2024 Cavalry FC and CPL thread

And tell Carducci to stop kicking the ball out of bounds! Really narrow field but that’s why you practice distribution before the match

Apple Bowl is a decent venue and with a little work could be great

I would’ve left Brooks on and put Akio on the opposite side for more speed

Pro: 6281 at the Apple Bowl
Con: The game itself. Probably the worst game of the year on the pitch of any two teams.

[M*A*S*H 4077]

A 0-0 draw on the road on a poor and wet pitch is not the worst result and one you’d take most of the time. But this year it just feels like another draw with a team that has no clue what to do in the attacking third.

At least in the second half they mostly cut out the awful turnovers.

[TheIronMaiden]

I know that 18 games remain, but third last in the league is not a good look.

[Ozy_Flame]

I think we're reaching the point where we can determine this is likely going to be an off year unfortunately.

[TheIronMaiden]

It's crazy because they've only lost 1.

[Ozy_Flame]

Yeah but draws don't win shields or cups. Every subsequent draw is becoming more like a loss.

Zator seems to be thriving in Poland.

Zator has yet to miss a single minute 25 matches into the seasons, even donning the captain’s armband on a couple of occasions.

Had heard rumblings in the stands that CPL got all the production equipment as a part of the settlement, so hopefully that means the league will be able to produce games itself and get it distributed to a wider audience.

This isn't going to be pretty tomorrow.

Yikes, a game in Calgary during game 6 of the Stanley Cup finals. Attendance may be alright due to already purchased tickets, but I bet butts in seats is low tomorrow.

I'm not going to my first Cavs tonight game in ages - I'm going with a group of friends to watch Game 6 instead. Honestly, it's just rotten timing both games are on the same night.

I choose to not let my beautiful summer night outside yelling at guys chasing a ball be ruined by the frigging Oilers.

[shermanator]

In reality it's minor soccer night and there are going to be a lot of minor soccer players in the stands tonight. Might not be the biggest crowd of the year but it'll be close.

Muta, you were one of like 4 people in Vancouver a few weeks back so you get a pass

New signing. 17 year old forward Chanan Chanda signs on an exceptional young talent contract through 2026 with an option through 2027. Leads League1 Alberta in scoring with 7 goals in 7 games.

Fair, but it's moreso the company around me that I am looking forward to hanging out with, if you catch my drift.

[Ozy_Flame]

That is one hell of a 'fro. Will be fun to watch that celebrate scoring goals!

[M*A*S*H 4077]

Long live the fro! Love giving local kids a shot. That’s something you just don’t get in other sports

I won’t be there tonight (or much of the summer). Our first baby is due imminently. If anyone wants a pair of tickets to a match later in the summer in 109 shoot me a DM as my brother won’t be able to make all of them and I’ll be looking to offload some games
