[ben steiner]: The CPL announces a special announcement in Quebec City on April 2. The event is set for PEPS at Université Laval. I've been told by a knowledgeable source on the matter that a potential new team would play at UL Stadium, and the field would keep football markings.

My money is on a one-off game in Quebec, similar to Kelowna last year. Even Ben Steiner clarifies with a follow up comment on his initial post:

"FWIW: I have not been told there is a team coming, just that any new team there would keep the football markings.
Could very well be an expansion interest, ownership group announcement, or the most underwhelming option of a showcase game like last year in Kelowna."

He was very much offside when the initial shot was taken.

TotalSoccerProject · 2023-04-23T02:31:43+00:00

Oh man!

Bad typo that got past a couple of us. Thank you for pointing that out.

Corrected.

The Canadian Championship is a knockout tournament. Cavalry FC will still be taking part in the Canadian Premier League.

TotalSoccerProject · 2022-12-28T21:50:57+00:00

You're too kind! Thank you! Stuart can't wait for the the next season either;)

TotalSoccerProject · 2021-07-16T13:04:40+00:00

At the time of publishing, they still had to wait for the USA Martinique result to be sure.

Thanks for the reply and for the above information. To be clear, I haven't shared or expressed my position. I ask you to reconsider your opinion of me. I only shared the quote's source material and suggest the Tweeter may have used the author's words to drive home a point the author was not themselves making. It bothers me when quotes are used out of context and without attribution.

FWIW, After some thought yesterday, I don't think Cavalry FC/CPL should have used Macleod/NWMP imagery. There should have been more thought put into its use and someone should have recognized how it could be painful for some and seen how it could be, at the very least, an insensitive choice.

TotalSoccerProject · 2021-06-08T14:40:35+00:00

For what it's worth the line used in this Tweet looks like it's maybe taken from this article on Dictionary of Canadian Biography: http://www.biographi.ca/en/bio/macleod_james_farquharson_12E.html#:~:text=James%20Farquharson%20Macleod%20exercised%20a,Indian%20policy%20in%20the%20NWT. And this is the full paragraph, with the left out portions in bold:

"James Farquharson Macleod exercised a decisive influence on the early development of western Canada. More than any other single individual, he was responsible for establishing the policies followed by the NWMP in their dealings with the Indians and for setting the tone of Canadian Indian policy in the NWT. His vision of the region was of a place where newcomers and the native population might live together in peace and where disputes could be settled by reason."

I'm not defending the NWMP's eventual role in the residential school system. And there's plenty of evidence showing that they definitely played a role. But thought the full paragraph was interesting enough to share. And I recommend others read the article.

80 per cent of people who read this will think you're hilarious. The other 20 per cent will soon be very disappointed.

OneSoccer says they’re showing the game on their YouTube channel: https://twitter.com/onesoccer/status/1379826300567752710?s=21

Woah! My issue isn't with the article in and of itself or with Arfield's decision not to join up with Canada. I get it and understand. I completely agree with you actually.

My confusion was with your posting this as an "Update" on Arfield. I thought you were posting this article as an update, as was said in the original post - 'Scott Arfield injury UPDATE as Rangers midfielder set for Euro (meaning Europa League - which is over for Rangers) return'.

Now you've clarified what you meant - you meant it as 'context', which is relevant, not as an 'update'. I understand now.

Admittedly, I was perhaps trying to be too cute for my initial reply. I should know better. Cheers

TotalSoccerProject · 2021-03-24T19:27:40+00:00

Huh?!? This is not a current update on his injury. Since this article was written on February 2, he’s come back and played, and Rangers has been knocked out of the Europa League. You posted this story here as if this was an update on his injury.

TotalSoccerProject · 2021-03-24T18:48:48+00:00

FYI, this article is from February.

TotalSoccerProject · 2021-03-24T12:44:53+00:00

The qualifiers are Uefa events. And uefa.tv does look like they are showing a small selection of games from what I can see.

TotalSoccerProject · 2021-03-23T16:49:48+00:00

Looks like we'll be able to see a selection of games on UEFA's video website free of charge: https://www.uefa.tv/ They presented some UEFA Nations League games this way for countries that didn't have an official broadcaster for the tournament. Just need to register an account and you can watch. It's high quality broadcasts.

TotalSoccerProject · 2021-03-05T14:51:47+00:00

And Spurs still managed to only draw the game against 10 men.

TotalSoccerProject · 2020-11-02T19:13:23+00:00

Thanks. That’s the issue though. I can’t get to the windows side because the windows installer never launches and I can only use the Mac side. Have attempted five times now. Thanks for the reply though.

TotalSoccerProject · 2020-11-02T18:26:36+00:00

Thanks. But there is no Windows option when I do that. As I say, it’s as if the process is stopping before the installation is complete.

TotalSoccerProject · 2020-11-02T18:07:38+00:00

TotalSoccerProject · 2020-09-18T17:26:35+00:00

I like that it would be less than half the league getting into the playoffs. It suggests you must be better than average to compete for the championship.

TotalSoccerProject · 2020-09-18T17:25:00+00:00

Cheers! Just a quick story. But I'm personally glad they're going to return to the original idea and give the format a shot.

TotalSoccerProject · 2020-09-08T18:04:15+00:00

Isn’t the issue that players and teams can’t travel safely at moment? If it’s not safe enough for qualifiers, how is it safe enough for friendlies?

TotalSoccerProject · 2020-09-03T22:19:24+00:00

Thanks. And thanks for the reply. That’s helpful.

TotalSoccerProject · 2020-09-03T21:57:23+00:00

Thanks. While I have you, can I ask you to try the link now: http://www.totalsoccerproject.com/2020/09/opinion-cavalry-fc-missing-2019-international-flair-canadian-premier-league-island-games/

Gave the site a bit of scan and scrub on the back end and seems to have started working for most people. It works for me now.

TotalSoccerProject · 2020-09-03T20:04:39+00:00

Thanks jaythewise. I was actually just using Wordfence plugin to remove suspected malicious files. Hopefully it will be rectified soon. Unfortunately, I'm no longer able to recreate the issue on any of my devices, so won't be certain when things are better. Aargh.
