2014 BC Provincial Cup Draws

[Regs]

Date: Monday, March 31st, 2014
Time: 7-9PM

Use this thread to discuss before, during, and briefly after all negative stuff about the draw like how crappy the stream is, how you could do so much better and who the drunkest personality "on air" is.

For the love of God, do not discuss the actual draw.



Here's the embedded stream (should go LIVE right at 7PM)

I should add: The streaming of the draw is a BC SOCCER initiative. It's amazing it was never thought of before!

So kudos to them.

So I'm hearing provincials start this weekend coming up? Is it just the u21 or all cups?

Usually the BCs start the 3rd weekend of April... around the 17th or so as far as I can remember... first 2 rounds in April, then the semis, then a weekend break with the finals on Mother's Day weekend.

We are experiencing technical troubles with the LIVE Stream of the adult Provincial Cup Draw. We apologize for the inconvenience and will have draw updates posted on our website and social media as quickly as possible. Thank you for your understanding

WTF... think someone would have run a test run prior to the big draw.... hmmm.....

 

[outkast]

its almost like the fvsl needs to start running streams for bcsoccer

So they announce on Twitter to check their website and facebook for draw results... FFS, why not use twitter itself?

Clearly the technical difficulties lie between computer and chair

Facebook page says that it is "internet difficulties"... perhaps someone is on the telephone line, remember those days? Waiting for someone to get off so that you could use your modem? Oh well.. maybe only you masters guys remember that.

I feel like I am getting the run-around... BCsoccer.net says "check twitter"... twitters says "Check facebook"... facebook says "pound sand".

(Most embarrassing is I had to use my 14 year olds facebook account...)

BC Soccer at its finest once again.

*BC soccer thinking it genius to host live feed of draw= opening second*...then reality hits= the rest

 

[cascadesoccer]

Having "internet difficulties" yet can update Facebook status?

 

[Regs]

That was my thought exactly as well.

TTP ‏@betterbastards 25s
@1BCSoccer Shoc-king. Is there a bit in the LTDP for improving "your" Internet?

Funny thing is they managed to stream last year with no difficulties.

Heard that Rd 1 of A Cup features an Imperial Cup rematch -- Inter vs. Columbus

I've just posted the draw results in all the dedicated Cup threads.

Continue the BC Soccer lovefest here, post actual draw reactions/discussions in those threads.

What about the U21 draw

 

[Regs]

TTP is strictly an over 21 venue, sorry.

Until Mr. Base chimes in

 

[Captain Shamrock]

U21 isn't real soccer.
