MLS 2, USL 2

6
Shockingly, the USL has just as many teams in the group stages of the CONCACAF Champions League as Major League Soccer. Montreal did their business with a 0-0 draw away after winning 1-0 in the home leg. Puerto Rico definitely took the hard road, but made it work. After last week's thrilling match in Costa Rica, they gave up an early goal at home. Click to continue reading...

On This Day:

Thirty-Three years ago today: August 23, 1975: Derby County 1 QPR 5.: One of QPR's greatest-ever away results: QPR travelled to then-League Champions Derby County and won 5-1 at the Baseball Ground. A Stan Bowles hatrick with additional goals from Dave Thomas and Dave Clement. Click to continue reading...

Head for the Rockies

0
The Wizards head west down I-70 to Denver to take on the Colorado Rapids tomorrow night. The Wizards come in after holding off Chivas USA 3-2 at home last Saturday, while Colorado comes in having lost 1-0 at home against Toronto FC. Colorado's fans' spirits are low with the way that the team has been planning and that Coach Clavijo is still in charge of the team after their poor performance of late. Click to continue reading...

Rapids Still Give It Up Too Easily

2
I don't want to make too much of a glorified friendly like the game the Rapids had against Everton last Sunday evening. Glorified scrimmage? Yes, that is what the "international exhibition" is in terms of the game. Everton was working to get match fit and look at some players. For example, Everton manager David Moyes was using highly touted 17-year old Jack Rodwell as a midfielder. Click to continue reading...

CONCACAF World Cup Qualifying - Second Round Preview (Part 2)

0
Part one can be found here. One small note, the second leg of Guatemala vs St. Lucia will be played in Los Angeles. That's St. Lucia's home game, so they've also decided to cash in ala Belize. Thanks to "lovingthegreen" on Bigsoccer for the info, as well as compiling the dates and times.

FC Dallas interviews SMU's Hyndman for coaching job

3
What would a FC Dallas search for a new coach be without Schellas Hyndman? Hyndman has coached SMU's men's soccer team since 1984 and is highly respected in the Dallas area as well as college soccer, thus the reason FCD always look his way when the top job is vacant.

He was previously linked to club after the Jeffries dismissal (2003) and the Clarke toss (2006), so is the third time the charm? Click to continue reading...

After 5-1 defeat to LA, FC Dallas fire Morrow

2
Less then 48-hours after one of the worst results in club history, FC Dallas have sacked head coach Steve Morrow. Morrow took over Dallas after the team fired Colin Clarke in 2006. His MLS record stands at 15-17-8.

Assistant coach Marco Feruzzi will take over till a perminant replacement is found. Click to continue reading...

KC - Rapids

3
The Rapids are coming off a big 4-0 win against a terrible Galaxy team. A couple things I haven't noticed mentioned on that are how many times last year the Rapids would've still found a way to struggle against such a team or at least mange to not put the ball in the back of the net. The other is that the Rapids weren't exactly at full strength either. Click to continue reading...

The Rapids Win Something

1
Amazing that a team that can show so little promise has a reserve team that shows so much. According to From College To Pros the Colorado Rapids reserve team has for a 2nd year in a row won the MLS reserve league. Last year they did it under Steve Trittsuch. This year they did it under John Murphy. It's too bad the team doesn't have some more players developed into pros to go along with these titles. Click to continue reading...

Clavijo Wanted Victorine

2
The word on the street is that the Rapids coach Fernando Clavijo wanted to trade for Kansas City's Sasha Victorine before the Sept 15th deadline. What and who was he offering? Two 2nd year players from the Rapids - Colin Clarke and Jacob Peterson. No word on if KC was willing to pull the trigger on this one or not. It's a moot point though. The way it was it was told, it was the Rapids FO that overruled Clavijo. Click to continue reading...
