Just wanted to know, what do YOU guys do?

With all the money and energy vested in promoting the Metrofarts,
The Red and Black striped drums, etc. now this...

What are the new colors? Is is true they are going with Purple and Green?

Is this a Charlie Brown Football Flop of somekind?

Man, this is awful. Where is Napoloen Dynamite when you need him..

The Colors really have not changed just re paint the black stuff white since there are rumors that the teams colors are red and white.

I'm still going to be a part of ESC. Most likely I will have my Metro gear on.

In 101 with Metro gear... no question about that.

ESC predated Metrostars & has now survived them!
There's enough empty sections in GS for new supporters groups to populate. The bigger questions may be "What does MetroNation call itself now?" and "What do the Red & Black Brigade call themselves now?"

Speaking as one of the founders of the ESC, the supporter's club will go on. The ESC exists to support football clubs. The ESC founders will support another club in the NYC area, provided they are in the business of playing football first. Most of the ESC founders are not interested in being a corporate shill for anyone, unless they buy us lots of high-quality beer for every match.

With Red Bull in control of the MLS franchise (changing names and colors), it's very hard to see the MLS franchise as anything else but an marketing arm of Red Bull GmbH. The problem here is the football doesn't come first, Red Bull the company does. And they don't make beer.

I'm sure that we will eventually sit at a pub and sort out the options open to us. And probably wait until the next club arrives...
