you can watch sonny's MLS debut.
doesn't look sharp at all. he's definitely still in preseason mode.
This is only sort of responsive, but I found my interest in MLS generally tanked in mid-2023 when it became clear how bad NYCFC was, and it has never really recovered. I think it might revive if we ever get back to competing to finish at or near the top of the conference, but right now it's dead. I just can't generate interest in the league's best when NYC is clearly not one of them, and I've zero interest in watching the teams sitting 6-10 in the standings in the hope that they falter and we climb up to the top of mediocrity.
That's a fair opinion.
As I've mentioned a few times I love watching matches from the west coast. For whatever reason they're more entertaining than matches from the eastern conference. Even the teams that aren't very good (San Jose, Portland, etc) more times than not seem to put on a good show. And for no other reason than FYI, the Galaxy finally seem to be putting it back together and with Puig getting ready to return could go on a run. Probably too late in the season to make the playoffs, but they'll be another fun team to watch.
I have never seen a level of incompetence anything close to what the ref showed in the last few minutes of that game.Red Bulls steal one (in their own stadium lol) in second half added time on a dodgy penalty call. Shame.
But they are still 2 points behind us and we have two games in hand

That was some really rough reffing. My first energy drink game, and it is quite empty tbh. They could maybe fill the lower bowl with everyone? I’m very excited for Eithad park to be full for every game and show them up.
Reminds me of that bullshit handball call on Chanot back in the day with a 90+11' PK. Elfath was the referee.Red Bulls steal one (in their own stadium lol) in second half added time on a dodgy penalty call. Shame.

My gut reaction to this is that we need to move up the standings and get out of that play-in. An extra game to try for a chance to face the Union on short rest sounds to me like a recipe for an early playoff exit.
Photos of Martin’s return to training have raised my hopes that we can finish the season strong and possibly climb the table. However, with Parks still out and no signs of another quality winger arriving, we remain a long way from being a serious contender.
If you have purchased your seats in the new stadium, you’re signing a contract that has language in it that you understand the schedule is changing and it will
Impact the move date.
- More likely it's written to give them flexibility because they disclosed a possibility.
- If they do flip the schedule it isn't guaranteed to happen by 2027.
- I agree with you they probably will flip the schedule. It's more a question of when than if.
"But the board is behind [a schedule flip]. One source told The Athletic that an unofficial straw poll conducted here indicated as many as 27 of 30 owners in favor of the change."
MLS’s calendar, roster changes aren’t happening yet, but it’s a matter of time
Despite expectation that MLS would take official steps toward significant foundational change, progress on that front is evident

I'd also like to know whether there are any undisclosed cold weather mitigation options buried in the stadium plans.
