Real Madrid Details Released by TFC

[ExiledRed]

for a league that has lost millions of dollars, i can't see why they wouldn't make a change for a friendly that will bring in $$

So one of the teams that's operating in the black, has to fuck it's chances in the arse for the rest of the useless empty stadium teams like Dallas?

MLS should be moving those teams to cities that can support them, like Montreal and St.Louis, not pissing off the people who are actually bringing in the $$$$

[TOBOR !]

Is DERO over reacting too?

DeRo's complaint is valid, ours is not.

[sarcasm]We think we're important to the team and the league and that without us both would soon cease to exist. After all, we showed everyone in MLS how to support your team and became the template for other supporters groups - I'm sure we're responsible for all the recent expansion as well due to TFC's box office success.[/sarcasm]

We expect consideration, and when not getting it our feelings are hurt and we want recompense.

I have an International Friendly included in my partial pack. I didn't buy that partial pack because I thought that ticket would get me in to see TFC play RM.

Why on God's Green Earth should anyone expect RM to show up to play TFC ?

I honestly have no issue with TFC FO over this. I'm interested to see who the other team TFC gets will be, and if it's Burnley I'll have a chuckle at my own expense, because truthfully, this is more our calibre and I think they'd stuff us.

Playing against RM and dragging in grass is way over the top to begin with.

Think about it. We have no business playing against Real Madrid.

Actually, now I've made myself laugh... imagine, a third year, upstart, self-important MLS team standing on the same pitch with a much-storied and lauded side as Real Madrid.

oh, me... us.... whatever.

Although there will be loyalty concessions for TFC season-ticket holders, seats are expected to range from roughly $150 to $200 – a substantial hike from the $23 for the lowest-priced ticket for a regular MLS game.

Oh - I can't wait for Monday

[Chevy]

I think you will see a range from $125 - $275

What the "loyalty" price is anybody's guess - likely a twenty percent discount, not inclusive of a twenty-five percent "loyalty service charge"

[rocker]

but no, taking us to the cleaners is the option chosen.

it's your choice to be "taken to the cleaners" or not.

As a consumer, you can choose not to spend the money if you think it's overpriced.

I don't really care either way. Friendlies bore me, so I'd have a hard time paying my usual $40-50 for a meaningless game. But I hope people dont mindlessly buy this game just because it's Real Madrid. Then they just have themselves to blame.

[felipe]

wow...I was seriously thinking of going...I mean...Real Madrid! But I would never pay that much for an exhibition game... (maybe if it was the Derby County game I was promised...)

But fuck me - $200???

[Mikey]

Yay!! we can all be scalpers for a day!!
I got four tickets in 112.....ONE MILLION DOLLARS.....
Who wants 'em?

[RPB_RED_NATION_RPB]

Season Seat Holders will get %10 off FAce value!.....yep thats LOYALTY!

SOURCE!....TFC REP! .....good enough????

[Chevy]

Where did you see the 10% discount info?

[English Rachel]

Season Seat Holders will get %10 off FAce value!.....yep thats LOYALTY!

Surely not...

[REDPATCHGRL74]

Yay!

[REDPATCHGRL74]

Not!

[boban]

Globe makes mention that tickets will range from $150 - $200.
Not clear if this is the loyalty price or not.
Personally, $150 for seats behind the net is way overpriced.
I am going to have to rethink that.

[Mikey]

Wow, if these prices a right, ML$E is setting up a home game for Real Madrid at BMO.......

[I_AM_CANADIAN]

mh. Even if that's true, I'm not an SSH, so it doesn't really matter, unless the loyalty bonus includes people on the Red list.

[TOBOR !]

Bring on Burnley !

[Nuvinho]

I hope it rains the day they put down the temporary grass, then the rest of the time it is down, making it virtually impossible to play on........and refunding all ticketholders their money back.

Get stuck with the cost of the grass....that's what happens for being greedy!!!!

[Shep]

I think that this deserves it's own hread. Mods may not. Feel free to delete, if you wish.

Toronto FC to host Spanish Giants Real Madrid

The match is scheduled for Friday, August 7 at 7:30pm at BMO Field.

Ticket information for the Real Madrid game will be released Monday, June 8; however, Toronto FC season-seat holders and members of both the Gold and Red waiting lists will each have an advanced window with which to purchase tickets at a special loyalty price. Information regarding date and time of each pre-sale window will be sent directly to these groups.

I guess we will find out pricing on Monday!

Sweet, hope I can get a hold of a pair of tickets. I'm excited, should be nice day out.

Yes, wishing bad things to happen to others is pretty cool.
