A bit of a relief to hear. Worlds better than the Oakland Coliseum solution. But, plans are just plans….

So what looks to be a really nice Soccer Specific stadium in West Michigan will be occupied by an MLS Next Pro team. IMO, this is really unfortunate for the soccer supporters of Grand Rapids. Stadium plan and tenant do not equate.

Nice audio story from @mlive.com The @detroitcityfc.bsky.social part starts at 6:50. Don’t worry, bad words are bleeped… Also, @corktownstadium.bsky.social capacity stated as “12 to 13,000”. 👀
The Galaxy are kicking off a 4-year refresh of Dignity Health Park. Nothing earth shattering, but some cool stuff.

The capacity of “12 to 13,000” statement syncs up with Alex’s passing comment at the last owners meeting regarding the challenge to fill a stadium “twice the size” of the current one.

Nothing solid. But there is a valuation coming with the share transfer early next year.
It's an odd one for sure. I assumed they would go MLS Next with the others back in 2022. But less than two years ago there was an ownership change and the club was vlaued at $40 million. 👀
A little re-fresh on a stadium tidbit from the summer. Stated capacity target is upper end of USL Championship stadiums, expandable to First Division minimum requirements (15,000). Here is a list of USL-C stadiums and their capacities (Only those purpose-built/renovated primarily for soccer.)
Eessential Detroit City FC holiday gifts and stocking stuffers! Do it now!
Looks like another soccer specific stadium is in the works for USL-C. We'll see if it pans out but if it does, it's a commitment I did not expect from a Division II club in the shadow of an MLS franchise.
852 days to go!
