I am most surprised that the percentage of those who will support another nation and not Canada increased with younger Canadians. It would have been interesting to have asked them who they were supporting. I suspect that Croatian supporters might have fallen in the ‘dual’ category had they not been drawn in Canada’s group. Portuguese supporters that I’ve spoken with all seem to fall in the ‘dual’ group, so I wonder if they would have felt differently if they were drawn with Canada? Well being a dual I too will be supporting 2 nations because I'm Canadian of course but I'm also Ghanaian so I get the sentiment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes and many others as well such as Montgomery, Mullings & Tani but I've decided to keep them all on there anyways.

red card Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 (edited) Looks like National Training Centre is being considered by Vaughan. New stadium also included - possible use by CPL team? Mayor Bevilacqua announced that the City of Vaughan and Canada Soccer are partnering to explore the feasibility of a National Training Centre that could include an outdoor field and stadium and an indoor training facility, administrative offices and support amenities. The proposed National Training Centre would be located at the City's 900-acre North Maple Regional Park (NMRP). Dr. Bontis and Mayor Bevilacqua signed a memorandum of understanding "to advance our shared vision to create a high-performance facility that combines iconic architecture with functional excellence, which can serve as a national centre for soccer," Mayor Bevilacqua said. The City is undertaking grading, servicing and environmental restoration at NMRP to prepare for future facilities, such as the proposed National Training Centre. The City will retain ownership of all lands. Edited May 12, 2022 by red card narduch, Corazon, Unnamed Trialist and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canada teams train in Vaughan and then head to Woodbine for matches? Woodbine seems to positioning itself as a place where Canada youth teams, pro women's club & tier 2 matches can play + training for visiting teams.

SpecialK Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 I wonder with Canada’s stock pile of young talented wingers, when are we gonna see Davies move back to LB.

Shut the %#^* up! 😅 It never makes sense to move our best attacker away from the final third. Until guys show that they are better than Davies it’ll make sense.

Thanks. Looks like yes, Reading. First name is Tom. He's 22 now. I'd like to go on the record as saying even if we get this defender, I don't want Davies playing LB!

Craig11rm Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 IMO the only time Davies should play LB is when we are the clear favourites and the other team is parking the bus. When we are the underdog it’s better to have him up high pressuring the back line and creating opportunities in transition.
