Wrong thread. That's a LAFC owner.

No that's a Bond villain.

a lot of red bull fans are ticked. as they should be…I imagine a good amount of them might jump ship….could be new york city fc's chance to pick up some more fans.

And we managed to make it something to think hard about when it should have been something a no-brainer.
I read the comments on their site

One thing I've noted is that Ali Curtis has fully explained his decision (and claimed responsibility though some dispute it) which is more than that rubbish Reyna signed off on. Looking into this a little bit closer (at the replacement amongst other things) it might not be too disastrous for RB. Of course some of their fans would argue its the principle (not to mention the timing) but Marsch does not appear to be a complete puppet for Curtis having looked most closely at his past and credentials. Still note the growing rumors that Red Bull have lost interest which as a single corporate entity with one core product wouldn't surprise me at all.

Well I am 100% right, but you might be right.

I really enjoyed seeing Petke at the helm. The league will suffer because of Red Bull's terrible decision.

Throw the checkbook at Petke and hire him as an assistant coach for a season, then if he wants to be a HC he can move on.

Yeah, I really feel we had something great robbed from us by this move.

Yes Network should throw the checkbook at him and have him be the lead analyst for NYC FC games. Come on lets make this happen

Too bad we already have the best young coach in MLS. Otherwise it would have been hilarious seeing him come here and win a trophy. Maybe in a few years when Kreis goes abroad or takes the US job.
