That's exactly where I am with this.
I'm sure the FO knows Belmont is a non-starter and this is just an offer to put a bit more pressure on the other viable options.
Of course, I could just be very naive.

you got RBA already on the other side and you see how much that fills up
100% I'd rather continue playing at YS if it means we get a better location down the road. Don't settle for anything less.
I'm hoping that this is just part of the process for getting willits point or GAL.
If it's not and we build there I drop my tickets after they put that damn brick in.

Last regular season home match (October 22) tifo: BELMONT IS NOT NEW YORK CITY
I can't remember who posted that video of how Brighton got their stadium but maybe it's time to be more proactive. Signs in stadium, banners outside before games.
It was I. That being said, Patricof said that there will be a time when supporters will be notified when to go public to help the stadium process. At this point, putting public pressure on the front office will only drive land values up really for a stadium. Let them do their work and then we'll push them across the finish line.
I think once we get a copy of the proposal, we will have a much better idea if this is serious or not. I think it's all for naught regardless, since the Islanders have a lot more clout and interest in Belmont than we do.
You really think a dozen fans standing outside the stadium is going to drive up real estate prices? Couldn't it just show DeBlasio and NYCFC that we as fans are losing patience with the lack of progress?
Well Belmont is actually in New York State for one.
It's actually easier (cheaper I think as well) to go to RBA, I don't think a line goes straight to Belmont don't you have to transfer somewhere to train there and it only works on event days
Hell, no one went to LI for the cosmos before nycfc even though its in same state
If this goes thru then it's over....didn't some FO kept denying this whole thing on Belmont...if not then yet another lie one that will actually kill the whole thing
Not for me. If LIRR runs then it’s easier for me to get to Belmont.
If this is being considered as a real solution, it means that several of us here were lied to to our faces
Maybe but not everyone willing to fork out extra $15 or so 17 times a year to get there. I know I wouldn't
One of the appealing things about attending a soccer match is the time component. If the Yankees play at 7 PM, I need to plan for the commute, the throngs of fans trying to get in, the length of the game and then the ride home.
Soccer matches are mostly lesser attended and they are less than two hours, start to finish. Probably saves you 3 hours.
Commuting to Belmont is a non-starter for my family.
