He's the man now and seems that those on the other side of the fence, media/suits/etc, look at him as being a "smart soccer guy" or whatever the fuck. He played CIS level soccer or whatever? Which would be like the depths of a pub league in any other developed footie nation on the planet? Then if you ask any long follower of Canadian footie, they'll be sure to note how Canadian footballers have little to no football smarts and is the core problem of the CMNT program.
Sigh.
Regardless, he's getting a shot and I'm doubtful it'll be just one year for him. He'll be here for 2+ because he's been pushed free of any blame prior, no doubt he's here for some time. He's considered totally fresh and free to fuck up a few times before they do anything about it. On top of that, removing him will do nothing to generate interest, nobody really knows of him or would care if he's gone. Firing Mariner would catch some attention tho, hence why I see a small chance of that happening.
