Might be a little early for this, considering that there are only 5 players under contract, but…

What 3 things would you most like to see accomplished by the 2007 RailHawks?

For me, I’d like:
  • Average home attendance at 5,500+
  • Wins against the Battery and Silverbacks at SAS
  • Advance far enough in U.S. Open Cup to face a MLS team

I'm with you and might add to it a little bit:
  • Sellout SAS Soccer Park at least twice
  • Average home attendance in Section 204 supporters section: 50
  • HOST an MLS team in the US Open Cup
  • Make the playoffs (8 out of 13 teams will)
  • Beat Rochester and Montreal at least once each as we play both teams 3 times.


There's actually a few more players under contract now (9 from what I can gather but they haven't been formally announced).

Okay, I'll bite. Hagen, Abolaji, Donald, and John O'Hara?

Announcements next week?

Jeez, I'd forgotten about the two draftees, make that 11 then (actually, I don't know for sure the status of their contract negotiations)

I was told that announcements would be made this past week, so now I don't really have an idea. I wish they'd hurry up and make the announcement because I've been sworn to secrecy on a couple of them that I know for sure (and I'd love to be chatting about them here).

My guess is that they are trying to space out the news for greatest effect. With the schedule announcement a week ago, they'll probably drop some news next week (I hope).
