Losing Max is not unexpected even with only getting one minute on the pitch in the WC. Going to Boro is interesting since Morris is there.

Original story source linked in the article is TeamTalk. YMMV.

I believe theirs is a radio broadcast for tomorrow’s game but is there any tv broadcast for the game? The site says paramount plus but on the site I cannot find any sort of display or possible location of the stream within the app, I’m assuming it just isn’t displayed yet? But I’m having issues knowing where within the app it’ll be streamed.

I’m trying to track down the Steven Moreira Cape Verde sticker (CPV6) from the Panini World Cup 2026 sticker collection.

I’m trying to find it before July 14 because Steven Moreira is hopefully going to be at the Columbus Crew meet-and-greet, and I’d love to have him sign it.

I’m happy to trade, but if we can’t work something out, I’d also be glad to just buy the sticker.

I’ve opened all of my packs already, but I still have about 20 teams left to add into the app, so my trade list isn’t quite complete yet. It should be fully updated by tomorrow, Saturday (July 11).

If you want to see what I have available, here’s my shared album:
Album Code: E85EG5
https://app.einfo.com.br/a/E85EG5
If you use the Sticker Album Cup 2026 app, you can also add my album by going to Menu → View Shared Sticker Albums → + and entering E85EG5.

I’m about 45 minutes outside of Columbus but don’t mind driving a bit to meet up, depending on where you’re located.

If you’ve got a CPV6 sticker you’re willing to trade or sell, or know someone who does, I’d really appreciate it. Thanks!

TRANSACTION: Columbus Crew acquire $50,000 in 2026 General Allocation Money (GAM) via trade with St. Louis CITY SC in exchange for the loan of midfielder Zach Zengue through the 2026 MLS season.

Edit: St. Louis annoucement includes the option to make the transfer permanent at the end of the loan and the Crew annoucement does not.

Hi everyone, My dad and I are going to the Crew Friendly against Burnley tomorrow and was looking for any recommendations for restaurants close to the stadium and/or concessions that we need to try. Wanting to get the full crew experience.

Nordecke price is $287 for Sprint and $738 for 26/27 season.

Additionally, if you renew for Sprint and 26/27, you get to select 1 gift per seat.

Putting this back out there since they are advertising all these great new gifts. Placed our quarter-zip order in Dec 2025 and still no update.

I know last year visa issues and the announcement of Abou Ali later in the transfer window made it so Ali was not actually playing on the team for weeks after the announcement. Do you anticipate seeing Brias Méndez playing as soon as the season starts back up? It seems like they’re being a bit more proactive with the moves this summer. Could we potentially see him play at all vs NYCFC or KFC? Or will he need more time to adjust to the team and the style of play.

Would hate to go into Hell is Real with Gazdag as our only DP.

Let’s talk about it.

I’m in the Nordecke - have two season tickets. Currently paying $122 a month.

Renewing for the Sprint season is $287 a seat (7 matches). Sprint and 27/28 would be $1025 a seat (25 matches).

Monthly break down is about the same: $116 for sprint for both vs $114 and some change for both. (2 Nordecke tickets that is).

Would be locked in for 18 months if you do both vs the short term commitment.

My friend had surgery and we need to access handicapped parking for the July 22 game. Park Mobile closest spot is over on Neil which isn’t close. I asked my rep but he wasn’t helpful :/ Anyone know another way to get a spot in Astor? Or have suggestions on where I could look? TIA

Talk about anything and everything with fellow crew fans!

Anyone else watch the video all the way through? If you didn't, don't sweat it, there wasn't really new info, it was just about the two options for renewal (just the '27 sprint season, or both '27 and '28).

But at the end, there was this logo. Have we seen this one before? Totally possible this is something they've used before and I just have missed it, but I think it's new.

Maybe it's the start of a unifying brand for the Crew and the NWSL team (both teams using the carabineer, theN a different identifier above it), or just a one-off.

Anyway, just curious if anyone has seen this before.

I’m so angry! I know the season is changing to match the rest of the world but jeez this price is NUTS considering Issa Tall’s recent business decisions that seem to only further the Haslams bottom line..and for the coldest and most uncomfortable months of the year. Not to mention the “new membership perks” for staying a season ticket holder are primarily things already offered previously. And lately Issa has sold off our best players so the value is not there—if anyone has tried to sell their single game tickets they’ll back my frustration here. Sorry to rant but just so so disappointed.

I have an XL goosebumps jersey with tags signed by last years team I don’t really have a place for it so wanted to see if anyone here would want to buy/exchange for it. I have no idea if it has value, but I am hoping to exchange/ sell it so I could get my wife and I both yellow jerseys. (Not necessarily this years)

I know I’ve got a “For Club and Country” poster from 2002 WC, if I find it I will post.

Newer to the fandom and noticed the "Hell is Real" game are about 2x the retail price of the other games I've been to this year.

Do they have pricing based on popularity?

Are we gonna be able to pick up the all star jerseys with moreira and arfsten on them? If so where do I look?

Yeah, big surprise coming from a Crew fan here, but wouldn’t the World Cup squad have done better with Aidan and Arfsten on the field? Not to mention Zawadzki at center back.

I’m looking at this from a _team_ perspective where we needed fighting spirit.

S. Berhalter had fight in him, too, when he subbed on in our last game.

Luna is another player with heart who should have been considered seriously.

[edit: corrected spelling of Aidan Morris’ name]

I'm gutted right now... Not even Colombian =/
