It's a lost cause, they're not gonna be impressed. 

I am impressed, I just don't think it's that shocking. Like I said in a previous post Orlando have managed max attendances of 60k+ for the last two seasons. And I remember hearing a few years ago about how impressive Seattle's average attendance was (and still is). So while it is still impressive, it's not just come out of nowhere, MLS has been increasing attendances for awhile now.

The thing with Atlanta is that their NFL team struggle to get similar numbers. A problem I'm not aware of in Orlando.

 

Would be like a rugby team in Leicester getting more people in the king lower than Leicester city

Oh really? Never knew that (I know practically nothing about NFL ), but that's quite interesting. If they can keep good attendances in the forthcoming seasons maybe they'll need to be considered an MLS city rather than an NFL one

And those Atlanta bastards couldn't even fill a small NHL arena!

Isn't the Atlanta team the one that moved to Winnipeg? If so, good on Atlanta! The more teams that go to Canada the better #bringbackthenordiques

If someone could stab my eyes out, that'd be great.

Didn't your team just win 4-1? What's wrong with that?

Against a 5th tier side which got a red card in the 11th minute. Legitimately the worst match I've ever seen us play, and I've seen us lose 10-0.

Since 2014 12 AS Roma players have ruptured their ACL. Surely this is no longer a coincidence and just something wrong with how they're training or something?

OF COURSE the pre recorded draw of the League Cup saw the 4 "big teams" avoid each other.

Of course it did.

Who was it this time?

And what about Lazio? Do the have similarly poor injury stats? Could be the pitch they play on.

Karsdorp, rightback they signed from us this summer. First 80 minutes he was able to play this season due to a previous knee injury and now this. And I honestly have no idea about Lazio.

It's already looking like Middlesbrough will have to spend another year in the Championship

If that means one of the promotion spots (or all of them) go to teams like Sheffield Utd, Leeds and Cardiff then that's great!

Middlesbrough has been my favourite English team since I started watching football, but they've only been in the Premier League once. Don't care about Sheffield, Leeds or Cardiff.
