Admin Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 The only thing keeping this remotely civil, is people really like Herdman, as do I. But I predict the speed at which people turn on him and the program will be in record time. I literally pray we are all wrong wrt what we are all thinking.

Zambrano wasn’t even a world class coach, but that he bolted or gave up on the National team probably means rhe CSA wanted him do more than what his job description dictated. I remember he was gung ho and I believe he even stated that he joined the program on the condition Canada was to get its own league. Maybe he realized nothing is happening anytime soon and bolted, still Herdman as coach, screams of CSA cheapness. It sounds like he was sacked though!

dyslexic nam Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 So, the players didn't want it, results were solid, and OZ was making inroads with fringe players like Cav and building bridges to fence sitters... Fuck me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danninho Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 I think another factor responsible for the shake-up is the CSA's fear of losing Herdman entirely. Knowing of his future ambitions, they offered him the men's program in order to keep him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was apparently offered the job at England and was going to leave if they didn't give him the men's program. I really like Herdman, but if our coach for the men's program is the coach because that is the card he played, it doesn't sit right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dyslexic nam Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 John:. Please don't take all of this personally. Everyone - or at least almost everyone - on here has a great deal of respect for what you have done with the women's program. But this seems like a from-the-hip decision from the CSA aboit the long term direction of Canadian soccer's most challenged file. I wish you well, and hope you prove all of us doubters wrong.

Unnamed Trialist Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Herdman has no serious experience with the men. I am not saying women's soccer is a different game, but it is played differently, the standards are different, and the demand more severe. For me he is completely unacceptable as our men's coach, the move rather disgusts me overall. We have a long tradition of total incompetence at the CSA, they are so dumb, and it is the fault of the Canadian soccer establishment who elect these guys who give us such poor decisions year after year.
