I love the guy here, but I'm not sure that he would make it in a much higher league. I don't think he's good enough for MLS?

I think he's good enough but he wouldn't get the creative freedom he does here and you'd lose what really sets him apart. He'd still be a big body striker who can finish and that has value. He'd be an improvement over whatever Toronto was playing at striker all year as an example. If Sam Salter is moving to Europe then surely Warschewski could get a move to a higher level.

His passport is working against him though (same as Klomp). If he counted as a domestic player I think he would make the jump but I will love him in Calgary as long as we can keep him!

Also, seeing Bobby Smyrniotis lose just brings joy to the world. Wonder if Bekker is almost done. He didn't have the legs by the end of the season and was being subbed befor end of games chasing a win.

I'd love to see Noah Jensen in Calgary since he somehow has seemingly fallen out of favour in Hamilton... Not sure why Smyrniotis didn't trust him down the stretch.

They showed him taking extra time (shirtless of course ) going around to the fans and giving handshakes/high fives. It looked like a potential farewell.

I must say it would make me a bit said. The guy is a great foil, and the older more useless version of him is so fun to root against. My daughter asks to go to every Forge game so she can boo Kyle Bekker, and she showed no real interest in going to games until this became a thing for her.

Did we ever get season ticket holder gifts?

The club sent an email today saying that the ability to switch seats is now available online until Friday afternoon. I've been thinking of switching to something cheaper for next season but the site only allows you to upgrade to something of the same value or higher.

That's a bit greasy.

Honestly just give them a call. Whether it be Ticketmaster or the club being greasy (or a bit of both), they're really great on the phone and can get it sorted out for you.

League announced today that they're switching from Macron to Hummel. Not a fan. Their NSL were incredibly poor quality and the authentics are much more expensive then what we have with Macron.
