We're playing in front of 25 people on the Cayman Island next fall. But hey, 112 people watched from their laptop a game from a community park in Orange County against Bermuda. Spell it how ever you want.. in fact maybe spell it noose. Because if they loose against Iceland a bunch of people at the CSA might want to hang themselves. Remember the CPL also relies on revenue from our national team Edited January 6, 2020 by SpursFlu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obinna Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 (edited) 30 minutes ago, SpursFlu said: And this attitude is why we suck. Then we loose to Iceland and everyone starts crying Just being realistic. I don't see them going through the trouble at this stage. Any work to investigate our squad and plan accordingly was likely done in advance (if it was even done at all). Obviously I have never organized and executed a successful camp for an international team, but I imagine the vast majority of them design each and every training session ahead of time. Now if Iceland plan to 1.wait for the CSA to release video of the Barbados game 2. quickly analyze the match and 3. use it to plan their remaining training sessions, then yes we are shooting ourselves in the foot by providing game material. Very remote possibility though, if you ask me. I am confident releasing footage to the fans won't jeopardize our chances. By the way, couldn't they just go to the game and film it themselves if they really wanted, or simply just attend the game and take notes?

Y'all kids have been spoiled with your streams and your snapchats and your Tiktoks. This is how it used to be in the glory days. You'd be lucky if you could find an audio stream of a bunch of Welsh commentators making fun of the Canadian warmups and you'd like it. I still remember hitting the refresh button on my mom's dial-up internet on the CONCACAF Gold Cup site in 2000....to see we advanced out of the group stage via coin toss.

Olympique_de_Marseille Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 (edited) @Alex maybe we should rename this thread again just "Camp Poutine 2020" and make a seperate thread for each game? Barbados Game #1 Jan 7th Barbados Game #2 Jan 10th Iceland Jan 15th Even if we don't get a stream, I'm sure we will analyse the lineups and tactics of each game seperately.

trc2014 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 I just realized Will Johnson wasn’t called. This makes me feel Herdman has closed the door to him for the national team. Olympique_de_Marseille 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the press release the identified players who were called and couldn’t make it (Cav, Hamel, Kaye), no mention of Johnson being asked. I think the fact he withdrew prior to the US game, coupled with his pst attitudes to the national team might have closed the door on him. hamiltonfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he is trialing somewhere and didnt want to goto Barbados without having a job lined up for the summer. narduch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dyslexic nam Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 I am kind of losing my mind knowing that this game is happening and that we can't watch it.

CanadaFan123 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 The good news is that in games with no coverage Canada *usually* does well. 7-0 vs. St. Lucia and 3-0 vs. St. VAG come to mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
