Highlights from this week’s show.

Bill, Bryan, Boston and I discuss the latest FC Cincinnati news. Here’s some of the recent items of note:

• FC Cincinnati has announced a new city wide FIFA video game tournament to take place February 11th and 12th at numerous locations around the city.
• The Knights of the Bailey will be holding a Chant Workshop on January 22nd from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. If you have chant ideas, please email [email protected].
• Don’t forget to get your applications in to join the Cincinnati Supporters Council. You have until January 13th.
• Join some of the Cincinnati Soccer Talk staff for Cincinnati Swerve Night January 21st at Game Time Training Center in Fairfield. Watch FC Cincinnati’s Antoine Hoppenot and Luke Spencer hit the field for the Swerve as they take on the Cleveland Legacy.

We discuss a rumor surrounding a player transfer, César Benítez, a 26-year old Paraguayan who currently plays in Brazil’s top league for Coritiba. We also discuss some of the places where FC Cincinnati need to upgrade before the season starts.

Still no news from the USSF and division sanctioning for the NASL and USL.

We’re visited by Michael Stump from alchmst.com. Michael designed the orange flags you saw waiting in the Bailey stands this summer and of course was generosu enough to design the new Cincinnati Soccer Talk logo.

Finally, incoming Missouri governor Eric Greitens reiterates his decision to not support state funding for stadiums, including the proposed $200 million soccer stadium in downtown St. Louis.
