The Dynamo have had an easier time winning titles then getting a stadium deal but it looks like that might just change in the next couple weeks.
City and team officials have both said that a private-public deal to build a stadium could be in place within weeks. Dynamo's owners Anschutz Entertainment Group (AEG) want to build a 22,000-seat, open-air stadium costing around $80 million.

A group that includes boxer Oscar de la Hoya wants to purchase the Houston Dynamo from current owner Anschutz Entertainment Group (AEG). It is not clear how far along talks are, but MLS is very interested in seeing the sale take place.

In 2000 Ipswich finally reached the EPL via the playoffs after several years heartbreak.
