I Like Nick Cushing But Make No Mistake, the Man is On the Hot Seat
With the New York City Football Club’s 2024 campaign getting underway in just over a week the team is not only hopeful, but expected to show that last year’s subpar season was a fluke.

Union Draw Chicago 2-2 in MLS Home Opener

The beauty and the quirkiness of a two leg home and home series is that every goal counts. Every. Goal. Counts.

NYCFC Drops Home Opener 2-1, Still No Points in 3 Matches
The New York City Football Club dropped to a league worst 0W-3L-0D after a BRUTAL 2-1 loss in their home opener against the visiting Portland Timbers.

Hoo boy, if you told me at the start of this season that the New York City Football Club would still be searching for point number one going into match number 4 I would have told you you’d be lying. Not this team, not the one that landed 15 points in it’s final 8 matches […]
