    It used to be easy to switch from MLS N&A to MLS to MLS Expansion quickly and easily by the links at the top of the pages.

    But now that MLS Expansion is listed under MLS Team Forums, we have to use our user cp (or forum jump) to go from MLS to MLS Expansion.

    Why tinker with something that worked nicely and make things less user-friendly???

    Yeah. What he said. Put it back the old way. Or I'll start 18 Freddie Adu threads an hour.

    funny thing is that all of them should be under "Major League Soccer"

    The problem is now that expansion has cities, they are teams and not just a generalized discussion, no?

    I see your point, but, to me, it makes more sense to just keep the setup up the way it was so that it's easy for members to browse through MLS related topics.

    Later on, though, when a team like Chivas USA is past the Letter of Agreement stage and is actually hiring coaches, scouting players, etc, then its forum should be moved from MLS Expansion & Stadium to its own spot in MLS Team Forums.

    Thanks for moving the Expansion forum back to its old spot.

    What vw said,

    Expansion and Stadiums should be its own discussion. Yes, Chivas USA and Cleveland have been awarded franchises to start in 2005, but "expansion" and "stadium" discussions will continue as it does look like the league may expand further in 2006.

    The Cleveland and Chivas USA specific stuff can go to new team forums.
