    The announcement by Tammy Murphy was a jpg image on twitter and on the Sky Blue Web Site. My computer does not display the image posted by @toad455 . So I posted a text version below.

    Howard Megdal has written a rebuttal on Forbes.com "The Nine Unanswered Questions For Sky Blue FC And Tammy Murphy"
    https://www.forbes.com/sites/howard...or-sky-blue-fc-and-tammy-murphy/#1e2ca02e4a0b


    Aside: I am on the Sky Blue email list because I bought a ticket package last year. I received a "Newsletter" yesterday. It did not contain the Tammy Murphy letter.

    Announcement of Behalf of Sky Blue Ownership

    It is T-minus 19 days until the start of Sky Blue preseason!

    On behalf of the Murphy and Temares families, I will be the owner representative of Sky Blue FC moving forward. The professional staff has oversight of day-to-day operations. Together, we are committed to improving the player experience and anticipate they will enjoy their upscale apartments and new furnishings. We have also increased the size of our staff by 40% to better support the organization and fans as we build towards the future. We’ve moved our administrative offices closer to players’ housing to provide the support our players deserve. These improvements are just a start.

    Another priority is ensuring that our playing and practice facilities provide a quality experience for both our players and our fans in the future.

    We recognize there have been challenges, but I am looking forward to working with our team to create a climate of success. We are excited about the new players who are now a part of the Sky Blue family, and we can’t wait to see them join our returning players. But above all, we appreciate the dedication and loyalty of our fans.

    Tammy Murphy, on behalf of Sky Blue Ownership

    Sounds like the talk from the ownership has actually been followed through in terms of housing, transportation, and facilities at the very least. I think there's the insinuation that those aren't the only improvements thus far, but those are the only three I can see explicitly mentioned. Still improvements to make, but at least things are looking up in New Jersery.

    Also, I missed it earlier, but apparently there are talks for double-headers with the Red Bulls.

    or they could just let the Red Bulls buy the team instead.

    Lloyd has announced her retirement. Her last USWNT games will be the fall series matches, and she'll finish out the season with Gotham.
