Chad_Impact Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 This is the type of advertising our program needs, and Nike is the master of it. johnyb, yomurphy1, HooligansFW and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(men AND women) Realistically they should be announcing a camp and/or friendlies with this announcement (not necessarily at the same press conference) and we shouldn’t have to worry. Im sure they’ll still find a way to hold off on friendlies entirely until after the Gold Cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kadenge Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 CSA reporting this as "momentous news and a watershed moment"...so I have to think that the deal is until 2026 and for big bucks.....

One would hope. I like that of course they used footage of our stadium march and TIFOS.

Dominic94 Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 This is huge and not surprising given that they got Davies, along with other potential young stars coming from Canada in the future, it makes a lot of sense. Nike probably got the rights on the cheap in a sense but it’s probably the most we’ve ever gotten, the program is rising the ranks fast now.

adrenaline11 Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 Obviously we will be getting bespoke off the shelf templates from Nike. I went ahead and put the CSA logo on five of them that I could find. Which of these do you like best/least? ted and Admin 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kent Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 @Olympique_de_Marseille, is that Scott Arfield in the Huddersfield (i.e. Canada circa 2011) jersey? That’s amazing hindsight spotting of foreshadowing. johnyb, CanadianSoccerFan, yomurphy1 and 5 others 5 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nike has been slickly targetting real issues. The Kappernick thing...the refugee standpoint with whats going on in the USA....the new Raheem Sterling advert against racism.
