Official Schedule Discussion

this was posted in the TR facebook page by Nicholas Melione. He says it's from someone who works in Yankee Stadium. I'll guess we'll find out soon enough if it's legitimate.

I sure as shit hope so! I like how there are only four weekday games - I did notice, however, there are 18 dates listed when the season tickets are for 17, so one date might get axed

Dammit, I had the feeling opening day would be a late start.

Oh well........Adapt, Improvise and Overcome.

So the Union leaked part of their home schedule.. We are playing at ppl park on April 11 and June 6th...
Both games are saturday so should be great great to bus to

Thankfully that's the case. Unfortunately I won't be able to make any of the weekday games...unless it's Red Bull or something, I'd rather not use a sick day.

Just a feeling on my part, but I'm guessing the 9/16 or 9/19 match is the one that gets axed depending on the Yankees schedule. For the record the 9/13 Yankee game is vs Toronto, so there may be a chance that game is flexed for ESPN.

I think that last date is basically a rain date for if one of the other fixtures gets pushed back.

there's gotta be a doctor on this forum somewhere - would it be weird if you had a doctor's note weeks in advance?

I am hoping LAG visit after Gerrard signs. Will be exciting to see him and Keane operate together.

Also looking forward to away at Seattle if that happens.

Keep in mind, At last check, Keane has not confirmed his return to the Galaxy. His post MLS Cup comments left his future wide open.

I think Orlando City will be interesting. Even though it's a baseball field, a think a lot of players, both domestic and international, will be excited to play a game at the stadium.

I wonder if they would open up a larger part of the stadium for NYCFC-LA Galaxy, especially if Gerrard shows up.

Have to imagine you could sell 48,000 seats more or less for a Steven Gerrard game in NYC.

They will play Galaxy in July, when Lampard arrives, since he and Gerrard were always compared to each other.

And he could always donate to forum as a last minute give-away. Orrrrr...we could reach out to one of the local YSO/community efforts that works with at-risk kids and give them away via that route. It's probably not easy/worth it for one person to do it, but since most here have STs, we'll likely have a few extras for most matches that would go unused otherwise.

I love coming up with ways for others to be altruistic.

Definitely a good idea that I would be interested in. The only problem is that I am a poor college kid that lives 4 and a half hours from the stadium, so I was hoping I could sell a few of the games I couldn't attend to make some money for my commute to the games I could go to.
Although there are people that need more than I do, so donating is a good option.

Should also add, I won't be able to attend any games after mid August, so I'm sure I could donate some of those.

Evening games in March? Are they out of their minds? It's going to be freezing.

Also, check out Sept 16 and 19. "Unless Yankees play on 9/13 on ESPN." What the hell does that mean?

Hope the ESPN note doesn't mean the time will change...

As I mentioned a few posts up, more than likely it means the 16th & 19th are potential home dates for NYCFC and it will depend on if the Yankees-Blue Jays get flexed out of the scheduled 1:00 PM start on the 13th to an 8:00 PM start for ESPN.

1:00 PM means NYCFC can play on the 16th if they want, but an 8:00 PM start will more than likely mean we'd have to take the 19th, because they won't have the full three days to convert the field.

 

[mgarbowski]

That list looks very much like a near final list of dates to be fed into the league scheduling computers to mesh into the entire MLS schedule.

 

[Nicholas Constantino]

If that is the schedule it looks like I might only be able to make 6 or 7 games

 

[MagnusPax]

It looks like some schedules are already leaking. Here's Philly's home schedule

The only dates that matter:
April 11 (Sat) @ PPL Park
June 6 (Sat) @ PPL Park

Orlando also leaked their home schedule. In addition to the first game they host against NYCFC, Orlando also plays NYCFC on October 16th.

That's dark, darker than the black of our away kit.
