concrete. But, Paul was quite profuse in telling me at the L1O all-star game that Barry is a great friend of his. It's entirely possible that they got together for beer and discussion. Also, in regard to the L1O discussion, pretty sure I've driven Barry nuts by beating on that drum: I would love to see us move there until we get into canPL!! Roadtrips would be so much easier, we could actually follow through when we sing "and where you go we'll follow"!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The PDL team serves the purpose of providing playing time for NCAA players that Maclean's firm represents. For players planning their career around using the American system, PDL allows them to have competition that is easily understood by American scouts while not running into issues with season length I wish they'd go the L1O route by I understand where they are coming from Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The association, a small group of local soccer supporters, has launched an online survey to gauge public interest in bringing a Canadian Premier League team to Waterloo Region. Links to the survey, which closes Aug. 5, are available on the group's Facebook, Twitter and Instagram accounts....
