Unnamed Trialist Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 (edited) When he says he's trying to get the MNT to be the hunter not the hunted, he didn't expect that to flow over into financials. Have to say: by raising gender equity it's clear that has backfired on the men and that the individual takes from Qatar will now be lower than if they'd kept negotiating in private.

I have a theory that they were just oblivious to the implications of how they went about it, given that they are largely young men in their 20s. Probably there was a triggering offer or situation that riled a bunch of them. They started discussing how they would fight it. They asked or mused about whether the women are treated the same way. They are likely aware of the USWNTs fight and victory in the courts. They decide to make an ask that floats all boats. Being young and inexperienced in such things (yes, even Atiba in this case) they put out a statement that they wrote themselves without discussing it with the CanWNT, not realizing that chivalry does not equal respect and that the WNT weren’t going to cheer them for championing equal percentages on their behalf.

Joe1973 Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 Anybody listen John's interview at end of game? Caught a subtle jab and disappointilment at Vancouver fans. He said that it was unfortunate of course regarding the whole cancelation debacle, BUT this game had trouble selling even 2 weeks ago before all this trouble. I like that about him. We could blame CSA, we could blame players, but fans have also take that on their shoulders because this game was not selling either way. Yes I understand that the game on Sunday would have driven up sales numbers though. red card and PegCityCam 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought he seemed that way during the post game interview. BTW I was glad to see Johnston reference the fans in an apologetic way, he didn't directly apologize but he did a helluva lot better job than Atiba.

He didn’t have that look - that youthful self I really noticed that in the post game interview a little moreso than the earlier one, especially when he should have been somewhat relieved and happy. In both he seemed to have lost some of his usual zip. Maybe that comes from being placed in the middle of the problem and having to placate both sides.

I put my money on he’s definitely done after this World Cup As always, it depends on what else is available, but I would agree that our latest fiasco may linger in the back of his mind. However, to put a more optimistic spin on it, the quicker it gets resolved and the more time passes afterwards, the less likely it factors in. If Canada overachieves on the field at the world cup, and these off field issues are history, it will be good vibes all around and the whole debacle will simply be a footnote, alongside the cancelled covid camp, the qualifying "home" game in Chicago, etc. All part of the journey.

Bison44 Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 Cripes he has worked for the CSA for 11 years..he has to be assimilated by now. And remember he re upped, he could have left but chose to stay after putting in 7years with the women.

red card Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 (edited) Finance Football released salaries (not all confirmed) of managers in this year's World Cup. Herdman is 26th making 480k euros (C$633k). Only more than Wales, Costa Rica and 4 CAF nations but not Morocco. Most expensive manager Canada will face at World Cup is Martinez who makes 1.2 million euros. Mexico tops Concacaf with Tata making 2.9 million euros. Flick is highest paid at 6.5 million euros. Note euro is today basically on par with the US$. https://financefootball.com/2022/07/04/best-paid-head-coaches-in-2022-fifa-world-cup/ Edited July 22, 2022 by red card Metro, Unnamed Trialist, johnyb and 3 others 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A country that had gone without a spot in the World Cup in over 35+ years, wouldn’t have been luring any big name, pricey coaches. Now that has changed. I wonder if Herdman has any bonus structures set in his contract (through 2026 right?) or opt out ability or even an automatic raise. johnyb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
