dyslexic nam Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 Everyone seriously needs to take a break from this thread (I did). Nothing constructive is being discussed at this point - it is just a dull roar of complaints against “the enemy” and has been for pages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canadians don't typically say "mate", but if they do chances are they have a backup country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My back up teams are Nigeria and the USA (in that order). The closer we get to competing with the Americans, the more I have begun to dislike them, so it's a love hate sorta thing when it comes to the USMNT. I understand the lockdowns in Melbourne are nightmarish. Hope you are doing okay. Stay safe! Shway, SthMelbRed and johnyb 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This thread is a good example of (one of the reasons) why I had to take a break from all things soccer for awhile. Yes. Shut it down. There is no point to it anymore. @Gian-Luca 's jokes aside, there won't be any friendlies in December. January and Camp Poutine is (hopefully) what's next on the agenda: https://www.canadiansoccernews.com/forums/topic/77567-camp-poutine-2021-january-friendly-matches-panama/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand the lockdowns in Melbourne are nightmarish. Hope you are doing okay. Stay safe! It was rough for the 3 months that we were in strict lockdown. We're on 3 weeks with zero cases, now, though, and we've re-opened with restrictions. We've been able to catch up with the in-laws over the last couple of weeks, and I've been able to get into the pub for a few pints with close mates, as well. We're hoping that we can return to full football training next week, too. Things are definitely getting better. I appreciate your thoughts. johnyb, costarg, Obinna and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
