The only thing that would move the needle in NY is if an EPL team relocated to NYC. That team would probably sellout Metlife stadium.
The other part of this I would add is prospective owners of the league I will guarantee you see the true numbers and based on how so many want...
anyone else think the US missing the world cup was a much bigger deal then maybe people realized especially with the casual sports fan? The sport...
If you want to eat food. Get there a half hour before kick. There are small lines at every stand. Anyone trying to get food at half time is...
I think the major hurdle a lot of these older teams face is they've been branded as minor league in their markets by fans and the media. So even...
The Anthem is a totally cashless venue. I think pretty soon all new concert venues and stadiums will be cashless.
I find the stadium to be in a fun location of the city to go before and after the game. The sightlines are very good and the atmosphere when its...
Thanks for the responses. I have noticed when ive watched games this year there seems to be emptier stadiums then what ive remembered over the...
any theories on why attendance was down this year? USA missing world cup?

I sometimes wonder if these people constantly complaining arent manic depressive.
As one who lives in NW DC, is anyone else surprised with just 4 months left to the opening you dont see more advertising for the stadium? I...
Howowitz was literally worth 20 million dollars at the time. No comparison.
MLS learned a lesson awhile ago when they let a badly under capitilized owner have a team with Horowitz in Miami. They will never allow that to...
About that...... [MEDIA] I think thats a win for NYCFC. Playing in Long Island would be as problematic as playing in North Jersey for nycfc.
zzzzzzzz
it’s actually the opposite. the holy grail for the league is a big tv contract. they dont need columbus for that but they need dallas and...
I dont want to see them moved or anything but when you look at the statistics like above it doesnt surprise me the league is considering moving...
ashame more of those people dont show up during the season.
Bondy isnt even remotely close to a soccer hater. He's covered the sport for decades in the usa.
You just described every MLS version 1 team.
