Shway Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 .... Do we really, trully think having the roof open is a tactic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king1010 Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 .... Do we really, trully think having the roof open is a tactic? not sure. better open with the low tn being 6 degrees as opposed to closed though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDub Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 .... Do we really, trully think having the roof open is a tactic? Yes I do. It is currently 37 degrees in Honduras. It is 11 in Vancouver. So any of the visiting team that plays at home on a regular basis this change will be quite a shock. This is why a lot of people were calling for the game to be played somewhere outdoors.

Honduran journos were jogging on the spot to keep warm during training yesterday and the roof was closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deltron Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 Well there is a high of -8 today in Whitehorse, maybe we can move the match there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpg75 Posted November 13, 2015 Author Share Posted November 13, 2015 If every other federation tries to gain a home field advantage then we should be doing the same thing. There is no dishonour in having the roof opened so that we play the game in single digit temperatures. By the way, the Hondurans just spent the last week in Houston where the daily high was in the mid-20's. Looks like the rain passed over because the forecast is for 1mm this afternoon. Game time temp. of about 9C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steedman Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 Really pumped for this game. Don't know if it's the new faces, the promising showing against Ghana, or just blind Canadian pride, but I can't wait for Kick off. Let's go Canada.

Vancouver Fan Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 What are the chances of it snowing today? It snowed on Grouse last night. If Hondurans somehow look north they will see that "Winter is Coming." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Califax Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 Also, it's 2 degrees with a chance of snow in Ottawa. They should be considered for March. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obinna Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 For Whitecaps fans that go to BC Place on the regular, is there really a difference in having the roof open? Is it noticeably colder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red card Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 Honduran journos were jogging on the spot to keep warm during training yesterday and the roof was closed. And Canadian players were wearing winter coats. If Honduras thought weather was an issue for them, they wouldn't have trained in Houston. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canada1 Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 Everyone going to the match tonight take care. Awful news coming out of Paris at this time. over 60 dead and 100 held hostage at a concert. The bomb could be heard outside the France and Germany match.

aloyol Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 This was a very exciting day until that happened. Very sad news out of Paris. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king1010 Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 And Canadian players were wearing winter coats. If Honduras thought weather was an issue for them, they wouldn't have trained in Houston. don't think it was a wise decision by honduras to train in 25 degree weather in the lead up to a game played in 5 to 10 degree weather. would love to see them "not thinking weather was an issue" backfire on them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norvansupport Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 For Whitecaps fans that go to BC Place on the regular, is there really a difference in having the roof open? Is it noticeably colder? Yes, a breeze usually picks up when the roof is open. It can be brisk in there usually however I'd expect it to be cold tonight.

Olympique_de_Marseille Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 Awful news coming out of Paris at this time. Since tension is obviously running high, I think everybody should avoid flares/smoke bombs tonight whatever the result may be. Don't try and bring those into the stadium.
