Rheo Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 “Canada Soccer has positioned itself for unprecedented growth which would not have been possible without the support and collaboration of our members, staff, and the passionate soccer public,” said Canada Soccer General Secretary Peter Montopoli. “With feedback from the Canadian soccer community, we hope to create the most ambitious and achievable plan to establish ourselves as a Leading Soccer Nation for decades to come.” With a survey to fill in at the link below http://www.canadasoccer.com/you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ansem Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Now's your chance to be heard. I put crazy ideas of my own, regardless, that's the best place to be heard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurt-MTL Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 I submitted my comments; tried to keep it constructive and specific (and realistic). I don't know that it will make a difference but as a fan, it's the least I can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gopherbashi Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 I'm going to put off filling out this survey until I forget about it then get mad that they haven't adopted any of my ideas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I put some great suggestions regarding strategic thinking and how they should carry themselves forward!!!... Really enjoyed filling out this survey, as a fan it's the least I can do and I even mentioned that I'll love to get involved and together with the rest of these clowns of the CSA enact and implement my ideas... Seriously, a lot of us in here would do a hell of a better job at implementing strategies, ambitions & goals than the current brass on board.... Incompetency is like a buffer, like it can only last so much, right??... Time for these buffoons to enact these changes & NOW.... Not fair for us fans to endure all this stupidity, laughingstock & crap from all these years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HfxCeltic Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Submitted - pretty much focused on CPL support, player development, and actually hosting matches in Canada (emphasized please come to Halifax). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that was the focus of mine for the most part, along with being more open in light of the coaching change questions since they took a big hit in trust factor there.

dyslexic nam Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Did mine today. Pretty wide ranging - support CPL as much as possible, stop letting international windows go unused, get as many home games as possible to build support, strategically cap tie promising young dual nationals in minnow LoN games, etc. And be realistic. What would it take to make Canada a leading soccer nation? By 2021? Uh, a magic wish...? Let's focus on being respectable in that timeframe and making the hex. Leading soccer nation - lol.

Very similar to what I wrote @dyslexic nam, lmfao... Particularly concerning the International windows, getting as many home games as possible and the cap-tying of promising dual nationals... I can see we are in the same page on this... Plus I also added the fact to have all games broadcast on regular T.V. and no that doesn't mean specialty channels like your TSN2, BEIN Sport, Sportnet World, etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dyslexic nam Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Agreed. I also noted that it was ironic that they put effort into fan engagement and a web survey about how to make things better while we miss an international window... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only international window between New Years and the World Cup is the March window when we're playing New Zealand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dyslexic nam Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Ah yeah. I completely forgot about that. Haven't heard much about it so it slipped my mind. Apologies CSA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did laugh at that one. I guess I also had to check myself as I was approaching it from the mens team standpoint first. Obviously we are much closer with the Womens. It would take such a monumental shift in public exposure and not just acceptance but respect. The world would need to be watching our team win every game/competition with knockout performances playing top nations and still there would be so much more needed, we would need half the squad to be top players playing with top clubs/leagues, the infrastructure of the game in Canada to be highly regarded, the CPL, the coaches and staff within that too. If they had said 2026 that would have been better but still verging on completely impossible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
