Note to the Front Office:

Winning.

Winning fixes things.

Winning fixes a lot of things.

so any speculation on if/when Heath is gone, or who would you like to take his place ?

Dead Fingers · Jul 8, 2018

Luckily, I was up North yesterday and missed the game.

Bluecat82 · Jul 9, 2018

Didn't even watch.

1-8 on the road won't get the job done.

Lagos needs to go first. Get a GM who knows how to properly build a roster (for example, when you have one of the worst goal differentials in MLS, maybe signing yet another winger isn't such a great idea), and see what happens.

It has to be something systemic...both Saprissa goals coming from long balls over the top and up the middle.

Bluecat82 · Jul 12, 2018

If only we had a USL affiliate where guys like Owundi (who really had a hard time last night) could get regular game action...

When we win at home singing Wonderwall is amazing.

Was not at this game and will not be at the game against the Revolution. I had donated tickets to daughter's school auction.

But, did watch on TV, and was screaming when we conceded.

The first goal I didn't mind so much...it was a thing of beauty to watch...but the second?

How in the world do you let a guy who's FIVE-FOOT-FREAKING-TWO score on a header??????

I’d like to share my first interaction with my son after not seeing him for 3 weeks.
Me - “buuud! I missed you, welcome home”
Jett - “Dad! I saw you got chipped last game”
Me - “Love you to bud” 🤷🏽‍♂️

For his epic rant after loss to #MNUFC on Saturday, Real Salt Lake coach Mike Petke said he received a two-game suspension and $10,000 fine, per @ESPN700. He suggested the VAR official might have been watching “The Simpsons” instead of game, adding he didn’t care if a fine came.

For the games I have to watch on TV, that was a good one. Though being a physical and chippy affair, I thought NE were quite good. I would say we had a little luck, but also want to acknowledge that the Loons fought hard. Even when Toye came on with a couple minutes left. Good hard work.....they stayed focused for 90 minutes.

Great to see all the kids from the Schwan's Cup at the game as well.

EDIT:

If we had won our games against SJ, we would be in 4th place. *sigh

Oh.....what a wonderful day to bring the whole family.

Me thinks that the 3-5-2 is working pretty well.
