I thought the same thing from where I was sitting. Looking for a call

He is the coach and it looks like Cavalry is not consistently putting themselves into positions to score. Outside of a free kick/corner headed goal what is a “Cavalry goal”? Coaches should be designing passages of playing that are
replicable and repeatable to put their players in positions to score.
I’m also not sure I agree with Tommy when he said after the game that they had enough chances to win multiple games. They had a few chances but outside of a couple spells like ditty said they weren’t really penetrating the defence. Would’ve been nice to see them really put the ball on net after Valour’s keeper was spilling everything and slipping all over the place. Made it so easy for him.
I also agree that fans have the right to boo or express their frustration however I think we as a crowd sucked yesterday. When the team is flat the crowd needs to lift them. We should be trying to suck the ball into the net. After the game sure give them some stick. And I also think that these things shouldn’t carry over to the next game from a crowd perspective. New game, blank slate. After the season is the time to let the cumulative effect come out IMO. Miss the playoffs? Boo the heck out of them. I was at a game in Germany years ago where Stuttgart got relegated and their fans let them have it after the whistle blew.
I’m surprised at how annoyed I am this morning at how that match went. It is a long season ahead and they have an identical record to what they had last year after 7 games.
