Forge wasn't going to be able to practice before the CCL game.

This way Forge get a high $ making rivalry like match when we can all go back to games, probably against Bono, Zavs & the like.

And now confirmed

TBD remains TBD

LOL... Thanks for the clarification - sorry if I came over a tad blunt - I deal with disinformation at work about Covid and that mindset of "check everything" sometimes leaks into this forum
...

Seen no confirmation apart from one tweet showing a screen grab of a 3 person discussion including Wheeler with a headline below.

Forge tweeting out information this morning

Confirmation they have been trying but just havn't been able to get Public Health...

Assuming CPL approached, they would have to provide protocols for how stuff would be done, same as MLSE/MLS did.

Its not like MLS just went up to Public Health Canada & Public Health...

They have known since the Island games they would need to get approval for training at some point. They couldn't get their ducks in a row - or wouldn't do so because it costs too much.

Pure spec...

Quarantine in and out not really possible under those circumstances to get a game in between. Game would not have been allowed in Ontario at the time so TFC wasn't coming back to Canada & Hamilton...

That post does not surprise me and is in keeping with issues I have with Ti-Cat management & philosophy.

I used to be a Ti-Cat fan.

Grew up as one.

As Rollins indicated, the teams knew about this date weeks ago

the inability of Forge to train is not the CSA or TFC's fault - that lies with the CPL/Forge either not asking the province...

I support a team, not a project.


Sorry, but NEVER give up on a trophy.

LOL


The winner gets a trip to play Club Leon of LigaMx.

Mavinga tweeted he is on his way here already. The two week quarantine period is being baked in.


I doubt the lockout happens - owners are pretty much getting what they want out of the...

Not sure why you think this won't happen. TFC has already said they want it at BMO. Both teams will be able to practice under current quarantine rules. A game without fans would be approved by...

We have a deadline

The push was because CCL was supposed to start next month - which made no sense given everything going on right now.

Get the strong feeling the MLS season won't start until April.

No clear process means whatever CONCACAF decides is in their best interest.

I think we be in then

That having been said, Forge gotta beat a Haitian team in a one off - not something Canadian...

The TFC training bubble is turf. As is Ivor Wynne II.

Travel restrictions within CONCACAF have postponed competitions through until at least November, likely into 2021. I get the strong suspicion that the 2020 CCL isn't going to finish & the 2021 is...

Manning indicated this week this won't happen until after TFC's season is over.
