Quick question, will distancing a part of this or is it a straight up reduction where the upper deck or at least a part of it will not be used?

EJsens1 Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 I get the decision to have it at 50% for whatever reasons they have or how it played out. To me it’s bullshit to refund the tickets for everyone and start from scratch. I’d have rather it been done as a lottery and just accepted that’s the way it goes.

Honestly, I would much rather 1000 fans cheering on the team than a stale environment in another country. Even if i don't end up with tickets in the redraw, i am glad the boys will get to play in front of their fans mowe and Shway 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sstackho Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 (edited) I don’t understand what this means from Wheeler’s tweet: I'm hearing as of last week, the game was going to be played in Costa Rica.

Unnamed Trialist Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 I am not trying to be insensitive, but I am tired of this whole business. We have a game against Honduras and it is much more important than who goes to this game in what condition. The result is far more important. You have enjoyed a football match on tv or streamed before, you get to do it again. A result against the US is all that matters to me. The rest is just stupid in the end. If having fans and an atmosphere can help that, then great. But if the CSA had cared about that they would not have scheduled in a stadium so poorly designed for game-day atmosphere. In the end I don't care who goes, or if you go, it matters not a bit to me. The only possibly relevant post in days on this thread was related to McKennie being able to make it or not. The rest is immature fluff. And don't start going off on me because those who had tickets until now felt exactly the same: you had very low to zero sympathy for the thousands who couldn't find tickets. I feel the same.

Olympique_de_Marseille Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 I think I speak for 98% of Vs when I say if capacity is ½, those bloody Forge season-ticket holder code tickets that sat there for hours need to be set at like ⅐ the previous amount! anderi01, ADP10, Club Linesman and 4 others 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administratively, that is a lot of work for the V's to do. Also, if priority is given only to those who managed to purchase tickets in the prior sale, how do you control that only they get access? The V's email list is not the TicketMaster list. Then you get into the problem of those who couldn't find tickets in the V's section so bought elsewhere in the stadium instead... do they get the V's code or do they go with a CSA pre-sale code?

Your understanding for people who booked hotels, spent money on plane/train tickets, whatever else because they had tickets and now might not is truly moving..

Admin Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 I am genuinely curious as to what this alternate plan would be for dealing with the 50% reduction. How would you do it? The 50% capacity was imposed by the City of Hamilton. The city wanted 0. CSA spent weeks negotiating it UP to 50. The province is not the evil one here. Were it only the province, it is likely this game would be 100%. dyslexic nam, Approve My Account Pls, Olympique_de_Marseille and 12 others 8 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking of something more like ticketmaster sending all ticket holders a one time code to the presale or a direct link granting access or something like that. Don't know how you differentiate CSA from V's presale at that point but it's a half baked idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
