Highlights from this week’s show.

Ken Hoetker makes his debut as a CST analyst this week! Give it up for Ken! We opened up the show by discussing the 1-0 win over Toronto FC II. That makes 4 Widmers Clean Sheets this season! Check out their Fluff and Fold Laundry service over at WidmersCleaners.com. A big reason for that clean sheet? Tyler Polak for FC Cincinnati who was voted Man of the Match here at CST and was also named to the USL Team of the Week for his performance against TFC II.

Djiby’s suspension is nearly over so Ken, Bryan and I talk about potential lineup combinations if Alan Koch ever decides to go with 2 strikers rather than 1.Joining us on the Kings Hammer Hotline this week is

Joining us on the Kings Hammer Hotline this week is special guest, Justin Hoyte, defender from FC Cincinnati. Justin fills us in on his long road to fitness after getting hurt just 12 minutes into his USL debut. He was in the 18 over the weekend so that means he’s good to go. He’s itching to make that home debut at Nippert Stadium soon. Justin is a lifelong Arsenal supporter, despite his dad being a Manchester United fan (GGMU). He hasn’t had a chance to try Skyline just yet but he’s added it to his list of must have’s soon.

Bryan wrote a fantastic piece last week regarding the stadium situation and MLS expansion which we discuss a bit on the show this week. Give it a read here.
