TOP STORY: Soccer America Daily
Players near-unanimous on strike action
by Ridge Mahoney on Friday, Mar 12, 2010 3:48 AM EST
Photo [MLS] Following three days of negotiations on a new collective bargaining agreement in New York, MLS President Mark Abbott termed the talks as "productive" but L.A. Galaxy player rep Chris Klein insisted that the two sides "remain very far apart on the major issues." When asked if by voting overwhelmingly to strike unless a new CBA is negotiated the players might have convinced the owners of their solidarity, he said, "Let's hope so." As MLS Commissioner Don Garber told Soccer America last weekend, talks are getting "super-close to the first game."
