Philadelphia, PA - Sources with the supporters groups of NYCFC indicate that the Philadelphia Union have restricted their available seats for the upcoming playoff game even further as the Union offered one supporters group seat to NYCFC away fans.
“We know these dudes like to steal seats too, so were minimizing our sacrificing to one chair,” sated one anonymous Union employee. “It’s not rude, it’s a precaution.”
Publicly, Union officials feel they are justified as they stated, “It’s not about maximizing home field advantage, it’s about being fair to the millions of Union fans who want to see us in the playoffs, and them adding to the home feel to our players.”
However, the undue restrictions have NYCFC fans crying foul as they queued up in an online distribution system to see which lucky fan would be able to take in the upcoming playoff game.
“This is completely and utterly isnane and a total betrayal of supporters group culture and the very fabric of soccer in the entirety of the world…… but at least I don’t have to travel to Hartford again, so that’s a win,” stated one NYCFC fan.
The Nutmeg News will have more as the Philadelphia Union figure out during which designated 2 minute slot the NYCFC fan can perform chants.
