    Are they not paying or don't have any money to spend? They didn't put up the down size traps and the LED board were off last night.

    Something has to happen with this team. Either they have to be moved/relocated or just flat out FOLD them.

    I hope they seriously didn't think Bocanegra was going to draw a significant difference.

    If CD Guadalajara sent de Nigris to CUSA I could see a slight attendance bump happening. Marco Fabian and Miguel Ponce (USA citizen as well) would also be smart summer loans I would think, but what do I know.

    Perhaps CD Chivas USA finally got tired of constantly having to release those who got caught in those down size traps. ;)

    The tarp situation, both supporter groups are on the south side. One on the South East corner flag and the other behind the goal. The one in corner flag was approached and given the option to move behind the goal where they usually put the tarps. Didn't happen on the spot but it might be a possibility in the future.

    As far as the LED board, it was on all game. Don't know what you're talking about. About the money to spend situation, owner has money but is spending nothing. I guess the owner is starting to give a crap though. Acquiring Bocanegra and Torres (as well as sending us one of our youth academy products back after kidnapping him and becoming captain of the u20 guad team) is showing that maybe there's a glimmer of hope that he could possibly start giving a crap. That answers all your questions. Can we close this and move on now?

    On the highlights they are not on, they have stand a loan boards in front of the LED boards.

    Oh, that's what you meant. I'm assuming they don't have enough sponsors for the LED boards to be scrolling through them and such? Who cares, they're ads, ignore them.

    Just saying, it's not putting up the tarps, not using the LED boards when they are already on the field (just have to plug them in). What's next having everybody (not that there are them many anyways) seat on one of the stadium. Trust me I know about a owner that doesn't want to spend money on his team, we have one of those.

    Believe it or not, LED boards cost money in the electric bill. Reminds me of this bar i used to go to. They would close early despite there being 10 people. I'd ask the owner why and he said its cheaper that they close than stay open because of the electric bill. Thinking that is the same case here.
