Josef Martinez news has Atlanta United fans swirling with speculation. Rightfully so, even if the logic does not add up, it's hard not to get emotional about the current state of the team, starters, coaching and front office. We talk about it all, including Dave bringing a great bottle of Alexander Valley Vineyards for losing a bet on the England vs Italy penalty shootout.

Dave joins the fire with his cousin Dave in Seattle. We talk about it all including wine country and a future trip to the west to enjoy some vino! Mike rants about his blackout games in Atlanta, Bally Sports and how difficult it is to watch games. We recap the loss to Chicago Fire 0-3 and the bad goals we allowed. Walkes continued to lack vision on seeing the danger, and did not have a great game.
Dave explains some of the Seattle Sounder traditions, marching to the match and their rivals Portland Timbers. Is Seattle set up to sell players like Atlanta United? Not really, and they don't often utilize all their DP spots, so the club strategy is very different than that of Atlanta United. We talk about it all!

Tuesday Dec 29, 2020
Tuesday Dec 29, 2020
A fresh start for Atlanta United, after a long 2020 and terrible season under FdB and Glass. Dave and Mike talk about what the future might hold in this episode. Hoping everyone has a Happy New Year and ATLUTD is headed in a new direction that reflects the first 2 years of the club.

Glass is nearly empty, and his coaching record show it, he is what he is, very below average and over his head in the head coach job.. Oh....And, did Frank de Boer actually quit for the Holland National team gig, because the timing now makes you wonder in hindsight? Moreno and Barco on the field together was less impressive than we would have liked against DC United. We are currently below the playoff line, and our plan seems to have no plan. Where is a new coach to lead us forward, and why does the front office think this soccer fanbase is so gullible? We talk about it all...

Atlanta United is currently "Unwatchable"! Pity Martinez is Gone and Barco is next! Who's Driving the Bus? The quality of soccer the last six games has truly been unwatchable on many levels. Luckly, we still love Atlanta United FC, and nobody is getting off the bus, even if Glass takes a quick joy ride. It's hard to compute in the year of Covid-19 what the hell is going on, and selling our big players for record breaking MLS transfer fees is exciting, yet sad, but it's no substitute for good old fashion winning. Barco stands alone as our energizer bunny, but we've got to get a coach who's packaged and aligned with our next DP signing.
