NOTE
: THE THREAD TITLE SHOULD NOW READ "MAY 24" , BUT CANNOT EDIT IT
For all my fellow Canadian Expats in Argentina, I would like to start this thread for news and discussion, perhaps later arranging sitting together along with fans travelling down from Canada to this match. This should be a great event, even for the non-fan.
This is OUR World Cup in 2010!!!
Not officially announced, but solidly in the pipeline, the match appears set to proceed May 24 (Monday, the night before the national holiday), no kickoff timeset yet. Apparently, Cristina is planning to turn this into a big multiactivity event, because it is the Bicentennial of the Declaration of Independence. This may make it difficult to get tickets, but we ( I am a longtime member of the Voyageurs, the natinal team fanclub ) are hoping that the Canadian Soccer Association will arrange a good away section and accessibility to tickets for us.
The Canadian team may also arrange a second match elsewhere in South America before or after.
As this is amongst the final preparations for the Argentina team before leaving for South Africa, the Argie line-up will be simply awesome.

Apart from keeping each other up-to-date, this thread could also be a useful and efficient way, for those of us here who know and want to, to answer any questions the Canadian fans have above travelling and being here.
Here is the link to the fan travel thread in the Voyageurs website for those wishing to keep track:

I have informed the V's about this thread.
Thanks for your attention, and hope to see you on May 24!
