NYCFC / MLS 2023 Thread

In the gym today and there was a girl on one of the treadmills wearing an NYCFC shirt, first time I've seen one in Ireland never mind Kerry.

You know the rules.

You know the rules.

As nice as her behind was, I'd no opportunity or inclination to sneak a photo.

Was she wearing Yoga bottoms?

No inclination!!! You need a life time ban.

Planned stadium

I was looking over all the renderings (and the site elevation, as it shows it’s orientation to Citi Field and the existing campus), and while it is likely a lot more functional and ultimately scalable, I am surprised by how much less grand it is compared to a few recent new MLS stadiums. Even compared to Red Bull Arena it looks more workman (more akin to a mid-population Championship city ground than a bigger city PL one).

Just seems out of keeping with the club’s established (and likely desired) persona.

A. New York City cannot support and fill a large PL stadium
B. The simple fact that it is a brand new stadium in the City of New York is enough to make it the most impressive stadium in the league imho.

I wasn’t refering to the size, mate. I have gone to many of their games (home and away), so know very well the size of their crowds.

I was referring to the design looking quite pedestrian.
