    So You Want To Stand In Section 8 With The St. Louligans?

        We’re thrilled to have so many new people wanting to be in our section for the games. Below are just a few simple things you need to know.   We’ve built a relationship with STLFC and established certain guidelines to make sure we can have as much fun as humanly possible without getting…

  • How was your week?

    How was your week?

    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.…

  • #BuiltForMLS

    #BuiltForMLS

    I hate it. I hate everything about it. Not the MLS itself, but the pandering to it, the race to join the league. 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…

  • Saint Louis State of Mind

    Saint Louis State of Mind

    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,…

    It’s impossible for me to convey everything that happened at yesterday’s event. If you were there I hope you had as much fun as I did. We met a lot of new people and had some laughs. STLFC was kind enough to have players and front office staff out to meet the fans and answer questions…

  • Case for the defense of the kit

    Case for the defense of the kit

    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…

  • The 2015 US Open Cup & STLFC

    The 2015 US Open Cup & STLFC

    A little over a week ago the format for the 2015 U.S. Open Cup was announced. It went a little bit unnoticed by STLFC fans. I don’t think the club did a good enough job of pointing out the fact that they’re playing in the Cup and what it means. So, here’s my amateurish explanation…

    (How I Grew To Hate Louisville)   Ok, we knew going into our inaugural season that one of our biggest geographic rivals would be Louisville City FC and that we’d have some fun banter with their supporter group the Coopers.  So far that’s going great. We’ve given and gotten some good shots from them and…

    We’ve picked up a lot of new followers and likes lately and some of you have asked or may be wondering, why some of us refer to Saint Louis FC as the Chupacabras? or why there’s a Chupacabra on some of our T-shirts and the new scarf? So here it is: The Chupacabra joke. Mitch, Matt…

      For those that aren’t complete soccer nerds like me, I’m going to give you the basics of the USL PRO/MLS affiliation model and what it means for us locally with STLFC.   Starting in 2014 MLS decided that their Reserve League wasn’t adequately preparing their young players for the first team. To rectify this…
