Makes me wonder if the East Mountain site, even if approved by city council, would have been vetoed by hostco.

Who would the cats blame then?

"Maybe the city will get desperate and do something like Bratina mentioned and buy up any unsold tickets to make it atleast a break even situation but i realy think Bob Young is finished if the doesnt get a new stadium in the location he wants."

I don't see how that will help, Bob Young has said they will never play in the West Harbour, and he will not negotiate any sort of terms for playing there and has shown on willingness to explore "alternative forms of revenue generation" at that location. I think the city buying all unsold tickets at the west harbour is a non-start for the ti-cats. Which is really pretty silly because if you think about it, their preference might be "not west harbour" but their reason for it is "we won't make enough money" You think they'd be willing to negotiate wasy to "make enough money" but yet...they've publicly said they won't.
