    Nycfc V Revs Motm And Post Game

    On "Puto" Just because you don't mean "little boy bitch/prostitute" as anti-gay, doesn't mean it's "OK". It needs to stop in our stadium. Other folks can do what they want...

    Rbny Reduces Available Tickets To 500

    Again, (again) this doesn't limit access. It just means people are not segregated between home and away support. The "punishment" is that we have to pay double the cost of tickets and there will be giant security headaches on the day. Speaking of children, one thing I was always taught is you...

    Rbny Reduces Available Tickets To 500

    My concern is this is just going to lead to chaos. Same people are all going to go (maybe paying slightly more as LeeNYCFC mentioned). They'll just be dispersed in little clusters all around, will try to stand up, will have a family of RB supporters in the middle of a group of 50 NYC...

    Rbny Reduces Available Tickets To 500

    The assumption -- or some source not named -- seems to be that this is punishment for smoke bombs from MLS. Of course this will just make everything worse, because we'll all get tickets in the general area, then be told we'll get booted if we stand, etc.. A mess.

    Rbny Reduces Available Tickets To 500

    Twitter folks reporting sanctions from the league mean we're only getting 530 tickets in the official allotment, all in the back of sections 219 & 220. Cause that'll prevent us from buying tickets mixed into the crowd, so it'll just be a mess. Would like to start discussing ticketing plans asap.

    Home 06/28 - Red Bulls

    Salomon Kalou says he's going to be there (from his twitter account) Either this is just a hot ticket (yes) or he's being spoken with. Don't know if he'd be able to get out of his Hertha contract. Get the feeling this match is an "event" in the football industry generally, and in the US...

    No More Smoke At Ys

    I hope we can all help TR out to try and find a compromise here. But their current leadership really should be closer to their membership, involve them in these discussions. That way they don't rely on the narking to stadium security option, which is will create more friction within the SG and...

    The Match On June 17th 2015 At Long Island Cosmos

    Nothing like awaydays to bring everyone together. Had an old friend who was a West Point guy (strange, if you know me). I remember him saying only two things really bond people (he said men) : drinking together and being shot at together. So some of you were well on your way with both at...

    Fights Between Nycfc And Cosmos Fans ?

    I can't imagine there'd be any trouble with RedBull. I hope people won't replicate the Cosmos behavior of ambushing fans who are just there to party. We're better than that!

    Fights Between Nycfc And Cosmos Fans ?

    All the boys were outside that s**thole of a stadium for hours before the match, right were we all said we'd be. Notice not one Cosmos fan said one word to us. So their tough guy BS is just that.

    Fights Between Nycfc And Cosmos Fans ?

    Yeah, the "accused" Cosmos supporters aren't just random f**kers. They're prominent members of two of their supporters clubs. One actually has a banner at matches made up of scarves stolen from away supporters. Maybe it's the way I was raised (amongst humans) but I was taught one of the lowest...

    06/17 Away - Cosmos

    Wish I could take care of the "no beer" situation. Frankly, that -- and not getting lost in Long Island -- are my biggest concerns.

    Yeah, that was the goalkeeper who was here, I forget his name. He was here on vacation stopping by the Athletic Club Bilbao NY supporters group. If you search for Athletic Club Bilbao NY you should find the account. Bilbao NY, USA, and UK, as well as Basque country supporters clubs, have been...

    06/17 Away - Cosmos

    I would not worry with kids. These guys CLAIM they are looking for various supporters groups who they think are "tough". I know this Victor guy. He's a weasel of the first order, but I don't think he'd sink anywhere near so low as to mess with families. And at the stadium there will be lots...

    Official: Nycfc Signs Andoni Iraola

    Watching Saunders try to organize the defence tonight several times. Watching Villa come back and defend. We have a talent problem and an organizational problem. Iraola can go a long way to solving both, and our midfield can begin receiving, holding, and attacking (for a change)!

    Same source reporting on Twitter he is under salary cap. Good to my word, how do we create a Claudio Reyna drink fund?

    Official: Nycfc Signs Andoni Iraola

    Can't imagine the Wall-Street-/-DC-level of financial magic that would be needed to bring him in under the Designated Player salary cap. He's in his younger 30s, hasn't been injured, and a clever organizer of back lines. I think he's worth what we'd pay. If we can get him under the cap and...

    Official: Nycfc Signs Andoni Iraola

    Iraola is not just some right back. He's team captain (for one of the greatest clubs in the Spanish state's League, IMO) and a Spain national squad player. He takes penalties and free kicks for a pretty powerful side, and should have the experience to single handedly whip our defence into...
