message: I know it is stated in some places in the article, but we should have a section just for the Saputo Stadium, and previous stadiums. androo123(not signed in) aka 24.203.182.78 (talk) 18:55, 8 August 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Stadium 

message: Should there be a Montreal Impact 2008 season page similar to Toronto FC 2008?  It was quite a historic year in terms of number of matches played and advancing to the CCL quarter-finals.  --Coppercanuck (talk) 01:49, 13 December 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Season Page 

message: The team never rescinded its bid. That should be corrected in a proper way. MLS dropped Montreal, not the other way around.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.163.149.226 (talk) 03:04, 15 April 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  MLS 

message: Any word on if CONMEBOL will follow their own precedent and thus invite Montreal to the Copa Sudamericana 2009?  Though not officially announced, the practice has been to invite the highest placed non-mexican (Mexican teams have their own means of qualifying) CONCACAF team that does not get entry to the following seasons CONCACAF championship.  For 2009 that would be Montreal.  Gecko G (talk) 05:33, 20 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: well, there's the answer- CONCACAF Is pulling all it's teams out of the copa sudamericana.  (http://www.concacaf.com/view_article.aspx?id=4793) so no to Montreal.  Gecko G (talk) 09:53, 5 July 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Copa Sudamericana? 

message: In the last two home games (23/08/09 and 30/08/09), the impact have worn their blue kit at home, is this going to be happening for the rest of the season?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.157.237.156 (talk) 04:28, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Blue uniform at home 

message: Full story found on page B9 of The Montreal Gazette of Tuesday, January 26, 2010. Titled "Impact on MLS fast track" —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.203.182.78 (talk) 21:50, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Gazette reports on MLS again 

message: I think it should be important to have an entry for the UM02 since they have supported the Impact for 8 years now. What do you think?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.157.225.168 (talk) 03:49, 6 June 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Can their notability be established via third party sources?  If so, give it a shot. Dbrodbeck (talk) 20:58, 6 June 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: They need some third party sourcing in this very article. I'm not sure how the paragraph would be relevant otherwise. Who decided they were one of the most vocal support groups?--137.122.49.102 (talk) 18:19, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Indeed a cite is needed here as well.  Dbrodbeck (talk) 22:40, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: http://rhinoszone.com/forum/viewthread.php?thread_id=1794#post_32319 Longtime rivals acknowledging the support enough? I can't find the videoclip of the UM02 on CBC's "The National", or the gazette/league articles. I could find more fans of other teams in the league talking about Montreal, which I think matters more. Who knows north american support better, north american supporters or talking heads/clueless journalists?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.92.246.78 (talk) 09:16, 30 June 2010 (UTC)

replies: text: So I have to look for what, Encyclopedia Britannica noting the support of a soccer team? http://www.rds.ca/zv2/# put ambiance in the search, and on what is currently the 8th page, there's a RDS reporter talking about the group, and an interview with a player talking about the ambiance. On what is currently the 10th page is video from the Santos Laguna game. If anyone has a gazette membership, they can see the UM02 on the cover of the paper for the date of february 26th(27th?) of 2009. http://www.rds.ca/impact/chroniques/270053.html RDS article. If anyone cares to dig through the large FIFA/CONCACAF archives, there's photos of the group on the dates of Fev.26/27. http://video.msn.com/video.aspx?mkt=en-ca&tab=s36&vid=168d255d-f1d3-406b-9af8-b91555b533b9 that is the link to the video of the National, but it is currently down.
Enough third party sources?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.92.246.78 (talk) 19:59, 30 June 2010 (UTC)

text: A couple of pictures and one mention by a reporter is pretty thin as far as notability goes.  You might try working something up on your talk page or sandbox, then have some people take a look.  If the article was created right now with those sources it would probably go to AFD pretty quickly. Dbrodbeck (talk) 23:59, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Honestly, for the USSF D-2, that's extremely notable. Is there not a way we can use a sliding scale of notability? We have to recognise that a supporters group of the second division won't have weekly mentions in local news. But to say "a couple of pictures and one mention by a reporter" is putting it lightly. UM02 were mentioned on FIFA.com, CBC's the national, regularly feature on SRC/RDS as well as once being the cover photo of the Montreal Gazette. That's better than http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midnight_Riders_%28MLS_supporters_association%29 and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoops_Nation  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.92.246.78 (talk) 00:13, 6 July 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  The UM02 should have their own wiki entry 

message: Since the 2011 NASL season is over, I suggest the following page moves:
* This article should be at Montreal Impact (1992–2011).
* The article for the MLS team should be at Montreal Impact.
This would be consistent with the practice for current MLS teams that share their names with past lower-level teams:
* Portland Timbers is about the current MLS team. The article for the NASL Timbers is at Portland Timbers (1975–1982); that for the Western/APSL version at Portland Timbers (1985–1990); and the A-League/USL/D2 Pro incarnation at Portland Timbers (2001–2010).
* Seattle Sounders is a dab page, since the official name of the MLS team is Seattle Sounders FC. The NASL Sounders are at Seattle Sounders (1974–1983), and the USL Sounders at Seattle Sounders (1994–2008).
* Similarly, Vancouver Whitecaps is a dab page, since the official name of the MLS team is Vancouver Whitecaps FC. The NASL Whitecaps are at Vancouver Whitecaps (1974–1984), and the CSL/USL/D2 Pro version is at Vancouver Whitecaps (1986–2010).
I'll link to this post on the talk page for the MLS team article and at WikiProject Football, and await comments. — Dale Arnett (talk) 19:40, 20 November 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Don't think a separate article is required for either the Whitecaps or this team. Haven't seen anything at WP:FOOTY yet. Have you posted there? --Walter Görlitz (talk) 22:20, 21 November 2011 (UTC)
replies: text:  I planned to post to WP:FOOTY, but you can't directly add a proposed page move to the project's article alerts. You apparently have to put the move(s) up for a formal AfD. As for the Whitecaps, I'm not suggesting any page moves. The only moves I'm suggesting deal with the Impact. I used the Timbers/Sounders/Whitecaps examples to show how the proposed moves are consistent with articles dealing with MLS teams that share the name of past teams in the same market. — Dale Arnett (talk) 06:39, 22 November 2011 (UTC)

text: Just figured out how to do it. Posting to WP:RM. — Dale Arnett (talk) 23:12, 22 November 2011 (UTC)
