where are the NJ/NY fans at?

Maybe because the team hasn't actually played a game yet?

 

Well, neither have the Red Stars or Athletica, and you've got some pretty robust fan groups going already. Same for the Freedom and Breakers. I'd have thought Sky Blue would have some momentum after two seasons of W-league play. You've got to have someone willing to lead the effort, and I think that's what's probably lacking.

 

During the first year of W=League they had a fan group... ok - it was like 3 people

anyway... my point is that no one is willing to do the supporters group and work with the team..

 

I'd be more apt to be a big fan if I could actually find their schedule anywhere on their website.

 

It will be up on Monday, you can find a preliminary one on www.womensprosoccer.com.

 

The NY Power played out in no mans land. Yurcak Field is very close to major highway system. If you build it they will come. Have faith.

 

I will be driving back from the Houston Dynamo @ DC United game on Sunday, so I might stop by here. Any word on a standing section?

 

does Zhang ouying is a Trial training player right now?

 

Here's one.
& If any NYC fans need to get the opening game - we can take a few in our car. PM me.

 

According to one of the Sky Blue blogs, she has a knee injury (pre-existing, if I remember correctly) that will require further attention, so she is returning home for treatment. I imagine that rules her out for this year.

 

now this is getting freaky. There are only 42 posts on this thread, but there are EIGHT HUNDRED for the Breakers?! I hope this is a colossal accident and no indication of fan turnout.

 

The team is offering special ticket packages until March 13.

Individual tickets at the group rate of 15... family pack for 40 still being offered

if possible.

on TV.... cheering up!

 

I know some people from the Empire Supporters club (NY Red Bulls) are going to the opening match

 

I wonder if Sky Blue will score a goal before Red Bull?

 

with the firepower they have on the team (O'Reilly, Kai) you'd figure they will

 

Um, didn't they just play your team and score?

 

technically it was considered an own goal on Heaps

 

I am hoping to move to NYC by the end of the year... Even if I'll miss the first season, I'll definitely get season tickets next year if I'm there!!!!

 

i'll probably attend a game or 2 to check it out. unfortunately i'll be in europe for the first 2 home games, which i would rather attend, but i can make it out to rutgers no problem at some point during the summer. i hope there is a decent standing section.

$19 for a ticket though? i pay less than that for RBNY tickets.

 

I'm wondering the SAME thing as the OP. WHERE are all the fans for Sky Blue?? You guys have a VERY LOW amount of posts in this section. LESS than 100 posts while all other WPS teams have SEVERAL hundred.

This is not a good sign as it could be a reflection of lack of interest at the gate for your first game. I hope I'm wrong but how do you explain it?

 

Maybe they are all tweeting or twittering.

 

I posted this on the LA thread, but does anyone known which games will be on matchtracker this weekend and who is tweeting from the games?
