Cushing substituted forwards for forwards and the team kept pushing. A win. Imagine that. I’ve been hard on Nick, and one game against a poor side doesn’t cure everything, but I will credit him for using the forward depth and staying aggressive. Goal scorers always win MOTM, but Freese was...

I agree that the younger players need time on the pitch, and that switching out Bakrar for a game or two is a good idea. I think you are a bit aggressive on the Mijatovic assessment. It is entirely reasonable that after a game on Tuesday, and a multiple time zone flight, that he would have not...

7-0!

I understand there may be more to the story, and I am not sure a full time starting position is suitable for a 34 year old centerback, but any hope I may have had for Cushing is long gone. There is no bond with this team. If we are going to lose - and we are going to lose - at least make it...

Glad to get a win. And, I know it is snark, but a dream game for Cushing with all the defensive substitutions and low block the second half.

There was definitely a change in approach at the start of the second half. In part, Portland tried to push for the equalizer, but the press was dialed back and players were sitting deeper. Accepting subjective bias,, I'll defer to anyone that has a heat map or the equivalent, but watching it...

This is a fair point regarding press conferences and statements. Quotes here and there can paint many pictures. I also believe it is time for a change. In professional sports, any sport, messaging can grow stale and losing exacerbates that. The team needs a spark, and as they say you cannot...

Is that Lee or Cushing? Perhaps it is early and players stlll need time to adjust, but there appears to be a disconnect between players acquired (no one can claim this team has not spent) and players playing. I'll consider any argument, and I suspect there is enough blame to share, but one of...

After last year's mess I didn't bother. I will pay for the shipping if they make that an option. Also, with all respect to Billy's and the team's interest in being a good neighbor, there is plenty of space in the stadium for this and no need to force people to go to a bar.

Three facts. 1) Cushing will not change. The historical DNA of this team has been Manchester City, not Stoke City, yet his preference is to win every game 0-0. A defensive, counter-attack style can succeed, but this team is not - and has not - been built for that. From the start of the...

There is nothing good about an ohio state moment.

After reflection, people have correctly pointed out poor spells in the past and other calls for manager firings. However, the current run feels different, and not just due to immediacy: 1) Length. It has been a full season of frustration, even with the small run at the end of 2023. No other...

I’m now glad I need to miss two of the next three home games.
