MLS - March 19 - Philadelphia (Home)
- Thread starter LionNYC
- Start date
i remember this game. this game is the sole reason philly hates taty. and by extension, us.
I just think that of all the "rivalries" we have, this one is the most organic. This and Toronto, though in the past two or so years that one's died down. But Philly v NYC I think is growing and will keep growing organically, which will make it one of the better rivalries we have.
The more accurate weather sites (more accurate meaning those that currently are the most optimistic to our benefit) show a diminished chance of rain during the game time hours. They came through for us last game, and I expect the same this week. Leave those ponchos and umbrellas at home folks.
as i said... philly hates taty lol.
That was a fun read. Love the "field the size of a tennis court".
What or who do they blame losing to 8th seed NE in the 2020 playoffs on?
they always disliked us, they claim to dislike RB and Atlanta more, but man i dont see that at all. all the memes and comments they make towards us is miles ahead of the other teams ( at least from what i seen).
it all stems from them yet to win at YS and shit on the field even though plenty of teams have won at YS with less games. apparently we have a good record against them so maybe thats it too.
even back in like 2016 when i went over there people in section next to us were fighting and even their own supporters ( and ours) were throwing stuff at each other which led to to us having to stay like an hour after the game ended.
I was putting my kid into his carseat after the ECF game. A guy came up to me, dumped a beer on my car and spit in my face.
It's a terrible fanbase for every team in that city.
I was also thrown the insult that New York doesn't even have a football team because the Giants and Jets play at the Meadowlands...
"Sir, this is Chester."
just read curtin's preview of the game on MLSsoccer.com and i just want to win so bad now and shut him up. I want to win with a rotate squad even but I think ronny pushes out a strong lineup considering they will get some rest after this game with the exception of Callens and maybe Johnson.
His comments about now they are gonna play us at full strength is so stupid. No one remembers or considers that we were also not at full strength.
Would love to crush them so they can shut up and go back to chester.

Eagles fans are the absolute worst, and here are 9 times they proved it
From snowballs at Santa to assaults and batteries, there's no shortage of craziness in Philly

I loathe the city of Philadelphia and the cretans that crawl out of that dumpster of a city. They have such an inferiority complex to New York and it shows with their behavior. They know they’re a small city and live in our shadow. They want to be us so badly. They are the red headed stepchild of the northeast. They lash out like a teen desperate for attention because no one will give it to them. It’s almost sad. Maybe it’s from growing up hating the Eagles, Phillies and Flyers as a Giants, Mets, Rangers fan, but the mere sound of their asinine accent makes my skin crawl. Some of those non sarcastic, overused insults on Reddit made my blood boil. Again, they are such an inferior product to us in every way and they are bitter. We are a better city, have better food, have more culture, a club that spends etc… Get over it. You’ll never be a big city or club.
Do I consider them a rival? No. Not on the scale of my dislike for the other Philly sports teams. They are not on the scale of dislike for the Red Bull or Toronto either. The Union are just an annoying little club begging for attention. Screaming and kicking out hoping someone will pay attention to them. But no one does. Why? Because they’ve been utter shit for almost the entirety of their existence. I respect their play and current success in MLS, but good god they need to just shut up. From Curtin to their fan base. They just come off as whiney and again, jealous. Of everything.
ok I feel better now. Thank you for coming to my Ted talk.

as a former philadelphian, I approve this message.
It's like they all forgot that we tied them with a man down on decision day.

If we so much as play well in this game, I'm going to be tremendously impressed. They've played six games in less than 4 weeks, traveled thousands of miles over the last two months, and are staring at a week off for the first time in two months after only a four-month offseason.
If we win this game, I'll be incredibly impressed at the mental fortitude of this group. Even if we play well and lose or draw I'll be impressed. Kind of want Ronny to rotate and give Maxi some extra time. Wouldn't really mind Taty or Maxime sitting either. But Ronny doesn't really seem like the kind of coach that rests guys, so I presume we'll see a pretty normal lineup.

Everyone who was subbed off against Cremas is going to start on Saturday and we are not going to be playing the 5 in back formation we have been struggling with. Philly is a talented enough rival that we do not want to be dropping points against them at home.
The replies were mostly a fun read, rivalries are fun, but one that got under my skin was the one that accused NYCFC fans of throwing bottles. I was at that game and it was not instigated by NYCFC. Also maybe don’t put the traveling away fans in a section adjacent to the home supporters section separated by an open space small enough to shout across
Ehhhh, I just watched the press conference that had these comments and didn’t think much of them.
He was asked about the rematch and he said that nycfc were the deserved champs, but they didn’t play us at our best. There’s nothing unfair about it or anything and nycfc still took care of business, are a great team, etc etc. and did mention again looking forward to Philly with a better lineup.
I didn’t for one second find his comments salty or anything. Now his postgame comments last year about “New York oil money locker room” on the other hand…
