Matchday Welcome: Hinchey stresses the critical importance of Rapids supporters

Rapids Fans,

This afternoon we welcome San Jose Earthquakes to Dick’s Sporting Goods Park (TICKETS). Two goals from Kevin Doyle were enough for a 2-1 victory at home the last time we met, and we would gladly take that today.

For a second successive home game we suffered something of a gut punch, with Vancouver taking all three points out of Dick’s Sporting Goods Park eight days ago. It is at testing times such as these that your support is even more critical and even more appreciated.

You, the fans, meanwhile stepped up another level for the Whitecaps game with the outpouring of support for our Homegrown player Kortne Ford and his mom, Laurie.
