CANADA’S PROFESSIONAL LEAGUE

The Canadian Soccer League (CSL) is Canada’s only professional league and is a continuation of earlier leagues, the National Soccer League (NSL), the Canadian National Soccer League (CNSL) and the Canadian Professional Soccer League (CPSL), going back more than 80 years.

The CSL presently operates teams in the provinces of Ontario and Quebec and has adopted a mandate to expand on a regional basis to other parts of Canada.

The league is headed by a Commissioner, Cary Kaplan, with offices at The Soccer Centre in Vaughan and Mississauga, Ontario.

The CSL operates two divisions — a National Conference of teams in Windsor, St. Catharines, London, Brampton, Oakville, North York and Toronto and the Province of Quebec – and an International Division of teams in the Toronto area which represent their country of origin.

The CSL has a 22-game regular league schedule which runs from mid-May through to the end of September, followed by the playoffs which lead to the Championship Final late October. It also runs an Open Canada Cup from mid-May to Labour Day weekend in September, a competition open to all senior teams in Canada, amateur or pro, which is a first step in Canada’s attempt to run a total club championship.

Inaugural year team Trois-Rivieres Attak won the 2007 Open Canada Cup, defeating Columbus Clan of Vancouver, 3-0, in the final on September 3, 2007, and the current CSL champions are Toronto Croatia of the International Conference which defeated another International Conference team, Serbian White Eagles, in 2-leg final October 20/21, 2007

The FIFA World Cup, sometimes called the football World Cup or the soccer World Cup, but usually referred to simply as the World Cup, is an international football competition contested by the men’s national football teams of member nations of the Federation International de Football Association (FIFA), the sport’s global governing body. The championship has been awarded every four years since the first tournament in 1930, except in 1942 and 1946. However, the event is often ongoing, as the qualifying rounds of the competition take place over the three years preceding the final rounds. Since 1991, FIFA has also held the Women’s World Cup on a similar four-year schedule.

“A game played on a rectangular field with net goals at either end in which two teams of 11 players each try to drive a ball into the other’s goal by kicking, heading, or using any part of the body except the arms and hands. The goalie is the only player who may touch or move the ball with the arms or hand.”

The tournament’s final phase, often called the World Cup Finals, involves thirty-two national teams competing at several venues within the host nation over a period of about a month. It is the most widely-viewed sporting event in the world, with 1.1 billion people watching the 2002 tournament final.

In the eighteen tournaments held, only seven nations have won. Brazil is the most successful World Cup team, having won the tournament five times. The current Cup holder, Italy, follows with four titles, while Germany holds three. The other former champions are Uruguay and Argentina with two titles each, and England and France with one title each.

The Copa América is the oldest surviving international football competition in the world, as it was held for the first time between July 2 and July 17, 1916 as part of the commemorations of Argentina’s independence centenary. The CONMEBOL was then founded during this event, on July 9 (Argentina’s independence day). It is normally held every two years, but the intervals may change.

The key to winning a wager is to lay the wager correctly. In order to do this, there is a lot you need to keep track of; for example you need to be aware of the positions of the various teams in the points table, the leading players, their current form, goal difference, and most importantly how and why the odds fluctuate in a given competition. It can get tough for the average working Joe to keep track of every little factor that can potentially decide whether you hit jackpot or get disappointed. Most people are recreational punters; even the serious bettors do so because of the pleasure that the activity provides.

Granted, winning is a big high but if preparing for a win is like you were going to give an entrance exam, then it can be a bit of a spoiler. This is where soccer tipster services come in. Soccer tipster services are provided by online betting sites and gambling portals. You can visit these sites to gather tips on whom to bet on and whom to give a wide berth. It’s a great way to gain information on what others feel about a team or a player and the best part is that these tips are free. Of course, there are bound to be differences in opinion and the weight given by different tipsters to different teams will vary; however even this has a positive, you can gather tips and arrive at your own conclusion based on them. Over a period of time, this practice of reading tips and co-relating them to the reality of the game can develop into a useful skill that will stand you in good stead as you progress and grow as a skillful punter.

The manner in which the tips are arrived at is both objective and subjective; skilled tipsters offer their tips based on their observations and at the same time the websites use complex algorithms to arrive at a tip. These algorithms factor in various aspects such as the current form of a team, goals scored for and against, leading players, etc. More weight is accorded to an away win as against a home win. The tremendous amount of historical data available also makes it possible to draw trends and forecast based on them by making use of statistical tools.

You could stand to make some good money, especially if you have access to insider information and you can offer insider tips. As more and more people benefit from your tips, they will frequent your website more regularly; which can lead to advertising revenue. So whether you’re a Bundesliga fan or your follow the English Premier League, you can beat the bookmaker and make the most of your bets, all you need to do is to make good use of the soccer tipster services provided online and at the same time use some of your own understanding of the game.

But an unexpected outburst of words from club manager Rafael Benitez, criticizing the way the FA seemed to turn a blind eye to Manchester United’s manager Sir Alex Ferguson’s alleged actions of disrespect to the referees seemed  to have rocked Liverpool’s boat and which made them tense the night they played. Which is perhaps a contentious statement. But to fail to come up with a win against a side whom you have met before, wouldn’t Benitez been able to come up with a better strategy against Stoke? For one thing, I cannot understand his decision to play with only one striker, and picked Dirk Kuyt over Robbie Keane, provided that Fernando Torres still isn’t fit to play the whole 90 minutes. And to clog the middle with five midfielders with Steven Gerrard playing support? As if the Stoke half wont get crowded enough when they let everyone stay back and defend it.

Stoke has lost 10 games, but has also snatched a win against Arsenal. Meaning does this team play differently against other teams but employ this defensive style of play against the big four clubs? Unfortunately though, I can’t watch all the games and whenever I watch a game of Stoke against the Big 4, I often see this defensive style of play. Is it wrong? No, but the team lost against Chelsea and Manchester United so there must be a way for Liverpool to defeat Stoke. Instead, I witnessed a sequel of the their first meeting.

With United perhaps leading the soccer standing after the Saturday night game, Liverpool now have to win not only this Monday’s Merseyside derby but all their remaining games and win so in convincing fashion. To do so means that they have to stay focused and courageous. And it also means that any external factors be shut out, from the mind of manager Rafael Benitez to the minds of the players.

Benitez, with his tirade, appears to have been the first manager to succumb to Ferguson’s mind games. Its different to talk the talk but Benitez also has to show that the club can walk the walk. That plus his health matters, soon to undergo another operation to remove more kidney stones and his ongoing negotiations regarding his future with Liverpool Football Club , it seems that the manager has a lot on his plate at the moment. Rumors about Daniel Agger’s agent was allegedly seen talking to AC Milan representatives also provides unwanted distraction.

It is up to Liverpool’s home grown heroes of Gerrard and Jaime Carragher to rally the players and instill in them the belief that they can withstand this onslaught of United, break an 18 year title drought and win the English Premier League crown. Lucky for the Reds that Chelsea are sputtering at this time and that loss to Man U really showed that the Blues appear to be not that in to their campaign. And Arsenal? Until they get Cesc Fabregas back from injury, might lose to Stoke once again. Why do I say that? It’s a sequel!
