Would love to see the NASL put a team in New Haven, CT or anywhere
in southwestern CT.
Also was wondering if there was any financial compensation given to
the NASL when they loose a team to the MLS?
None. The NASL only started playing this year. No team would want
to join the NASL if they wanted compensation if the team went to
MLS, That sounds like a greedy USL Francisco Marcos move. There are
no current NASL teams ready for MLS anyway. Orlando might be the
only other market and they are USL-Pro.
Kartik sounds a little delusional and sad. Remember the shots this
guy use to take at MLS on MLStalk? Now look where he is working.
The bottom of the barrel. A mickey mouse league owned by some
Brazilians who are bleeding money on it………..Hey Kartik! You
can’t just name major markets that don’t have MLS and stupidly
think they want and will support minor league soccer. That is lame.
You need owners willing to buy teams in those markets. And the NASL
has no one interested because it is a money pit with no pro/rel to
MLS. Why would anyone buy a money losing D2 team with no path to
MLS? What about finding owners for Minnesota, Carolina, and
Atlanta???? Funny how we can’t find them! I thought soccer was
sooooo popular here……….. . The NASL is bleeding money and has
low attendance. I don’t give the NASL that long to live. Not with
the clowns behind it. It is a wreck. D2 and D3 soccer are a
disaster. Where is the USSF!!!!!!!
Where is the USSF!!???……..USSF is totally in bed with MLS.
Where else!?
