Soccer - Another season comes to an end without playoffs

Last Sunday saw the last time the 2007 Galaxy took the field in MLS action. The result was one all too familiar, the Galaxy on the wrong end of a 1-0 score. Thus for the second year in a row, the Galaxy will watch the MLS playoffs on television. Many questions linger about the team, with the prominent being the fate of Head Coach Frank Yallop. The team's two stars, David Beckham and Landon Donovan, have both expressed public support for Yallop. The question seems to be whether or not Yallop wants to return to the circus that is the Los Angeles Galaxy. It is at this point that I should mention that whenever a frustrating season comes to an end, the immediate urge to return is generally not there. A breather of around a month is usually enough for a coach to recharge his or her batteries. It would appear as if this is what Yallop needs. Hopefully, the suits at AEG realize this and Yallop is on the Galaxy sideline and practice pitch next season.
