    Tie yourself to the goal post. Then figure out what message to put across your chest. Easy peazy. You also wont get tackled according to the brilliant CSA by-law 1900-03

    Did @SpursFlu end up going to the game?  Is this his protest?

    Quick google search: somebody with the user name Slomojo2005 seems to be a cfl fan from hamilton. CFL/CSB/Hamilton connection makes me suspicious.

    I am far from anti-business or anti-contract. I very much dislike the culture of cancelling people you do not agree with, which is very common from the anti-business, anti-capitalist types, who do not respect the diversity of opinion, even though they champion diversity in every other way. 
    But that said, Mr. Mitchell, I think insulting fans for assuming (correctly) your identity is not very becoming of you. The CSB may not be legally required to be transparent, but not being transparent isn't a good look, with all due respect, sir.

    Right, new to the board and you open with insults..got it. Theres 2 or 3 other threads where this topic has been picked apart from every angle, all day...by people with little brains and too much time on their hands. Your point was already made 100x today. Your pro-business, pro-contract in place stance is redundant. Your aggresive behaviour now reaffirms my feelings that youre a troll.

    Do you think we will simply be ranked higher than Mexico, or do see us consistently beating/finishing higher than Mexico in Gold Cups Semis/Finals and in other Nations Leagues/tournaments? "Over the next 10 years" seems like a stretch. "In 10 years" seems more likely but still doubtful. Just because we are improving our youth systems doesn't mean they wont adapt and improve themselves.

    Football Finances, Population, domestic leagues, climate, current organization are all in their favour.

    As a Spanish speaker, and rather used to how goals are called, I find some of the excess okay, some unbearable. To me a really long call on a goal that is run of the mill, not justified. Depending on the result of the match, as well--don't get overly excited for a third goal in a 3-0 game. 
    Then what you hear a lot in Central America, these weird echo-reverb effects, or throwing in music, it's really trashy. 
    Sometimes, if all goals are called with an extended "goooooooool", it all loses value. Some goals are golazos, most are not. Some come at critical moments, others do not. 
    From a Canadian perspective I think this was one of the most critical goals in our entire campaign, it was the watershed goal. Not just because of when it came, just before the half, and drawing Mexico at Azteca, but its character: slice through the middle of the Mexican defence that was properly positioned and not in transition. For me, it is our best goal and the finish is outstanding. Maybe the Phonzie vs. Panama had greater psychological impact for fans, but this is where we really made a huge statement to the entire region.
    Meaning: if I were a Canadian broadcaster, this would deserve a huge, over the top call. 
    I really have not minded Wheeler's goal calls as long as he is not forcing anything. When he's been really excited and he is "sincere" and not fabricating, I've liked them.

    This will no doubt be disappointing news for Brad Marchand.
    Here are the lowlights from our previous match against them (a 4-0 defeat), which despite being a die-hard supporter of this time for about 40 years, I have absolute no recollection of even though this match was played just 5 and a half years ago. It apparently was played in October 2016, just after we were eliminated from reaching the Hex & as such we don't have a manager for this match (Floro had left, so Michael Findlay was there as caretaker). All four goals were extremely easily preventable. Only a few players left from this squad - Borjan, Piette & Osorio by the looks of it - but I hope in vain Morocco uses this as their main source/impression of Canada:

    Which gates are you going in? There's good gates and bad ones at BMO. Try using the one on the northside closest to the train station. Even for the Panama game it was quick.
