@LifeInVanCity @CTVVancouver It is for retards. None of Vancouver games are interesting or important ones.

‘The prices are crazy’: Fans disappointed over World Cup ticket costs in Vancouver ctvnews.ca/vancouver/arti…
English
Canada's #WorldCup path is pretty clear actually . If they win Group they would play July 2nd in Vancouver . If they finish 2nd in group they play june 28th in LA . If they finish 3rd would play in Boston

@thesoccerdon @MLS Savethecaps!! We have such a rich soccer history since 1974
English
The World Cup is coming to our cities this summer -- and MLS clubs across the U.S. and Canada are ready to celebrate with fans. From Soccer Celebrations and community events to match watch parties across North America, we’re excited to bring people together and showcase the energy, passion, and culture that make soccer so special. bit.ly/3RPkvD2

@Miaoftheshire @Prominent_Bryan Cheapest match will cost you probably 200-300 per ticket
English
Speak for yourself. I'm unreasonably excited to live in a city with WC games I can go to

From Expo 86 to the 2010 Olympics, I can’t remember an event coming to Vancouver more surrounded by negativity and indifference than the World Cup.
English
@funnierhandle @DonTaylor5 Why not you can get in the door for a single ticket probably 200 bucks. Same price for Canucks tickets...
English
@Candyappltrding @DonTaylor5 Actually the very issue is they very much can’t

@funnierhandle @DonTaylor5 What does it have to do with the world cup? People can attend to watch a game..
English
@DonTaylor5 It’s because society has been transformed into a playground for the wealthy and Vancouver is at the vanguard of it.
The overwhelming majority of locals can’t participate but they’re supposed to be excited to inconvenience their lives for the sake of the wealthiest only?

Every homeowner thought they were going to get rich AirBnb’ing their basement. Maybe not.

What World Cup bump? Vancouver hotel bookings down 20 per cent this year vancouversun.com/news/world-cup…

Like many of you, this is the first I've learned of InterMiami's/MLS's scheme of soliciting bids from other teams re: where, when, & if they play IM. This, plus the various odors that've been seeping out of the club esp this season make me miss investigative sports journalism.

@SportsGuyJeremy Actually it was easier to screenshot, this is about as much as I can do under 'fair-use':
English
Fascinating stuff out of Denver re: what it takes for an MLS side to host Messi and Inter Miami.
So when #AllForCITY fans see we aren’t playing a home match vs Miami, the fix appears to quite literally be in to what makes MLS the most money per away match.

The @WhitecapsFC are not only a beacon of community spirit, but have a substantial impact on our region's economy.
The city's business community launched an open letter declaring its support for keeping the Caps in Vancouver.

@KarmSumal @MikeMartignago I agree FN in BC has a lot of money.
English
There’s not many cities that have given Major League Soccer this much attention. They should figure this shit out and give Gustavson an expansion team
English
@MikeMartignago In most MLS markets the team is like the fifth or sixth sporting option behind collegiate sports..
English
@Mike_Leach1976 Look at it from this perspective imagine you are buying a house that needs extensive repairs either you can do it or you can get them to do it. The potential buyer is making them do it so they have assurances in place
English
The question remains, will this be enough to satisfy ownership and keep the team in Vancouver? The ball now moves to the Whitecaps court. #VWFC #SaveTheCaps
Mayor Ken Sim@KenSimCity
Today’s joint commitment from The City, Province, Federal Government, Musqueam, Squamish, and Tsleil-Waututh Nations and PavCo sends a clear message: we are aligned behind a shared vision for the future of soccer in this city. From improving the game day revenue model to exploring long-term stadium opportunities, partners are working together to build something that reflects the ambition of Vancouver and our region. The Whitecaps belong in Vancouver.
English
@S_Oliomono @KarmSumal I think so personally speaking from a business sense
English
@Candyappltrding @KarmSumal That’s what I’m hoping for. That discussions ate moving along that they would make an actual offer. Right now there’s nothing to indicate that an offer would be made. I’m feeling hopeful. But also cautious.
English
Behind the scenes the City has been doing everything in their power #SavetheCaps. The group I’ve been in touch with is still very much in play. And perhaps others have also come into play. Feeling hopeful.

@SmithWinstonIng @JayJanower @GlobalBC Look up MST development corporation. My guess either they will come in as a buyer or work with the buyer to build on their land and do a partnership. The FN as of late have been very proactive business sense
English
Expect official statement regarding Whitecaps situation moving forward shortly. @GlobalBC Sports has learned ALL parties are onboard to move the #SavetheCaps initiative forward. We’re talking PAVCO, all 3 levels of government and our First Nations.
English
@S_Oliomono @KarmSumal Why would that group come public? Would wait until they made a firm offer. I would say this is very positive step in right direction
English
@KarmSumal 1/2 This is good news, and a step in the right direction. But only a step. We need many more steps before we can celebrate. Feeling hopeful as well, but again, that group that you've been talking about still hasn't come into the public.
English
@garymasonglobe Didn't you say they were leaving??? Done deal right...
English
So a buyer has emerged Jay?

@JayJanower Thanks for reporting this Jay we need it!! Save the caps!!!!!
English
Can’t overstate how vitally important it was to have all the major stakeholders in one room together - now there is officially framework in place for potential new owners (2 local groups) to get serious and move the Whitecaps forward here in VANCOUVER.

@JayJanower @GlobalBC First Nations? 🤨
What will be their contribution, getting free tickets?
