Bear necessities: Three U of A alumni sign on with FC Edmonton 13 Dec 2018 Three former Golden Bears were unveiled Thursday as FC Edmonton signings; Bruno Zebie, Ajay Khabra and Ajeej Sarkaria. All three also spent time under the watchful eye of Eddies coach Jeff Paulus at FCE’s Academy.
Edwini-Bonsu, Zebie are the first two FC Edmonton signings of the CanPL era 29 Nov 2018 “I met (co-owner Tom Fath) and shook his hand, I didn’t know I’d ever wear that jersey,” said Edwini-Bonsu, who, along with Allan Zebie, were revealed Thursday as the first signings in the Canadian Premier League history of the Eddies.

Paulus’s role moving forward hasn’t been made clear, because, well, the future of the team is not clear. The question: How does he shepherd the club towards a 2019 launch that, for Edmonton, is still a wish list item and not a hard target?
While symbolic, Hamilton and Saiko’s FC Edmonton returns represent a bridge the club needed to repair 27 Apr 2018 Don’t call it a comeback, even though Shaun Saiko was an Eddie for years. On Sunday, the man who scored the first NASL goal in FC Edmonton history looks to be rocking his peers, putting Calgary Foothills in fear.
FCE to CanPL? It will require “the greatest comeback story in the history of Edmonton sport.” 21 Feb 2018 If FC Edmonton, which left NASL at the end of the 2017 season, is to field a pro team in the Canadian Premier League in 2019, the club needs its fans to rally. It needs a massive ground game to sell season-ticket commitments. And, maybe, if the team is to survive, Wednesday’s night’s meeting of soccer supporters will be remembered as the Alberta Capital’s very own Tennis Court Oath, soccer style.
