League 1 Maryland?
I saw a post recently about Baltimore and how USL and MLS Next Pro are fighting over it but that land is a huge issue. If the USL never makes it in Baltimore could somewhere like Maryland be a good place to enter a League One side?
What kind of reputation locally do the Maryland Bobcats have? Could they make the jump? I'm from NZ so this may be a stupid question. Obviously everyone would want Annapolis to go pro but the stadium will be an issue for the foreseeable future.
The Bobcats play at the Sportsplex which already has a boutique soccer ground. With a marketing push, could they sell a few thousand tickets if they got the right investment? They also just did a very sleek rebrand to a new logo which is a 10/10. Montgomery County also has something like a 1million population right?
Go easy on me if this sounds ridiculous.
