Montreal Impact Thread: The XL Edition / #FriendlyCommunity

Did anyone notice all the empty seats at BMO Field? Ownership spends, team is playing well, but still having trouble selling out.

Those who blame Saputo for attendance are just looking for scapegoats. Truth is, MLS is still trying to gain acceptance in some markets - Montreal / Toronto included.

7 years in MLS - 0 playoffs appearance.

What do you expect? Fans to flock BMO field like the previous years didn't matter?

If IMFC continue with the way things have been going on, we will be in worst position a few years down the line. Please try again.


Edit:
Toronto FC attendance

There aren't that much, tbh don't forget the stadium has 30k seats and they are playing a terrible team. vs NYCFC they drew 30 000.

Which means that TFC itself isn't the draw.

Thank you Pablo for selecting Ciman!

 

[Stanley Cup]

They paid around that for Oduro
even a NASL team can afford 200k for a player.

LOL

Remember when our best players were the likes of Charles Gbeke and Nevio Pizzolito, and half the roster had to work part time to survive, good times

Only broadcast the team would get was on Radio-Canada.ca

Well, nice to see him get recognition, but I would have preferred him to stay at home and rest.

Glad Ciman got some recognition, what a beast!

Wow, how awesome it'd be to witness Ciman yelling at Bradley for not covering Eriksen
