Bison44 Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Maybe some more corporate money will come into CSA coffers if the mens team can keep the good times rolling. Maybe if Buchanon jerseys start flying off the shelves. johnyb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, as to the second part, they don't really. Cleary has 38 minutes so far and Son hasn't featured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I imagine that will change as the season wears on, but it looks like the younger guys will be featuring also for Sigma so they'll be getting some sort of minutes.

gigi riva Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Wouldn't it be cool if CONCACAF had a u21 tournament similiar to what UEFA has Nate3322, dyslexic nam, toontownman and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The champion team's sponsor gets bragging rights for the year with CEO bets and all of that fun stuff. That is easily feasible in my opinion.

It has to fit into their overall corporate marketing strategy/branding. Then 250k becomes a pittance, otherwise, you're not getting any money. A ROI also needs to be delivered as you'll get dumped when a new head of marketing/CEO comes abroad every 5 years or so and/or budgets need to be trimmed to make earnings. TD is involved with York United as they're bankers to the ownership group. CIBC & BMO were previous sponsors of CSA. In the US, CIBC is involved in major sports sponsorship but I believe they have pulled out in Canada. BMO went all in for the MLS for their soccer strategy. Scotia is the lead Concacaf sponsor because Mexico is their biggest market after Canada. But nobody in Canada seems to care as when the CCL hits Toronto, they basically ignore it. They didn't buy tv ads when it was on TSN even when TFC made it to the final. I don't think even the head office employees got free tickets to the matches.

I think they brought something like 4 players that can play in central midfield and 2 CBs since he was promoted to the first team. I thought all French football was skint. If they think he is first team material, should probably sort out a loan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VinceA Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 One thing to remember is that if he plays for Nice and gets some minutes there is a very good chance he gets into the French youth teams. If only we would actually make an effort to host youth camps. Ol'Bill 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shway Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 I also wish the U23 tournament was biennial. There's a massive gap from U20 to the seniors. toontownman, TOcanadafan, NVsoccer and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need a Concacaf or Joint Concacaf/Conmebol u23 championship like the Uefa U21 European Championships. U23 makes more sense imo than u21 or u20 as it relates to the Olympics and bridges that u20 gap as you mention. Also a good place to test out whether its beneficial to combine the Gold Cup/Copa once in a while (wouldn't want to lose either but maybe once every four they could combine) as has been talked about recently mainly by pundits? A pipe dream but especially for our program it would be a huge stepping stone to sustain our momentum for the long term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
