Last week the Nordecke Board, along with the fanbase, welcomed the beginning of season ticket renewals for the 2025 season. While we cheer on our Crew to see out the rest of their title defense in 2024 – we are in the midst of preparations for next season.
The Board is preparing to open discussions with the Crew Front Office regarding the ticket allotment for Nordecke members. We anticipate those conversations to begin in the coming weeks, and are looking forward to a fruitful conversation with those in the Front Office. The Board looks forward to sharing developments with Nordecke Membership on that front when able.
We are also aware of recent comments made by a Crew executive in the media about the possibility of the Columbus Crew playing meaningful matches in Cleveland and of a clause in the 2025 Columbus Crew Season Ticket agreement allowing the team to play home matches at venues outside Columbus, specifically in Cleveland. Though we are grateful for the support of Nordecke Members and Crew fans from all around Ohio, we believe that the Crew is a civic asset to the city of Columbus, and we strongly oppose playing meaningful matches in Cleveland or elsewhere outside of the Columbus Metro Area.
