VANCOUVER, BC – That’s a wrap.
Vancouver Whitecaps FC held their year-end media availability on Wednesday morning following the announcement of multi-year contract extensions for head coach Carl Robinson and assistants Martyn Pert and Gordon Forrest.
Here are some news and notes from the day.
MAKING A STATEMENT
Wednesday’s announcement made it abundantly clear that the club has full faith in Robinson and his assistants, despite this year’s disappointment.
Whitecaps FC president Bob Lenarduzzi referenced their body of work over the last three seasons, which included a pair of appearances in the MLS Cup Playoffs and CONCACAF Champions League – not to mention a first-ever berth in the Champions League quarterfinals.
