Piette has been playing first team football for how many years now....and I haven't seen any progress since his first game...he's going on 30 caps. Someone else needs the exact same opportunity. and yea MLS season started 2 games ago, so no starts for Tissot, Leverferve, Fisk, Ledgerwood?

jpg75 Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 ----------------------Haber----------------- Hoilett---Arfield---Piette-------Aird -------------------Straith-------------------- CorbOng---Lefvere--James--Ledg ---------------------Leutwiler--------------- Assuming we keep playing the 4-1-4-1. I'd prefer to switch to a 4-2-3-1 for this game and drop Piette beside Straith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kent Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 CSA: Hello SFA. SFA: Hey CSA, its been a while! CSA: We were wondering if you'd like to play a game with us. SFA: Well, I'm not sure it would be an even match. We are ranked 40 positions ahead of you in the world rankings. CSA: Yeah but we would give you home field advantage and bring our B team. SFA: You guys are hilarious! Sure, let's do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheeta Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 SFA; Course, can no manage an appearance fee yuh understand? CSA; Don't worry about it. We're just glad for the opportunity. SFA; Ah that's grand then. Promise we'll get yah at the preferred rentals rate for the change rooms at Easter Road. Least we can do. CSA; Ummm... SFA; Now, now. Don't be proud. We insist. Can't have your lads getting kitted up in the coach before the match now can we? Not very dignified is it? Not for a senior international. CSA; Well, I think most of them are kind of used to it by now I'd think, but still. SFA: So we'll just have your credit card number and it's all set.

nolando Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/scotland-vs-canada-set-worst-10054273 Match should be broadcast by Sky Sport according to this article. Also, embarrassingly enough, this fixture is set to be the worst attended home Scotland match in 100 years as only 5000 tickets have been sold so far. http://www.skysports.com/football/scotland-vs-canada/369523 12:45 PST start if I have converted correctly.

Gian-Luca Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 Two days to go and I still haven't seen anything from the CSA about even a webcast, or have I missed something? They did just tweet a picture of Fraser Aird and the coaching staff standing in front of a canon on top of a castle, which is nice, but with a Skysports broadcast you'd think a Canadian broadcast could have been in the cards - but a webcast ought to be a minimum. A legal webcast that is..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unnamed Trialist Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 https://ca.sports.yahoo.com/news/north-vancouver-fullback-lavere-corbin-110004152.html North Vancouver fullback La'Vere Corbin-Ong takes first step with Canada The Canadian PressMar 21, 2017, 12:00 PM It is a name to remember — La'Vere Lawrence Corbin-Ong. And with any luck Wednesday, the London-born, North Vancouver-raised left fullback will be able to put Canadian international before it. His friends back home call him Lav, for short. In Germany, where he plays for FSV Frankfurt in the third division, his teammates call him Dante after the Brazilian who use to patrol the defence for Bayern Munich. "Because no one can say La'Vere," Corbin-Ong said. "And he also has curly hair (read Afro) and we kind of look similar." ........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
