    We never beat them. We tied 1-1 at home.

    Well then we have unfinished business. I'm actually thinking of going to the game in Panama for something fun. Anyone else want to go somewhere warm in February?

    There was no allocation spot used to sign that guy. He was out of contract and FCD simply signed him. It cost them nothing other than his salary which is likely lower that Seitz.

    Do you know anything about him? Hopefully he's an attacking type that can get assists at least occasionally.

    Hi guys from Bulgaria! :D
    Surely, Dallas signed a superb left-back in the face of Anton Nedyalkov. In our forum (CSKA Sofia fans) we still discuss, more than 24 hours, how we sold best bulgarian back... We think about that, if we played in european tournaments( we have 3-years-ban from UEFA) , we would sell him for more money than 1.25 euros. Anton will give to dallas 110% from his hearth, brilliant games hi made in the last 2 yeara from CSKA, maybe our best player! Good luck in MLS, guys!

    P.S. Can you edit the name of my club on your twitter? CSKA is the correct :D

    Good to hear. We will welcome him with open arms. He can't be any worse than Grana was...

    We have the english translation now over on the blog (Al Dia is a sister pub to DMN)...

    The takeaway here is the implication that assistant coaches were making and presenting lists to the manager, not because they actually do that all over, but because in this case they didn't think Clavijo was doing his job well.

    I assumed as much but it's more therapeutic to besmirch the business prowess of HSG.

    This is surprising news to anyone? Walker himself expressed his displeasure about being benched during the season, and then even was quoted expressing his feelings about how the attendance issues in Frisco impacts the team.

    We all bellyache about the attendance and our players deserve much more from the FO/Hunts in this regard but he can't be too shocked by his benching. His defending was awful after his injury at the hands our little brother down south.

    You completely missed the point - which was that it was published by an MLS journo. Just trying to bump our FCD threads, but you seem to be trying to put people off with your attitude. Chill man.

    I can't believe that I'm the first to point this out, seeing as I'm not going to be attending most games, but what the hell is with the 7 PM starts? I thought that FCD had the right idea with the midsummer games having 8 PM starts in recent years.

    It really is a stupid idea and guarantees that half of its fans will bake and be uncomfortable or just stay home. Its doesnt seem to be for TV slots bc they play teams from different time zones. Those 8pm slots really made a difference in the fan experience so its bone headed for sure. Moronic and I think the fans are due an explanation. They did it last year and attendance went down. So they do it again?
    Oh yeah and the Dynamo games start at 8pm.
    Makes me want to root for the Austin Crew.

    Yeah, as Grubert pointed out, they started that nonsense last season. No idea why besides feeling the need to make an "FCD decision" every so often.

    You can imagine the FCD braintrust:

    "People seem to like the 8 PM starts."

    "Change them to 7."

    It seems they have so much turnover in the FO every year that every decision has to be re-learned every couple of years.

    From Shaq Moore's thread: https://www.bigsoccer.com/threads/shaq-moore-¡love-shaq-baby-love-shaq-at-levante.2014720/page-31
    http://www.superdeporte.es/levante/2017/12/29/shaq-nuevo-estatus/358773.html

    So, how does ATL have a discovery claim on Shaq Moore? Did FCD execute their right of first refusal? Did FCD not have that right? Did FCD drop the ball? Is the article from Spain accurate?

    Not sure that reporting is accurate. FCD's Academy Dir, Luchi Gonzalez, spoke to our Dan Crooke and explained in great detail Shaq's situation. He claims Moore, if he were to come to MLS, would have to go thru the allocation process. "Discovery Claims" would not apply.
