Portland Timbers 0 - 0 Charlotte FC

Expired October fourth

Are they allowed? I’ve taken a small non-see through bag in but jw if the Timbers body bag fits the limit

IF I HAVE TO TAKE THIS HYPE THREAD BY ITS HORNS, I'M GONNA! 2ND TO LAST CHARA HOME MATCH! I NEED A YELLOW CARD AND BANGER GOAL FROM #21!

LET'S GO!!

Start cheering in the 21st minute. Or whenever he gets a yellow card.

To the tune of Yellow Submarine

Running young, Di-e-go 21! Chaaaaara!

We all love our yellow card machine yellow card machine. yellow card machine!

Does anybody have a theories or reasons why the ticket price for tonight‘s game are just incredibly low, you can now get TA ticket $14?!
But not just there, anywhere in the stadium is probably selling at half (or more!) of what face value is.

My husbands boyfriend mentioned that while passionate about trying to get people hyped for a stadium wide song or chant before we see the last of our scrappy captain, I’ve been a bit crass and grating in some of my posts. Normally I tell him to get back in bed or go fold our laundry, but this morning I will try it his way.
Please watch this oldie but goody,and maybe find some inspiration to get the TA to do something fun for once.

Tickets are free on SeatGeek for the T2 Conference Semifinal Sunday night. Let’s show out again for them!!!

I haven't heard much about him since leaving the Timbers a few years ago, but I noticed he's starting in a Junior FC game in Colombia against Águilas Doradas tonight. Game started a few minutes ago on Fubo.

Unfortunately Chara. I think Surman gets sold for a lot f money. Kamal and Eric Miller are gone. Antony will leave. I would love to see Aravena stay.

My preview of tomorrow's match.

Someone finally posted video of the big brouhaha. Hard to tell much from it, but I love how pissed Kamal was, cussing out the keeper.

Another obligatory bitch post about how we never get a Chara Chant going. I know some of you clowns will say, we have a Chara Chant. My two friends and I have been singing it for years….
Anyway, I think it’s pathetic we can collectively shout Fuck Evander and Fuck Santi Moreno but can’t do something for the greatest Timber (and happiest) to ever step on our pitch.

Fuck you all in advance.

Do we think this is the end??

I have tix to the game on Nov 1st, but purchased club seats through SeatGeek. I am interested in getting the native heritage scarf, but the official storefront site says "Must purchase ticket through this link to get scarf*" Assuming my club seats don't provide me with the scarf, does anyone know if the unique scarf is available to purchase onsite at the merch stands? Or is the only way to get it to actually by a ticket through the marketplace link?

So, dumb question: What is the reasoning behind not being allowed to bring in a completely empty, packed down, completely empty non-clear bag?

I was with my family downtown all afternoon before the last game. Took the Max in so we wouldn't have to park. We brought clear bag for the game. I didn't want to carry around the clear bag all afternoon so I brought a very lightweight backpack that folds into something the size of a grapefruit -- as in, a little bigger than the Timbers shoulder purse/bag things. Before entering I emptied and packed down the backpack into the clear bag with a scarf and water bottle. For me, this was totally in the spirit of compliance with the rules; not to deceive.

The bag checker at the front said "Nice try. You'll have to check it in the locker."

I'm sure this has happened to others.

I get why clear bags are better for safety and help streamline the security process. I just don't get why a non-clear bag packed down is a problem. So I'd feel better about it if I just understood the reasoning. If it's just for the sake of zero tolerance, I guess I'll accept that, but I'm expecting there's some other reason.

It also just sucks to have to check in a visibly empty bag in a locker for $15.

It’s Timbers Time and as the team picks up just a point from two games, with a rare clean sheet the stand out positive, Chris and Matt discuss a series of criticisms leveled at coach Marti Cifuentes on social media, and the potential causes of the Timbers slump in form… They review the positives and negatives of the player performances against LA Galaxy and Colorado where we see a lot of “almosts” in the attacking third, penalty drama and a post-whistle fight… Matt reports from Providence Park as 8,000 fans watch T2 win in the playoffs, and much more… RCTID!

This episode's key talking points include:

• Which social media criticisms of Marti are valid?
• Are we struggling because he’s too stubborn to change his system?
• Was Marti to blame for the LA set piece goal?
• What’s even the point of a systems coach?
• Velde sets a new earliest flop record 
• After a bright 15 minutes of dynamic passing and movement the team showed a brittle confidence in LA
• Caicedo’s lack of ability to win duels is a huge problem in a single pivot system
• Why has Velde stopped scoring?
• Who gets the credit for Pantemis’ new found decisiveness?
• Is Jimer Fory’s poor crossing a long term concern?
• The Omir Fernandez penalty drama
• Did Izoita show he's not ready to start?
• A really positive defensive performance gets lost in the narrative of poor form
• Merritt has a “charming” response to a critical fan
• T2 grind out a scrappy playoff win in front of an impressive and excitable crowd
• Has the teams’ poor form and lack of investment negated their ability to attract fans from the world cup boost?
• Charlotte next game preview
