CanadaFan123 Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 The leagues that CPL players have transferred to/played in is quite impressive so early on. Just off the top of my head with the division(s) in brackets: Romania (1), Cyprus (1 and 2), Belgium (2), Sweden (2), Bolivia (1), Saudi Arabia (1), Honduras (1), Costa Rica (1), Mexico (1), Uzbekistan (1), Israel (1), Malta (1), Cambodia (1), MLS (1), Denmark (2), Chile (2), England (5), Germany (4), Norway (1).

Look at some replies. He doesn't even focus his message, throwing in soccer stuff. Edited January 15, 2022 by Unnamed Trialist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big_M Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Former Pacific keeper Sachdev Grewal is with UD Alzira in Segunda RFEF (Spanish fourth tier)...started the season as #3 but the #2 just left so he steps up to #2 at least for now...they are currently 5th in group 5 which is a promotion play-off spot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would suspect its quite a bit lower than CPL based on both the quality of the respective national teams and the fact that Cambodia is a rather small and poor country so unlikely to be able to afford to attract quality players (cost of living aside).

After how he played in 2019 and 2020 I don't think it's a safe assumption that he would still be receiving offers from CanPL teams. nolando 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't forgot that a lot of smaller leagues have something comparable to an unofficial Designated Player situation, whereby one or two imported players seem to make significantly more than the local foot soldiers. Jordan Webb was in this situation in Singapore, for instance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simcoe is the much more ambitious of the two teams. They mind me of Peterborough's Electric City. They have a retail store. There banners hanging around town on lamp posts.

Despite Simcoe having aligned with several professional players, 1812 Barrie have not backed down fans have signed some relatively experienced soccer executives. Oh god, I would love to see the drama unfold among the upper echelons of Barrie’s soccer community. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh god, I would love to see the drama unfold among the upper echelons of Barrie’s soccer community. Barrie 1812 also hit the ground with a big splash when they launched . I remember a rather big press conference with Kristian Jack emceeing that was live-streamed .However, things went south pretty fast after with the team was not able to secure a home field in Barrie and ended up playing their home games in the Toronto area at various locations with Brampton being home to a few home games. Moreover, the team’s head coach stopped showing up for games and practices in the second half of the season and don’t think was replaced . The players ended up coaching the team themselves from what I hear. Hopefully Simcoe County and Electric FC live up to their hype and don’t suffer the same fate as Barrie 1812 did in their first season . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MM3/MM2/MM Posted January 19, 2022 Author Share Posted January 19, 2022 (edited) Seems like an underwhelming move, not only 2nd division but last place team in an 8 team league. Edit: Six month contract, some quick cash and move in the next window. Edited January 19, 2022 by MM3/MM2/MM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
