Re #2: oh CFG gods please make that happen!So pumped for this. Early days and lots will change, but two things that got me to chuckle/intrigued me from the city member email…
1: “The iconic cube design and arrival point represents a “welcome to all” moment, reinforcing that our stadium will be a place for everyone.” Ah yes because nothing screams diversity like cubes!! Why do they make up these weird symbols like they do on the jerseys? Lol
2: “…drawing inspiration from historic soccer and sports venues around the world such as Craven Cottage in London...” Subtle sign we’re going to be keeping the small pitch?!
That’s kinda what the previous fan survey had indicated.I noticed that one whole side line the 200s is boxes and the below seems to be more of a luxury 100s section

Welcome to the Coop: Etihad Airlines Pre-Approved as NYCFC Stadium Name Sponsor. Citi Field and Yankee Stadium Games Still a Possibility
A look at the stadium design inspiration, an obvious name, and how NYCFC perhaps has not played its last game on a baseball field.theoutfield.substack.com

Absolutely infuriating that they would take away our home field advantage for a few extra bucks. It's one thing if we had the rose bowl to fill up, but a baseball stadium is embarrassing and has been a stain on us for our entire existence.Welcome to the Coop: Etihad Airlines Pre-Approved as NYCFC Stadium Name Sponsor.

Sponsor Stadium every day. I am tired of playing at baseball stadiums with shit sightlines.Hypothetical MLS Cup: do you prefer hosting at baseball stadium and every STH gets a seat, or at Sponsor Stadium and half get to go?
Tough call for me.
I think they just needed to add that caveat in case they ever want to do it. Doesn't mean they will.
Agreed. Once we're in, we're in. The one exception may be something at the Meadowlands if there's something crazy where we'd go way over capacity, but I can't see us back in a ballpark.Exactly. Why close off all options in case they do want to host something somewhere. Doesn't mean they will.
Also, it seems pretty fanciful that MLS would allow NYCFC to play at Yankee Stadium or Citi Field if The Coop is available. MLS hates the baseball stadiums more than we do.

probably trolling to piss people off about the possibility of going back to play at a baseball stadium. Plus i dont think the yankees would want it back.
there is no game that really requires higher capacity, even RB it is around 20-25K anyway.
MLS cup? maybe. Leagues cup final vs a liga mx team possibly.
