TFC ACADEMY Playoff Thread

[London]

The CSL playoffs have been set and the academy will face Hamilton Croatia in the first round.

It is a home and home starting next week (WED?)with the return leg being on the following weekend.

Hamilton has to decide if they want to go on the road for game 1 or play at home.

the boys realy appreciate the support and want us there in big numbers to help them to victory.

Let me say this,

is the MLS season tired you out, tired of the drunks at BMO, want to stand with likeminded supporters??

Well, the Academy games are far different than BMO.

and at brian timms stadium in the hammer, you can carry a case of beer in with you ( but please do not become a drunkin BMO guy)

:flare::flare::drum::drum:Again the boys need us, they have stated it in messeges.:drum::drum::flare::flare:

[Suds]

Any idea when the schedule will likely be come final?

[London]

the top four need to decide if they start on the road or at home.

not sure when that is but i would assume in the next day or so , so scheduling and promoting can be done


chances are the first match will be the 12th or 13th in toronto and then Fri-sat-sun in hamilton

[Yeoman]

boom you know i'm there with my academy drum
if we get enough interest, perhaps the black one or even red thunder

[Raging Reggie]

Go Hamilton Croatia! :) Hopefully its on a Fri in hamilton so i can attend....

[London]

lets get a big group out,

it is playoffs!!!!

its more entertaining than BMO on most nights,

no supporter group bullshit, we are actually "all for one" there

[Yeoman]

i'd be shocked if i was 30 of our own out
guess if it ain't the MLS, people don't give a shit here

[gmacpheetfc]

id be there if I wasn't at school

[jazzy]

will be there.....hopefully the alzimers doesn't kick in, and I get caught up watchin corny st..lol

[London]

ok,

this is playoffs guys,

there is alot of negativity going around with the big club, well this is not the case at academy games.

I surely had a better time at academy games and CSL in general this last year.

so come on out , bring your voice, your flag, and watch some pretty decent talent on the pitch.

[TFCRegina]

Get on out lads. I would be there if I lived reasonably close to Toronto.

[BeerBaron95]

Get off your asses and come out to support the young reds in what is sure to be a kick ass home and away playoff series with Hamitlon Croatia!!

Im in for both games.

:flare::flare:

[nascarguy]

hamilton vs TFC A on Sunday October 17th is now a 7pm KO and not 8pm

[FluSH]

holy shit... this is my first time checking this thread... I'm trying to piece things together... Oct 17th in Hamilton? I love the Hammer... fuck I lived ther efor 3.5yrs.... who's driving... =)

[Dave67]

Is the Hamilton stadium the one that's beside Ivor Wynne?

[London]

^^^^yes, be there, i know you know where it is now LOL

[FluSH]

^^^
one of the greatest shwarmas nearby if that is the case... the place is a hole in a wall... but $5 for the best Shawrma in the province is well worth it.

[London]

add 2 more ultras to the pile!!!!!!

( i hope you guys can make it out)



again the games are wed at centennial stadium in etob

and sunday night at brian timms ( next to ivor wynne)

[adamdz]

[justin]

[Yeoman]

[Dave67]

Never been to an Academy game. Do I just grab a ticket at the Hamilton stadium? How much? Someone said you can bring beer in. For real? Can I bring a thermos of tea in (I'm not always drunk!)

[London]

^^^ buy it at the gate, openly carry your beer or tea in,

they sell gatorade, pop and chips, 2 bucks each or 3 for 5

[Yeoman]

lol such a good deal
yeah man, byob $10 to get in that i recall of.
dude, i'm just stoked knowing that justin is going to be out at a game this year

[London]

and it will be good to see justin

[BeerBaron95]

[London]

sorry i could not be there guys,

it was either go last night and have to work all weekend and miss 2-3 matches or miss last night and be able to have a free weekend.

i chose to be there on the weekend

[London]

so we were outnumbered at home,

i am so sorry i could not be there.


we need redemption, how can we get 200 supporters to the hammer on sunday???

[rocker]

sorry i could not be there guys,


this apology is just not good enough... think about the kids...

[London]

this apology is just not good enough... think about the kids...

i will issue a full page apology and hold a town hall meeting.

[London]

with it being protest time,

this will probably be the last few times you can go full out for the boys on the field until next season!!!!!


come on, lets be there to push the boys to victory!!!!

[nascarguy]

i will issue a full page apology and hold a town hall meeting.
will there be beer for the kids:drinking:

Got a couple of requests for quotes for a 20 or 32 person bus from To-Hammer for Sunday. Let ya know if I get any response.
Might be something to attract some more supporters Sunday.

I am looking for a ride to the hammer, don't wanna drive. Anyone looking for a carpool homo let me know.

^Maybe with a couple of pick up spots we could get more peeps on board.

you'd have at least my car load full

[king dave]

Exactly!
Scenario;
Pick up @ BMO - 3 pm.
Tailgate at BTS pre-game.
Depart the Hammer around 10ish.
Maybe someone can post something on the members section.
I will follow up on the bus angle further tomorrow.
Huge marathon in Toronto this Sunday so a lot of charter bus lines are booking up .

[Yeoman]

KD; if you can't get them to post here, what makes you think they'd read it in the members section?

i know, i'd make the earth move if i have to in order to get 200 + out
we're lucky to get 20 in To alone, it's embarassing

LOL.... are u serious

Take the Go Train for FFS

[Yeoman]

when does the GO stop on sunday though?
i thought it stopped at nine?
so to get from the stadium to then? it's pretty close isn't it?

[king dave]

LOL.... are u serious

Take the Go Train for FFS
Probably will.
But my experience is if you organize transport for a group you get a few more peeps interested.
GO works for me though.
KD.

[RedsYNWA]

The Go stops in Burlington and you can take the bus connection from there

I'll be there



Cheers

[DavydMT]

i know greed campaign is the priority, but i will ask Boris if he can send email about this CSL game. I think email is the best way to go. Townhall thread has 571 views in less than 12hours.

[nascarguy]

when does the GO stop on sunday though?
i thought it stopped at nine?
so to get from the stadium to then? it's pretty close isn't it?nope the last go train/bus back to tor is 23:30 for bus & for train 22:35

[Yeoman]

not sure where it stops in hamilton for sure personally i've never been there, just a rough idea
sounds like no one has an excuse either way to make it to the game regardless
the bus does stop not even a block away from the stadium

[adamdz]

That leaves room to get lost in the hammer and get stuck there forever... FOREVER

[king dave]

Last train leaves @ 11:30 pm from Hamilton GO Centre.
Easliy share cabs/catch rides with people post game.
$20 round trip.
KD.

[Yeoman]

yeah no one wants that
well, if i didn't have engagement photos to do sunday morning, i'd just stay in to over night and give everyone a lift, i still might do that
i'll keep you posted on saturday

haven't lost my voice at a game in bmo all year, but i sure as fuck did tonight

fun times

thanks to all who came out and brought there voices and support.

I had a BLAST and hope you all enjoyed yourself.

it was nice to chant for the boys, they realy appreciate it.

Something we should focus as a supporters group going into next year....go back to the roots of the group....back when it was having a few pints...singing for the team....hitting the road in big numbers....

the hell with CLUB TIES....THE HELL WITH THE MEDIA TIES,,,,GET BACK TO WHAT WE ARE ....A SUPPORTERS CLUB!!!

My only suggestion, is just the chants. Like they do w/ this site, make them readily available. Two of them I had no idea, so I had to pick up as I went along. Good move by the Capo to do it quietly to pick up the words.

IT was nice to see them come up to you after and celebrate. And good of you guys to clap at the Hammer Cro fans as they walked by. I think one of them made a smartass comment, but I could be wrong.

[Dave67]

Not really a concern. I knew what I was getting into. I knew last night was a great chance to sing for the kids and get together and to do things we can never do at BMO.

With that in mind, no one actually seemed to take any time to watch the game.

i will admitt that i missed big parts of the match seting up and during tifos.

its one of those things that you sacrifice, but i did see a bulk of the match.

its tough, but you can support that style and still see the match,

though i cant speak for anyone else


thanks for coming out

[lips]

Had a great time last night. I wish BMO had a BYOB rule just like here in the hammer.:D
