    That risk is where Richie's ability to play LB can come in handy. Especially if JMR shows some improvement. Not saying Matarrita is the guy we should be going for, I like Reggie's idea of Joao Moutinho, but if you can't trade for a guy like Chase Gasper, I think we could do a lot worse than rolling the dice on Matarrita.

    Matarrita?
    Maybe.
    With great pause and lots of consternation.
    Certainly not for or more than his FC Cincinnati salary!
    Suspect he will want more.
    Has depth value.
    Perhaps for/between those 'guaranteed' dollars at/of NYCFC.
    https://www.osdbsports.com/mls/playe.../soccer-345339
    For whatever reasons, mostly/particularly those of injury outlined by jloome.
    He seems to have appeared in just over half of the clubs played matches over last 7 seasons.
    Fresh memories of Josmer!
    On this, leaning into...

    I'm trying to get someone with admin access to fix the access issue, unfortunately it requires super powers I don't have. Hang in there.

    As always, thanks 'not almighty' Oldtimer.

    Appreciate the clarification.

    Talking of hangin' in,
    Maybe TMI?
    Last night,
    Dogs were purring,
    Cats were barking,
    My wife was imbibing, smiling, laughing, having fun enticing,
    So much for No Nut November.
    Really tried!
    Made it that far but she broke me.
    Happy wife, happy life.
    I'm out!

    Try seeing if you can navigate to the "Football" section of the board, then "World Cup Updates and Discussion." I think you may be able to get into the threads, even if the direct link doesn't work for you. Let me know.

    This might be the most random post I have ever read.

    Congrats on the intercourse though.

    FWIW...

    Still having an issue.
    If 'navigating' is through 'Football' then either the 'Canadian Soccer Forum' and the 'International Football Forum'.
    Then the thread/s are still inaccessible/locked to me.
    Though I could likely still not be doing something right?

    In 'Canadian Soccer Forum'...
    -'Canada's Road To World Cup 22' is closed/locked with Red E-Mail & Lock Symbols.
    -'World Cup Thread' started by Oldtimer yesterday @ 9:58 with Black E-Mail & Lock Symbols.

    Got a feeling this thread will be dead until after atleast the group stages of the WC.

    Or it will be full of naming random players from smaller nations on the World Cup who play in lower leagues and we'll be like they definitely don't make as much as MLS could pay, we should sign them

    Looks like the threads are in the RPB members channels - join the RPB or one of the Mods might be able to assist to make them public (or join for $25)

    He is earning some extra cash on his next deal today. Can definitely cover more ground than 35 year old Michael Bradley.

    Why not just create a new thread here on the main board? It would get a lot more traffic than being hidden in one of the sub forums.

    Thank you benito for confirmation support.
    Thank you Bushmancan for further insight... at the moment RPB Membership privilege; understood.
    Thank you Oldtimer for continued effort. Appreciated. I will wait to see.

    No. Decision of RPB leadership has been that the forum will follow an organized structure. It's not my call, but I will enforce it.

    Man, seeing Larin in an Osmow's shawarma commercial got me misty.

    I'd take him as a DP striker. Hell yeah, why not? Track record, Canadian.

    It's very rare in this country that we ever try to have any sort of definable national identity. I'm not sure it's as healthy as is presumed. Respecting all cultures is great and all, but so is having a shared history.

    And it's pretty rare that Canadian athletes get endorsement deals of any sort.

    (Or even just athletes in Canada. Instant flashbacks to the Raghib Ismail "Rocket Fuel" Pepsi Ads, from the McNall/Candy/Gretzky Argos era).

    My aim would be at a different target.
    To dream... the Criscito/Mavinga replacement; for a ton of cabbage!
    Seems to be enjoying a fair amount of highlights in various WC corporate/international media commercial campaigns.
    This one must be a shoe-in for any advert of the year competitions.
    It is really cool; especially @ 43sec.

    it is, but which one of these guys is the potential replacement... because I think MLSE would have to sell the club to afford most of them.
