Good Monday morning Caps fans, hope you all had an enjoyable weekend and are gearing up for what the week has in store.
Hopefully you had a better weekend than Canada Soccer. As most all of you surely know by now, the Canada/Panama match scheduled for this weekend was chalked off after the players went on strike, criticizing shoddy leadership, delayed negotiations and an inadequate offer from the federation for player pay.
The federation is claiming poverty, arguing that despite booming interest in the sport and a World Cup berth, they would be unable to pay the players and support the myriad other football programs it must underwrite.
