[DYNAMO] Today is Dynamo Day in Houston - playoffs

Go Dynamo

Gonna check online for some tickets right now.

 

ill be there, just got hooked up

 

Brian Ching off a Brad Davis set piece. That's the Dynamo version of Bagwell driving in Biggio.

 

I was gonna invite you if we got this 5 pack I was looking at, but Dave2000 got a 4 pack of tickets instead.

 

would they play another home playoff game? when?

 

Nothing at all bittersweet about leaving that craphole. Thank G-d they're done with Robertson. A great home field advantage but an embarrassment of a field.

ON TO KC!O

 

I won't miss Robertson at all, except for how close you feel to the field from any seat in the stadium. But the field and facilities are an embarrassment, so the new stadium will be a godsend.

I like our chances against KC.

 

Twas a fun experience. I sat in the "red rowdy" version of the Rocket's section where people were cheering from start to finish. It was also my first soccer game. Glad we won and now on to the finals to hopefully win it all!

 

Just keep believing in Dynamo!

 

I was a little surprised it wasn't filled to capacity.

If this was on the weekend, i know it would be sold out. Mid week game, so that's probably why.

 

here's some photos from the game

I've only been to a total of 6 games, including the first one vs. Colorado in 2006, though I do live in Austin.

Not sure why that matters. The stadium has been a craphole for decades. That field was an embarrassment last night. Good thing no one got seriously injured. A playoff game on national tv and we have to watch them run over the Conference USA logo, while avoiding the mud that made up the outside 10-15 yards of the pitch.

Regardless...GREAT WIN last night. KC is going to be a tough place to play and match up well against the Dynamo. Weather won't be a factor.

 

Pretty exciting to have the Dynamo go this deep and counting...

 

I agree. I mean sure the pitch wasn't immaculate like those at other SSStadiums and the facilities also weren't great but goodness me, some teams in MLS have had it worse and some still do.

Do you think NE Revolution fans wouldn't trade Robertson in an instant for Gillette stadium? Yeah the facilities at Gillette are newer(Concessions, locker rooms, tunnel areas, etc) but then you know come Aug/Sept, those NE Patriots gridiron lines WILL be on the field and they're not going anywhere.

Pitch wise, I'd say the Robertson pitch is in the same shape as the FC Dallas pitch at Pizza Hut Park for most of the year. (There's a time in late Spring when the pitch at PHP is immaculate but that's it imo).

Facility wise, what you see and experience at Robertson is definitely not worse and is almost on par with what one gets at RFK stadium. That's not a good thing but it could be a heckuva lot worse.

It's been a good few years at Robertson and now time to move on and continue great things at the new stadium.

 

No, I noticed too, but it's already understood. It didn't look great, but I'm sure people are aware that it's a college football stadium and people know the dynamo are going to some new digs next season.
