Fullers role here in Charleston was to be Coach/Player last year. He played more minutes than he was expecting last year due to injuries and susupensions. I would imagine he played due to the fact that the roster was thin.
I wish the team had come out with some fire the first half, they didn't really show us much. The reserves played great the second half, but your keeper had some great saves. It was nice to see the young guys playing well. Nowak had a point with playing with 11, it happened in the DC/Fusion game the same night. i guess the coaches were fine with it, but the ref was against it. I was impressed with Jamie Watson (#77) he was rough and very "vocal" on the field, we had to keep reminding him that their were kids in the stadium. He must have taken notice of all the attention the away fans were giving him, he came over to us after the match by the team bus and thanked us for coming out, class act. Even said he wanted to get up to Philly for a match. All in all the fans from Philly had a good time, good luck in the upcoming season. Except on 5/22 of course.
I had a blast. I felt the atmosphere and level of play exceeded my expectations honestly. I was sitting in the top row corner of the supporter section and felt the music coming from the sidelines and the noise coming from the supporters section was great. I used two of my complimentary tickets and wouldn't be surprised if the next time our guests are in the area they'll want to come out to another game with us. All in all it was a great experience that will hopefully only get better as more people hear about the team and come out to the games.
haha, fair enough. (really not that bad for a first ever pre-season game, but we're still gonna trash talk cause wtf else are we going to do?)
Welp the Orlando spin doctor has spoken...again, so that does it for me. I don't need to see any more proof, I am now convinced that crowd was definitely 3500+. Hey, good job!
