Offseason schedule released, like anyone gives a poo poo, and the LAFC expansion draft is on 12/12. Teams protect 11 players with GA and HG players exempt. My hot take for DC United: Exempt: Julian Buescher Chris Durkin Ian Harkes Jalen Robinson Protect: Luciano Acosta Paul Arriola Steve Birnbaum Russell Canouse Nick DeLeon Taylor Kemp Chris Korb Patrick Mullins Chris Odoi-Atsem Kofi Opare Zoltán Stieber Available: Deshorn Brown Steve Clark Sean Franklin Jared Jeffrey Eric Klenofsky Patrick Nyarko Lloyd Sam Marcelo Sarvas Rob Vincent Travis Worra fake edit: lmao this roster is so bad.

Oh cool my birthday will be the expansion draft I can laugh at the lovely journeymen who will have to uproot their lives to get cut after a year paying LA rent.joshtothemaxx posted:Offseason schedule released, like anyone gives a poo poo, and the LAFC expansion draft is on 12/12. Teams protect 11 players with GA and HG players exempt. I think you have seeds of a decent roster there Acosta/Harkes/Cannouse/Steiber/Arriola gives you a decent midfield. You do need a non-trash forward and to replace pretty much your entire defense except Birnbaum if he isn't dead. Jack2142 fucked around with this message at 22:19 on Nov 14, 2017 |

Don't they already have a deal right across the river in Newport that they'll be paying 100% for on the off chance that Cincinnati proper doesn't let them build? I thought that was the situation.

I thought that was the situation. Newport or out in Oakley. Oakley has issues with parking, as it sounds like the county will contribute towards 1,000 parking slots, but that won't really get the job done.

So everyone thought Anthony Hudson, currently the New Zealand men's boss, would be taking over the Rapids. Then this happened. "New Zealand Football want to keep coach Anthony Hudson for another four years, and are confident they can make it work." "Martin said discussions around Hudson's future won't be rushed, but they will be concluded by next month." http://www.nzherald.co.nz/sport/news/article.cfm?c_id=4&objectid=11945101 It doesn't mean "no", but...still.

Porter...out? Credible people are reporting it but it'd seem weird if true: doesn't seem like he's really to blame for how the Timbers' season ended.

What more can you expect when you only have ONE person on marketing staff because you've fired everyone else Just a reminder that one of our promotions for this year was BRING YOUR DOG TO THE GAME NIGHT Also, the fact that we have the lowest paid shirt sponsor is loving hilarious because the club staff couldn't even get that deal done, Columbus Partnership did. What huge company is going to want to play a premium for a shirt sponsorship when they get a grand total of ONE game in national TV exposure? A game, might I add, scheduled opposite week one of the NFL and both the Bengals and Browns home openers? It's a loving miracle we are getting $1.8m a season. Finally, what huge company is going to want to make deals when our big shot owner can't be bothered to get off his rear end and show up to grease palms in order to get poo poo done? shoplifter fucked around with this message at 06:19 on Nov 17, 2017 |

In the USL era the Timbers would have regular "Bark in the Park" nights. It wouldn't be possible to do it for Timbers or Thorns games but there was one night you could bring your dog to a Timbers2 match this year. Attendance was way up that night.
