In the days before the Vancouver Whitecaps’ 2-0 win over Real Salt Lake the Southsiders released a letter on their twitter account entitled “We Demand Better.” I agree with this sentiment. The Whitecaps, despite beating RSL on the day, have had some embarrassing results and you can sense that there’s a degree of apathy towards the club building in the city. Some small but noticeable protests could be an excellent way to send a message. The problem with the letter is, despite being called “We Demand Better,” it does not actually demand anything. Instead the letter is full of platitudes, vague statements, and ultimately meaningless phrases.
Opinion: Southsiders Protests Are Well Meaning But Lacking In Direction
