That's a bit much to ask from a first year club, don't you think? I agree that neither logo is a finished product. I'd also agree that a tree is a better symbol for the area than a trident (but I'm not from the city). Still, I don't mind V.I. for Vancouver Island. Also, I can't be the only one that's surprised a Douglas fir was chosen to represent the island over a western red cedar? They've always been a cornerstone of NW coast culture.

The secondary crest is essentially the same concept as countless other's around the world. Lettering, or interlocking letters of the club name or region (Real Madrid, Olympique Marseille, Inter Milan, Galatasaray, Juventus, half of the Bundeliga ...) Does age somehow make a concept more compelling, or is it the fact that V.I. also forms a trident that bothers you?

It's a commonly recognized symbol of the sea and it spells out Van Isle or Vancouver Island. Club name and location. Makes sense to me. Besides, the trident, as a symbol, has significance that extends around the globe. If either of the crests are embraced by the target audience they will be 'good'. Do you not realize what the club's name is?

No I didn't. Although I would be thrilled if he came to Pacific Agreed

If you're quoting me as proof that people here were suggesting that Atiba retire, than we have a drastically different understanding of the English language.

Victor Blasco is an international and he’s been in Canada for 6+ years I believe. Though I don’t know what his status is

Exactly. I'm relieved people are talking about this, and I wish the media would take it up. I'm stoked we're getting the spot, and that we're expanding the voyageurs cup, but I just haven't found a way to get excited about something that is so contradictory to what sport and competition is supposed to be.

Yes. Not ideal, but preferable. -

I haven't seen many holding any ill will towards other clubs. I think most are angry with the governing body -

I honestly think that would've been a better option -
I'm pissed that Pacific got the short end of the stick in 2 competitions, but I think I'm angriest that instead of fans being excited about 2 incredibly positive developments, we're now arguing about divisive and unjust decisions by our governing body. We've been doing so well lately, but this is such a sucker punch
-
I think Vancouver will only pay part of his salary, and Pacific likely picks up the remainder. I have no clue what the ratio is though

And we're going to allow these clubs to play in our premier league without even winning promotion to it. They haven't earned it yet!! What would you suggest as an appropriate mechanism for earning entrance into the preliminary rounds of Concacaf league?
-
So fingers crossed that we get knocked out early? I just hope there's a mechanism in place to bring players on board if there are injuries or whatnot.
