Is this the first time we have seen a year stated? I don't remember seeing 2019 stated anywhere before.
I always assumed Miami wanted 2018, based on LAFC. While also assuming it would never happen. But with new expansion coming in 2020, I wonder if the MLS deadline is 2019 or your offer "expires." *expires: may or may not hold up in court based on how far in advance MLS actually thought when they signed a contract with Savior Beckham circa 2006.

This...as I shared on Tuesday February 2017 http://www.elnuevoherald.com/deportes/futbol/article135269759.html I will try to find a English version and post it.
Did a Google translate- Nothing new in the article. Just an opinion piece about the current lack of movement and silence of MBU
Is this a real statement? The "team" is actually calling themselves Miami Beckham United! I assumed that was just a name those of us on BS gave the team as a joke.
That is not the name of the proposed team. Miami Beckham United is the name of the group trying to get the team.
Ok. Here is something more constructive... http://www.miamiherald.com/news/local/community/miami-dade/article138297438.html
http://m.espn.com/general/play?id=18899867 Check out this ESPN FC podcast interview with Don G. (Skip the first 10 or so minutes) It's the most candid I have heard him on Miami. He straight up says he is frustrated. And questions the stadium plan and ownership group.

Wha???? you mean this actually has a chance of being more than vaporware? Miami Beckham United finally getting their missing investor and now being flush with cash Miami Dade mayor saying "all we're waiting for is for the league to award the franchise--we can do our part in 30 days!" Wishful thinking? Show me shovels in the ground--until then it's just words....
