BenFisk'sBiggestFan Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 Well, this might change my prediction of them being the lowest scoring team in the league. StillOnFire 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BringBackTheBlizzard Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 Definitely looks on paper like a top 5 forward signing where the entire league is concerned. They have had him in on trial, so will have been able to tell whether he still has something to offer in the here and now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shortdutchcanuck Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 Cavalry are trending up for me for sure. Was giving Rollins a hard time on Twitter for ranking them 1st, but with recent signings they are looking good. Similar to Valour: not necessarily any stars but solid across the board.

BuzzAndSting Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Cavalry now have a virtual venue. Although tickets prices are relatively high this stadium is going to be pretty cool. I think the plan is to fill in the side opposite the grandstand and once that’s done it will be amazing. http://cavalryfc.io-media.com/web/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that a misprint? Wow! That is very steep and for a good percentage of the overall capacity of the stadium. As a comparison, the most expensive season ticket at Hearts (Scotland) is roughly $850 for 19 league matches at home. And the most expensive season ticket at the Fury is only $540. Would be interested what the take up is... Edited March 29, 2019 by JamboAl Oranje 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 (edited) Looks like thats the guy! Props to KW519 Left winger, MLS and USL experience as were the clues. Looks like another really solid and exciting pick up for the Cavs. LB is really the only question mark position in the squad for me, who knows maybe Mavila surprise everyone.

They were completely tone deaf when they released these based on the current economic state of Calgary, let alone the location of their grounds being a total pain to get to for 2/3 of the population. grasshopper1917 and Soccerpro 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is true, however (even as an Eddies supporter living on YYC), there are a bunch off affordable seats available. More than a bunch. It's easy to pile on regarding the ridiculous prices, it's been beaten to death. As Calgarians, let's fill ALL the appropriately priced seats, show the club that they made a mistake in pricing, and hope they revisit when they see that packed corners and ends and tumbleweeds in the middle isn't a good look to display to the rest of the country.

But I wonder if their break even point counts on a number of those expensive seats being sold. It’s such an exorbitant price to charge for a product that has no history and is not widely known yet.

Someone posted an analysis earlier, half of the most expensive Officers club seasons are sold, and they account for over ~60% of the total season seat revenue.

BringBackTheBlizzard Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 For some reason I can hear an ex-Toronto Blizzard player called Jimmy Nicholl saying, "a thousand touches achieving nothing" as my immediate response to watching that from an interview in which he described why he favoured a more direct approach when has was managing teams in Scotland. To be fair though it looks like a decent standard and you need to be able to pass the ball about and maintain possession to do well through a Canadian summer. Wimbledon route one stuff won't work for a large portion of the season. toontownman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
