Pottsy3 Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 Might be a stupid question, but does anyone know how they’re deciding the host for each round with there only being 1 leg ties. Getting ahead of myself, but hoping Pacific get to host a semifinal match. NVsoccer, ted and narduch 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought I read it was in Hamilton, but that may be just wishful thinking. I thought the crowd, though not overly large last night, was pretty enthusiastic. Seemed like most actually knew this game was important! gator and Cheeta 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RS Posted September 20, 2021 Share Posted September 20, 2021 Unless the forecast changes, there's gonna be monsoon-like conditions* in Toronto on Wednesday. I wonder how that will affect the TFC-York match. * hyperbole on my part, but there's a ton of rain in the forecast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
narduch Posted September 23, 2021 Author Share Posted September 23, 2021 The semi finals are set. They can't be played next week as 3 of the 4 clubs have scheduling conflicts. TFC and Montreal have MLS games and Forge has Concacaf League. There is supposed to be a coin flip to decide who hosts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kent Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Yeah, I don't think many people would call TFC "smaller" than York United, and yet TFC hosted, although obviously that decision doesn't avoid a smaller team having to get on a plane. The games didn't go CPL's way last night, but 2 more games against MLS competition in the next round. I'm looking forward to it even though York United are eliminated.

Probably just wishful thinking on my part. In the FA Cup in England, the team that gets drawn to host can let the "bigger" team host for a share of the gate revenue. It is one away small clubs can make some money from these games. Shway and Bbeto 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We wanted to go to the first TFC match for the fans, but couldn't get it. It was proving harder than I realize to get the tickets. As TFC continues their performance, there is less incentive for us to go. We would end up deciding to focus on going to Canada's games which the energy level is unbelievable and enjoyable. As for the "Battle of York" local derby, yeah we are interested but the longer they delay selling the tickets the harder it is for us to plan for (we both got families with young kids). OMG and we got him fired?!? https://www.whitecapsfc.com/news/playersbest/vancouver-whitecaps-fc-part-ways-with-head-coach-marc-dos-santos Agree on that, good candidate for the Laval team (if that ever happens ofc) Edited September 24, 2021 by keeko Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I almost think there could be more revenue made if Pacific host. And I think TFC should give it up, for the blessing they received this year as being given CCL representers for Canada. gator 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was mentioned on TSN tonight that the VCup semi-finals are most likely going to be played during the international break. It would mean Toronto and Montreal not having their internationals for these pivotal matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
narduch Posted September 26, 2021 Author Share Posted September 26, 2021 Looking at both TFC and Montreal`s schedules the only date that makes sense is during the International break. After that TFC`s next available date is Nov. 3. And Montreal`s next available date isn`t until after Nov. 7 (last day of MLS regular season). nfitz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
