Episode 2 – Voyageurs Cup debacle and a new second division?

Northern Fútbol Podcast

DISCLAIMER: This episode was recorded before Wilfried Nancy was confirmed as CF Montreal coach and before the CPL salaries were publicized. We also apologize for the unresolvable static during our conversation with Duane Rollins.

In this episode, Peter and Thomas break down the latest news surrounding the Voyageurs Cup final and the logistical issues all sides face. Then they speak to Duane Rollins of Soccer Today about plans for a Canadian second division, what it would look like, which markets could be involved, how it impacts the Canadian Premier League and how this will benefit the women's game. The guys also discuss the off-season dealings of the three MLS teams, the latest news in the CPL – including Tristan Borges' return to Forge FC – Canadian Olympic squad leaks and Jonathan David's productive week with Lille.
