Report: MLS players set to strike if CBA isn't reached
Soccer Betting Lines
03/11/2010 -
Washington, D.C. (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Major League Soccer players overwhelmingly
voted to strike if a new collective bargaining agreement isn't reached with
the league by the season opener on March 25, according to a report in The
Washington Post.
The report comes after league and union officials met on Tuesday and Wednesday
in the District of Columbia, with George H. Cohen, director of the Federal
Mediation and Conciliation Service, serving as an arbitrator. The two sides
agreed to meet further, but a new deal doesn't seem immanent.
The Post report stated that more than 350 players voted to strike with just
two opposed.
"We will not start the season without a new agreement," an anonymous veteran
player told the Washington Post. "To be quite blunt, it doesn't look good at
all."
The CBA expired on Jan. 31, with the league extending it twice after failing
to reach an agreement with the union. MLS has stated that it will not lock out
the players if a new CBA is not reached, but will instead continue under the
guidelines of the old CBA. The report in the Post suggests that is not
something the players are prepared to do.

Eastern Conference Playoff Betting Trends

By determining who the “public” is backing, you can get the most ideal line for your bet.
