    Women's provincial cup

    Too bad I'm not worried about the thoughts of a website stalker who pops on various forums here to drop his pointless and not very well thought out posts without any clue about coaching, managing, developing, or administering the game....especially the women's game where I'm pretty sure you...

    Thanks to Regs, Conductor, WW for playing in the sandbox this week...hell, even some island folk...some weeks it's just like casting a well baited line into a stocked pond of fish willing to bite on anything. :) It does amaze me how 2 months ago everyone was saying "there are 5 or 6...

    Thanks for the recap Vike...good to hear some comments on the actual play in the game and not just ranting about refs. We had a horrible Victoria guy doing our quarterfinal as well, and he gave them every chance to stay in the match....but you know what, if we lost I would look back on the 3 or...

    Women's provincial cup

    As much as I'd like to "go Messier" and predict a huge win for us, I don't have any illusions that our first year expansion team has near the pedigree to compete on the biggest stage yet....and as much as I'd like North Shore to advance because I previously coached a few of those girls and...

    "I appreciated the piss-take." I knew you would FB. You and I have traded many barbs, most in the name of good and hard TTP'ing....too bad a few sensitive types come on here and take everything too seriously. I mean think back to the pylon stuff....that produced 20 + spin off comments. Well...

    You do know the name of this site right? I'd expect nothing less from you lot if we had bowed out earlier than planned/expected.

    Already? Wow, there's got to be a huge mourning period on this one FB after saying all season how you had the best team you've had in a long time...after leading the league for 2/3 of the season and then crashing out of both cups...ouch, break out the booze. Canadians 3, Castaways 2...a bit...

    Women's provincial cup

    Why do you assume they would not want to attend? Do you have a reason to believe they wouldn't? Throwing out assumptions like that is crazy. They won the PCSL berth and wanted into both the MWSL and BC Cup....and were denied on both when THEY planned on participating. They are the only club...

    I give up. Regs seems to think senior soccer should get something given to them or have some entitlement. Last time I checked in real soccer markets, people live and die by their pro club and support it through thick and thin....not throw rocks and protest for unknown reasons or feel entitled...

    So you want the Caps to be responsible for an amateur team's travel costs? About 90% of USL and MLS clubs only worry about putting butts in seats and making payroll, nothing more...and yet after all the things I listed that the Caps do above and beyond in the community you now think they should...

    Looking for suggestions or facts rather than "perception"....if they take, take, take, what can they give, give, give??

    Women's provincial cup

    What can they do for senior amateurs? Suggestions? Any pro club is focussed on winning, putting butts in seats to make money, youth development, and a few might actually focus on women/girls/grassroots programs. Any club, even at the very top level, that do more than a couple of those might...

    Women's provincial cup

    As the youth manager for the Caps when we started prospects and the concept of a full time program, I feel qualified to speak in depth on the Caps program. We were originally met with resistence from many clubs who wanted to hold onto their top player(s) in an age group. As a hypothetical, if...

    FB went 2 for 3 with one non-played in last predictions....I'll see if I can do better for the quarters.... Gorge vs Coquitlam - Sorry to my favourite team, but I'm going with the Island'ers on this one. I hear they've got a lot of experienced ex-Vikes in their lineup and National...
