As last year’s academy graduates leave to pursue college, the beginning of the new school year provides and opportunity to meet new young players. Brendan Burke sets out evaluative criteria and introduces us to some of them.
Philadelphia’s playoff chances actually increase a bit, but nowhere near as far as they need to. Bethlehem shows its belly and joins the fray of teams fighting for playoff slots.
The Union are mired in a seasons-long stretch of frustrating impotence, and Chris and Jeremy are slowly coming to grips with it. It’s not pretty, and there might be some ugly-crying on this episode (metaphorical, of course).
The Union’s remaining schedule doesn’t look good. PSP’s Dan Walsh breaks it down game-by-game to lay out what their playoff chances really look like. Also, some chatter about some young Union players who need to get some minutes.
The Union have signed 126 players to first-team contracts in their history. Let’s remember some guys. Peter Andrews walks us through the good, the bad, the ugly, and the Mbolhi.

Will Maurice Edu ever return? If so, what is his role? The Union should disclose this to the supporters.
