Maybe, however Glass was appointed in March and the MLS season didn't start till April. He could easily have simply be referring to the previous season, or that Glass had his eye on him for Atlanta 2 Link to comment

Then they said it again after the US World Cup in 94. Then they said it again when Beckham went over 10 years ago. Blah blah blah. "They" can say whatever but the general public didn't care for "soccer" back then. MLB, NFL, and NBA are losing some pooularity to various reasons and "soccer" is picking up in youth participation. When little Larry and Lebron dream of playing soccer growing up I'd say watch out. Link to comment

Nothing to do with Aberdeen. Link to comment

The MLB is becoming a lot more latino. Parents from middle class and up dont want their kids participating in American football. So the future of the NFL is pulling in poor kids. That will be a higher percentage of minorities. With the NBA and basketball I can see parents pushing kids that aren't very tall into soccer vs. basketball. But Europe has proven white kids can hoop. Just from having offers to play any level of college ball I was better than most black kids on the planet. Routinely kicked their asses at the playground. But I'm sure the stereotype exists. White kids cant hoop is a stereotype that the larrys and lukas have long smashed. Just like the false narrative that young black boys need to be rappers or ballers. Plenty of black doctors, lawyers, business owners, etc. The United States is starting to favor soccer for the first time. The rest will work itself out. Link to comment

He's still only scored 1 goal from open play since returning from the Dubai trip in January 2020. 5 goals = 3 pens, 1 free kick and the great goal at home V Hibs. His 18 month spell prior to that looks like something he's not going to be repeating. Link to comment

St Johnstone away and Motherwell away both so composed and excellent technique. Complete and utter donkey prior and after. Signing players for 50k, getting an unreal 18 months then selling just before everyone realises they are shite should be our business model. 2 1 Link to comment
