Very cool! I saw Carl Shearer on the sidelines with probably some other Dunbar Stongs guys. Also Stan the ref (worked at the old O'Keefe brewery off of Connaught Park) who used to say "and don't play the offside trap, 'cause I'm not gonna call it!" and then wouldn't move from the center circle...

Awesome!

Kinsman looked great.

East End Hookers - great name :D

Was that Rino in the crowd at about the 24:33 mark?

Good to see old Clinton park and the Firemens team at the start of the clip. East end hookers were made up of Firemens wives and girlfriends and the clip of the young lady with the lump on her leg is Christine Sinclairs mom,(Sandy Sinclair/Gant)

Holy Crap...31 years later and the north field at Clinton is still a mud pit.

LOTS of familiar faces in these sequences. Yes, that DID look like Rino....

Reg it was Rino plus many soccer guys. I wish they head rest of the tapes there was six in total. Fireman Vs Croatia. New West vs North Shore.
Most of your top Canadian soccer guys come from that area. Or their suns. Fun times. Four hundred people on the side lines of Clinton Park. Fifteen hundred in Callister Park.
You should have seen fights during the games. Even ladies were fighting. Madness about soccer.
Yesterday I went to see Italian League. Teams come out with 8 player to play the game. Kids here just do not care enough.
They make these mega clubs. Politicks kill the youth development.
We keap on adding Americans on our upper level clubs. All the blame goes against us.Did you see Neal Elliots pass. To bad he could not run.
Good guy later came to Croatia SC. # 7 in blue was the best player of all. Victor Kudelja. Man could he dring smoke hearbs and play ball. The best by far.
