About the Episode

Brand new Canadian Premier League commissioner and CEO of Canada Soccer Business, Mark Noonan, chats with James Sharman, Craig Forrest, Jimmy Brennan and Brendan Dunlop on this week’s interview series episode. The veteran sports executive speaks about his impressions of the CPL, his excitement for the new role, and the potential he sees in a country he believes has more than any other in the sport. Having previously worked with Major League Soccer, the US Soccer Federation and as CEO of Accra Hearts of Oak SC in Ghana, Noonan brings a wealth of experience to the 4 year old CPL. He tells the crew how a simple LinkedIn message led to dinner with a King and a move to Africa, explains why the labour issues Canada Soccer finds itself in are a sign of growing up, and ranks the creation of a women’s league high on the priority list of targets.    The Premier League has a new home in Canada this season: FuboTV.
