I did a little calculated estimations based on the availablity numbers CFC has on their seasons tickets interface. The site suggests that there are 2,957 seasons tickets left up for grabs. Granted I don't know if this includes the officers club or not.

If the sections totals here are correct, there are 4994 seats available if you don't include officers club or general admission, or accessible seating.

FWIW That means something like 2,037 tickets sold so far. Likely closer to 2,200 if you include the officer club and accessible seating ( granted my math and estimates could be wrong).

I have a hard time beleiving that many more will be sold before single tickets are on sale, and after that it will be nearly impossible to know how many seasons tickets were sold.

That vertical stripe on York 9 really looks slick. I'm curious about Edmonton, as they are calling it a "10th anniversary kit"

They got the proper red this time, nice!

I like them, although I think they would look even better if it were only one sash.

My poor wallet...

I actually really like them! And the red is correct, haha. Definitely going to buy one in the next couple months.

Forge's jersey looks like a sasquatch dump tho

Swoop is the perfect shirt sponsor for FC Edmonton, given that they cheap out on everything else...

I don’t know I think they could have done better.
The mountains are “homely”

The socks are good, have that umbro look to them.

Can't say I'm a fan. Too "whispy" in its coloring. Also lacks the military-inspiration anymore. That's just me though.

Yes, outside of the color now being a proper red, meh, a downgrade for me. Socks are good if they are paring with white shorts. Could've kept the old jersey, updated the color, added white shorts and these socks, and been great..

Reimagined sash? It's not like we have had the sash since 1975 that it needed a refresh, and it does take away from the military themed inspiration of the kit. Replaced by "mountains" it appears, as the identity.

And all the away kits for CanPL are black...so the "army" green is gone now too, correct?

Global News was at the kit launch, so I think it might make the 11pm news or tomorrow morning.

The new jersey is good, but not great. Not a fan of the collar treatment, and I wouldn't mind a small touch of the army green added. Overall, it is a good enough jersey to put on my birthday wishlist.

I actually think Halifax has a worse jersey for 2020 than Forgery does. I'd rate FCE as no good, but I like their jersey a bit better than sherm does. Valour's collar choice is awful.

Looking at all seven released, there appears to be less individuality and more of a template. That may be one of the reasons why I think some of the shirts look better as part of the entire kit and a bit orphaned otherwise

I do like how Edmonton, Valour and York9 have simplified their tops. York9 are not only most improved but also my pick for the numero uno.

I would agree with York 9 having the nicest shirts.

I find the traditionalist look can either be well done, or it can be simply boring. I put Edmonton's in the latter category. Valour on the other hand have simplified their look and I quite enjoy it (minus the weird collar)

Just saw this morning that the back of Pacific's home jersey is completely white, save for a small purple trident. I suspect that this would confirm the rumour of the black clash jerseys we are hearing about, as a completely purple look might get a little too close visually. Same thing with Wanderers moving away from their 2019 all navy look to a gradient for 2020.
