Stadium Discussion

- Start date
its fine now. but come schedule change and all those fields are beaten up then it we'll have to see how they still agree to this.
i still hope nycfc doesnt do it. go thru all that just to have a field that is beaten up.

And a field that is beaten up when we're in the playoffs. March-June in the current schedule is one thing; March-June in the new schedule with playoffs around that time would be a nightmare.
MLS/ CCL or US open CUP/ Playoffs. and some stadiums might host Gold cup too? or friendlies in fifa weeks.

The question is whether big european teams will choose to play in the larger capacity, converted baseball stadiums in the future when they have a brand new SSS they can play in, but limit their ticket selling potential?
I think we'll see next tier teams with sizeable US based fan bases, but not mega club status. Teams like Celtic, Newcastle, and big clubs from Portugal, Turkey etc. probably plenty of Mexican and South American clubs as well, outside of Chivas.

Leeds v Sutherland at RBA will probably move to Etihad Park for sure. Agreed that Liverpool and Man City will keep going to NFL stadiums, but we'll get those second-tier games.
Also for anyone interested in this Liverpool game -- anyone who plays in the World Cup will likely not be playing in this game so price your interest accordingly, because we all know ticket prices won't reflect that fact.

As a throwback to a prior conversation in here, I can’t make it today because of a family event, but I trust someone will start to sing What a Wonderful World pregame 
In case anyone wants to do the same, I just sent a short note to my ticket rep asking her to pass along my thanks for bringing back Blitzkrieg Bop.
Those folks probably get lots of complaints and very little thanks. It is also good reinforcement to the decision makers not to second guess the decision.

Based on that video it certainly looks like it's one level of concourses; you can go up to the 200s and down to the 100s from there. Hopefully the concourse is wide enough to deal with 25,000 people all at once.

April 2025It's so cute how [Sims is] trying to do something really nice while feeling constrained by the promise of a brick, and he explains why bricks might not be so great, and he's right, and he even mentions etching names in a wall as an option, but Brad, baby, it literally was never a freaking brick and names were to be etched in stone!
"The opportunity to have your name etched in stone and on display at our future soccer-specific stadium."
Founding Members
Only Founding Members can say they were there from day 1. This exclusive club will be for those fans that have been with us for every step of the way since before we even kicked a ball. Founding Members status will only be for those who were with us starting with the 2015 season, after this seasonweb.archive.org
Etch the founders names in a stone slab on a freaking wall and be done with it. Then, genius, offer to sell personalized memorial bricks as keepsakes with a little stand and an acrylic shell.
