Was hoping for something closer to downtown but that will be my backup. I'll try and make a couple of calls later to pubs. I really wish we still had that Arsenal Supporter Club in Ottawa.Try the Senate on Bank st just south of TD Place i believe they show lots of soccer.
I was at the match. Good lord Hartford is awful. I have no idea how they could've assembled a roster this putrid and sad. The worst thing is that the support is there. They are getting 7-8k a match at Rentchler (a college football stadium that basically cost exactly the same as a new arena that would've saved the Whalers would've cost because the state is run by morons) which would be above the 6.5k capacity of their future permanent home of Dillon Stadium. And yes, Brass Bonanza is played after goals.Fury continued to pick up points as they drew 1-1 in Hartford last night, although they did drop a position to 7th.

They have been losing more money even without Soccer put into the equation. Their forecasts of available revenue's was obviously flawed. The expected 1 million more people to visit the site.By being forced to join the CPL, OSEG was going to be on the hook for another big expansion fee. This made zero financial sense for an organization that had already paid two expansion fees, and was bleeding red ink on soccer with no end in sight. Basically, the soccer higher ups gave OSEG a reason to bail out of soccer and focus on hockey and football, where they stand a good chance of breaking even and perhaps making some money in a good year...
Looks like soccer may not miss a beat in Ottawa.
