“I’m not (going to) change,” new head coach of the Canada women’s national team (CANWNT) Casey Stoney told The Athletic’s “ Full Time” podcast, sprinkled with a laugh, which means Stoney is going to “sit on a cooler.” She is going to sit on that cooler with “nice coats and nice blazers” and some Doc Martens-esque verve.
