They couldn't play one game on the west coast?? :mad:

Damn you east coast folk.

Gatorbasu · Jun 20, 2005

That's true... Never thought of that.. BTW, Chicago is not exactly EAST but I guess, that's the most WEST they travel...

Seamus · Jun 21, 2005

Again no west coast, so I won't be seeing Milan this year. :mad:

I was planning on going to see them in Chicago, but it got to expensice, so I'm going to see Cuba vs. Costa Rica & the US vs. Canada in the CONCACAF Gold Cup in Seattle.

If anyone knows what sections will be reserved for Milan fans at Gillette and Giants Stadium please email me. Thanks!

Seamus · Jun 24, 2005

I very much doubt there will be a Milan section. As far as I know whenever they come and play friendlies, they don't have specific sections for either team. If there is one there should be a section available on tickmaster listing Milan section.

The only time I ever remember them have specific section was when Milan play Juve in the Italian Super Cup at the Meadowlands. The North side was for Milan and the South for Juve if I remember correctly

RedSkinheadUltr · Jun 24, 2005

Just to update...

There will be Chelsea supporters sections for all 3 games. At Giants Stadium it's sec. 140 (and probably most of that end).

I haven't heard anything for Milan but I would imagine we'd be at the opposite end for each game.

Or at least we could congregate there...

As Seamus said Ticketmaster doesn't give you the option like they did for the Super Cup but I'm hoping on Monday when the tickets go on sale to the general public that'll change.

FORZA MAGICO MILAN!

No big deal. USA Tour means nothing, it's just a practice.

Of course not, practically we only have one forward for that tournament, one that you are especially fond of

Seamus · Jul 18, 2005

Shevchenko to miss US Tour

This is a good point, with Inzaghi and Sheva injured the only forward we would have is Bobo, unless we sign Gila. If we only have Bobo upfront we wont score any goals and will be humiliated by Chelsea.

Exactly. We need to gain fans out there thats what this tour is for anyways....If we get humiliated the americans will think that this team sux and wont bother following it. We need to make a good impression out there. But with Sheva out thats already a problem. :head:

Bambino D'oro · Jul 18, 2005

gila and bobo now....that'll be interesting

Do you know for sure that Gila is gonna play?

Beemer · Jul 19, 2005

Goalkeepers: Dimitrios Eleftheropoulos, Eros Favaretto, Valerio Fiori

That's a name I haven't seen before...who's Eros Favaretto and where did he come from?

Congo Powers · Jul 19, 2005

primavera?
---------------------------------------
Bobone--Gilardino will be extremely interesting to watch...the dominant striker in italian football for the last decade and the man elected to take over from him playing together. i can't wait

how did we get both of them?

Correction: Gilardino IS going to USA.

Gilardino, who has scored 23 goals in each of the last two Serie ‘A’ campaigns, is now expected to complete a medical at Milanello tomorrow before flying out with his new team-mates as they embark on their pre-season summer tour of the United States.
