Bill, Boston, Brad and I offered up our Best and Worst of Sunday’s match vs Penn FC.

How come FC Cincinnati struggles with teams they should easily beat? Teams like Toronto FC II and this past weekend in Penn FC.

Fortunately for the Orange and Blue, FC Cincinnati’s Manu Ledesma sealed the 3 points with his free-kick goal in the 80th minute.

Fanendo Adi made another appearance for FC Cincinnati over the weekend. How long will it take him to gel with this squad? What formation should we expect to see going forward?

Charleston comes to town this weekend. What can we expect when FC Cincinnati hosts the 3rd best team in the USL Eastern Conference.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Ben Knapp and his family as they go through this tough time. Ben’s father Robert passed away on Friday.

If the season were to end today, FC Cincinnati would have the home-field advantage throughout the Eastern Conference playoffs and they would host Indy Eleven.

Love seeing this picture from DJ Switzer, the former Director of Supporter Relations at FC Cincinnati. His last day with the club was Friday. Looking forward to seeing you in the Bailey more ofter DJ! Thanks for all you did to help grow professional soccer in Cincy.

Bill, Boston, Rob and I offered up our Best and Worst of Saturday’s match vs Nashville SC.

Before the smoke had a chance to clear out in the Bailey, Danni Konig got on the board for FC Cincinnati. Unfortunately, that was as good as it got offensively for FC Cincinnati the rest of the night.

Unfortunately, THAT GUY, a.k.a. Big Bird, a.k.a. Tucker Hume scored his first goal of the season in the 87th minute for Nashville SC. Fortunately for FC Cincinnati, Nashville was unable to cash in more on their 19 shots.

FC Cincinnati Head Coach Alan Koch had some choice words for the officials after the match. Let’s be fair, the officials weren’t the reason why FC Cincinnati dropped points over the weekend. Nipun Chopra from SocTakes.com joined us on the podcast this week to discuss the troubling trend of coaches in USL voicing their displeasure after matches.

Fanendo Adi made his debut for FC Cincinnati. We discuss his first appearance for the Orange and Blue. How long will it take him to gel with this squad? What formation should we expect to see going forward?

If the season were to end today, FC Cincinnati would have the home field advantage throughout the Eastern Conference playoffs and they would host the Ottawa Fury.

If you haven’t seen the video of Alan Koch singing a Bailey chant, you gotta check this out.

Bryan, Boston, Rob and I recap the huge news that was announced by FC Cincinnati on Monday that Portland Timbers forward Fanendo Adi and San Jose Earthquakes midfielder Fatai Alashe have joined the Orange and Blue.

To find out a little more about FC Cincinnati’s first designated player signing, we visited with William Conwell from Stumptown Footy, a Portland Timbers blog.

Our own Bill Wolf had the chance to attend today’s press conference and was able to get some really good audio from Adi, Alashe, FC Cincinnati Technical Director Luke Sassano, Head Coach Alan Koch, Majority Owner Carl Lindner III and President Jeff Berding.

Speaking of announcements, last week FC Cincinnati announced that Head Coach Alan Koch has been extended through the 2020 season.

We opened up the phone lines and spoke with some great fans of FC Cincinnati. Do you like our Free-for-All episodes? Let us know at [email protected].

I think he’s going to fit in just fine here in Cincy.

Kevin Wallace, who currently serves as the secretary of The Pride, joins us this week to talk about the Unified Supporters of FC Cincinnati. They recently published a list of requests to FC Cincinnati regarding the new stadium. You can read more about them here: thepridecincy.com/blog/2018/7/16/mls-stadium-requests

We took a brief look around the rest of the Eastern Conference, including another story regarding Nashville’s MLS stadium.

It’s a packed week with two matches, will we see some squad rotation? Or should FC Cincinnati go for the three points. It was an interesting debate at the end of the show.

We knew he was a Potter fan. We didn’t know the full extent though…..

I don’t know what’s worse though Naz as Potter or our own Trisha Houser not even telling us she was on his team in the first place!

Boston Razzle Dazzle Brazzel, Bryan and I offer up our best and worst of the weekend during FC Cincinnati’s draw with Nashville.

Despite the draw on the road against and Top 5 team in the East, some of us are concerned about what this team shows in these “big games”.

FC Cincinnati announced today that they have released Daniel Haber on a free transfer to Ottawa Fury. Plus, the US Transfer Window opens up today! Can we expect FC Cincinnati to bring anyone to have an impact on the 2018 season or will they solely focus on 2019?

We ended the show this week discussing the Eastern Conference and which team FC Cincinnati should be worried about now in the 2nd half of the season.

This week’s tweet of the week comes from Connor Paquette. Connor found this goldmine after Saturday night’s North Carolina FC and Charleston Battery match. It’s hit the big time and his tweet/video has shown up on Sports Illustrated in fact!
