Whats with this team! I used to love the Kings. They used to put the fans first and were a professional franchise first and foremost. Now the team has moved from the professional USL Second Division to the amateur Premier Development League. I was angry because attendance has kept going up and merchandise sales seems to be good and the Kings had just purchased Town & Country Sports & Health Club and gave the possibility of building an actual soccer specific stadium. They never let it slip that the PDL was an amateur league either so the casual soccer fan could easily be fooled. Amazingly ticket and merchandise sales haven't gone down so I wonder where all the money is going if not to the players. I came to terms with this but when they moved their official site from
www.cincinnatikings.com to
www.kingssa.com it crossed the line. The KingsSA stands for Kings Soccer academy. You know where a team's priorities lie when their website name highlights their youth league rather than the actual team! Even more annoying is the little news, other than game scores, that the website gives to the actual team. But news on the soccer academy is updated daily. Where did this once proud franchise go?
