Raven Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 Wow! I’m a Pacific FC suppoter and season ticket holder. This is all I was hoping for when the league started - a local team I can support and follow. 2021 Champions!!!!!! toontownman, Bison44, Aird25 and 12 others 13 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonovision Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 (edited) Not the result this neutral was hoping for. Hope to see some new blood in the top half of the league next year. I've seen enough of these two teams and Calgary. I will add that Forge really started to show the miles they've put on in the second half, from what I saw.

toontownman Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 Congrats Pacific. Well deserved. Credit to Forge to the level they have sustained while playing on several different fronts. Bobby has done such a fantastic job. It is Kah and Pacific's moment tonight though and a hell of a job he and the players have done there this season. Can't wait for a completely different set of Canadian players to be exposed to playing in the Champions League and picking up more experience.

But to your point, we get to see Forge in the tougher competition (CCL) and while seeing a new CPL team embark in Concacaf. I’m hoping Forge didn’t just overachieve.

No way mcmaster allows that. Also theres a pretty important road that cant be severed and two new buildings adjacent to the field which aren't pictured. not to mention the ticats owner already has a duel lease at thf. Would never happen a new 6,000 seat stadium in Hamilton would be awesome though it would have to be privately funded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is next year the last it will be split like this? New format in 2023 with two CPL clubs at least involved? Exciting times all round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 2023 CPL season will have 2 spots for the 2024 Champions League. toontownman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BearcatSA Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 (edited) Way to go! Can't wait to fly down to Victoria for a match in 2022. However, will Kah still be the gaffer?

Macksam Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 4 hours ago, SoccMan said: All say it again I know a lot on here don’t want to hear this but even 6000 or 10000 in a 24000 seat stadium is not a good look for the casual , get these teams in smaller stadiums like Pacific and Halifax build the atmosphere. Fill those small stadiums make it look very important by having a packed stadium , playing in these big stadiums is just not the look you want when your trying to sell this league . The camera angle was 95% of the time on the stand that had all the people there so it didn't look bad on TV. I was in the stadium though and apart from the stand that was full, all the premium seats from the luxury boxes on the opposite end were also full. ted, red card, CDNFootballer and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pottsy3 Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 Congrats to PFC, was most impressed by Dada Luke in his short stint tonight. He was a little shit, but quite affective. He was the burst of energy and strength that PFC needed to shut down a tired Forge in the end. Kwame and Navarro had trouble working it up his side. Not gonna overanalyze the game too much, we just looked tired. My section was a lot fuller than usual, I hope some of those fans carry forward and come join us fulltime next year. The middle section seemed to have a large contingent of PFC supporters, not sure if they were family or what but congrats to them. Also, the dude with the Pacific denim jacket... that thing was fucking sick. toontownman and ted 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry_Canuck Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 (edited) Congrats to Pacific on the victory, they are my second team after the Wanderers so it's nice to see some new blood taking home the trophy. I'll be very interested to see how they do in the Concacaf League. Best of luck to Forge in the Champions League next year.

I can see him garnering some interest from other leagues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ftduck Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 Just got home. Would have posted my congratulations earlier but there were a couple of guitar virtuosos playing Grateful Dead tunes down town right after the game so..... MASSIVE congratulations to Pacific fans!!! How great did that final whistle feel!?!? Forge looked good for about 25 minutes in the first half but that's about it. Pacific were HUNGRY! Good turn out and a good amount of support for Pacific too. We stuck around for the medals and trophy ceremony and it was wonderful to see how much it ment to the team. Now, onward and upward. Though it wasn't the result I wanted, this must look better for the league. Can not wait to see Pacific in Concacaf League! Praying they dont shit the bed and go for a decent run. Already cant wait for next season. Stanley, Bison44, CDNFootballer and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gator Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 Pacific deserved to win this match, they played the perfect match to beat this tired Forge team and I congratulate them and will absolutely follow them in the Concacaf League next season! I really think the schedule congestion caught up with Forge, they were out of ideas and energy in the second half but again take nothing away from Pacific, they played the perfect match and I congratulate them! king1010, rkomar and Ivan 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
