In a reply sent to The 11, the league stated that: "Each season, clubs will play each other home and away, plus they'll have two additional games — one home, one away. The owners/league wanted to give the fans/teams more than just 28 games."

Canadian Marc Dos Santos was announced as the inaugural head coach of the San Francisco Deltas in 2016. In this Q and A, he discusses NASL turmoil, why he left the USL’s Swope Park Rangers for the Bay Area, and what he thinks of the Ottawa Fury’s decision to leave NASL for USL...

But now that we have a verdict, the issue goes forward. Thanks for your patience! What can you find inside the issue, other than our look back at the USL/NASL soap opera?

Dos Santos said that the team has already signed players, including a Canadian, but the details of those deals have not been announced. The team is waiting for the right time to make those announcements, so he's mum on the identities of the players signed.

For Rangers’ Canadian coach, Marc Dos Santos, it marked the second straight year he faced a New York team in a championship game — and lost.

On the same day the Eddies announced that a deal had been reached to send academy prospect Amer Halilic to German side TSV Wacker 90 Nordhausen, Amer Didic, another FC Edmonton product, made his Sporting Kansas City debut.

It took him just two seasons to transform the Ottawa Fury from expansion side to Soccer Bowl finalist. He’s also an unabashed supporter of Canadian talent. Even though he currently works in the United States — with the USL affiliate of Sporting Kansas City — he has four Canadians on his roster.
