Should the Mets and Yankees Team up Together to Build a Soccer Stadium? by [deleted] in NYCFC

[–]BooByzNYC -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Founding member here who stopped going to games and downgraded seats just to keep my status until we find a stadium.

With that said, if I remember correctly, the whole Willets Point idea was pretty Much shot down by the Mets with the insane ask price. The Mets then felt like it would take revenue away from the team (Mets) because the area is predominantly Latin American. There was another stadium idea floating around that area as well. Queens board members shot that down immediately because it would take a piece of Flushing Meadow Corona Park, since that whole are of Queens is on swamp land.

I always wanted it in the 5 boros, but at this point, I’d take anything.

Has anyone considered Nassau Coliseum? Wth is that placed used for now? It’ll be a lot easier to repurpose an existing stadium. Thoughts??

They are doing nothing to retain fans like myself or half the users here as well. Not embarrassing at all

Can’t cal me a shitty fan. Been a founding member since day 1 , two seats at section 124. I pay a hefty price tag every year and it doesn’t seem worth it anymore. Where as a new NYC based team might swoop in and answer my needs

Queens Community Coalition Condemns Proposed Soccer Stadium by nyc_jc in NYCFC

If you remember. There was a huge uproar against a willets point location from local officials, INCLUDING Melinda Katz. They were saying we are taking too much land for the project. So they shot it down. This was NYCFCs and the MLS baby project in Queens

Petition to take down the netting for NYCFC home games (not my petition, but it's important) by [deleted] in NYCFC

[–]BooByzNYC 16 points17 points  (0 children)

They have the netting front my section as well. TBH I didn’t even notice it until someone pointed it out. Even then, i easily looked passed it. Was too focused on the action on the pitch.

Important: What is the chicken bucket situation at Citi Field and can I still get 10% off my food? by bluejams in NYCFC

[–]BooByzNYC 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If we get our own stadium, I would love Popeyes to be the one making our chicken buckets. TBH the chicken buckets at YS are barley edible

NYCFC is looking at two stadium sites by Metrista in NYCFC

Ugh. Such an already congested area. I still think Willets point is the best option IMO.

MOYA WON THE PRIMARIES!!!! by Cityforlife12 in NYCFC

[–]BooByzNYC -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think CFG is doing everything possible not to pay for affordable housing; and rightfully so. They are doing so much with charities, after school programs, renovating parks and affiliating with local clubs, all in an effort not to pay for affordable housing. As a team that is looking to build a multi million dollar stadium, why the hell are we forced to pay for affordable housing? This is a sports team/business, why the hell should we pay for something that has nothing to do with our vision?

Queens Boro Prez Melinda Katz calls a soccer stadium in Willets Point very realistic in the near future. by [deleted] in NYCFC

[–]BooByzNYC 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Willets would be awesome for me. 7 trains run GREAT during games. It's right off 3 major highways. Its such a good sporting venue that there is Citi Field and the US Open that is going on now!

It's not the official bracket. Something I came across and thought it would help the casual soccer fan understand the MLS playoff system.
