People complain about our FO and how bad it is to be an NYCFC fan (really at the end of the day most of the problems all lead back to people's annoyance with the stadium situation) but gosh, look around at some of the other teams in the MLS and it's clear we're not even close to the worst.

At least no one is trying to take our name away too. Then again, wouldn't it be nice to have our name taken away and re-branded with something original.

MLS, Inter Miami lose key argument in Inter Milan lawsuit

Inter Milan is suing MLS for trademark infringement, claiming that the term "Inter" is synonymous with its club and no one else.

What do people say? Can't say I've come across anyone saying it incorrectly?

NYFC. For the first timer it’s a lot of syllables. If you look into the early days of this forum we delved into it ad nauseam.

My mom just calls it "the soccer team".

Book a different flight!

can't, it'll cost a heck of a ton extra to change flights, no? Moving flights is usually like that.

Depends what airline, what your status is (if any), and when you booked it.

I booked an international flight for completely the wrong week by accident and fortunately was able to benefit from a no fee for changes within 24hrs policy recently.

If nothing else, if it’s worth your time to get back for the game, call and plead your case to escalating managers until someone does you a solid. It’s the derby

I only do home attendance games for MLS matches, primarily. I will not count a "home" game at RBA.

But score?

Usually Gotham Gator did the score setup. It's still preseason, give the man a chance

 

[Gotham Gator]

ARRRGH. Sorry guys. Off my game - still in preseason form.

i wasn't sure where to put this, so i'll put this here:

Which MLS teams play the highest percentage of long balls after the first two weeks of the 2020 season | MLSSoccer.com

Who has played the highest percentage of long balls (so far) in 2020

www.mlssoccer.com

according to this, in 2 games, we are playing 13% of our passes as long balls. Granted, this includes a game where we were down 10 men for essentially the entire game, but as a possession team, I think we can do better. I would love to see what this number is at the end of the season. shame these stats aren't readily available for supporters to look up and analyze.
