Financial Difficulties Despite having the third-highest attendance in the A-League during its two years of play, the team faltered financially. Much strain has been put on its budget as a result of using Alliance Bank Stadium, which is run by the Syracuse Sky Chiefs. The team did not have a good relationship with the Sky Chiefs. During their first season, the team was forced to play several home games at a high school football field in Liverpool, NY. During its seond season, the team's playoff home games were in Cortland, NY for similar reasons. Categories: Stub | Minor league baseball teams | Syracuse, New York sports ...
