When i say the West Harbor is dead i mean its dead as far as the Ticats go and if they build 5000-7000 seat stadium there it will also be dead as a venue. They voted for West Harbor for a stadium for 15,000 seats not something less than half the size. I don't know about anyone else but even though i was in favor of West Harbor i wouldnt go for a stadium that size. Just say ok forget any new stadium and we can play the games at Mcmaster..it is a new stadium and already is that size. It would make absolutely no sense to build another that size when you arent even sure what the hell you would put in it. The ticats will never play there and the chance of getting a MLS team there is highly unlikely. Even if they got the 2nd tier nasl..15 games with the league attracting 4,000 people a game is also pointless. My main objection in all of this was more cost not location..if the west harbor would have costed 80-100 million more like the East Mountain i would be against it too. I could care less where they would have built it..just that it doesnt cost tens of millions of dollars more doing it. I would argue that point to anyone, whether it was the Ticats or anyone would pick something 80-100 million more for a football stadium.
