    2017 may not have played out that well on the pitch, but in the parking lot we absolutely killed it. Obviously the tailgate crew put together the best food in all the land and we had more fun than fans of a team outside the playoffs should be allowed to have, but I’m not talking…

    It’s been a while since we’ve posted information about membership. For those that are new(ish) to the group, you may wonder how you officially become a St. Louligan. Well, I’d like to officially welcome you to the group. We charge no dues and we don’t have any official sign-up procedure. If you want to be…

    Season 2. It is upon us. Saint Louis FC is back this summer to unite us once again in our love of the beautiful game and our quest for fun. Thank you to everyone that made 2015 so special and welcome to the new people that plan on joining us for the 2016 USL season.…

    Ok, I haven’t completely lost it. I know Saint Louis FC has an offseason and it’s just begun.  But, just because there are no STLFC games to attend doesn’t mean there’s nothing to do.  First and foremost, pat yourself on the back for helping to make the 2015 USL season so great. I realize we…

    With the recent sellouts at Soccer Park we’ve had more new people checking out our section and wanting to be a part of the party. We want you there, but there are a few things you need to know before you start calling yourself a Louligan. We don’t charge money to be a member, but…

    You can’t always get what you want. At least that’s how the song goes. But sometimes you get what you need.  I think that’s about right for this season.  The play on the pitch has not been what we’d hoped for. One win at home is nobody’s idea of success.  We have a few more…

    There blew the final whistle. Standing in the Philadelphia bar with my mouth open, my typically overly-talkative self was left speechless. The United States Men’s National Team had just crashed out of the 2015 Gold Cup in a shocking loss to Jamaica. Even worse, I had purchased a Gold Cup Final ticket in March, weeks…

    “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…

    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…

    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,…
