Feel free to share your thoughts and opinons on tonight's match in the comments section below.

  1. Not a bad display from Spurs, who were still resting their 10 World Cup Finals players.

    Especially considering that it’s still pre-season, while New York are well into their stride with half their season played already.

  2. The red bulls always look so lazy on the pitch….. Hall was awful on d and attacking….. Hall richards tandem does not work. Frustrating…

  3. This is a fun game!! Glad I watched. I think Sutton might want to consider retirement!! Terrible performance tonight. Wish I could be there but I live in western Iowa. This weekend I am making the 3 hour drive to watch ManU vs Kansas City and can’t wait!!

  4. They would have been better off with the “Boom Goes the Dynamite” kid doing the commentary. That was simply unlistenable (which is not a word, but I heard Sarah Palin say it I think)

  5. Caligiuri was a professional soccer player for many years, played overseas, played in 2 World Cups, and he never found out that it’s not “the Spurs” or “the Tottenham Hotspurs”?

  6. ” But are NYC fans going to continue to boo their own player for the rest of the season?”

    Yes they will lol. Watch a Yankees game. Note what happens when one of their own has a rough night 🙂

  7. Rest of us don’t live in the biggest city in the country and have Henry either. We’ll see how it goes in MLS action I guess.

  8. Bale=awesome. Lindpere=very good. Sutton…doesn’t have the confidence of his defense is a generous way to put it? And I thought Bouna was an adventure in anxiety….

  9. Tottenham has been taking it easy in this game. Obviously, no one wants to get hurt in a pre-season friendly. However, it was pretty lame the way Hutton allowed Lindpere to run around him and cross the ball to Henry for the first goal. Watch the replay — Hutton just gives up. What self-respecting defender does that? Spurs were lucky to score their goal off the Tchani/Sutton miscommunication. At least Gareth Bale is trying. He’s owned Dane Richards and totally embarrassed Jeremy Hall for Tottenham’s second goal.

  10. I dunno. Caliguri will always be a legend for his playing career, but he’s not very good as an announcer. No biggie–some people just don’t have the gift of gab.

  11. Even though I think it’s silly, I can understand the booing by NYC fans at this particular game — 1st appearance by TH and against non-MLS opposition. And I certainly expect opposing MLS fans to boo him all season and beyond. But are NYC fans going to continue to boo their own player for the rest of the season?

  12. Whats crazy is that really the only fans that can talk about attendance in this situation is the Sounders and Galaxy fans. The rest of you wouldnt hit 25,000 even if you sold out your stadium

  13. I’m just trying to delay the criticism by another year 😉

    But yeah, I think next year will tell us more. A continued increase (even a much more modest one) would be superb…

  14. Should I tip you extra for attempting to meet my standards of satisfication?

    Never would have pegged you as a lady of the night. Excuse me for being abrasive in the above posts. It’s not in my nature to be rude to women.

    Reply
  15. no can do.

    am preparing to leave work right now to make an attempt to at least make the last 15 minutes of the match in an effort to bump attendance a bit for your satisfaction.

  16. There are a lot of us Jackasses with Irish heritage in NYC and as good as TH looks, he better get used to the booing. JPA and TH are going to be a potent combo. It will be tough marking both of them consistently.

  17. Perhaps. I know 16,300 doesn’t sound great compared to capacity, but it’s a pretty healthy number, and I really don’t think anyone could reasonably expect an increase of more than 40% more than last year. I think the big question is how they’ll draw next year, especially if they have some success in the playoffs this year.

  18. Now I’m an old man? I guess you’ll continue throwing darts at the name-calling-wall to see what sticks, yea?

    By the way, site me a link to the dialogue you were attempting to recite from Anchorman…because you failed miserably at it/if not just made it up (either of which explains your lack of delivery at humor).

  19. Acoustics are pretty good, but sadly (and expectedly, I suppose) they reflect the sound in the upper deck much better than the lower bowl, so away fans sitting upstairs can sound disproportionately loud. ESC brings it regardless though.
