Great weather in the forecast with clear skies and a high of 14-18. Perfect weather. Nice to have an early evening start, can't wait to see the place in action!

Looking forward to it. Heading out with my family.

I think you meant 6pm CT -- although MT = Manitoba Time should be a thing

I hope that there is a good gate for this home opener.

Valour paying 2.23 and Vancouver 3.1!  How often this year are Valour going to be favourites away?

In case anyone missed it we're at E & C on Carlton for this one.  Nicolino's on Pembina also hosting.  Special opening on a Sunday!  Nic, what the Hell?

Also from PDS more recently:

Let’s get into the play-in game. And yet if we just flirt with the playoff line, we’ll be danger of being outside the line. I don’t want to flirt with the line, I want to marry the playoff spot and see what that brings us.

Mourdoukoutas, Chantzopoulos, Antonoglou, Ressurreição, Facchineri, Murasiranwa -- OneSoccer commentators will earn their pay tonight.

Zero young guns starting for Langley. Strong lineup, though.

[Wippersuna]

Pretty excited to figure out who on earth any of these players are. 

[K Edgar]

Missing from Valour lineup: Ohin, Mourdoukoutas (as well as Williams and Polisi as already announced)

5-3-2 ?

[Wippersuna]

Onesoccer has them pegged as a 3-4-3 on their pregame lineup. 
 

Pretty nice of those couple fans in the crowd to cheer for the away VFC.

End the season now while we average a 1.0 goal per game.

[nolando]

House league passing by Langley so far. Truly atrocious.

[K Edgar]

Seibel from Antonoglou!

[nolando]

Gee has been terrible.

[nolando]

And yet James Cameron is not even on the bench.

[Unnamed Trialist]

Nice goal.

Very slow, awkward play overall, but with little flashes.

[K Edgar]

Valour looked dreadful for the first 5 mins and the last 15, fortunate not to be down a goal.  Viscosi looks solid.  Antonoglou and Faria look good on the left side.  Seibel (except for the goal) and Hundal invisible.

[Big_M]

first half dominated by vancouver as you could easily predict looking at the lineups...should be up a few
