Miller: Still a chance for Hutchinson to join Canadian team at the Gold Cup 27 Jun 2013 Canadian national-team coach Colin Miller hasn’t quite closed the door on midfielder Atiba Hutchinson playing for his country at the upcoming Gold Cup.
Mitchell call-up stretches already-thin Whitecaps back line 26 Jun 2013 Trinidad and Tobago coach Stephen Hart has called up Carlyle Mitchell to the national side for the Gold Cup. And that means the Whitecaps’ central defender will leave the club after this weekend’s road date at D.C. United.
Gold Cup roster: Hutchinson and Hainault forced to say no, Cavallini rejects invite 25 Jun 2013 “It would be easy for me to say he’s made a foolish mistake, but I will leave it at that,” said Miller. The coach said Canadian supporters need to remember that Cavallini is “still a young boy” and shouldn’t be vilified for saying no.
Miller will put his stamp on Canada’s Gold Cup squad: No answer yet from Aird 20 Jun 2013 “We are in a situation where the player hasn’t committed either way, to play for Canada or to play for Scotland. If Fraser opts to play for Scotland, that’s fine, we wish him the best of luck. But, looking at the best interests of our national team, we have made a formal approach to Rangers and the player.”
Miller will coach Canada at the Gold Cup 18 Jun 2013 The FC Edmonton coach was granted permission by the Eddies to steer the Canadian national team through the July tourney. The fact that the NASL schedule goes on hiatus in July allowed Miller the time needed to prepare and coach the squad.
Aird’s name on Gold Cup 35-man list: Process to make him Canada-eligible can begin 1 Jun 2013 Before FIFA can officially be approached, the player in question must be invited to a camp or be named to the roster of the new national team.

It kicks off July 7 and wraps up on the 28th. Conveniently, the NASL takes almost all of July off — and Miller could have the time on his hands.
Three great moments from three great players: Hall of Famers Helland, De Vos and Peschisolido 19 Apr 2013 When players I’ve covered over the years earn major awards, I don’t think about the stats they’ve accumulated over the courses of their careers. I think about the moments I remember the most vividly, the marks that these athletes made on my brain.
Gold Cup schedule: Convenient sort-of “home” matches for Western Canadians 13 Mar 2013 Luckily for Canada, the game against Mexico takes place in Seattle, which offers Canadian fans the best chance to cross the border and see the match, as it’s a nice short jaunt from Vancouver. As well, Canada avoids playing Mexico in Los Angeles, a venue which basically gives El Tri a home game.
