Expansion Clubs That Never Played
It seems more than relevant that some clubs were announced as actual expansion franchises but never took the field. If anything, it is key to the story of the NASL (including the santioning from USSF), and the article and graphic are incomplete without them. Nonetheless, I agree that they should not be confused with the established former clubs, so I have added a new color pog to reflect that. The wiki pages for Virginia Cavalry FC, Oklahoma City FC (NASL) and San Diego 1904 FC all provide sufficient sources to justify their inclusion, while I believe a club like Hartford City FC, which aspired to join the NASL but was never announced, obviously does not. Can we get a consensus on this? SixFourThree (talk) 15:32, 5 March 2018 (UTC)SixFourThree


 * I support this, but moved Cal Utd to the abandoned section as there is no indication that they are planning to play in the NASL is 2019. BLAIXX 00:10, 6 March 2018 (UTC)


 * I appreciate that, but I'm going to move it back. We're currently having a lively debate over at the NASL page about how to list Cal Utd.  Agreed that there's no indication they will remain in the NASL, but that's not the same as them officially leaving.  Once we get a consensus on the main page, we can update this map to reflect that.

Founding Members/Expansion Clubs
Since there are no more "current" clubs, I think we need a third distinction between "former clubs" and "abandoned expansion clubs". I've broken the former clubs out into the founding members and expansion teams; I think this gives us a better sense of the growth of the league.
