FCE allowed only two goals in their first three games, all of them on the road, but the offense failed to score in any of these games. During this road trip, Edmonton matched up with three of the top four teams from last year, Tampa Bay, Fort more...

The Dark Clouds

As I mentioned in my first article about the Minnesota Stars FC, my second article would be entirely devoted to those that support them: the Dark Clouds. Since 2003, the Dark Clouds have been the rabid supports of Minnesota soccer. One of the common trends within in American soccer is the rise of supporters groups to go along with the actual clubs. Just like the Union more...

Meet the Crocketteers: San Antonio’s Super Supporters

Join or Die? How about "Victory or Death"? That's the cry of the Crocketteers, the main supporter's group of the San Antonio Scorpions. They were founded in 2009 by Michael Macias, before a professional soccer team existed in San Antonio. In many ways, they're much like our Sons of Ben. They were founded in order to attract potential owners and teams to San Antonio by more...
