On Saturday night after the Union game, the Casa Soccer League’s two best teams will play the Kelly Cup at PPL Park. For the area’s biggest amateur adult league and the memory of the murdered Shane Kelly, this is a good day. PSP’s Dan Walsh explains.
How will the Union, absent a permanent head coach, be in on the transfer window action? (Updated.) PSP’s Dan Walsh dives in.
Former Manchester United assistant Rene Meulensteen is a Union fan? Only because he’s a candidate to be the next Union manager. Also, Le Toux the forward, Mike Lahoud’s good form, and the Mac-Wenger link.
South Jersey native Mark Geiger’s MLS officiating has been notable enough (for the wrong reasons) to start the Geiger Counter as a regular measure of bad MLS refereeing. His stellar performance at the World Cup forces a reevaluation.
PSP hosts a little contest to give away tickets to Philadelphia Union’s U.S. Open Cup match Tuesday against the New York Cosmos.
Jim Curtin said all the right things at his first public appearance as Philadelphia Union’s head coach. More importantly, it was clear he meant them. PSP’s Dan Walsh weighs in.
Former Philadelphia Union manager Peter Nowak claims that MLS ordered the Union to fire him. UPDATED with response from MLS league office.
Were you at Saturday’s wild Union game? PSP’s Dan Walsh was in the stands at PPL Park, and he has some observations to share. (Hint: This is not analysis. Well, most of it isn’t.)
Forget the game itself. Think of what the soccer can do. In Bosnia and Herzegovina, it can do something far larger than sports itself. That’s why, if you’re going to root for any team in the World Cup other than the U.S., PSP’s Dan Walsh thinks it’s these guys.
Chivas USA makes everyone look good. Fortunately for Philadelphia Union, they were this week’s beneficiary, but they earned it.
