USMNT vs Honduras @ RFK June 2

Well that would be cool! What an atmosphere the Hondurans and (North)Americans created in their last match at RFK. It was one of the loudest things I have ever heard that didn't involve explosives.

GM

 

US Soccer wants that $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

 

If RFK gets this game, I would be surprised if they got the Panama qualifier.

 

Dude, are you looking past Greneda? Did you see the US game against Haiti? I'm sure whoever the Grenedian coach is he's better than Bruce Arena and will surely outcoach him in a home and home series. If Arena doesn't call Freddy up for that game we have no chance at all.

 

home and away.

home and home means both games are in the same place. a home and home is what the Revolution had to endure in Costa Rica.

 

Intentional error to make the post look stupider, but thanks anyway.

 

Well so many knobs out there think it is home & home there's almost no way to differentiate. Even the isn't a true safeguard anymore

In my experience, Home and Home means one game at each team's home.

 

how much do tickets usually run for games like this?

 

I'd have to agree that a home and home, in hockey anyway, indicates that the same 2 teams play consecutively, with each team getting one game at home.

Two games at home would be a '2 game home stand.'

 

The prices for US v. Mexico at the Cotton Bowl (April 28th) are:

Thank you, most folks who follow int'l soccer call it home-and-home - I agree, that makes no damn sense, it is home-and-away - but I hear it all the time, even like on Sky Sports News, etc. Stupid Brits, who taught them English anyway

 

home and home makes sense - each team plays at home. You people amaze me somtimes.

 

Yeah, the colored smoke bombs were the best.

 

Each team plays away too, why not call it away and away? Home and away easily makes the most sense, because each team plays at home and away. I'm coming from my team's perspective, I could give a toss what the other team's up to.

 

I could care less what they say. They don't even talk right

 

FYI, this game has now been confirmed, but not for RFK -- Foxborough is getting US vs. Honduras on June 2nd.

Also, for those who were worried about RFK getting the El Salvador qualifier, you may be pleased to know that Foxborough has been given that one, too.

So, RFK's only shot at a semifinal round game is against the Panama/St. Lucia winner on Wednesday, October 13.

I can't wait to hear how Boro is packed with Salvadorans. Coz it will happen.

My prediction: RFK will get NOTHING more until we are promised an SSS, this is their bargaining chip. Sneaky and dirty, just like Uncle Phil likes it.

Damn weekday games, I'd love to see this one. Oh well, that's why there are TVs.

I say we pass on the Panama/St. Lucia game - unless they offer free transportation to the away leg if you buy a ticket to the home game

 

Yep. We were outnumbered at the Gold Cup there last year:

 

Oh yeah. Way outnumbered.

I wonder if anyone in US Soccer thought it wouldn't be the case this time around. Especially with the game being on the Saturday of a three-day weekend.

 

And if RFK does get US vs. Panama/St. Lucia, the USSF will have matched their semifinal round locations from the last cycle in exact order:
'00 - Barbados @ Foxborough, Guatemala @ DC, Costa Rica @ Columbus
'04 - El Salvador @ Foxborough, Panama @ DC, Jamaica @ Columbus
