Kent Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 Just for a day, I wish I still worked on the Score app. I could apply some pressure, not that they really listened to me anyways. Fantastic news though about the league getting it's own spot on the website. I instantly went in and clicked on every link. Will have to make it a regular site to check. dyslexic nam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still think The Footy Show with Sharman, KJ, Budgie and Paul James was one of the best dedicated soccer shows we have had in this country. I guess it was one of the only dedicated soccer shows we have had in this country, but I stand by my assertion.

I guess it was one of the only dedicated soccer shows we have had in this country, but I stand by my assertion. Does anyone remember that show that was hosted by Brendan Dunlop, I think probably on SportsnetWorld, probably shortly after Sportsnet bought The Score. It was a daily show, and I think maybe even an hour long? It was good enough (but I might just be remembering that it was a show I had to support as a soccer fan), but the branding was weird because it was for SportsnetWorld and FoxSportsWorld at the same time. So it was something like "FoxSportsWorld Soccer report on SportsnetWorld". Someone mentioned Kara Lang as a commentator recently in the TV thread. I think she got her start on that show, and she definitely showed jitters early on. It was a bit painful to watch. I probably got everything in this post horribly wrong.

Yeah, she was pretty nervous in front of the camera back then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mpg_29 Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 Pretty interesting someone did a fairly detailed breakdown of Cavalry's season ticket revenue so far: About $1.7M in revenue from season tickets sold. Which ain't bad. CDNFootballer, Unnamed Trialist, toontownman and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BringBackTheBlizzard Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 The assumption being made is that none of the seats are being held back from season ticket sales on the Ticketmaster system. Time will tell, if that's valid. The one thing I find a bit eye catching in an if it seems too good to be true it probably is sort of way is that 190 out of 380 looks a little too neat and tidy for a split between sold and unsold at the highest price tag in the "Officer's Club". This analysis does show however that a few fans paying a lot can make relatively small crowds viable overall and that may be the method in their apparent madness.

Ansem Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 That would be sick to see SG in CPL doing that!!! St-Petersburg Zenith fans making a fire path for their team all the way to the stadium!!! KW519, johnyb and CDNFootballer 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KW519 Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 I think it's cool, unfortunately this is Canada where people are softer than baby shit. People in liberty village-Toronto are still crying about TFC fans being drunk and loud on the street before and after matches, as if they're entitled or something.

matty Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 thought: the cpl has to be the first professional league ever where it's first national team call up and first season ending injury to a high profile player have happened more than a month prior to the league's first ever game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
