He's still at the Red Bulls I believe.
That's an interesting statement for someones very first post. I remember when people on the board hear thought Brian Edwards was a good choice for us too. I can't imagine that Bono is the best available keeper on our entire globe.
How's everyone feeling about losing Irwin.
Is Bono ready?
Any rumours of picking up another keeper?
Like has been stated previously, serviceable keepers are everywhere. Some of the piles of shit we've had in the past would have looked much better had we had the same defensive group that we have now. Bono looked just fine when he was in for Irwin, so if it comes down to it next year with Bono as our starter, I'm fine with that. If Irwin gets traded back, I'm fine with that too. I don't think there's much to choose from, other than experience, between the two.
Take my upvote.
Even if Bono is ready we would need to go out an get an mls experienced keeper, best case scenerio Irwin is back via trade and he and Bono fight it out for No 1 status

Cash and Bloom for Irwin.
Fingers crossed! Would be a great deal for both sides!
That works
I'm okay with this news.
Pretty smart of Atlanta, rather than just picking Bloom, they pick the more valuable asset to be able to get Bloom plus allocation money. Not a heavy loss from our perspective and I wish Bloom well.
I think we really need Irwin back. Bono did fine in those relatively meaningless games in the summer when teams in a league where 12 out of 20 make the playoffs play half-assed. But I don't think he's ready for the level of intensity of October/November/December.
Welcome back Irwin!
What's his wife and Orlando/Miami going to think about that? I thought we were holding Bloom specifically to ship to Florida?
If that was the case he would have found himself with Orlando last season.
Remember The Man, The Legend, The Goal 5-12-07 and All That #9 Left On The Pitch, Thanks For The Memories !!!
They're playing the bureaucratic game too damn well!
Yes - I remember many an armchair reporter talking about how we earmarked Bloom to Florida.
Better be careful not to develop a reputation. Connor Casey anyone?
Awesome trade, I'm really happy with that. It's like Bez paid Atlanta to make sure we don't lose anybody particularly important.
Well let's keep this in the forefront when we go to make any changes this year because of money/cap issues.
FORMER FULL TIME KOOL-AID DRINKER
Are there any right-backs that we can get in the re-entry draft?
All your goalie are belong to us.
Apparently TFC got allocation cash from the league because we lost a player to the expansion draft. We'll never know how much we sent back to Atlanta, compared to what we got from the league.
Kevin Alston, Chris Klute, Chad Barson, Chance Myers.
Chance Myers is an aggressive kid.He isnt as strong on defense but would be a solid wingback............I want to lose Beit
