Pre-match: BACK FROM SUMMER BREAK! MLS MATCHDAY 14 CREW VS NASCAR FC SATURDAY JUNE 18 730PM (CHARLOTTE FC)

And a Clippers game too--at 5:05 pm.

 

Opponent that hasn't won a road game in their existence + gorgeous weather + big crowd, (hopefully) riding high on news of a new DP signing + loud, rowdy Nordecke = Caleb Porter shits the bed. Lose by two.

 

If we go by history, that's not a bad way to bet...

And Harry scores one too. [BTW, I hope we do something for him either pregame or at a break.]

 

or more

 

It sounds like Jardy is on the beat for this week's game. Going with a 1-1 draw.

 

From an email:

This Saturday is also the last game in which STM gift pickup is available.

 

Not great Bob

 

Is Molino really questionable?

 

I question his signing nearly every day...

 

I’m gonna laugh when Matan doesn’t start yet again.

 

When did this 96 minute thing start? I noticed that a couple places. I take it that it's supposed to be an homage to 1996 with a nod to approximate game time with stoppage time?

 

And I'm gonna be angry.

 

Molino will be available tomorrow, and Cucho Hernandez it is at striker. Dee and Jimmy are in town too.

 

It was a few games ago, but I don't think it was in effect for the last game or two.

It also sounds like post-game autograph sessions are seriously being considered for future games. They're just doing tickets to try to make it a little more personable than having a long line with 5-6 seconds per player after waiting for a long time. My rep also gave me the heads up that it could be 45-60 minutes after the game for players to come out. Obviously, things have changed from the autograph sessions of yesteryear in regards to player post-game rituals when they'd come out relatively quickly.

 

My rep gave me 4 tickets for the autograph session, told me to wait about 45-60 min after the game.

 

But how will people beat the traffic if they're waiting an hour after the match for Joshy's autograph?

 

If only Hernandez could play now instead of July 9th

mls rules , timing of window could they be made better to help mls teams ?

 

We offered a 2 year deal, everyone with a brain offers him 1 and he gets 700k which would be reasonable if he was healthy for all 34 games

 

I'm ready for a disappointing terrible game

4-4-2

Molino on the bench, as is JRR and Farsi.

 

Probably more like a back 5 with Etienne kind of floating up more, depending on the situation. Would have liked Diaz starting up top as a second striker. We will try to grind out 70 minutes and try to steal a win.

Also Etienne looks buffer???

 

Positive = Two forwards.

Negatives = They are Berry and Hurtado.
