Went to watch Revs play LA, Aug 2019. Coming from England and experiencing my first MSL game and stadium it was excellent. Even with just the lower tier used it still had a great atmosphere, different from games in the UK but just what I expected. And the icing on the cake, it had plenty of shops and restaurants on site so the misses could go shopping while I watched the game. Happy days, what more would a bloke want.

Gillette is a great venue for American football (and a remarkable improvement over the old stadium on the same site), but there are two big problems. First, is is simply too big for an MLS franchise. A decent Revs crowd of 20-25,000 is lost in a 70,000 seat venue.

Second, the location is lousy. It’s on a two lane road about 30 miles outside of Boston. If you’re spending a Sunday tailgating and watching the Patriots, it’s managable. If you want to catch a midweek Revolution match, it’s a big pain in the neck. Making things worse, the train which runs to the stadium for Patriots games, international friendlies, and some concerts doesn’t run for Revs games.

The Revs really need a smaller stadium accessible by the MBTA subway. Locating the stadium in Boston proper (or a close-in community like Somerville or Revere) would also make it easier for fans living in the northern suburbs and southern New Hampshire to get to matches.

this ballbark is poorly designed,theres a big hole in north side of field level seating bowl which allows wind gusts to interfere with passing game.
