    Nearly relegated last season, mid-table this season. Long history of being mediocre but not bad enough to get relegated. Saved last season basically by Brad Guzan and Christian Benteke. Rest of the squad was pretty crap.

    More or less on par with Stoke City from last season's Cup. Stoke is actually one spot in front of them in the table at the moment.

    I don't disagree. But Premier League "crap" and MLS "crap" are entirely different concepts. I wasn't very excited about seeing Bolton or Stoke when they came (aside from the Stuie/Cameron connections). But I think any objective viewer had to admit that pre-season, non-First XI Bolton/Stoke, playing on our field, and in our heat, were significantly better than our side. It's fun to have that yardstick each year to see how MLS really stacks up.

    Not that he has ties to Houston, but it sorta reminds me of Stuie's injury just after they announced Bolton's game here. One more of these and teams won't be eager to announce games against the Dynamo.

    Do we have tickets to this game as part of the season tickets??? What are the three games we're getting??? I'm assuming this and a US Open game but what else???

    This game is part of the Season Ticket package. The other two tickets can be used for any game: Open Cup, Playoffs, or regular season. There should have been a card in your season ticket box that explained this.

    They put secret instructions in mine on where to find the original STHs plaque that they put in at BBVA Compass Stadium

    My thoughts:

    35/65 we keep Lukaku (on a permanent) regardless of Champions League qualification
    60/40 we keep Deulofeu for another year on loan despite potential Barca transfer ban
    100/0 we get Barry to sign a two year deal with us on a free at reduced wages

    ...and...

    50/50 we sign Bony if Lukaku doesn't stay !!!
