Confirmed

[Varsity Tyler]

Very nice! I'll be flying home to catch this one : )

[rick10]

it should be a good game for canada. Peru did really bad last qualifier but they were missing 5 key players.

Peru is a strong side with all their players , so it will be a competitive game for canada !

Somewhere in Toronto, BrennanFan is experiencing multiple orgasms.

[SilverSamurai]

When and where can we buy tickets?

Their should be designated supporters sections to avoid any problems.

I will def. not be missing this game!

Again I hope that BMO field (National stadium-for that day at least) and the CSA can organize ticket distribution even better than the Jamaica game. I loved how the south stands looked but I'd like to know if the V's travelling to the expect/want to have a seperate section again. If so, count me in again.

When will tickets be going on sale???

As cool as it was to see Canadian supporters dominate three of the four corners of BMO Field for the Jamaica game, I'd like to see all supporters united in the south end for this one.

Yes. Rudi and I talked about it the other day.

They now have Capo stands ect...

What might be good is a 'family oriented' kids section in 111. Close enough to 'feel' it, far enough away from Grizzly so they are not traumatized.

[devioustrevor]

I'm thinking I'm going to break two ducks with this game. My first game at BMO and my first NT game. Well, my first footy NT game. I've seen plenty of Lacrosse and a few hockey games.

[Bertuzzi44]

Count me in! Where can I get my tickets!

[Edgar]

I'd go with two of Gabon/Peru/Honduras/Costa Rica.

CSA must be reading this forum They chose their opponents from my list

+1. As somebody with kids, I think this is a brilliant idea. If there is enough support to divide among a number of sections you might as well do this.

Might want to move em a leeetle bit further. 111 works well with us in 112 and 113. I'd really love to see a united endeavor for tix from the V's and the TFC supporters groups (Who should all be V's anyway:-).

Totally agree. It would be nice to have the Vs in the south end but recognized as a distinct group from RPB and U-Sector, even though there is a good deal of overlap amongst the TFC supporters.

Since this is a CANADA game, any UM02 and Southsiders showing up should feel to be made welcome in the south end without having to necessarily be "lumped" in with the TFC groups. They may feel slightly uneasy about it...ok, very uneasy about it. :-)

[Admin]

As far as I know, the TFC STH are offered seats, not their seats to the game.

If you moved them to 110, you could end up with a gap you don't want cause there is no guarantee the current 111 people will be there.

Well the same thing happens in Montreal.

The local SG provides the base and we all coordinate/work together under the flag of the V's for Canada games.

Obviously TFC fans have a certain 'chromatic advantage' when it comes to gear/flags ect... for Canada games.

If our ultimate goal is to own the stadium, then I really don't care what people wear. It won't matter.

As I was saying to socceronly last week, I think 114 is prime V's territory.

It's all well and good having a dedicated V's section on the other side of the stadium, but if we want a unified voice, when need to be unified in the stand. Section 114 of BMO Field is not claimed by any current TFC supporters group (there are a lot of U-Sector and RPB scattered in there, though), so let's claim it for the V's. They'd be right next to the established TFC groups (aside from NEE, of course), which really is optimal.

Let's face it, though, there probably aren't going to be enough non-Toronto Voyageurs at BMO Field for a friendly to convincingly fill an entire section.

They don't have to be non Toronto.

Lots of Toronto people who are not connected to any SG will be out for national team games.

For all I care, anyone who shows up to a national team game to support Canada can do almost anything they like. However, I do think it should be done under the flag of the Voyageurs. I would support rep banners from the SG's across the country (even if they are not able to make it) united with the Voyageurs. With a low frequency of events, scattered community of people who come and go and difficulty in communication, people are going to show up in Impact Jerseys, TFC gear, ManU gear... ect... probably every red jersey on the planet will be represented. So instead of us wasting energy complaining about this stuff lets try and embrace it a bit while still emphasizing Canada/V's gear in the long run. If UMO2 sends a bus full of supporters to a national team game they can wear whatever they like.

Our first and foremost job is to own the stadium and all the SGs need to be united to do that.

*Yes there is one red jersey that shall remain forever ridiculed.

Well I am a non Toronto V and you can count me and one or two others from St.John's. I can't wait!

Sounds good to me.
