What section did you get? I've had the same tickets in 225 for ten years sitting in acres of space half the time and come the final they gave me the boot "sorry the suits get those." ended up with decent 222's but still all my fellow long time sufferers are scattered to the winds. sucks.

Tried to get more in the window they gave me-sold out in 3 mins no chance. Selling for 5x online those are.

Anyway nonetheless getting very excited about this. -2C and snowing perfect.

Michael Bradley is a nasty c*nt isn't he? Jordan Morris burst past him with the ball so Bradley swung a leg at him twice. Somehow the ref failed to give a free kick or a card. He seems to be massively overrated by everybody surrounding the MLS, he's shite.

mc_red22 · « **Reply #203 on:** December 11, 2016, 01:48:36 am »

This ref needs to decide if he's going to play on or stop immediately for free kicks, he's all over the place.

seems a bit boring so far

mc_red22 · « **Reply #205 on:** December 11, 2016, 02:03:03 am »

All the fouls that have been committed so far and Chad Marshall gets booked for something that isn't even a foul. Again, this ref is shit, he has no clue.

mc_red22 · « **Reply #206 on:** December 11, 2016, 02:49:21 am »

Giovinco gets away with a foul for the 5th time tonight, play carries on, Jones is holding somebody off the ball but then starts throwing his arms around everywhere and catches the guy in the face but the ref only gives a yellow when it's a clear red. Both of these attacks have been embarrassing, some of the worst attacking play I've seen all season. Not heard Morris' name mentioned for about an hour, he's been shite.

please, I have my reasons for it but... · « **Reply #207 on:** December 11, 2016, 03:00:53 am »

Is that Benoit Cheyrou related to our Bruno?

Yeah they are brothers, I think Benoit Cheyrou used to play for Marseille.

I remember him playing against us in the Champions League for them.

Ivanschitz having all sorts of shit thrown at him from the stands yet the ref stands there and laughs. Fucking cretin.

Roldan gets hacked down, it was an obvious Seattle free kick and a booking yet Toronto gets the free kick

This ref should be sacked, I've seen better during a kids 5 a side game.

That was an absurdly bad call. Then Brad Friedel trying to justify it was worse.

Why is Fernandez taking a pen? He showed in the game he can't even kick a ball.

Penalties are just such a crapshoot in any league.

Awful camerawork, do the cameramen know this isn't baseball or some other American sport? They almost missed that last penalty as well.

Camera work across most broadcasting companies has been a bit of a joke in recent years. For some reason they seem to think it's an amazing idea to show slow motion replays for 30 seconds whilst the game (whatever the sport) is going on so you miss what's happening.

Unlucky Toronto. Much the better team, and facing a goalkeeper who had a terrific night.

Fair do's to Seattle though, very hard to play a final in somebody else ground. They kept a very potent attacking team fairly quiet for 120 minutes.

coolbyrne · « **Reply #228 on:** December 11, 2016, 04:32:12 am »

Seattle wins MLS Cup without registering a single shot on target in 120 minutes. I don't care what Alexi Lalas thinks about the MLS and how a helicopter full of random players could be dropped into the EPL and fans wouldn't notice a drop in quality; that's a poor display of football right there.

Sometimes you have to play ugly like that when you're the away team in any game. It's not as though they sat behind the ball and did nothing though, they still attacked. When your 2 most creative and attacking players have major off days then I guess you have to change things up and concentrate on the other side of the ball. It was a major disappointment for me though, Seattle have looked very good attacking wise for a few months so that last night was somewhat of a surprise.

Its Alexi Lalas, he probably thinks Bob Bradley is as good as Guardiola or Klopp.

Watching the new teams play each other here on Sky. 3-1 to Atlanta at HT. Conditions have been mad with heavy snow.

Minnesota have had chances to close the score, but look shit defensively, conceded 5 last week too. Suppose it's to be expected of a team just joining the league, but Atlanta have taken their chances here.
