You nailed it Regs. Youth soccer is a cesspool of politics. The things I have seen and witnessed is pathetic.
Its why I grab a coffee and just stand in the corner by myself when my kids play.
Costa Rica was at one time down and out for the 4th spot and managed to pull it off to get to the qualifier game. Kudos to them.
To me Jamica was the most dissapointing team and should have finished 4th.
Covid and politics and lack of organization cost them. They should have been a 4th place...
That is Jim Brennan in the booth with Wheels I believe.
With that said this is hard to watch I am shocked someone hasnt been injured yet. That field is in shambles.
After going thru the workd cup qualifers and the pressure each game placed on the players and fans today seemed like a snooze fest.
Good win but need to be much better in the final third. Curaco looked tired after two games. Hopefully the Honduras game Monday increases the intensity.
Here is a intersting clue from the toronto star of where that money banked up may be going..
The letter included one big clue. In 2018, Canada Soccer signed a deal with an organization called Canadian Soccer Business, which is tied to the owners of the five-year-old Canadian Premier League...

Here's my question: Canada Soccer programs that Bontis mentioned (youth teams, paralympics, futsal, coaching, refs, etc) were going to continue even if #canMNT didn't qualify for Qatar. With WC money now coming in, how can they not afford those programs and also pay...
A trial balance provides much more detail but here are some quick points...
1. CSA right now has over 14 million dollars cash. Does this include the fifa world cup grant? Does not appear so as the grant would come in 2022.
2. CSA currently only has 3 million Liabilities and that is it leaving...
