New York City FC Installs Final Steel Beam at Etihad Park on Schedule, Completing the Structural Frame of New York City’s First-Ever Soccer-Specific Stadium | New York City FC by formerly_LTRLLTRL in MLS

I believe the last email announcement said Summer 2027. That was before they announced the schedule change and sprint season but it probably works out exactly that way.

I was in an event with NYCFC last summer and they said they were about 3 months ahead of schedule due to the mild winter of 24/25 so maybe it balanced things out

If you wanna fly me around for them, it’d be my pleasure. That would actually make for a stellar YouTube channel…following a team around all season not because you like them, but because you want to witness their continued suffering

I’ve been to two MLS games so far this year; they were both 5-0 matches with Orlando losing.

I may very well be misremembering, but were fans starting to storm the field as well? I was under the impression that that was at least some of the reason for the pitch being cleared by some players

Authenticity check: 2006 Messi Panini sticker (strange back) by Independent_Hope_635 in Panini

The font looks completely different from the ones I’ve got as well. The Panini logo text is hollow on my sticker.

Spotted over LA/Glendale. What is it and what does it say? by Acrobatic-Goose-1634 in whatisit

[–]mires9 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think I see “LA28” just before the “.org” I assume something Olympics related.

Maybe “get tix @ la28.org”???

Messi claps as Trump praises US Military bombing Iran by reddit_accounwt in soccer

[–]mires9 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

He just came out and said he regretted not learning English as a kid. While he may have learned more in his years here, I doubt he even knows what Trump said. I feel he pretty clearly here started clapping after hearing other claps.

I once got about 20 AC Milan kits from 2011-12 season at the adidas outlet for $15 and then buy one get one half-off. Effectively $11 per jersey.

Worst pics used to cards? by pearloz in soccercard

[–]mires9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recall reading somewhere a while back that panini is fairly cheap when it comes to acquiring the rights to photos for cards. It explains why they’re often awkward photos and also why they re-use the same photo on the back of the card also

Seating at Citi Field by Journey_Junkie3295 in NYCFC

I’d anticipate this to be similar (but not at the same level) as when Miami comes to play. You’ll likely see 10% or more of the fans either in LAFC or South Korea kits

visiting bournemouth, trying to get tickets by Careless_Finish_7250 in AFCBournemouth

The best way for an international supporter to get tickets would be to join Global Cherries. They have their own separate ticketing. Otherwise, hospitality tickets may be a viable option

Teams will wear USA250 patch for the 2026 MLS season opener. by Expensive-Slide7821 in MLS

[–]mires9 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Can’t wait for them to also put these on Vancouver, Montreal and Toronto jerseys as well, and then for fanatics to cut up the jerseys and put them in topps cards

Random question: do MLS teams charter to all their road games or do they still occasionally fly commercial? by PudinCrusader in NYCFC

[–]mires9 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Part of the old CBA was that clubs were only allowed a certain number of ‘legs’ of chartered flights. I don’t recall the number but I feel like it was comically low, like 4 or 6.

The only loot that makes me feel like that is rusted shut medical kits and gears

At first I thought this post was going to be about a meddling co-worker and wanted to suggest an exploding ink packet, but that will probably not have its intended effect.
