The news Columbus Crew SC fans waited for almost a year were finally released on Friday, when a statement from Major League Soccer, Columbus Partnership and a potential new ownership group led by Jimmy Haslam strongly indicated the team is more likely to stay in Central Ohio than to relocate to Austin, as (former?) investor/operator Anthony Precourt so badly wished.
However, even though Crew SC fans and all involved with the Save The Crew movement should rightfully take some days to celebrate and rejoice it, it cannot stop here. Keeping the team in Columbus is just the first step, but one that could prove useless in the future if the same mistakes keep happening from all sides involved.
