    Ours was pretty great no? I’d say it was probably the best week for soccer in St. Louis in at least a decade, probably longer. Since the heyday of the Steamers and Ambush. The first 2 Saint Louis games and a US national team game in our own back yard. Not too shabby I’d say.…

    “The support shown by St. Louligans on Saturday was outstanding once again.  Some people might be surprised by such a strong supporter presence at a preseason friendly, but that’s what we’ve come to expect from the Louligans.” ~ Tom Rodgers, Communications, Saint Louis FC Seriously, how great was Saturday? The result wasn’t obviously, but everything else…

From the Sacramento hashtag of #BuiltForMLS which I find insulting to the league they are in, to Louisville Coopers describing MLS as the nirvana of American soccer, can we just take a…

    I think we can all agree that local is best. Be it small scale shopping as opposed to Walmart or a small independent local brewery instead of Inbev. We all know what the right thing to do. After the explosion of the “greed is good” in the 80’s to the global marketplace of the 90’s,…

    The reactions to be fair were pretty scathing. However quite frankly in my opinion, and granted it is just my opinion, very unfair. The kit was one of the major announcements that the Louligans were looking forward to and it didn’t disappoint. It was a grand affair, gentlemen in suits and ties, the who’s who…

    It’s go time. We’ve waited a long time. I’ve waited 9 months since it was announced, others will say they’ve waited 5 years since AC disappeared. Either way it’s been awhile. On the player front we’ve seen the influx coming into the club. We managed to snag Kentaro Takada for the podcast, and many of…

    So another major announcement today for Saint Louis FC  with the unveiling of our inaugural schedule. We’ve been waiting a good long time with baited breath, ready and waiting to plan road trips, tailgates, viewing parties and the like. Realistically, with the conferences split in two, and the extra 3 local rivalry games, the only realistic…

    THE TIME IS NOW! Hello boys & girls. It’s been a while since we’ve posted new content to the website. It’s become so easy to use facebook and twitter to keep our fans up to date with what’s going on and what we’re up to that sometimes we just get too lazy to actually write…

    Enjoy Yourself Hello everyone. It’s been a while since I’ve posted an article here. We can blame it on the alcohol or the fact that we’ve been so busy with the new season kicking off or that its just easier to post something on facebook, or we can be honest and just admit that I’m…
