Gian-Luca Posted May 4, 2019 Share Posted May 4, 2019 Poles in front of the stands? That's going to be a shame for the people sitting in the main grandstand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy thing is they are charging a massive premium to be in the main grandstand compared to anywhere else in the league with most of the tickets being well over $50.

Ansem Posted May 4, 2019 Share Posted May 4, 2019 A bit worry about attendance at 1st look Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzie_the_parrot Posted May 4, 2019 Share Posted May 4, 2019 If you want a heart attack on that check out Ticketmaster for Wednesday's game. On the bright side, Halifax have shown that if you price things sensibly good things can happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozzie_the_parrot Posted May 4, 2019 Share Posted May 4, 2019 apparently there's a major traffic issue for people trying to get to the stadium: https://imgur.com/gallery/XcSni4Y Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MM3/MM2/MM Posted May 4, 2019 Share Posted May 4, 2019 Play is very sloppy overall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ansem Posted May 4, 2019 Share Posted May 4, 2019 Cavalry much more coherent in the way they play. That chemistry is real and should help them get a potential head start in the league Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fil Posted May 4, 2019 Share Posted May 4, 2019 70% possession York 9 needs to make some changes for the second half Carduci can take a nap at this rate. Looks like the Apriccio and Di Chiarra absence is too much for York Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stanley Posted May 4, 2019 Share Posted May 4, 2019 Is this stadium completed, or do they plan on putting in seating behind the goal (that is to the let side of the TV screen)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzie_the_parrot Posted May 4, 2019 Share Posted May 4, 2019 Think this is viewed as a temporary fix that can also be used for showjumping and they plan a 12,000 seater dedicated for soccer if things go well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unnamed Trialist Posted May 4, 2019 Share Posted May 4, 2019 I was also worried at the start, with the stands empty. But now it is fine, even the main stand is acceptable. I hear the roof is not finished, so that would help a bit. And of course now it's snowing, not to say Calgarians can't handle it, but it is not the most kid-friendly Saturday afternoon. Still would like them to drop prices and fill the place as best they can. Pleased the field is holding up nicely, and the play is a bit chippy, not very refined, not so many player standouts, but still quality and well-competed. Edit: also think the reffing is fine, made an error earlier thinking it would be Gantar, but Fischer is a more solid. York9 is very sloppy and not working as a team today at all.

Unnamed Trialist Posted May 4, 2019 Share Posted May 4, 2019 Just to say, since I am not really a fan of the Cavalry: the venue looked right, spectators not only came but sat through a minor blizzard, the team was well prepared, the field was in good shape. So congratulations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fil Posted May 4, 2019 Share Posted May 4, 2019 York 9 had a much improved 2nd half, props to them that they didn't get discouraged and made a competitive match which looked like they were going to get steamrolled early Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ams1984 Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Too bad York didn’t start the way they ended. I get the injuries and all that, but Telfer should never have been started in holding mid. As soon as he moved out wide and they brought on Murofushi, they got into the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
