Didn't see "PC" on the list that Burr posted here and now I know why. Orlando City announced he signed a four year deal with them today. Too bad, I thought he was a good player capable of filling a lot of roles.
Edwards Pleased with Progress in Securing Additional Investors for #Rowdies #MLS2StPete Bid https://t.co/HTUwUfnCsj pic.twitter.com/1Y7JF52mh0— The Unused ⭐ Substitutes ⚽ Show 💚💛 (@UnusedSubsPod) January 5, 2017
Welcome to the USL forum! Brett Lashbrook is a big hire, and shows you're serious about MLS. It's a far cry from the previous ownership, who were drinking the NASL "We Don't Need MLS" Flavor-Aid. Not sure I buy David Beckham being seriously interested, though. No offense, but it doesn't seem like the high-profile market he wants. That's why his name was connected to Vegas as an alternative to Miami.
Yeah I don't think he's interested either. It's more of a shot in the dark. Tampa/St. Pete isn't really conducive to his brand. Not glitzy enough by far. Looks like we may have traded left backs essentially... Can confirm former Orlando City left back Luke Boden is signing with Tampa Bay Rowdies. Some MLS interest, but stays close to home/family.— Paul Tenorio (@PaulTenorio) January 5, 2017
so Bill please tell us how you REALLY feel about the NASL: http://www.socceramerica.com/articl...mpa-bay-rowdies-owner-bill.html?edition=16651 What They're Saying: Tampa Bay Rowdies owner Bill Edwards January 6th, 2017 6:08AM
Official now: OFFICIAL: Luke Boden @Bodz1988 has signed with the Rowdies and is coming to the Sunshine City! Read more: https://t.co/bvjJ0oIDlD pic.twitter.com/iMxgLQVxJI— Tampa Bay Rowdies (@TampaBayRowdies) January 6, 2017
Boden made 33 appearances for City over two seasons. I can't remember seeing him in any of the (admittedly few) City matches that I watched. Maybe I just didn't notice him. Hopefully we'll see him in the upcoming matches, I would think Stuart will give him every opportunity to become the starter at left back.
If you like guys that do nothing with the ball other than pump it down field into the corners for your forwards to chase aimlessly then he's your guy.

BREAKING: The Rowdies have signed 🇯🇲 defender Damion Lowe @dlowe_31 ahead of our 2017 @USL season!Read more: https://t.co/i3iOqkahFu pic.twitter.com/CKvf3F5WSh— Tampa Bay Rowdies (@TampaBayRowdies) January 16, 2017 Looks to be a real solid add! Young and played a lot of minutes.
Glad to see another defender with quality added to the team. Now we need to see forwards. 2 preseason games and again no goals. I was out of pocket for the last game. How did Glenn look? No worries though...It's still early preseason so I know they will be adding and trying out more forwards.
Glenn was lacking service for the most part but seemed to make some good runs and almost got on the end of some long balls that would've led to breakaways. Curious to see him against easier competition as a result.
BREAKING: The Rowdies Suncoast Invitational is back with five @MLS teams coming to Al Lang! #MLS2StPeteRead more: https://t.co/sJb2ctDf2s pic.twitter.com/RFUuhHEiJi— Tampa Bay Rowdies (@TampaBayRowdies) January 17, 2017 Giving MLS another sneak peek at what having a team here would be like.
Its been a minute, but I hope the Rowdies get more draw for these matches than the Wolfsburg and Ath. Miniero games. They were weak attendances.
It looked like they moved a lot of people to the midfield seats as they were full but the grandstands weren't. Looked better on TV at least. Did they ever announce attendance numbers?
1500 for the Wolfsburg game (under 1000) 1500 for the Ath Miniero game (under 1000) Very low numbers for 2 good teams, even bringing there B teams.

Disappointing attendances for both matches. I attended tonight's Sao Paolo/River Plate match at Al Lang Stadium. Good atmosphere by the Argentinian and Brazilian fans. I'd guess that there were about 3K fans there.

Looks like a good signing. 5 goals in 15 games. Young with the highlight real showing him to be quick with a good shot in traffic. May come into his own and break out with the Rowdies. Keep em coming.
