    No worries, I didn't take it that way. :50: I just looked up the standings to see specifically how badly they were doing and, to my surprise, they were in playoff position. Shows how much I know. :icon_mrgreen:

    A tricky player with the ability to score some truly stunning goals. It'll be a good move for him.

    Yes a decent player who should do well in the Dutch league. The transfer almost happened earlier in the last window and Pappa has made it clear for a while now he wanted to leave for a European team.

    The Del Piero situation seems to have cooled down somewhat. I was under the impression he was bound for either LA or New York.

    Montreal have confirmed he won't be joining Nesta at their club, haven't they?

    Ticket sales for the biggest rivalry in MLS (Seattle hosting Portland) have surpassed 66k, and they're thinking it'll sell out the last 2k or so tickets. Not bad.

    It really is stunning what Seattle have going on with their fan base. You have to give them great credit for what they have been able to do both for themselves and for the league.

    It is if you are aware of American geography, politics, and culture. With a country of 330 million people and countless square miles we're hardly going to have multiple clubs in a single city.

    But whatever.

    Word is that Lampard to LA Galaxy is "all but done". Just haggling over arrival time as Lamps wants to finish season with Chelsea #MLS

    actually if we ever end up getting promotion/relegation we could see our top division with at least 3 clubs in NY and maybe 3 in LA. I know NY could support clubs in Brooklyn and the Bronx. And LA already has two teams. A club based in East LA would get a lot of support.
