Their country would have a collective stroke and Tata would probably get fired. Edited November 13, 2021 by A_Gagne ted 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kent Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 (edited) Any of Mexico, USA, and Canada can be first after the next matchday. Any of the top 4 teams can be in 4th after the next matchday. Even though suddenly half of the teams seem to be out of contention for a World Cup spot, it's still quite tense! Our win, and scoreline against Panama is starting to look even bigger than it did at the time. If that game had been a draw, we would be a point behind them and tied with them on goal difference. As it stands we are 2 points ahead and up 6 in GD on them. Edited November 14, 2021 by Kent Corrected the draw with Panama scenario. Thanks SthMelbRed.

TGAA_Star Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 I can only imagine what the scenes will be like if we qualify for Qatar because not only will it be our first World Cup in over 36 years since Mexico 1986 but I bet a lot of you will want to go to Qatar yourselves to travel there, to see the boys play.

I hope he doesn't for the average Jo Canadian sports fan that make the trip to Qatar should we make it. I realize the majority of us are die hard fans but in my view: No such thing as a band wagon fan when you support your own country, regardless of the cause.

apbsmith Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 We need 3 points... Everyone focusing in on qualifying first, which is fair ( one step at a time). I just want us to not only qualify but make pot 3 of the draw! That's why I want these 3 points soooo bad!

Hawkguy Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Some people thought 20 points would be enough. I'm thinking that's more like 24-25 now. Ruffian, narduch, dyslexic nam and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olympique_de_Marseille Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 With the buzz around this team right now, we could sell 20 000 tickets to a Camp Poutine match at home in mid-January ( Vancouver or Toronto )!

This right here is the game changer. No longer need to worry about funding camps when you can put on games and sell enough tickets to cover it.

TGAA_Star Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 We could easily book a place at Qatar early with games to spare in the next window especially if we can get points against Honduras (W), USA (D) and El Salvador (W) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Califax Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 I would like someone to run a scenario where we get one point out of the next three games. Hate to be the jerk-face downer - and it’s not likely - but it is possible. This thing is far from done. ted, Approve My Account Pls, Unnamed Trialist and 2 others 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hate to be the jerk-face downer - and it’s not likely - but it is possible. This thing is far from done. It's very far from done. We could literally be 4th, by ourselves, after the next game. That's how close things are. We need at least 9 points in my opinion. Edited November 17, 2021 by Hawkguy Califax 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Califax Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 The goal has to be to clinch at least third before our final game in Panama. Has to be. chalms04, Hawkguy, Xavier. and 5 others 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
