What's this all about NY Cosmos?

[Efcjake]

I didn't know Cosmos was still going.

They just went bankrupt I thought.

I have a new york cosmos t shirt.

It's on.











But I'll take it off later when I go to bed.

They could play at Goodison once the Docks is open

...some trip for away games.

 

[Frank Gallagher]

can we please just focus on the job at hand...

 

[LEONARD]

Do they play a derby against a local rival?

We buy them, and they will never win that fixture again.

Not in their league, but the U.S. Open Cup is regionalized early in the competition and they have played the two New York MLS teams a few times. In fact the meeting with NYCFC this year contributed to their problems. A bunch of plastic ultras on both sides showed up and caused trouble, leading to the university that leases their stadium to the Cosmos to withdraw the deal.

Do they play in the MLS?

 

[terry nodder]

Are they cos-moss or cos-moes ?

Thanks terry

A big name from back in the day, but no stadium, no money, no league as such to play in, just what we need just as we've got some cash.

Cantona sued 'em
Uni kicked 'em out of stadium

I'm not seeing much worth in it tbh

What did cantona sue them for ?

 

[Efcjake]

No, the NASL I believe which is the league below it. No promotion or relegation system so they can never really grow.

Fishes for the seagulls.

That league is in serious trouble and may not make it, which would make the United Soccer League the second tier by default. I think the teams like Ottawa and Tampa Bay that "self-relegated" from NASL did it for their own security and knowing that it may not be a relegation at all.

Ottawa self-relegated? I live here and that's news to me, however I just googled them and apparently they have Dalglish's son as manager.. I didn't even know there was a 3rd professional division for the US/Canada.

I have never been to watch them, but they seemed to have done alright two years ago with a load of Eastern European journeymen.
