No Context Pro Rel

The U.S. is too huge to NOT have #ProRelForUSA

Chesterfield is a town of 88k people celebrating wildly about getting promoted to the 4th tier of English soccer. If you want to grow soccer’s popularity in the United States we need to have the connection and opportunity that #ProRelForUSA would bring.

“Why can’t it ever be us?” The full segment where @RMcElhenney explains promotion and relegation as the story of tragedy and hope. “Hope can live here. Hope can breathe here.” -@rogbennett #ProRelForUSA

@RMcElhenney’s “aha” moment that led to buying @Wrexham_AFC with @VancityReynolds & Welcome to Wrexham was when he learned about promotion and relegation. #ProRelForUSA

MLS fans, which would be more entertaining for you? Your club is perpetually in the bottom third of MLS with no chance of relegation, or in the top third of the 2nd tier with a real chance for promotion? #ProRelForUSA?

Brazil’s 4th tier matters because if you win enough games you move up to the 3rd tier. @SantaCruzFC #ProRelForUSA xitter.gq/gbrl_alexandre_/status…

Tim Ream on #ProRelForUSA and @USL_HQ adopting it to @FOS. “I’m all for promotion and relegation. It puts a lot of pressure on relegation — and when you have pressure, you can see who can handle things and who can’t.” “To start it in the USL is a good jumping-off point."

Yes, @ReggieCannon15 clearly believes the Portuguese Primeira Liga is superior to MLS. But listen to his reasons why. ✅ life or death games w/relegation on the line ✅ intensity needed for player’s growth and development ✅ players have to give everything ❌ Nothing in MLS compares to the environment created by #ProRel ✅ #ProRelForUSA to take American soccer to the next level! @herculezg @SebiSalazarFUT

Wrexham will be playing in the English Football League this year for the first time since 2008. A throwback to the moment they clinched.

Bob Bradley spoke a few years ago on why he supports #ProRelForUSA. One key for him is, “Making everyone feel more a part of something.” To me that’s the best part of pro/rel. Everyone is a part of the same system fighting for the same ultimate prize.

Myth: The USA isn't too big for Promotion and Relegation. Russia, China and Brazil all have promotion and relegation. Australia should have it soon too. Even Canada is making regional strides towards promotion and relegation connected to professional levels. #ProRelForUSA

Former Director of the Mexican National Teams, Nestor de la Torre, believes eliminating Pro/Rel has harmed LigaMX and the National Team. "Disappearance of promotion and relegation caused a lack of interest and competitiveness at various levels." #ProRelForUSA

#USMNT’s Luca de la Torre. “The best thing about European football is promotion and relegation and that every game matters. It is life or death, a final and there is a lot of pressure. In MLS, being closed, that doesn’t happen." #ProRelForUSA

#ProRelForUSA in action in the @CosmoLeague! 14 teams earned promotion this season.

Wild! Almost 1,000 votes in and #ProRelForUSA is 3X more interesting than Messi coming to Inter Miami for potential MLS fans. 76% - 24%.

Which would pique your interest in MLS more? Messi to Inter Miami or #ProRelForUSA

More FC Nantes scenes in escaping relegation. Open and closed systems are not the same. Not even close. #ProRelForUSA

Le Harve AC fans raid the pitch seconds after it was announced their new owner would pay a $500M fee to be the next Ligue 1 expansion franchise. #ProRelForUSA
