Roogsy needs to lecture you about attacking those straw men.

This thread is about the excitement level in the stadium. That's Paul Beirne's domain. He should be fired for his initial mistakes...

We need to be careful with the type of thinking we used last time. That's exactly how you get Gullit and Winter. And 0-8.

Meh. One display, that's overshadowed by everything Seattle and Portland have done since they entered the league.

Keep putting your head in the ground.

And results are a huge reason for the...

Instead of posting silly pictures show me pictures of groups pulling off a good tifo in a corner like 112, something of the calibre of what Seattle and Portland does. I'm talking cards, flags...

Really, dude? The perfect location? Bit much, considering behind the net is the standard home of supporters around the MLS (forget the world, people get hurt when you bring up Europe).

Supporters...

Hope you don't mind, I'll take the words of the RPB pres at that time over yours 6 years later.

And you still haven't told me some things I didn't know about...

Wish I knew. That would be quite the leak if that document got out, never going to happen though. We just know they got a few names and the final decision was in Beirne and Anselmi's hands. That was...

When I get some time I'll dig up some of the old posts on U-Sector if they aren't gone. I was also there, but on the U-Sector board. Think I had like two posts, ah those were the days.

Please do...

Klinsmann gave them a list of managers and PB and TA picked one. If one was a cynic one would say that the marketing spin they could put behind the BS of an Ajax-style academy factored in, when the...

For the nth time, the decision to hire Winter was made by Anselmi AND Beirne. I wish the town halls were recorded.

But even if you don't buy that, the drop in atmosphere is on Beirne. Most...

The vaseline is the best handout ever, it's made these last few weeks bearable.

Again, Aron Winter was OK'd by Tom Anselmi AND Paul Beirne. There are very few major decisions that happen without Paul Beirne's final OK.

This includes the Liverpool friendly. Not sure there are...

Has there been a history of banners being banned at the gate for anything other than profanity? I remember the north west corner getting away with a lot of stuff at the end of the Mo era.

I think...

No coaching experience, but happens to be American, played in the American High School system, and worked his way up the American minor leagues until he reached Dallas Burn. The man knows the...

What about San Jose, Philly, and RSL? They don't have the decades of experience, but they went out and got people with decades of experience in the USSF and NCAA. We got Mo Gretsky and a guy who...

This shit is inexcusable. Stay off the roads.

We need a competent president of the club that knows the American system (so preferably American). The owners are incompetent but you can't deny they spend the money. Really hope Rogers/Bell do the...

If you look at what we had in year one and what we have now, this guy is easily one of the worst executives in the league when it comes to dealing with supporters.

A dream world would be an FO...

I have issue with how this was handled in the early days, and how RPB execs went on U-Sector's board and hassled them to move into 113, but I don't doubt for a second that Paul Beirne pressured them...

I am not faulting the supporters at all. Of course our current slump is due to on the pitch. I'm talking about the future of support. That's what this thread is about. Don't put words in my mouth....

The blame for the drop in supporter quality is on Paul Beirne. He got everything wrong on day one and we're reaping the fruits of those errors now. Instead of going with what worked in Chicago and...

For sure, it all boils down to the quality of your players, though. You can't really play a back 4 at all if the only way to come out with a clean sheet against an expansion side is to literally put...

This doesn't really help your point. The MLS is a different beast. We can't say Barca plays a formation, if we play it we'll have the same success. RSL's 4-3-3 is a better example to bring up.
