sstackho Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 I just wanted to give a shoutout to the new default "commercial" break on OneSoccer, which is that instrumental song that is currently stuck on loop in my head - and now, hopefully, yours. Much better for repeated listening than the goal calls and Allstate commercial reruns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nfitz Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 I may off myself though, if they don't get rid of the Davies commercial for Instagram. Do we have to here it so incessantly? Club Linesman and johnyb 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found it useful to post the link to all those complaining that Drake had only heard of Davies after the Panama game on Wednesday rather than if was Davies who ask for Drake to follow him getting close to two years now. nfitz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkomar Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 (edited) For the last day, the TV guide on the OneSoccer site has been broken for me. All I see is a few bogus entries for early Thursday the 28th. Is it borked for anyone else?

Kent Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Anyone else having problems with OneSoccer today? My internet has been terrible yesterday and today, so it's hard to tell where the problem is, but it seems to be with OneSoccer. Trying to watch the CWNT game and it's not working. Trying to test with the live feed and it's not working. Trying to test with the Forge vs HFX game and it's not working. I'm wondering if they are trying to do 3 games (the Lille game as well) and it's screwing things up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kent Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Update, it's working on the app on my iPhone, but not on my computer. Casting from my phone is garbage so I was hoping the computer would work. Oh well, hopefully the sound isn't too out of sync today. Sigh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkomar Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 I'm not having any trouble with the stream on my computer today. I'm usually connected well before the pregame show starts, so maybe that helps in some way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kent Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 Action shot from OneSoccer coverage of the Forge vs Montreal shoot out. Full disclosure, Tak Savvy might be to blame as well. dyslexic nam and ray 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chalms04 Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 Had the game recorded on Optik, but missed the pens because the guide didn't line up. I usually set the recordings to end +15 mins, but that still wasn't enough. johnyb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozzie_the_parrot Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Australia already had a league called the NSL (similar to what the Windsor-Quebec corridor had in Canada in the 1970s) that produced their Golden Generation at ethnic clubs that were subsequently largely sidelined when the A League was formed. Canadian soccer did that sooner when the CSL was launched in 1987 and Toronto Italia, Croatia and Panhellenic of the NSL were rejected as applicants while the Toronto Blizzard and North York Rockets were accepted. In both contexts a lot of people who had been heavily involved in developing elite level players were alienated by the manner in which that issue was handled. Although it doesn't fit the preferred narrative of a lot of posters on here the present Golden Generation in Canada is driven to a significant extent by the emergence of fully funded MLS academies, so the parallels with Australia and domestic national leagues start to break down.

Bison44 Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Ugghh, every post is about some mythical anti MLS narrative. Cant we just call a spade a spade? We are getting depth from the acadamies but I would argue we see havnt seen the big bump from MLS yet. MLS has helped immeasurably to grow the fanbase and the exposure and surely turned a lot of kids to soccer in the last 15 years and laid the groundwork for the CPL, but most of the top team talent didnt come through an MLS academy yet. Looking just at our main youngish semi regular starters who might have gone to a MLS academy....but Buchanon, Johnston, K. Miller, Lareya, Larin all came from NCAA route. Cavallini, Hoilett, David, Osorio, Eustaquio, Piette, Kennedy all developed outside MLS academies. Davies, Crepeau...mb Akinola are the main academy grads at CMNT. You take Davies out (he was already a phenom in edmonton at 15 when Van got him)....its not as rosy or significant as you would think it would have been. Hopefully the academy teens at the 3 MLS clubs now make it all the way to the top. narduch and CDNFootballer 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With a couple of free hours, I might be able to give you a rudimentary summary of the situation here. However, since I don't currently have a couple of free hours, you might just have to make do with the dipshit above who fancies himself an expert on the subject. 🙄 Bison44, dyslexic nam, longlugan and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzie_the_parrot Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 (edited) Meanwhile back on topic, there doesn't appear to be any hard evidence that the A Leagues are now on Onesoccer. Wikipedia mentions Onesoccer but the references provided for international broadcasters makes no mention of them: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/A-League_Men https://www.a-league.com.au/our-international-broadcasters https://www.a-league.com.au/news/how-watch-a-league-202021-season Their broadcast rights got picked up by one of the main networks in Australia called Channel 10 (owned from the United States by CBS) and they have been reported to have attraced a large cash injection from an American equity firm by selling off a stake in their league: https://www.smh.com.au/sport/soccer/a-leagues-set-for-130-million-payday-with-equity-sale-to-us-firm-20211023-p592jm.html so they are doing quite well these days in terms of financial stability.

He was a phenom, but there's no saying a European team would have come for him or that he would have developed if he'd gone the NCAA route. I'm not saying Vancouver deserves all the credit, just that we can't remove him either - the system worked the way I think we're all hoping it will. johnyb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sstackho Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 OneSoccer appears to have shown significant improvement in the time it takes for a past program/event to be viewable through the app. If I couldn't watch something live, I typically assumed I'd have to wait until the next day to watch it - and even then, I've had to send a couple of e-mails to get episodes of OneSoccer Today to show up. Recently, I have been able to watch OneSoccer Today later the same evening, and yesterday's Forge match was available when I checked late last night. It's still very far from, say, DAZN's technology. But baby steps... Kent, nfitz, Pottsy3 and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Recently, I have been able to watch OneSoccer Today later the same evening, and yesterday's Forge match was available when I checked late last night. It's still very far from, say, DAZN's technology. But baby steps... Yeah, agreed. In previous years I have at time had to wait more than 24 hours for a game to become available. I had a soccer game to play at 10 ET last night, so I missed the last half hour of the Forge vs Santos game. By the time I was home and showered, around 11:30, the game was available so I could watch the rest of it. Well done OneSoccer! Eventually it would be great if they could get to the point where I could start watching a game from the beginning if I am late to it. For example, tonight I have a dilemma for the 7:30 PM game between Pacific and TFC. I'll be busy with my kids until about 8:15 PM. Do I join the game in progress then? Or wait until the game is available on replay to watch the whole thing? Especially since I don't really want another late night tonight, so might have to conclude the game tomorrow at some point even if the game is available quickly like it was last night. If I could start from the beginning of the game at 8:15, that would be perfect. sstackho and ted 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
