    Carl Robinson landed a 3.5 year coaching contract with Newcastle Jets in A-League. They are 2nd last in the table so will see if he can right the ship. All in all its a step down from managing the Whitecaps.

    He is winning the game of life. I tip my hat to him.

    Who has figured out how to work in the nicest places in the world, and do the work you love, better than Carl Robinson?

    Can't say a bad word about him. He's always been a pro, his players loved him, he (and their coaches) did a great job with their biggest legit prospect. Tactically he's very old school English and defensive, and I'm not sure how that fits into the modern game.

    Darren O'Dea talks about his time in Toronto



    Onesoccer has a lot of good Canadian soccer content right now
    “Years have gone by and I’ve finally learned to accept myself for who I am: a beggar for good football.

    I go about the world, hand outstretched, and in the stadiums I plead: ‘A pretty move, for the love of God.’

    And when good football happens, I give thanks for the miracle and I don’t give a damn which team or country performs it.”

    -Eduardo Galeano

    Interesting, looks like JDG has found his next footy role after his departure from Ottawa with the Fury's demise earlier this year, with the prospective new League 1 Ontario team in Barrie.

    Giovinco's team Al Hilal got booted out of the Asian CL after most of the team came down with COVID-19. Apparently Giovinco was one of them.

    Looks like former Red Oscar Cordon is now the coach of Woodbridge Strikers Boys 2006 team.
    He was a player on Woodbridge League 1 Ontario team up to about three seasons ago.

    Are these youth teams sanctioned or rouge like the CSL is?

    This is a different CSL than the rogue league. It's completely sanctioned by the Ontario Soccer Association.

    The youth CSL is called the Central Soccer League and runs up to U18. www.cslsoccer.com I played in this league when I was in youth soccer. It's the competitive rep youth league for the GTA region (from Toronto in the west to about Peterborough in the east up to about Muskoka in the north). There are leagues for different regions in Ontario (SRSL - south, ERSL - east, WRSL-west).


    Completely different from the Canadian Soccer League.

    Jordan Hamilton signed with Indy 11 of USL Championship after seeing very little action with the Crew following the trade from the Reds. The Toronto native made 6 appearances for the Crew over parts of two seasons for a total of 69 minutes of action.

    Hey, raise your hand if you knew that Ashtone Morgan had the assist on RSL's lone goal in their last exhibition game... 35 second mark of video

    https://www.rsl.com/post/2021/04/08/...n-over-phoenix

    Sounds like Ashtone has a real shot at becoming a starter

    Funny seeing him in a position of authority. I wouldn't have expected it, but I know people can mature.

    Ryan Telfer started and played 62 minutes for Trinidad last night against Bahamas in WC qualifying. Could be his last call for Trinidad, as the link below describes, this was the “Nassau nightmare” - they bizarrely couldn’t win, so Trinidad went out, and St Kitts is the shock winner of that group.

    Our USMNT players will be silently glad to see T&T gone.

    So underrated it's criminal. Smart player, hardly ever sets a foot wrong.

    We've had a few guys over the years who didn't meet their potential because it just wasn't recognized. Sam Cronin was such a good passer; my lord. That guy could drop a ball on a dime from sixty yards, but everyone used him as a DM instead of a number eight or in the hole. Just wasted. Ended out shortening his career, too.

    ^ That's cool. Thanks!

    He only played 1 game for TFC on loan in 2007, but that makes him a Red .

    I actually remember him playing for the Lynx.
