More importantly, is there a soccer market in a place like Moncton? I'm more interested in what propelled this location as a viable venue outside of the stadium requirements. There has to be an interested market as well.
My point is that Calgary is in need of a soccer field with decent seating. It doesn't have to be fancy - 5-10k would be perfect, especially if Calgary is pursuing an NASL team in the future (will happen before an MLS franchise is considered).
