CDNFootballer Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Los Angeles NASL Expansion could be announced next week, Wynalda involved http://www.twiceacosmo.com/2014/12/8/7355527/nasl-los-angeles-expansion-announced-next-week-eric-wynalda-involved Will be great to have another big market like Los Angelas in the NASL, rumours are they will use the Aztecs name. If so, the "Cosmos of the west" better have a rich ownership group as they will need to do things in a first class way like the Cosmos since they will be in a market with a MLS team.

Fussball_eh Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Well apparently Kim Kardashian is part owner of the team now. Would you consider this to be classy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sport Shaman Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Classy or not, when FC Edmonton plays against them I am confident we'll kick their booty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

masster Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Looks like a bit of a step back regarding NASL expansion into LA: Jeff Carlisle @JeffreyCarlisle · 6h6 hours ago I'm hearing that the proposed deal to bring an #nasl team to LA is in danger of falling apart. At minimum, it will be pushed out to 2016. But San Francisco seems to be the new favorite potential expansion city on the west coast: http://www.bizjournals.com/sanfrancisco/blog/2015/03/nasl-north-american-soccer-league-mls-earthquakes.html?ana=twt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDNFootballer Posted March 20, 2015 Author Share Posted March 20, 2015 That tweet about Los Angelas is old news - although no official announcement was ever made the rumour was they would start for fall 2015 season but when the schedule was released last January it had no LA team for fall so then rumours were time was too tight for a 2015 fall start so it was pushed to 2016.

BringBackTheBlizzard Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 But San Francisco seems to be the new favorite potential expansion city on the west coast: http://www.bizjournals.com/sanfrancisco/blog/2015/03/nasl-north-american-soccer-league-mls-earthquakes.html?ana=twt They have to talk up the prospects of west coast expansion, because part of the USSF's D2 sanctioning is a requirement that by year six (which will be the 2016 season) they will need to have franchises in three different timezones in the lower 48 US states to be able to retain sanctioning without getting a waiver from the USSF. Right now they only have teams in the central and eastern timezones. http://www.insidemnsoccer.com/2010/08/12/ussf-d-2-professional-league-standards/ II.
