Looks like it's just a 6 month loan.

Wish we could have gotten CCV instead.

Well, that's international number 10, with Pirez being a possible 11th. We have 9 international spots, so 2 guys will be sent out on loan.

That's legit. As far as tButthole goes, that leaves only about 2,500 or so tickets for each game (notwithstanding game they open up upper level).

ETA: That is unless the planned soccer capacity has increased from the initial plan of just under 30K.

Eales said they'll probably be capping season tickets at 30,000.

Article I read I think said the season ticket cap was 30K but seating is capped at 40K.

Anyone going to have routine pre- or post-game plans? I figure once MBS is open, I'll likely pre-game at Der Biergarten then walk over.

For Bobby Dodd, I know Torched Hop is walkable from the North Avenue MARTA, but what else (besides guaranteed shitter trip Varsity) is around there? Must admit I don't hang out much around Tech.

Holy crap; that's great news. Not a AUFC supporter, but a supporter of soccer in south. This is awesome news

Ok, I've been following this thread for a while now, and I just have to chime in that this team is coming together pretty nicely. Guardado would be a killer signing so it's a shame that that deal couldn't come together. They need a solid defensive mid though. A splash DP like Giovinco was would be kind of cool, but Orlando (Kaka) proves that it's a strategy that needs the right supporting cast to succeed.

ETA: also rooting for soccer in the south

Cypress St. Pint and Plate wouldn't be too far of a walk (maybe little less than a mile?). A lot of stuff over in that direction obviously

I know Publik Draft House by the Fox which is OK but can get crowded AF. Yeah, otherwise you're going back further up into Midtown.

Excited either way. Will probably just end up on the Varsity's shitter because I'm lazy and love chili cheese dogs and onion rings.

Yeah it's not bad, I've walked from the Tech vicinity to Cypress before.

It's also one of my favorite bars and I pretty frequently see soccer fans there. Of course, it gets pretty crowded too.
