Trust me, there is a big gap between Ottawa and Toronto with only Kingston as the City that could host a L1O team (and even that proved...
That's the point. It *is* pro/rel, just not naming it that. Since both Conferences would be considered Div 1, there wouldn't need to be any...
Haven't seen much movement in this thread, so I thought I'd throw this out there: I've given some more thought to a Conference setup that fans...
Here's to hoping Atletico Ottawa is a big success so that Lyon would reconsider. We *need* a team in Quebec ASAP.
I think we need to get over this every team has to play every other. From the looks of this year's schedule, it looks like MLS is planning on...
Garber doesn't say they'll stop at 32, he just mentioned them in passing around the time Charlotte was introduced as team 30. How they divide the...
If they do switch into a 3-division, 2-Conference format, I could see them following the NFL scheduling where they don't play every club each...
I was just listening to Garber's announcement for Charlotte as #30 and I picked up on where he listed Charlotte's 'rivals' (DCU, Nashville,...
The reasons for not switching up divisions like this is to build (relatively) local rivalries that encourages away support to travel (one of the...
My take (keeping as many rivalries together as possible [oldest to newest] and divisions relatively geographically close, with similar climates...
Anyone else want to discuss the Fury's demise, you can join us here: https://www.bigsoccer.com/threads/so-long-and-thanks-for-all-the-fish.2107300/
https://www.ottawafuryfc.com/ I'm still processing the loss of the supporter community. All I can think is "now what?" I thought I'd open this...
Not happy with the performance. I think questions need to be raised about the level of training and scouting of talent.
https://www.ottawafuryfc.com/ As a season seat Holder since the first came at Carleton, I'm so depressed that this is how it turned out. I know...
C'mon, they need a rubber match to sort out who gets bragging rights for the next decade. Seriously though, how would you rate these two teams...
I think the only way things are going to change for Caps fans is to directly appeal to Garber. He is the only one who could bring any sort of...
There is a lot more wrong with the Whitecaps than their academy. The grassroots is going to have to get the ear of Garber somehow to put pressure...
On second read through, it looks like an interesting concept. But as soon as you start saying one division will have a higher salary cap than...
^^ Why would upper tier teams want to play lower-tier teams in the regular season? That's what the USOC is for. Div 1 should be an 18-team, 34...
Honestly, Attendance is higher than I thought would be required to keep the league solvent. I estimated around 3600 per game to break even on a...
Edmonton is only a couple hundred metres above Winnipeg. Calgary is only 1000 metres above sea level, about 200 lower than Salt Lake City and 600...
About time. If you are trying to reach a similar area as L1O, then anywhere within an 8 hour drive should be viable. that would also include the...
I'm afraid your Midwest and Central divisions just look wrong. I know SKC fans would hate it, but I would swap Minnesota and Saint Louis between...
Yeah, I could see the path forward to a North American Super League: A single table of the top 9 Liga MX and top 9 MLS clubs with a 34 game...
They don't need to go to a rotating schedule until the league hits 36 teams. I foresee a 34 game schedule with home-and-away matches against every...
