    Darren Mattocks will not play because of that late yellow which led to his suspension.

    You guys will outnumber the home support in Chivas, so you will be heard more than on the Colorado game. I hope you're in the far side of the ground, shown by the cameras, so we see you.

    Unfortunately they'll be in Section 116 if I'm not mistaken is on the side of the camera. However they'll be front row again and shouldn't have an issue with the flags and banners.

    Move to where you want to sit. There are more empty seats than full ones at Chivas games.

    Really? Supposed to be 80 tomorrow.

    I'm in Redding now (N. Cal) and it's ungodly hot. I'll try to bring some of the heat down with me. :-)

    Maybe the change from the Denver heat was a little too abrupt. Seems a little better this morning

    "Late night and early morning low cloudiness ..." The summer mantra of every weather guesser in LA. But it almost always burns off, I'd all but guarantee it will be sunny and pleasant for the game. If you don't get the morning clouds, that's when it gets truly hot down there.

    Put it this way, the weather channel has "AM clouds, PM Sun" as the forecast for Carson every day for the next seven days.

    Even yesterday afyer we landed around 4 it was cold. And windy. I don't doubt the cloud burning off, but it's still chilly

    We were at training at HDCthis morning. Sun came out, like butter through a knife, about 20 deg or so. Very pleasant indeed. If it stays like this it will be perfect for the game. (Cmac and Dolan will be TV crew)

    LeToux for a suspended Mattocks the only change. Harvey left at left back and Rochat stays in the midfield rather than slotting Davidson back in. A bit of a surprise, that.

    Give Davidson more of a rest? Seems odd.

    Okay, what's the story? Are the new boots Harvey is wearing magic or did he sell his soul to the devil?

    For the folks at the game, could hear you a few times. Great job, keep it up. They showed you once and Mcewen talked you guys up too.

    Camilo for Hassli is the right move here, we've seen this Hassli movie before.

    Bonjour is not good in space, but good foul. Love that smart defending (alebit to correct your own mistake).

    Lucky Chiumiento did not get a second yellow there.

    Rennie once again not subbing enough. Long road trip and heat make rotating essential. Nanchoff for Chiumiento would be a good sub here.

    Camilo should have buried that.

    Game has certainly changed since Hassli went off.

    Koffie gave away the ball a lot early on, he is so inconsistent from minute to minute. He also had that stupid long chip attempt around 83' when attacking players were still up and it would have been far better to keep possession.

    Man, Chivas suck in every area, on and off the pitch. Angel is done, and they are just cheaping out all over the field with MLS journeymen and mediocre unattached foreign players. Their big push for the playoffs was to trade for Montreal's sixth-choice center back. The league needs to find a new owner and a new start for that franchise. Anyway, acceptable boring road point, but Rennie's got to start using more players rather than running everyone into the ground on these long trips.

    X Games aftermath. Happens almost every year. Bit surprised the broadcast teams mentioned the surface and didn't know why it was bad.

    Good getting a point from the second road match in 3 days. Not an easy feat. Thought we controlled sections of the game, even though we were hanging on at the end. Stunned Davide didn't put that one away.
