Anyone down for a CL away trip? It'd probably not be very cheap, but it would be fun to look into and if there's a possibility of cheap Mexican whores and Tequila.....
The part that sucks is that I'd love to do a trip, especially in the first stage where we could have the chance to go to Honduras/Guatemala/Belize, etc. But we won't even know till the end of July for the draw, and then putting a trip together within a month is going to be a pain.
What's going on with weeks 16 and 17? Is that SuperLiga or something? My birthday falls in that time and I would have probably gone to a game around the 18th if they were home.
Interesting (to me, anyway) that the schedule is 31 weeks long. It's been 29 for the last few seasons.
As far as road trip goes...this schedule sucks bigtime!~ Possible road trips for me....in order of course! 1. July 4 - L.A. Galaxy 2. Aug 16 - San Jose 3. Sept. 20 - Colorado 4. Aug 23 - Toronto Of course I'll be driving down to Jersey...but I hardly consider that a road trip! As far as tickets for LA away go, don't the teams have to hold a certain number for away travelling support?? I'm sure we could get some help from the Revs FO on this no??
I hope they dont try to make people buy tickets to 4 games just to see him like they did last year. Karma will make sure he's hurt again.
I hope to see some of you in Colorado on September 20th! As I said in my blog I hope the Revs bring the second best fans in the league with them (What, you really think I was going to rank you over my fellow Rapids fans? ).
Added in the second round matchups above. BTW, Dominica tied at home against Barbados last night. They play at Barbados at the end of March. US @ Barbados, that would be fun! I can't find the dates of the group stage of the CONCACAF qualifying.
Revolution Schedule Released: Do They Know About The CCL? http://bluebloodedjourno.com/?p=218 February 7, 2008 Just a few observations. The biggest of all: we only play NY twice!
Well, it was more like 2 months in advance since they announced the first couple of fixtures a while back, FYi… 6-7 weeks is normal for football leagues around the world. I think its plenty of time. It’s not like the old days when buying an airline ticket 2 weeks in advance was a lot more expensive than buying one 3 months in advance. TBH, I’m baffled as to why anyone would need (or even WANT) to plan a trip so far in advance!?
I've added a composite schedule thread to keep the full schedule available to everyone. If anyone sees a mistake, please let me know. Edit: We play two games against everyone but the following four teams that we play three times: Chicago (2 home, 1 away), DC (2/1), KC (1/2) and Crew (1/2).
Exactly. Especially if you're trying to do something where you've got a group of people who want to go.
I'm in for the NY road trip, the Toronto trip, the away match in Colorado (Jeff has family out there), and possibly the Columbus match. I would love to watch the Revs in the Champions League somewhere tropical but that may be out of my price range.
We play SuperLiga in July. Which I am rather excited for. The Mexicans will be totally out of their element up here.
here are the CONCACAF WCQ dates for the semi-finals... 1. 20 August 2008 2. 6 September 2008 3. 10 September 2008 4. 11 October 2008 5. 15 October 2008 6. 19 November 2008 The Revs are scheduled to host DC on August 20, which is a Wednesday. Coincidence?
I haven't seen anything definitve but I heard that SuperLiga is going to be played in Mexico this year. Has anyone seen anything on this?
Its reported on MLSnet that we're one of the squads included in the tourney. No comment on location of these games but you've got to figure they'll play at gillette, especially against the bigger Mexican sides.
The players certainly talk as if it is a done deal. http://www.boston.com/sports/soccer/articles/2008/02/07/revolution_focus_on_cup/ "We joke about it, because the Superliga [in July and August] will have more money," midfielder Shalrie Joseph said yesterday. "But our goal is to win the MLS Cup. We've been to the MLS Cup four times and we want to win it this year."
I am in for th TFC trip. Will be a very fun day go to Sox/Jays @ 1pm, then head to BMO for the Revs game at 730. NOT STAYING AT THE TRAVELODGE!
I am under the impression that there are no home games in SuperLiga - last year it was all US, this year all Mexico. I didn't pay much attention to it last year, so I may be completely out to lunch.
