USL teams have big rosters, I think we need a couple years to get on their level. At one point though they were talking about inviting Canadian teams to an "Interleague Cup" they were planning pre-Covid, it would be cool to see local rivalries like Pacific vs. Tacoma, York9 vs. TFC-II, Forge vs. Rochester, HFX vs. a New England team, etc

Yeah, first tiebreaker is head-to-head, so I think you'd look at a "mini-table" of the 5 involved teams. Forge have 8 from the games involving Forge-Cavs-York9-Atleti-Pacific At least one of the rest must have less in the event of a Cavs-York9 draw (needed for the 5-way tie) i.e. anyone whose taken 4+ points off the Eddies/HFX/Valour

Article on the league's website says Kah indicated a domestic fullback was on trial and set to be signed. Eddie Edward? Did Chris Serban re-up in Calgary?

Roberto Saputo at Bologna - is this a coincidence?

Dave's not here tifo?

There would have been enough dates, particularly if they dropped next year's GC. The format was already flimsy at best and the lack of a "complete rankings cycle" exposed it further, thankfully we appear to have caught a break (for once?) The only question now is how they can lay an easy path for the US and Mexico but still have them play each other

Dunfield is killing me, being partisan is fine but don't yell into the mic ffs

Bekker could grab a free kick or two against some poorly organized walls and make some highlight reels early on

If Quebecois strikers are coming out of retiremne t If Quebecois strikers are coming out of retirement then Ali Gerba has to be available!

tbf the Island team hardly needs to do preseason training in a warm-weather climate, but if the other 6 teams are going they might as well squeeze in!

Good call on Blake Smith as the mystery Smith, he got cut from Cincinnatti last month and just recently "liked" a tweet from Mark Village about Pacific FC. That was me on reddit, I think I was confusing Jose Pina with "Pena" and assumed it was Adrian. AFAIK Adrian Pena isn't involved.

The seven deadly shinpads

is Steph Labbé still in Calgary?

Thank you, duly noted
