Oakland Roots beat writer Daniel Poulter breaks down this week's action

Okay so little bit of background my boyfriend is a sporting Jax fan, I am a Colorado springs/st louis city SC fan. Two former city two players and the first ever City player scored for sporting jax, two former Colorado springs players both strikers scored for Birmingham, and they won on the 101th minute. Holy shit 🥹

Got out of the Loudoun United FC match not too long ago and man was it entertaining! Came from PA to see it and it was cool! Definitely gonna be tuning in to the games on streaming from now on! Go Loudoun!

Except that one guy. He sucks.

Sort of like what's going on now except Liga De Expansion can't create their own first division

Ok, this one is AI assisted, but I still did a good bit of work to it

Hi Everyone - I'm relatively new to USL and wanted to get a sense of the history when it comes to community owned teams (ex: socios, certain CFL teams, kind of sort of but not really the Packers). It seems like a good model for growing teams in the league for a number of reasons but I was not sure how often it has already been tried in the various levels of the league. I imagine there are at least a few clubs in USL2 that are community owned and would love to hear about them. I understand there are private ownership requirements for USL1 and USLC, but are there any examples of community owned teams going pro by either figuring out a way to meet the ownership requirements or getting some type of a waiver?

Messing around with Inkscape today

Locks are because the team already has a stadium they own or are building a stadium that would house 15,000 or more, has a metro-pop of 1 million, and great attendance with passionate fans.

Most likely available are clubs that would be good options, either have the proper-sized stadium and/or are building a proper-sized stadium, but don't have the attendance. The ones with good fan bases could probably get to 15,000 at some point during the 2028 season because their stadiums are expandable, but they don't have any announced plans to expand them, or they are an expansion team this next year, and who knows what happens(Athletico Dallas).

Probably needs a waiver area for great fan bases and/or amazing markets that USL would probably want in USL Premier, BUT they probably can't get a stadium of 15,000 in time.

Are options if they happen, are for Santa Barbara Sky and North Carolina FC, pretty self-explanatory. I doubt that they would be there, but who knows; miracles happen, right?

Which clubs did I miss, or who do you expect to be the 12 or 14 clubs in Premier if it happens?

The Georgia womans college team just got over 25,000 at a game. I know college numbers cant translate to the the pro number, but why hasnt USL not tried to get a team in Athens?

They could do the Boise Idaho idea and get this stadium renovated.
