    Default TFC @ Club Atletico Independiente, CCL, Feb 19, 2019 match thread

    Can they bring home the CCL title?
    MLS is a tough, physical league, that emphasizes speed, and features plastic fields, grueling travel, extreme weather, and incompetent refs. - NK Toronto

    Is this the earliest ever begun match thread in the history of TFC?

    For road warriors, Aero Mexico is offering flights for $454 return to Panama City. The stadium is located an hour by taxi from the airport.

    I still think Seba, Jozy, Bradley, Vazquez and to a lesser extent Mavinga, Osorio and Ciman are on par with the top talent in North America. The Giovinco factor is huge, we can't forget it. TFC, Atlanta and Tigres have to be in the top 5 teams right now to win it. My one concern is this team is not as dominant without Vazquez healthy

    There is an away travel thread for RPB members. If you want to mention what you are doing here people can comment in this thread.
    That's all I'll say about that.

    No specific plans yet. Someone at MLSE gave me an email of someone from CAI that I can email about getting tickets. Not sure if there's an alternate method or not. I can post my findings here.

    They said they are planning to start ticket sales on January 18th, no further details at this point. They also asked how many are planning on coming, so let me know how many are in your groups and I can along that info.

    On my end I'd be looking at 2 tickets as it would be my friend and I. He's living in Panama right now about 7 hours away from Panama City. He's spoken with the front office there and is still waiting on a definitive reply.

    Looks like you've got the jump, but I will pass along any further info just the same.

    Thanks again for all your efforts!

    So going by Vanney's latest update regarding Altidore "“My understanding is he's starting to run now, do some of the physical stuff; not playing yet,” said Vanney. “It'll be a progression through preseason to get him doing all the things he needs to do to be competitively ready. And then it will be a match fitness thing. Hope is, in the first week to couple weeks of the season, he'll be ready to go.”"

    A couple weeks into the regular season means that should we make it that far we won't have Altidore probably until the semi-finals series which would mean missing this series and the quarterfinals....again, if we make it that far. I really thought he would have been further along than that in his recovery. Would have been nice to have the full first choice lineup healthy at the start of the season and the CCL.

    Hey everyone. I've booked my flights to Panama City. We'll be arriving Sunday Feb 17 midday. Will probably stay in the city for 3 nights, likely at the Eurostars Hotel. (4⭐/$77 per night) I'm Interested in doing old town tours (Casco Viejo) and Canal Museum and the like.
    Wednesday morning we're probably heading to another area of the country for more tropical beach vibes.
    The flights and hotel were quite affordable in the end. About $735 per person, not including our second trip.
    Hope this post inspires a few more of you to join in. Let me know if you need any help finding flights or hotels.

    20 matches included, page specifically says 2 V-Cup and 1 CCL. Last year it was 1 of each plus a floater. So I assume they'll charge more for CCL than V-Cup...

    Yeah they don't want to have a >10,000 attendance for the Canadian Final again so both CanChamp games are included this year.
    We would have to pay for 3 rounds of the CCL should we go all the way again.

    Pardon where is this thread? Can't find it.

    Anyone heard any news about tickets? I'm starting to get a little antsy. I've tried calling TFC and they were clueless. CAI hasn't responded to my email. Can anyone help?

    You can't find it because you are not a member of the Red Patch Boys, and it's in the section for members only. To join, you need to pay membership dues ($25 has been the cost the last several years) and go through a brief interview process to see if you agree with our aims and our charter. Information is here, probably will be updated soon for 2019: http://redpatchboys.ca/membership/

    Member dues pay for this message board and for our TIFOs and other displays. We organize group away trips open to members only.

    I say its a safe bet that you'll be good if you show up and get a ticket there.

    After the events of this week, I'm thinking "nope". Too much upheaval, chemistry will be out of sorts, and they're missing key players from last year's CCL squad. They'll get past Independiente, but I think Toluca will put them to the sword.

    My contact at CAI gave me this: https://ventas.ticketplus.com.pa/eve...s.asp?evt=1181

    Not on sale yet but seems like the right place.
