Hi! Since this is new, I’ll do a quick intro!
I’m Ryan -I’m a 🇨🇦 scout & analyst & have worked w/TSS Rovers in L1BC+Can Champ the last few years. I’ve also done freelance scouting & analysis for teams+outlets all over.

I love to talk about footy (esp🇨🇦🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇮🇪), music, & Celtic.

If that’s your bag, hi!

Newsom is a spineless dickhead.
He doesn’t care about people, he only cares about being president. All of this is posturing for a run. He’s targeting a right-leaning base that’s more advantageous to him b/c it removes pressure to do ANYTHING remotely progressive that would risk his grasp of power.

Rippin’ this on my commute today in honour of the power of Minneapolis.

A Dudu Dahan client. Frustratingly predictable from the club.
Know absolutely nothing about the guy #Celticfc

Schools a few hours north in Manitoba recently closed b/c of a blizzard. Schools in Minneapolis were just closed b/c of the goon squad gestapo.
All the credit in the world to the people making this decision to keep people safe. School is just as much about care & community as it is about education.
No school in Minneapolis tomorrow and Friday. Just got this email.

With my unbiased scout hat on I think this is a brilliant move.
Sigur is full of potential & has shown that he can perform at a high level in multiple positions & be a significant, consistent contributor. Celtic have been in desperate need of a player of his profile+ability for several seasons now.

This should genuinely be a non-starter for Celtic and any other club. No money should go into Israel.
NEW: Celtic are close to paying £2 million for a player being sold by an Israeli football club with links to the genocide in Gaza

Celtic are linked with a fella named Ignacio ‘Nacho’ Laquintana - I haven’t seen him play for a second, but he passes the “great name” test all scouts that are worth their salt know is the true marker of a player. Get him in.

A LOT of bad takes re: Nancy on here, so here’s mine - Not an easy situation to come into, but both the board & Nancy significantly underestimated the route to success. In similar sample sizes, both MON & Nancy showed what is/isn’t effective w/ THIS group. Pragmatism is needed as wins are mandatory.
January 5, 2026 at 6:14 PM
Thank god. Genuinely one of the most baffling periods in my 25+ years following the club.

He’s never living this down.
"I was close to signing for Carlisle" is a phrase that should go down in Celtic history.
December 18, 2025 at 3:47 PM
Is Nancy a bad manager? No. I suspect he’s a stubborn one who has been sold a false bill of goods by an inept board. That doesn’t excuse a failure to adapt his tactics to one that suited the players under O’Neill, however. Regardless of tactics, too many players are just doing the basics miserably.

Between the fantastic support, Vanni being rad, and Josh’s fantastic coverage, I’m *really* considering going all in on the Wanderers from here on out now that I’m a CPL orphan.
December 13, 2025 at 7:00 PM
Man, I love Vanni.
"Everybody knows the things I stand for, and how I think politically, so probably the United States is not the best place to go, in this moment." — Vanni listing factors in his decision to take on the Wanderers project; alzate i gomiti!
Packed house as @hfxwanderersfc.bsky.social founder and president Derek Martin welcomes Vanni Sartini as the club’s new head coach and general manager. #CanPL

& yet Galey still wanted to stick around and keep fighting for football in this city.

I don’t think we all appreciate enough what a genuine legend he is.
November 25, 2025 at 11:59 PM
This is just SUCH a vindictive move. The disdain the ownership has for the supporters is incredible.
It looks like #ValourFC has deleted all the content on Instagram.

#ValourFC fans - we have to take our mourning & turn it into momentum. Manitoba needs ⚽️ infrastructure badly, we need pathways, & for that to happen, we need people’s passion, knowhow & support to put behind small/youth clubs however we can.
Supporter-power can change everything. We can’t stagnate.

What did they expect when they invested nothing into the club?
-0 effort to win new fans
-terrible matchday experience
-announcer regularly mispronounced everyone’s names
-no effort to condense seating to improve atmosphere
-difficult to buy merch if not at games (old kits still full price online!)

Another important thing to remember in all of this is that the Bombers are community owned.
If this is true, Miller should be fired from his position with WFC. This is negligence. If Valour was such a financial burden for WFC (which was entirely self-inflicted, yet VFC was a factor in forgiven stadium loans?), then a failure to secure this sale should be seen as a dereliction of duty
A summary of rumours from multiple sources RE: #ValourFC

- Wade Miller (Winnipeg Football Club) was approached by a buyer, and a deal was drafted.
- WFC demanded stipulations about using the stadium and cuts of concession income
- Buyer balks and walks after additional stips added by WFC

I've been vocal about the poor ownership, the passionate supporters, the awkward relationship between the club and the supporters..

I've had seasons, bought merch.. It's been a special place for me, friends and family, a place to share our passion.

I hope #ValourFC isn't done.
