I do, and I agree with you having your own segregated section for members. What I do not agree with is the general attitude that no other section matters, everyone else is not a fan, and quite frankly you could care less if the rest of the stadium was empty. There is no desire to grow and include all Canadians into supporting the national program. Just your group and your group only. You would have no objection to a 1000 seat Voyageurs only stadium for home matches. And to me that is just disgraceful thinking.

This is utter trash. This organization is just a bunch of bullies You won't escape that. You want to ban people who don't think like you, kick them out of your section in a public stadium, you name it. This is not something the CSA should be proud of. I dont get why we have to argue about it. I just want to talk canadian soccer on the forum, not this dog and pony show about discrimination. Why can't you fellas just talk and disagree without name calling and telling people to leave and multi man gang attacks trying to shut me out.

Let me try to repeat a bit. Differing opinions are great... I have no fear of someone disagreeing with me. My concerns were people calling me names such as ignorant or telling me to get lost. That is not differing opinions, it is simply trying to snuff out other perspectives. I wish someone here could see that, at least one person.

You define "passionate supporters" as Voyageurs..... the rest of us Canadians who want to show up the games don't matter. The measure of blocking off the stadium was with Voyageurs in mind; keeping other Canadians out because they were not considered real supporters. That was a big part of my issue. We don't have to be like the Voyageurs to love and follow our national program.

I specifically asked that question about the small "voyageurs only" stadium during my promotion of opening up the stadium and you guys said you would prefer that closed venue scenario. I find that is counter productive to growing the sport in Canada (we need to create fans). I do not consider this an ignorant viewpoint, just one that is different from the view of your group

Yes,however, calling a new person ignorant when they share an opinion (which ended up being correct), does not make the Voyageurs look like a great group of people. Telling a new person to leave, quit, go away, or whatever is not going to reflect well. And, wanting to stunt growth of the Canadian fanbase because you are afraid a group of opposition supporters could buy tickets, is just ridiculous. I get that you guys want our home matches to be in a 1000 seat junky stadium with only Voyageurs in attendance; however, that does not grow the game in Canada.
