I went along to Java U on Cote-des-Nieges a couple of weeks ago to meet with the first subject for this new series, Montreal Football Folk. I met the Football Fox of Montreal, Hady Raphael.
A lengthy and passionate chat ensued around various aspects of The Beautiful Game. Ninety minutes passed quickly and would’ve gone into extra-time, but for the proprietor switching off the floodlights.
Hady is well-known to many in the Montreal soccer scene through his various musings on MLSenFolie.com, CultureSoccer.com, Renards du Soccer episodes and the CPL Premier Podcast to name just a few outlets he’s been involved with (if you haven’t already checked out his writings or podcasts, I recommend you do).
