Homeforthedynamo.com is a website started and maintained by loyal and dedicated fans of the two time MLS Cup champion Houston Dynamo soccer club.

Two years ago the city of Houston was fortunate enough to inherit this great team from San Jose. The same issue that forced the team to move from San Jose to Houston is rearing its ugly head again. That issue is a lack of support from local government for the construction of a Soccer Specific Stadium [SSS].

Going into their third season representing the fans of Houston and coming off a second consecutive league championship the team and the city of Houston entered into negotiations to get a stadium deal for our team — as of now the two sides are at odds over how much public funding will be used to finance this project. The debate has been carried into the public domain and caused much angst amongst the dedicated fans of this team. The issue has been discussed back and forth through the media and the voices of both the city and the team have been heard.

There is very little opportunity for the voice of the fan to be heard. Especially the ones who support the stadium issue.

Homeforthedynamo.com is that forum.

Several loyal and passionate fans of the team have gotten together to build this site in the hopes of doing more than just letting off steam or complaining. We are dedicated to supporting the fight for a stadium with our checkbooks. Money is the issue at hand and we have chosen to try and raise as much money as possible for this cause.

The purpose is to make it known to all who are involved that WE are going to act while THEY negotiate. No we dont think we will raise millions of dollars. That isn’t the point. DOING SOMETHING instead of just talking IS THE POINT. We will use the money we raise to get more and more publicity in hopes of showing more and more support–from bumper stickers to t-shirts, hopefully to the grand scope of billboards. If a stadium deal is announced, we will donate everything in the account to Dynamo Charities. We invite soccer fans everywhere to join us in this cause. A soccer stadium in downtown Houston is a must as we progress into this millennium.

The most popular sport on earth has found its wings in America and is taking off. As the years go by we look forward to hosting not only MLS games, and possibly an MLS Cup title game,but world class international matches as well. With a new and state of the art facility, these aspirations are not just dreams but CAN be a reality. So we invite everyone to investigate our site, study the issue and then make a contribution to the HomefortheDynamo Stadium Fund. Your help and support is needed and appreciated.

Thank You,
