Everyone’s a complainer about our well dimensioned stadium
A bit much for the Red Sox to complain about irregular Stadium dimensions.

Is that real? Can't be.
Alex Cora, manager of the club that plays at Fenway, formerly of the notorious cheating Astros. It has to be fake, right?

That's not a real quote and from a fake NY Post account. "NY Porch Sports"
Or you know... you could go and watch the matches anyway...
moya is supposed to be a soccer fan. so he should realize having a 25k stadium open in time for the world cup would be meaningless since no games would be held there. first, because stadiums have already been chosen and second, because it doesn't meet the minimum capacity required.
just get it done by 2027. build it well. build it right. we don't need to flash a stadium to people who are going to NJ to watch the world cup.
i think its more using it for friendlies leading up to the WC or maybe have one of the NT use it as "base" for training (although i highly doubt it as probably Red bull facilities would be used since its closer to Met life). still, the bigger issue that needs focus is all this parking lot crap with Cohen.
Did we really go 19 days without posting in the Stadium Thread?
I'm pretty sure at one point the occasional long silences in this thread were noted and even assigned some superstitionistic effect.
As for Moya, his public role WRT the stadium is to engage in happy talk.
Yup, most pressing is whether douchenozzle Cohen is still trying to bargain his parking lots into having his casino included in the NYCFC ULURP and essentially torpedoing the whole process.
It might be to build off of the world cup hype rather than for any actual world cup - specific stuff.
considering the bigger issue is the parking lots agreement with cohen this does not seem like a concern for now.
I might be inappropriately sanguine here, but I think in the next 18 months Cohen will know he's either getting a casino or (more likely) not, and then the parking lot situation will be resolved by letting him develop something or other nearby.

FYI
Phase I = paperwork & research if there was ever a recorded Enviornmental issue on property. It’s a 50 odd page report.
Phase II = testing for contaminants if Phase I found any issues. (Air samples, ground samples)
Phase III = this is the longest, hardest, most expensive part. Actual remediation. They will probably have to dig out all the contaminated dirt. Haul it somewhere safe. Build a large concrete basin because of sealevel and how close they are to water. Then fill that basin with “clean dirt” to build on.
