Bunkering and brain farts: Week Seven(?) in CanPL
Is it week six? Seven? Already? Nobody actually seems to know–I missed Week Three just because, and CanPL.ca is putting out Week 5 content, so every number is fair game.

Halifax Wanderers FC v. York 9 (May 29 2019)
Big, big night at Wanderer’s Grounds tonight. Both teams have played mostly on the road, which means that winning their games in hand now is […]
Cavanalysis: Week Six in CanPL
Is this thing already over? For the record, I don’t think Cavalry have won the spring season yet–too many road games ahead–but they’re definitely close.
Tommy Wheeldon Jr. deserves a lot of credit, but Cavalry aren’t over the line yet
Cavalry FC have developed a way of playing that suits a new league. Can it work long-term. Tommy Wheeldon Jr. has bought himself time to find out.
Cavalry FC v. Halifax Wanderers FC – May 25 2019
The Quagmire returns. Cavalry FC have a chance to go to 15 points and take a commanding lead in the CanPL spring standings.

Originally, I was going to keep this brief because, y’know, if Wanderers aren’t playing did anything really happen?
Midweek, Midfield, and More: Week 4 in CanPL
I’ve always liked midweek games. Apparently I’m the only one–attendance is regularly brutal at these the world over, and the Canadian Premier League is no exception. Forge drew nearly 6,000 on Wednesday before getting rained on Saturday, which actually isn’t bad at all, but boy does it look rough in a 27,000-seat stadium. Cavalry drew only 2,055.
Valour FC v. Halifax Wanderers
Another week, another liveblog. This time I’m working off a stream just like the rest of you, as Wanderers head back out on the road for what I’m calling the Military Derby: Valour have built their club around Winnipeg’s military history and Halifax’s logo is based on an old fort (and also a bridge that’s constantly under repair), so why not?
Back threes in Week 2: CanPL recap
CanPL teams generally do not have the depth, with 23-man rosters, to play back threes very often. So fans of that formation should treasure this past weekend, where we saw them from everyone!
Upcoming: Halifax Wanderers v. Forge FC
The home opener is finally upon us. I’ll be at the stadium from noon onwards, with a liveblog up for you to follow along starting […]
