Favorite team (other than City): Galatasaray. Will always love Roberto Mancini.

I want Orlando to get a team, but don't want Florida to have 2 teams even more.

Getting word Schalke & USA MF Jermaine Jones has engaged US-based reps to explore possible #mls move this winter. #usmnt

Although I'm pretty sure Robb said he isn't interested not too long ago.

God I would take Jones' so hard

I'm watching a bit of the live stream of the Orlando vote. (http://www.wftv.com/videos/news/wftv-live-event-1/v7PNh/)

Sounds like there's a major crime problem in the area where the proposed stadium will be. Prostitutes, drug dealers, sex offenders everywhere, etc... This isn't encouraging.

And yes, I would love Jermaine Jones. Seems to be a perfect Vermes player.

I don't think the vote is going to pass.

sunny_cat · « **Reply #4759 on:** October 22, 2013, 06:28:28 PM »

Zusi's dad just spoke (in support obvi).

sunny_cat · « **Reply #4760 on:** October 22, 2013, 06:30:11 PM »

One more speaker... Then the vote.

EDIT: Will probs be awhile still actually.

scottwildcat · « **Reply #4761 on:** October 22, 2013, 07:05:17 PM »

update?

sunny_cat · « **Reply #4762 on:** October 22, 2013, 07:06:34 PM »

Vote passed originally. (Need 5/7)

But it didn't stand because they're going back and amending it. Will have to revote. Things are looking good.

sunny_cat · « **Reply #4763 on:** October 22, 2013, 07:21:19 PM »

Pretty sure it just passed!!! It's hard to see what's going on though sometimes.

It did!

congrats to Orlando. Will be excited to see the blueprints and renderings of the stadium. Love SSSs.

An architecture firm has released renderings of what Orlando's proposed Major League Soccer stadium could look like, but quickly removed them from its website after the drawings were disavowed by the soccer team.

so why does it seem like everybody is pretty pumped about Orlando getting a team? Orlando is an awful place imo

It is an awful place. But it's a great club with great fans.

Also it covers the SE which is a region that's needed a team for awhile. Atlanta will get a team soon.

SKC has/had a good relationship with the club, and they have great fans for a division 3 club.

any predictions on today's fixtures?

I'm going out on a limb and saying United don't take full points from today's fixture.

Relationship was tense during the whole Dom saga. Us taking him back for the USOC game. Then us letting him go for the USL Pro playoffs.
