BREAKING: #ATLUTD acquire @AntonWalkes on loan from @SpursOfficial
So really, I see no reason why Walkes won't be pushing for that Starting XI spot!!
On the bench for their first ever game tonight.
They are playing in Georgia Tech's football stadium until the new Stadium is ready(i'd assume sometime around the summer)
Grant Ward was also a successful loan to MLS. I think MLS loans are a pretty good way to kick start someones career and get them valuable experience.I hope this can be as successful a move as it was for Simon Dawkins at San Jose. Granted, that loan for Dawkins was when he was around 26 (?) and had obviously no future for us.
At fault for the likely winner for Red Bull. Lost Bradley Wright-Phillips as he scored to go up 2-1.
Edit: Ruled an own goal on Walkes. Own goal a minute after coming on. Spursy
Seems weird to be doing this while he's on loan in another country. Perhaps Atl wants him permanantly and Levy's just doing his former board member a favor?Had his contract terminated apparently

Should have been postponed Shirley.I went to the Atlanta game yesterday against MN United hoping to get a glimpse of Walkes in action, but he was an unused sub in their snowy 6-1 romp.
