2nd Leg of semi finals 8th or 11th

[Mavic]

MLS schedule shows the 11th ,and Sounders are posting the 8th. Just was wondering so can make plans.

it is definitely the 8th. The car show is going on the weekend of the 9-10-11.... Isn't it great that we take a back seat to a stupid car show???

Yeah, that is pretty bad.
Isn't the car show in the venue next door?

For the most part they are but they also use the concourse between the proshop and stands

Yet, there is a grass field sitting unused next door. Yes, it is the baseball field BUT 121, 122 or 123 are directly above the home clubhouse. At the same time, having to play on Thursday for our home leg means the scum have to play four matches in 12 days, I think.

So if you were the SSFC FO, is it better to force the opponent to play on short rest and play Thursday on turf because the car show OR play Sunday in the baseball field?

Fascinating thought experiment....

Think of it the flip side - if we had played and advanced on Wed/Thur, we'd have a game on Monday (today) or Tuesday, with the away leg the following weekend.
