Orlando City SC Discussion Thread

Congrats to Cyle Larin on his first goal. Well done, rookie. Not often you see a chested in goal as sweet as that.

Molino has been running like a mad man. Still wished he'd shoot more.

We're winning a very physical match and that's why Portland fans are booing us.

Let's see how we finish the 2nd half.

Ricketts has made a nice save or two.

Ceren and Higuita need to up their play or else get subbed out.

Great win, needed this one after a couple of tough Weeks. Hopefully we can get rolling now.

Fantastic win! Looking for more goals.

I have been pretty impressed with our play with a few exceptions where we lost our brain a little. Really happy with the team so far.

The stadium site is not looking good at all. I think there are some real changes coming to our build schedule as there is simply no way we start next year in the new building. I know OCSC wants to ride out the current momentum and they probably don't know what to say anyway reguarding the stadium. I know they will do there best but stand by for a delay announcement. These delays may keep us from building it too small but i'm still going to bitch about it.

I think there is going to a design change as its obvious there is a strong support and the stadium should be built with a higher capacity, more than they anticipated and I honestly don't see support decreasing much. I think 30k sounds like a really good number to cap it off.

AdamTheGreek · Post #247 » by **AdamTheGreek** » Sat Apr 18, 2015 12:56 pm

30k is too high. The possible range is between 20k and 28k.

I still stand by 23k, max 25k. If there's a waiting list for season tickets, then there's a waiting list. It won't be 10,000 people on a waiting list like Portland supposedly has. 3-5k? That's healthy.

The good news is, the construction is on schedule and won't need to be delayed one bit by the time OCSC figures out what capacity they want.

Remember, the season runs through the summer months of people hitting vacations and schools being let out. We'll see how attendance looks in June and July.

It's a good 'problem' to have.

What a disaster feels like I am watching a Magic game.

I did talk to my rep about the stadium issue and I wouldn't be surprised to see them build it as is and make the planned expansion to 25,000 sooner than later.

25,000 can make some noise.

Tough game vs Toronto tomorrow. Hope we rebound from last week

I'm feeling our first home win today.

Well, there are a lot of tourists in Orlando these months too, I see a lot of brazilians attending this games to watch Kaká, for example.

Why is it so hard for this team to score at home?

orlando1214 · Post #255 » by **orlando1214** » Mon Apr 27, 2015 12:57 am

This crap is frustrating to watch.

Could it be the turf? It seems awfully slippery.

I have noticed a lot of slips from both Orlando and TFC tonight.

Optimus_Steel · Post #257 » by **Optimus_Steel** » Mon Apr 27, 2015 2:23 am

Went to the game it was terrible. The crowd wants to cheer so bad but they're losing their spirit because they keep playing like crap. They haven't even come close to scoring a goal at home. Their attempts are laughable at best. Yes they are very young but I've come to the conclusion this is not a very good team. The home crowd deserves better than this crap.

They were watering the turf before the game. Why? Do they not realize it's fake? Idiots.

They water it to cool down the playing surface. It also makes the ball move faster.

AdamTheGreek · Post #260 » by **AdamTheGreek** » Mon Apr 27, 2015 2:31 am

Yeah, they always water it.

Seb Hines had a disastrous night and that's not even factoring in the 2 goals he coughed up to Jozy.

Again, Ceren and Avila shouldn't be out there.

We just play so tight at home because those players so badly want to score goals.

The friendly next week should do us some good and hopefully open up the net.
