The league needs to increase roster sizes.

Cavalry only had 5 players on their bench as well

I like that they've added those stands on the grassy knoll. It closes off the stadium, maybe adds cheaper ticket options, allows for more tickets and spacing of fans (as if Alberta cared). Looks more serious overall.

Nice but disappointed the fans would choose to have a Honduran flag back there.

They have a Honduran player and its a club match.

What's the big deal?

Honduras are our rivals, hence the joke.
