Hi there. Just returning to give you guys an update. Our target figure is $115,000 to get the Chris Turner statue created and installed. After four months of fund raising we have reached a little over 50% of our target in $60,000 - we will shortly be commissioning the statue, it will take over a year to make, we hope to unveil the statue in July 2017. If you feel you would like to make a donation, the links are above in my previous post. In the mean time we have found an interesting advert from way back that includes Chris Turner and many other Tea Men, I thought you would appreciate me sharing it with you. Best regards....

Blast from the past to see Milton Caraglio's name pop into the Inbox. He just moved from Dorados to Club Tijuana. #NERevs— Kyle McCarthy (@kylejmccarthy) June 16, 2016
AJ Soares moves to Denmark. http://americansoccernow.com/articles/hyndman-s-injury-zelalem-s-tour-amp-dwyer-s-decision A.J. Soares lands at AGF Aarhus Former New England Revolution central defender A.J. Soares left recently left Viking in Norway and today Danish Superliga club AGF Aarhus announced it had signed the Solana Beach, Calif., native. Soares, 27, was a regular for Viking but the Danish Superliga is a step up from Norway. It will be interesting to see if Soares receives immediate playing time at Aarhus—a club that has won its first two games of the season. “We have been looking for a tactically wise, prudent, and character-strong defender, and we have found that with AJ. .Soares,” said AGF Aarhus Sporting Director Jens Andersson. “He complements our other central defenders really well and fits well into our style of play. He comes with solid experience of Scandinavian football, and therefore we expect that he will relatively quickly fall into the squad and can compete for a starting place.”
Sad news. The former Viking player Anthony J. Soares, who went to the Danish AGF in the summer, has decided to retire at the age of 27 years. It is head injury he suffered as a Viking player who is the cause. In two consecutive games summer of 2015 received American a blow to the head that kept him away from football for several months afterwards. He came back on the court, but the problems have not subsided. http://www.aftenposten.no/100Sport/...deskade-stopper-Soares-karrieren-861740_1.snd (in Norwegian)

Arena appointed Matt Reis as the new USMNT Goalkeeping coach, and named Pat Noonan as one of his assistants coaches, per Bent Musket
Couldn't happen to a nicer guy than Matt Reis! I'm thrilled for him. (We all dream of a coaching staff of Matt Reis', Head Coach Matt Reis, Goalie Coach Matt Reis....)
