Ridiculous that the team only had four cops dealing with the fighting in the Away Supporters section. The fucks were throwing beer at security people and hitting each other. Maybe the rivalry had become tame but that doesnt excuse the team from having more security given NYCFC supporters history


#1408192 (No) attendance, again

Sure. But I don't even get the impression they are reaching out to soccer fans in walking distance to the stadium. It doesnt seem to be their focus at all. They should organize Luqs, Long, and some other guys to go to Iberia one night and hand out some T shirts/tickets/schedules. Next week, go to a park and do same thing. Week after that hit up another restaurant bar. Buy a couple small, inexpensive side of building billboards and update each week with upcoming games. Have the RBIIs play some 5v5s in riverside park. Hire a local marketing company. 
 
Keep doing that once a week and I bet you start to build some momentum after a year...


Tarps seem to be less expensive than all of the outreach to bring in fans. But in all seriousness, it seems like they have given up trying to bring fans into games

The team looks so uncomfortable with the ball every time they get possession

Barlow is soooooo bad. That was the worst cross I've ever seen. 


Yea but his XG makes up for not being able to do anything correctly

It would be great if we played strikers that could score on the field instead of having great stats that show they could score

Can you get the Red Bulls matches on the radio? What station?


It's through the internet, you can use Mixlr or TuneIn apps


#1402071 Offseason Grades

Posted by jp917 on 25 February 2022 - 02:51 PM

3 days before the season starts, our coach says the roster is shit.
 
1 day before the season starts, our head of soccer quits.
 
I mean...


Clearly there's nothing wrong with the team, it's the fanbase that's toxic...

Or he didn't want to be traded at the end of next year with no choice in his destination

#1398343 This is what we're dealing with

I would be thrilled if we had a bunch of guys on trial.  We have a pretty good track record with the guys we kept after that process.   It's way better than signing guys on loan.    That said, it's a different world today and the talent level we need these days is not likely to be found on the "without a club" list of players available to trial with us.
 
Who's on the "signed after a trial" Mt. Rushmore?   I'll start with Grella.


BWP, and Lawrence are definitely up there

I've been pushing Amaya for the 6 as long as he has been here.   Not saying he is a Davis replacement or a even a good option, but that's where he fits best.  


He seems to have the same issue that Dax had, he wants to be a CAM but his skillset is much better suited elsewhere
