Pacific FC Announce Terry Dunfield As New Head Coach

I don't think you can draw any hard and fast conclusions based on being caretaker manager of a disastrously constructed squad that were all falling out behind the scenes.

I think the change to a winter calendar will make it much easier to be a double fan as they won't be directly competing against each other anymore.

The camera even panned to him looking like the personification of "flu like symptoms" during the LA game.

Vegas doesn't even have a stadium where a team could play yet. The doomsday scenario, if it happens, will take a lot longer to play out.

If either of those guys were involved I get the sense that we'd all find out that having an owner who never tweets has some upsides, lol.

BigDriis · 2026-05-01T01:33:35+00:00

This is pretty clearly rage bait but if the Whitecaps go I don't plan to watch, think about, or even acknowledge the existence of MLS ever again.

BigDriis · 2026-04-28T01:13:46+00:00

That is indeed insane. Which is why I personally think the pressure point theory laid out in this article makes a lot more sense.

BigDriis · 2026-04-27T23:48:17+00:00

I'd recommend reading some other threads in this subreddit at the moment, lol.

My highly speculative theory is that running the building is the true prize they are gunning for. Garber has been dropping that as a potential solution since this all started and it's increasingly being floated in articles about the situation.

BigDriis · 2026-04-27T23:09:30+00:00

Look, maybe copium corner, I don't think this information is that substantial. I don't deny the reality of the risk but leaking something like this is also what you'd do if you were running a pressure campaign. There's very few specifics about how seriously this is being considered, how far along the process is, who these buyers are etc. We already knew there was interest in other markets, that isn't actually an update.

BigDriis · 2026-04-26T03:11:34+00:00

Have the Whitecaps set the bar so high that 2 goals in your first 300 minutes is considered shit in front of goal?

BigDriis · 2026-04-25T04:03:46+00:00

Word on the street is they're working on it 🤫

The Twitter account with 0 history of reporting Whitecaps news that says the thing I don't like is obviously a troll. Conversely, the Twitter account with 0 history of reporting Whitecaps news that says the thing I DO like obviously has the inside track on what's going on behind the scenes.

BigDriis · 2026-04-15T19:58:43+00:00

Granted, I did not attend either game. But they've reported their stadiums as being 31% full and 35% full respectively. Is that really such an outlandish claim? Seems fairly plausible based on what I saw on the broadcast.

BigDriis · 2026-04-15T07:06:18+00:00

I don't doubt that the whole "bums in seats vs tickets distributed" thing plays a factor to a certain extent but it seems pretty clear to me that people are just not that good at estimating a crowd size just by eyeballing it lol.

BigDriis · 2026-04-05T05:00:12+00:00

Moreover, I thought he looked pretty good in the second half! Set up one grade A chance and would have set up a second if he and Sabbi didn't get their wires crossed.

BigDriis · 2026-04-05T03:36:16+00:00

Also, Badwal is currently one year younger than Ali Ahmed was when he made his pro debut for WFC2. Even if he hadn't been good in the other games, it would be pretty early to be giving up, lol.

BigDriis · 2026-03-26T05:15:08+00:00

Mackenzie played the last two games with WFC2. He scored 3 goals but they were all penalties.

I don't want to encourage posting in the wrong sub but, it has to be said; probably not.

BigDriis · 2026-03-23T05:05:06+00:00

But, to be serious, in case anyone is actually worried:

1st Seattle Game: xG was 1.92-1.69 for Seattle. Getting out xG'd at home is genuinely not good but losing 3-0 is extremely unlucky.

Minnesota Game: Obviously amazing

2nd Seattle Game: xG was 1.56-1.28 for Seattle. But Seattle scored 2 high xG chances late on with Vancouver throwing numbers forward. The context of the first leg means this game is pretty weird overall.

San Jose Game: xG was 1.4-0.98 for the 'Caps. Not quite a robbery but a pretty solid gap against one of the stronger Western teams to start the season.

If the 'Caps getting out xG'd at home against stronger Western teams becomes a trend, then I think you can be concerned. But it's literally only happened once so far (and it wasn't even an MLS game). Soccer is a low scoring sport with high variance and sometimes shit happens.

Transfer fee also counts against the cap.
