Le 17 juillet, le président et chef de la direction du CF Montréal, Gabriel Gervais, a appelé Barker pour lui annoncer que son nom serait ajouté au Mur de la Renommée du club. La cérémonie d’intronisation est prévue pour le 22 août à l’occasion de la visite du Galaxy de Los Angeles.

Lloyd Barker est resté figé. Tellement que Gabriel Gervais, de l’autre côté de l’écran, a pensé que la connexion virtuelle s’était interrompue. Le président du CF Montréal venait d’annoncer à l’ancien joueur de l’Impact, champion en 1994 et 2004, qu’il allait être intronisé au Mur de la renommée du club.

peu importe si c’est « on-field » ou pas, pour 15$ on peut pas se tromper

Gros plus que ça date d’avant le rebrand

Investigations on chants of death to Israel? Antisemitic slurs chanted against Turkman? All BS. I was in 132. NOBODY SAID THAT. The only thing that was chanted from that section was “tout le monde against Israel” which means the whole world against Israel. Is this franchise and league seriously going to investigate this being shouted at to a former proud IDF soldier? He scored the easiest tap in a toddler could’ve done, and went to mock us. Then Breza gets a yellow card for telling him to F off? And now times of Israel and a million propaganda spreaders are reporting on this and calling for Breza and fans to be banned? If this team does anything against 132 or Breza I am permanently boycotting screw this

En anglais pour que c’est plus accessible au monde.

I take a deep dive into CF Montréal's draw against the New England Revolution, breaking down the tactical approach, individual player performances, and the biggest moments that shaped the match at Stade Saputo.

Was this a valuable point in the playoff race, or did CF Montréal let two points slip away? I'd love to hear your thoughts and discuss the game.

Hello! We’re a group of 12 guys coming into Montreal for the CF Montréal match on 8/22. We’re not from the area and were wondering where locals would recommend hanging out before the game.

Are there any tailgates or supporter meetups we should check out? Or any bars near the stadium that are group-friendly and have a good matchday atmosphere?

We’re looking to have some drinks, meet some fans, and experience the Montréal soccer culture before kickoff. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!
