Celtic vs. Chivas de Guadalajara
Giants Stadium - East Rutherford, New Jersey
July 14, 7:45PM EST

Now that the match is back on, does anyone know if there are any plans to organize a Celtic supporters section (like we had in East Hartford against Liverpool)? I left a message on the Manhattan CSC boards too.

Barcelona v Chivas (MEX) tickets in LA are $50 and lower. Actually, onfield seats are $90 I think.

To add insult to injury there is a Red Bulls v. Rapids game @ 2:00 p.m. edt on the same day @ the same place.

From the Rapids Board:

The Chivas/Celtic match is set for 7:45 that night. Ideally, the two games would be combined into a single-admission doubleheader. However, based on the 2:00 start time, I assume that each match is a separate event with a separate admission. Especially since RBNY has nothing to do with the marketing and promotion of Chivas/Celtic, which is why RB season ticket holders were not offered a discounted presale.

I’m a Colorado boy. So If I make my way out to the Stadium for the 2:00 game (over by 4:00) and absent an invite from the Bhoys to assist with pre game warm-up what kind of entertainment, amusement, pubs can I anticipate waiting for me in the proximity of the Stadium??
I anticipate the answer might be a warm 6 pack in the parking lot.

Now this should be a great crowd. 2 of the most popular clubs in North America. Hope the football is good too.

Hopefully the game is much better cause the games in Poland were extremly poor at best.

You watch 75% or more of the crowd will be for Celtic! I still don't see all these new Chelsea supporters after Roman has spent 500 million pounds in the last 2 seasons.

Actually Cat i have seen a few pop up here recently and the funny thing is they are all Mexican? I don't get it. You would think they would be sporting Bolton or Barca Jerseys for Borgetti and Marquez. :D

That's pretty much your only option. There is a pub that takes about 20-25 minutes to walk to from the stadium and that is the closest option. They don't call it the Swamp for nothing. It's literally built in the middle of a swamp with highways all around. Maybe the racetrack will be open.

Those are the bests bring some beers and a ball and you will have a better time than you would at an overcrowded pub. I remeber tailgating for the Celtic-ManU and Celtic-Pool matches. Had a lot of fun with some folks that made the trip from the Ire and Scot as well as some ManU lads.
