That says supporters section... I wonder if that means the section for the visiting supporters?

Now I know why I see English soccer fans painted up like banners :rolleyes:

What is a visiting supporters section snuggled in something like "flash cards"? They could have a display of sorts...

[Brooker]

rule #8: you have to be a piece of shit to qualify for the thousands of free season tickets.

[redcard]

this year the visit to saputo will be even sweeter!

[kodiakTFC]

I'm pretty confident that rule against wearing TFC isn't actually legal. As for smoke bombs, I've been to Saputo over 10 times and each game the UM02 has used atleast 2 smoke bombs. Their supporters are great at hiding them in and who actually uses it.

[stretchthetruth]

Rule #9: All participants on the "catching" side of glory holes in saputo stadium must be wearing Impact gear. Safety goggles optional.

From my memory, the East Grandstand is on the opposite side of the stadium from where they put us last time.

yup. its their supporter's section, so most of it makes sense, especially the no TFC stuff. though if you're dumb enough to intentionally wear wear an opponents kit in their supporter's section, you deserve whats comin to ya

Rules were meant to be broken. Specificaly the last one! :scarf: :D

Yeah thats hurting.....

[trane]

^ It may mean that even when we are not playing them people were TFC gear at the stadium.

But again that rule makes sense, I know that I would not want someone wearing enemy colours in our supporter sections. It is asking for trouble.

[SilverSamurai]

LOL> too funny.
So TFC is against the rules, but Whitecaps are ok? lol

Really, have to have something wrong if you wear a dif teams colours in someone elses supporters section...

[London]

they hate us so much that they went out of there way to say it

[McGill]

Guys, does anyone know where the visiting TFC supporters to the game on the 12th will be sitting? As I wish to buy tickets and be in the right place!

[deeznutz]

Good for them...Sending them cookies as we speak....

223.

[Naturegirl]

i believe that rule is in direct relation to the burning of one of our scarves the first time we went.

You mean they dont immediately text the ratline and get them kicked out?

If those are stadium rules, presumably they apply to any team canada games held there too.....

[Dbl_D]

lol :facepalm:

Yes, but Honduran jerseys are okay.

[T.O TILL I DIE]

they bolded and underlined TFC ITEMS honestly??

[drewski]

why not?

[drewski]

no, that was added for emphasis by the poster

[I_AM_CANADIAN]

Yes, but Honduran jerseys are okay.
Please don't remind me of that day. :facepalm:

[redcard]

At university during the year, and working during the summer, so it's kinda hard.
Is there anyway I could purchase tickets in Section 223 through the Impact or must it be done some other way?

You can call the impact, or go to the montreal ticketmaster. Just be sure to get tix in section 223

Thanks, I will try as me and a bunch of friends are very interested. Finally time for me to whip out my TFC scarf.

probably about 95% of stadiums in Europe dont let you wear any jerseys but the home team jersey unless you are in a visiting supporters section, otherwise you will either not be let in or you will just be stupid to do it!

This ain't Europe sunshine.

Mark My Words! If Detroit gets an MLS team I will buy seasons and attend evey match with a TFC Jersey on. (except for the weeks I make the trip to Toronto)

I don't know if I'd say Quebec is more "Euro" than Mexico...
Both have certain things/charms, but it's hard to compare a province to a nation.
As far as architecture goes, Mexico has a LOT more to offer, then again the Spanish were there a lot longer than the French were in control of Quebec...
However as far as culture goes, it might be the case... but I don't have enough experience personally...

thats not what Parliament says ;)

regardless, don't say that to a quebecer, especially a separatist quebecer :lol:

Ya I know, a nation within a nation... If thats what keeps them happy then cool...

More like don't say anything to a separatist in anything but Quebecois French! :rolleyes:

[devioustrevor]

223.

When I ordered my ticket they wouldn't let me buy in 223, so I had to buy in 123. Hopefully on game day there's an empty seat in 223 for me or hopefully they'll allow me to exchange my 123 ticket for a 223 ticket.

tell me about it.

being a unilingual torontian with a separatist inlaw makes for fun family reunions

[Ossington Mental Youth]

makes sense to me as it is a supporters section, would you want Impact supporters in our section?

There is no barrier or anything, it is one grandstand (like BMO's east stand)
They must have broken it up for easier entry or something
