This morning Marc Weber of the Vancouver Province is reporting that the Whitecaps brain trust has decided to release barely healthy and hardly used defender Mouloud Akloul.
Basically it comes down to the fact that he wasn't getting minutes because he simply wasn't good enough. With Tom Soehn being the driving force in signing him to his initial contract, one would have to think that he simply never regained the form that he had shown previous to his horrific ankle injury last April.

Personally I am not to upset by this turn of events because Mouloud still owes me lunch from a bet we made last year. I am still yet to receive said lunch and will continue to hold a grudge until I do.
The transfer window is about to re-open and this will give the 'Caps even more room to work with under the salary cap. Expect to see a couple more guys get cut as the club looks to add a few more players to their 30 man roster.
