Cincinnati now is fielding an 'amateur' team. To me it is sad news as I always look forward to the 'professional' format.

The problem as I see it is how the club is treating this move. The website as totally changed in almost ignoring the senior team. No more news on the league nor is there a link to uslfans.com any longer. The team roster has not been finalized and here we are with a game this weekend.

Kings, if you are reading this please take note. Treat the senior team at your soccer academy with some more respect. Feature them on the website as if they are a professional team. Keep the web site professional at least. You will lose supporters if you dont and if you do make the step back up to the professional level you will not be such an unknown.

Keep the marketing of this team at a professional level. The marketing has gone down in value since this move.

After reading these posts throughout the years, I finally had to say something to you Cinci Mike. SHUT UP! What have you ever done for Cincinnati soccer except whine and criticize? While some of us were pitching in for several professional teams (Cheetahs, Silverbacks, Riverhawks, etc.) you just sat on your high horse. Well enough is enough; if you're not going to do your part then just give it a rest.

Lose supporters? I think you need to actaully have to BE a supporter in order to complain about anything. But I don't think that ever stopped Mike.

Just wanted to pass along a score; Kings 1, Indiana 0. Final

good to see the kings start the season with a win

Great to see a KINGS victory. I saw that we outshot the other side 12-6. Sounds like a decent match. Does anyone know of the strengths and weaknesses that were shown in the first match? Can anyone make any predictions for the season?

As for me being negative.... Try sitting through a season like I just did with Derby and try and see things in a positive light. It's bloody hard I tell you.

Next season will be different under PJ though.

UP THE RAMS AND KINGS!

look on the bright side Mike, in 2 years Derby will be League 1 champions ::running away as fast as I can::

ARRGH!

It would appear that the Kings have to promote themselves more. Even though they lost(3-0) to Cleveland, the turnout(250) is far from the crowds you had last season. The Kings still need supporters!

As I stated before, I have noticed a decline in the club promoting itself. How can the club expect people to support them when they are not being given any information about the club.

Since the change to the lower league, the club seems to have taken a serious downturn. You have to keep the supporters involved with the team.

It appears the club believes that by supporting the Northern Kentucky youth teams they will not have to worry about fan support.

What needs to be done? Get the website up to par. It appears to be a youth soccer team website. There are no links to the uslfans.com site as there once was and player bios are rubbish.
Start treating this team as a professional team.
Promote the team over the entire tr-state area and not just in Northern Kentucky.

Was there a writeup about the Kings this season in the Enquirer? Will there be any team nights at any pub with the audio available to listen to through the web?

Kings, step it up.

Thanks,
