Okay your structure points stands. However in HFX they don't have anything else to support professionally, nevertheless a professional team to compare too. So it works for them. I know you picked the part about York Lions being the worst stadium, but left out that it should be one of the best. I'm curious on your thoughts (and anyone else who's been to a York 9/United game) what do you think would be a better suited stadium, when getting one built is near impossible.

… wait, how much people do you have on ignore lol.

Outside of fan attendance…York Lions Stadium is easily the worst in the league, when it should be one of the best. I hate how this key point is being understated.

Hipsters lol….I’m far from that @Rocket Robin, as I’ve lived in the suburbs my entire life, and have had zero interest of living downtown. I think you need to learn what a hipster is before using it. Location, location, location. Those talking about how lamport is bad because a stop isn’t open on certain days or because it’s old is stupid. Comparing TFC reserves is another misperception that you are alluding to that it’s minor league. I was just there helping my sister-in-law move into her $2,500 hotel condo, and I was on the balcony and seen right into the stadium. I’ll say it again…location, location, location. It’s in the heart of an area where you can do a lot of things whether before or after. It’s a spot that caters to the drivers, and the public transporters regardless if you have to walk or hop on a transfer bus. It’s surrounded by young professionals who are always looking for things to do….NONE of that exist at York Lions Stadium. So if you don’t think Lamport isn’t ideal cool just don’t say York Lions Stadium is better - cause that’s BS. Yes Lamport is old, yes it needs sprucing up. But only deep pocket owners who are willing to do what’s necessary for a club to survive in the GTA should be required. Lamport or not. The team needs an actual stadium, not a university stadium, not a stadium that has tracks. The city is big enough to have two professional teams that play in two separate leagues, but also participate in two of the same competitions. The experience doesn’t have to be the same, but it should be comparable.

I've said it all depends on what happens at the Nations League. If we win, I'm predicting a real B team for the Gold Cup that is coined as "expanding the pool in preparation for Copa America and the World Cup Qualifying". Due to all the things you listed above like guys sorting out their futures, some needing long overdue rest, and some will just simply want to spend time with their families I don't think we see 50% of what you have listed as the starting XI (if we win CNL)

His future seems up in the air at JR. Not a first choice option, and his contact is up this summer…. Will be interesting where be ends up if he doesn’t re-sign.

Yea he's out. His contract is also up this summer, so he is another player with a situation...although that hasn't stopped him from showing up before.

Currently I would break the squad into three categories. There's18 "A - Key Players" who I would say as long as they are healthy they will be called. They are... GK: Borjan, St. Clair, Crepeau DF: Laryea, Johnston, Vitoria, Adekugbe, Miller, Kennedy, Corneilius MF: Eustaqiuo, Kone, Osorio, Hutchinson, Kaye FW:s David, Larin, Davies, Buchanan, Hoilett Then there's about 15 on the bubble guys that could go up or down like... GK: McGill DF: Edwards, Waterman, Zator, Heibert, Henry, ZBG MF: Piette, Wotherspoon, Loturi, Fraser FW: Ugbo, Brym, Millar, Cavallini Then the "B team" is made up of these guys.... GK: Gazdov DF: Abzi, Farsi, Petrasso, MacNaughton, Norman Jr, Raposo, Cordova MF: Choiniere, H. Paton, B. Paton, Ahmed, Priso, Rea, Baldisimo FW: Akinola, Corbeanu, Nelson, Shaffelburg, Marshall-Rutty, Russell-Rowe, Bair Based on this we could see a a B team at the Gold Cup with a starting XI like this... Ugbo-Brym Millar-Loturi-Wotherspoon-Piette-Farsi Heibert-Waterman-Zator St. Clair

Facking Gerry Dobson 🤣

Man it hasn’t even been a quarter of the season yet, and your tune is already changing. Rida was supposed to be better than Wanyama, MTL was supposed to be far better at developing players and having actual plans for young guys….

He might be leading our middle come the Gold Cup. So be prepared to continue to see him.

No way. You gotta be more than that to get the membership package. Red + White was the $50 one. And I didn’t get shit, is why I’m saying that too lol.

Tough…he got a toe to it before taking out Grealish. I don’t get it. VAR is turning into NBA reffing - always subjective. Edit: in that instance, the referee should’ve been sent to the camera to rethink his decision.

Tuchel should be sacked lol

Hopefully he has a breakout performance at the Gold Cup which propels him to new levels. He'll only be 22 in the summer, and has shown already lots of promise.

It's those fast twitch muscles

Okay so the CSB will change their deal, but even with that the end doesn't seem near. The pay equity vs pay equality civil war is still going on.

Exactly how I feel. It was just easy to blame Bontis and Chochrane.

Now what….don’t believe the hype.

Dreams 😂

It's not but if the Vee's are given an allotment it will certainly be sold out fast.

Looks like it will be another free-for-all for those 2000 or so tickets...good ole Covid days

Here's the video where JH talks roster planning...

Naw man you’ve gone to far. Jamaica was horrible. NL Honduras was horrendous. Are you a Valour fan? Because then I would understand these takes lol

lol no way. It would be euphoric. It could be slicker, but when the ball bounces it’s definitively true.
