Make it permanent?COSMOS revival
i have to say that i am actually somewhat into the Cosmos revival. it's got all the trappings a gloryhunter like me might find fun in terms of going to some MLS matches once they get it moving -- big city, bright lights, throwback sentimentality, plus the new umbro gear looks fresh. if i would support any team in the MLS just as a local distraction i could see it being them if they get this thing up and running, cuntona linkage really tbh doesn't put me off perhaps as it will most even...
unfortunately, i don't think they'll field a team for 2 more seasons so we'll have to keep shopping bridge. i hate that these players on the wedge they are on are nearly intractable. a problem of our own doing that we all foresaw, but i suppose it had to be done to get things moving really. i hope the likes of Bridge, Bellamy and Ade can be off this summer....they all need a chance to play some football.
cheers
