    As if Argos fans even sang that more than once a game, they are to busy eating popcorn. "C'mon you reds" works better.

    Now THAT would fit into the "Arrrrrrgggggggooooossssss" mode.
    How about "GO REDS GO!" Even randoms could pick that one up between their popcorn and peanut breaks.

    I think our traditional chants are just fine. The newbies will just have to catch on.

    T [pause] F [pause] C [pause]

    If we could get everyone to belt this out at once, that would be ok. And, do only a few reps, I don't like that speed up thing, sounds muddled at the end.

    Not a substitution for our usual stuff but IMO about all a stadium wide crowd can handle. Do it a few different times during the game, people will catch on.

    I think we should have a banner saying "CMON YOU REDS" in massive writing, hanging off the 200 level stretching the distance of the south end side.

    There had better be Supporters sections where we can up to the usual shenanigans as we do at BMO Field. I hope the security guys will be experienced at running a TFC-style event, otherwise I can see it being a frustrating night.
    I'm sure the Exec will be on that tho.

    I agree.

    MLSE TO DO LIST:
    1. Market the Fuck out of this thing!
    2. Keep ticket costs low
    3. Giveaway upper levels to every youth team in Ontario- fill it with kids and hot soccer moms.
    4. Create supporter zones so we can chant united.

    Also it is up to us as supporters to sell this thing too. I am planning on purchasing group tickets and hope to bring out as many friends, co-workers, relatives, and teammates as possible. The more the merrier!

    We could very well be seeing Keane/Donovan/Ronaldinho against us, which is quite frankly more intimidating than Beckham being in there instead.

    Why didn't FO announce the venue and match tix well before Christmas.... wouldn't it have been opportune to get in as many tix as Xmas prezzies as possible? Are they waiting for a Galaxy signing? Waiting for the Beckham decision? The MLSE sale?

    I just hope that this delay doesn't hurt ticket sales. They had better market the shit outta this match, not just for gate revenue but for future interest for the club. I'm hoping that the lack of media buzz to date is due to a coming genius sales campaign. End of day they HAVE to sell out the match otherwise they will spoil their best chance at publicity since the Real Madrid match. A full house gives credibility to the event. How many people would follow the WJHC if the stands were half full?

    CONCACAF is not allowing CCL ticket sales until sometime in January. This is really stupid but is one thing that we can't blame MLSE for. Stocking stuffer tickets never was an option for TFC unfortunately. So it doesn't really matter that the announcement was delayed.
