Can Canada pull this one off? Would a draw be a good result?
For me, a draw would be a very good result, one that would instill a bit more hope that we, as a soccer nation, can still qualify.
I see reading around the intraweb there are those that are going off on the deep-end a bit and not only calling for Dale Mitchell's head (understandable to a certain degree) but also heaping the blame squarely on the CSA. Right then.
Seriously, I'm all for pushing for change but this is why Supporter groups in this country are a bit of a joke when it comes to effective communication. Read that open letter. If it was directed at you, what would you make of it?
If Canada wins tomorrow, and I pray that they do, what do you think all these nutbars are going to be saying?
Please Canada, for nothing else but my pure TTP enjoyment, get that result in Mexico!

"Just Wait" - Wait for what? WTF are you going to do?An open letter to the CSA Board of Directors from a disenchanted fan

Gentlemen
I'm writing to you today to make it known that I, and the majority of Canadian soccer supporters, are thoroughly disgusted that Dale Mitchell was on Sunday's flight out of Montreal en route to Mexico. He should have been heading home to British Columbia after Saturday's disaster in Montreal.
Your unwillingness to demand that Dale falls on his sword or be pushed onto it is appalling. What it says to the supporters of the national team is that nothing has changed when it comes to the CSA. As always, there is no Accountability. 1 point from a possible 6 out of two home games is simply not acceptable.
The last 5-6 months of relative peace, calm and co-operation are over. Canadian supporters will not be quiet and patient. If we don't win on Wednesday (and a win is the only option), it's going to get VERY ugly. If you thought last year was uncomfortable, just wait. All I can say to you is PRAY FOR A WIN on Wednesday, and even a win on Wednesday might not save this round.
Sometimes I wonder why I even care about Canadian soccer when its so obvious that the people at the top of the CSA pyramid don't (or if they do care, they don't have the stones to do what needs to be done). Shame on all of you!
Sincerely,
Dino Rossi
