There is a place where everybody knows the SOB name… and, amazingly, they still want to see us.
One Philadelphia fan’s 2012 followed the Union down the tubes. But much like his team, his own prospects are looking up. It wasn’t the metaphor he expected out of life.
I don’t want to be an Everton, Fulham, or Stoke City. I hope 6th place and finishing above NYRB never feels like it warrants a trophy.
The winter of our discontent is over. The sun is shining over Chester and it’s time to warm to the team again. It is time that all fans great and small fill the stadium again. It is time we made this a glorious summer.
The middle ground that exists between burning out and fading away…It exists. if only Freddy would take it.
If the team can’t outshine chicken, can they really expect to outshine the real competition?
One Union fan traces out his excited lead-up to opening day, laying out the good, the bad, and … the familiar.
Sure, the season ended on a low note (that was a quarter-step flat to boot), but would it have made sense any other way?
