Home game vs Houston being moved to Hartford, CT

[Joseph Bianco]

Rumors around twitter are that due to a yankee rain delay conflict we will be playing one of our home games in CT.

ETA: No longer a rumor, it has been confirmed

They better give an opt-out on the ticket. That's complete shit by MLB and the Yankees that they couldn't find a more opportune date to replay the game. Make it a double-header one day.

i dont think they can...both teams are only free on that day.

i just thought a day and a half was enough to remove the sod etc. i mean they literally start working when the game ends. i felt it be easier getting rid of the sod etc than putting it together for a soccer game.

probably...i just wonder if FO did literally everything they could to try and not having a game in another state.

this is gonna be a PR shit show ....this and belmont....during "rivalry week" when all us soccer eyes are on us as well vs RB.

Why in Hartford though? Why not just do this at Fordham or Columbia. Maybe even rent out RBA for a game. I wouldn't mind this game being in Conneticut for an Open Cup game though.

People should bombard the team & MLS on social media with questions regarding it. They will either have to answer with a press release, or if they keep quiet for a while, they'll look worse.

As much as I'd hate there to be zero fans in the stands, I hope nobody shows up. Start calling us the Rovers or Wanderers after that. Fck the Citizens moniker.

Hofstra and Fordham have blacklisted us and have told other universities to do the same.

fordham i think its too small...this is not a us open cup game.....and columbia has a home game that day.

Even fucking Rutgers. Even that would be better than Hartford. At least that's easy to get to for most people.

Well they make us play Saturday afternnoon for Tuesday night Yankee games so I can't see them fitting it in with a Monday afternoon game.

This where Don Garber takes out his balls and says to Rob Manfred, "MLS has the stadium that day. Fuck off."

What is the basis for this at all?

 

[LeeNYCFC]

This is atrocious if true, but why wouldn't we move the game to Friday and not "Hartford"

yankees play make up royals game on monday....as to why hartford i dont know

 

[Ulrich]

That would mean we play 5 games away in a row before the Final home game.

The Yankees should play it on the 7th at home, or give KC an away game on the 7th or 21st, or just forfeit the game.

This is ridiculous. Make sure nobody watches this game even on TV. We can not stand for this bullshit.
