Match Thread: Island Games - Group Stage - Sep. 15, 2020 - HFX Wanderers v Pacific

[narduch]

Match is at 8pm ET on One Soccer.

Pacific is already eliminated.

I will take a look at what HFX needs to do to advance after the Cavs v Forge match.

It's going to hurt a little to play spoiler and knock Halifax out of this tournament. I like them more than Calgary and Hamilton. Better than another loss though

Yeah, no.

With their spot in the finals secured, I am looking forward to seeing Sanoh getting the start.

As expected Hart is playing mostly fringe players as this is a dead rubber.  Looking forward to seeing Sanoh and Firth in action.

I just hope Morelli stays healthy or doesn't get sent off.

Well this didn't age well...

If you're very, very, still and very, very, quiet you can ever so faintly hear off in the distance the tormented screaming of Rob Gale.

Goes without saying, but not the way Wanderers want to go into the final.  

Not at all.

Yeah, not exactly a surge of momentum going into Saturday.  

But maybe Hart kicks a few garbage cans in the pregame speech and gets them fired up to make sure it doesn’t happen again.

Kurt came on and I turned my TV off.

Halifax fans on twitter are claiming the result was 100% intentional. I'm baffled

God I wish they'd get rid of him

[narduch]

Well we will see on Saturday if the strategy paid off.

HFX has always played Forge tough.

[Terry_Canuck]

Didn't see that coming...slightly concerned but nothing that a couple of rum and cokes can't clear. 

Agree with the others, less Kurt and more Laura.

LOL.  Sheesh.  Tough crowd.  Rewatched and have to say I pretty much took his side on every topic which was raised for debate.

Can't wait for Saturday.
