Cooper vows area will have pro soccer in \'08

Quote:

"We're going to play pro soccer in St. Louis in 2008 no matter what,'' he said. "We're working hard to get a proper stadium and get the league to have a reasonable number for the expansion fee. At the same time, we're working with the USL (United Soccer Leagues) Division I and youth organizations and trying to put that together."

well he needs to decide...

Does he want a corporate money loser, or a business of grassroots soccer?

Hey, I think that it is smart move. If MLS doesn't work out then aim for the USLD1. The problem is that if MLS comes knocking in 2010 then the USL side is finished, no chance lance that they survive.

Get ready, soccer fans. Men’s pro soccer may return to St. Louis soon.

David Downs, the commissioner of the North American Soccer League, told soccermadeinstlouis.com this morning:

“The NASL is currently seeking a qualified owner to enter a team representing St. Louis into our league, and would hope to have an agreement in place in time for the 2014 season. We strongly believe that the size of the city, coupled with
its passion and history for the sport, makes it a perfect location for a successful NASL team.”

Lets just hope when St. Louis rejoins D2 soccer all their players bring their player passes to their first match.

St. Louis joins race for an MLS expansion club


Lodging Hospitality Management -- a company owned by St. Louis Rams, Colorado Rapids and Arsenal owner Stan Kroenke -- on Thursday closed a $20 million purchase of the historic St. Louis Union Station complex on the southwestern edge of downtown. The group has big plans for the complex and has hired ICON Venue Group to explore how and where to build a 20,000-seat soccer-specific venue a block from the St. Louis Blues’ Scottrade Center and about a mile west of the Cardinals’ Busch Stadium.
