172 listings for tonights match. Over 300 tickets for sale. Many available in the South end for $30.
Isn't this kind of high? I wonder if the turnout will be poor tonight..........

Got to agree. I love mid week evening games. One of my favorite TFC games is season 1 vs Houston in the rain. What a great night that was. Andy Welsh with the gwg!

remember the NY fizzy drinks on that cold foggy night under the floodlights? Classic footy weather- bring it on! Gimme that over 35c and humidity anyday especially for a sweaty bastard like me !
Lowest attendance tonight...
^^ last year against NYRB was epic
to all those who said this was never possible last week..
'no way ticket demand will go down.'...'
it all starts with a glut of tickets people are trying to sell, usually in the higher end. it'll be the same next wednesday regardless of the weather
This is definitely going to be the beginning of the end of a sold out BMO Field for every game.
It also doesn't help exposure-wise that most of the games are on GolTV which not everyone subscribes to.
Are you guys surprised when MLSE owns the team AND the channel? I'm sure as hell not.
This is the perfect storm:
- 6 degrees
- weekday evening
- raining
- we haven't won at home
- star player is hurt
- there's another home game in 3 days
I could care less if the game sells out....as long as the supporter groups are going MAD!...and the team is able to feed off of it!!.....all will be ok!

I don't recall ever seeing so many tickets available before. Though I'm trying to grab a decent cheap pair for the Chicago game, and there's nothing - so I don't think it's a demand issue, more so the weather.
And I guess I'm guilty too, as I'll be watching from the couch with my 18-month old daughter; I'd be sorely tempted to grab a cheap single and bring her if it was warm tonight, but I don't think 6°C and rainy is fair to her. However, I've organised a sitter for the important Wednesday night games next month!
don't read too much into a wednesday night game not being sold out...weather aside....
wednesdays are big nights for kids programs, so a lot of people that go to bmo for the games, can't wednesday due to playing "taxi" for the little ones...
ALSO...
a lot of us don't live in T.O. (i'm in London for instance) but there are a ton of us supporters who commute to these games!! KW, London, Steeltown, Sania/Windsor etc...NOT EVERYONE IS IN THE GTA believe it or not!! lol
don't worry if there are 2,000 empty seats tonight, support the team, eat ur mac n cheese fries, and have ur carlsberg...ENJOY it...

no actually its great that mlse bought goltv because this year finally we have coverage for every game
goltv,rogers sportsnet and cbc i believe are the channels
goltv is only $ 2.65 a month and its soccer specific channel so many many games in europe and south america can be watched
THANKS MLSE FOR BUYING GOLTV --- WE LOVE YOU
wow 2016 and things are looking up --- come on you reds lets go
Gol tv is airing the game for free..I have bell & don't have Gol tv but they unblock it for the TFC Games!!
on a side note...26 degrees on saturday!! & 23 on sunday...great weekend weather!!!
I have Rogers and it wasn't unblocked for the last game
they sould unlock for all games untill tv ratings increase
Rogers ch 428 was UNBLOCKED!!!! they did wait until 7pm to unblock it, but we had it 4 mins into the match!!!
1-888-764-3771 if you have a prob
not only was it a "freeview preview" the girl hooked me up with the sports package for a 3 month free trial, lol
doesn't hurt to ask!!!!!
Serves MLSE right for holding back tickets. Just sell all the tickets at the beginning of the year.
They have to hold back tickets for a few different reasons. It's not like they do it for fun.
How many real supporters do you think there are? As much as part time supporters/soccer moms, call them what you like, aren't ideal, If they all give up and stop coming then Bmo will be as empty as Pizza Hut park, just noisier.
We could knock down the east stand to put in the bouncy castles.
