It's great! Next up, an interview with Jeff Paulus of FC Edmonton Thanks Thomas, thanks Jeff! You'll be hearing more from Thomas over the coming months - thanks, again! Next up, the mailbag: Mailbag You know how this works - you send me mail and messages and I read every single one of them. If what you send is extra good I read it on the podcast. James from the N90 Premium Channel asked: Thoughts about Ottawa Fury joining the CPL for the 2020 season? Ed Johnson wrote on the N90 Facebook Page: Kurt Larson said the 8-0 score "will never be repeated in the CPL". Do you agree or disagree? Liam Pritchard had some great comments on the N90SG Facebook Group about a survey that was being circulated suggesting that Canadian MLS clubs join the CanPL. He said: Yeah not a good idea yet. Maybe one day. Just need to look at Scotland to see what good two teams dominating the league would look like... Being a Brit, I love North American sports because of the parity. I love that anyone can win each year because anyone can beat anyone. QOTW: Who is Canada's best player? Most promising player?
