Today, Andrew Erickson of The Columbus Dispatch reported that in the Nov.15th meeting, Don Garber and Anthony Precourt suggested Alex Fischer, Andrew Ginther put together a bid for an MLS Expansion Team.
The two sides could not reach an understanding in that meeting. Precourt Sports Ventures claimed the Columbus Partnership’s plans were not serious enough.
TL;DR: in meeting two weeks ago, MLS and PSV rejected several buy-out options and stadium sites in meeting with Columbus Partnership, AND told the Partnership that Columbus can pay $ and get in line for an expansion team. Despicable.
