Well we know we'll be at the Citrus Bowl against the number #1 seed. It will be a tough game and will take alot to bring out a win bu.....

All the hell with it. I want to TAKE THEM OUT!! They come off as arrogant and the fans have already gotten on my bad side. Especially the tool that decided to mess with celebrating Kicker fans with a picture of Richmond burning. First, we were both part of the South so it makes no sense. Second, bringing the destruction of a city into a soccer match just makes a person look like a tool. This is USL sir. Stop acting like teams overseas that sing about plane crashes, murders,etc.

For Kicker fans this is about soccer and championships. If Orlando wants to make it out to more than that they can. For me personally its only about the USL championship and Orlando is in our way.

(Side note: KU fans before the VCU game only talked about destroying us like the Civil War and such. We know how that game turned out. )

Although I am glad to see good USL crowds down there, I have noted a distinct arrogance from OC players and now fans this year also.

What that said, hope you guys teach them a little humility 101!

Where was this ? I must have missed it.

Kickers FB page

All I know is those endzone fans better keep the damn streamers off the field. The refs just sat back and let the OC supporters drop streamers all over the Charleston goalies box all game. Hell Kickers supporters have been warned by refs for lesser things this year. The Charleston goalie had to keep cleaning his box out to do goal kicks.

Well I mean the fans and organization are talking about stadiums and such for MLS. They have one meeting with the MLS after existing a year and they are already getting ready to give themselves the MLS Cup. Most of the fans in the USL hope for a good season with a season championship at the end. Orlando is starting to come off as the club that thinks its entitled to something. Its great they have had a good season and good crowds as of late but they are not entitled to anything. The fans tell me the cheap shots they been taking at Richmond and Civil junk is about us beating them early in the season and the championships they deserve. They say they are the new leader of USL and everyone in the league better realize it. The streamers thing annoys me. Whether or not its legal it just seems unsportsmanlike.

You guys need to get on the USL FB page. Im having fun getting those nimrods wound up.

anyone going to the game to take some go AZTEX signs

Dave,
What is the Kickers FB page or USL FB Page?

Dave and I have been having it out with them all day. They got some horrible fans. A couple of them already cussed me and him out on the USL page.

The Richmond burning pic was deleted but Orlando's official FB page kept it up.

Newswatch the USL has a facebook site. The Orlando fans are blowing it up so I threw a little gas on the fire. I love getting people fired up to they start cursing and calling people names. The when they start mis spelling simple words it really gets funny. I mean they have kids running across the field, people in the stands throwing stuff on the field, ect... and they think it's acceptable. Meh it was a slow day at work so it gave me something to do.

its the first real pro team they've ever had.. sorry the Magic don't count... they don't know how to not act like 5 year olds yet

Its funny I put a slight changed version of Wavin flag on Kickers page to just lighten things up and suddenly the Orlando guy is back saying Kickers fans drink Haterade. Who is hating on them? They been blasting Kicker fans left and right the last few days. Minus my bold prediction on FB not one Kicker fan has even come close to bashing Orlando.

Sup Guys!
I just wanted to stop by and say hi and that I’m looking forward to the match this weekend. Couple of things:
1. Don't mind the Jazzy Hotdog he is just trying to be funny but failing at it. (Using the same joke over and over gets old…fast)
2. I haven't noticed any arrogance in the players, but if you can point me to some examples that would be nice.
3. Arrogance in some fans? Yes maybe. But they are happy to have a winning team. For the streamers...I personally don’t like them thrown during the play. For celebrations, yes throw all you want. The ILF have been doing that all season. USL or the City FO doesn’t have any rules against it, so it will continue. I suggest petitioning the league office if you don't like it.
4. Actually we've played four MLS clubs, three of them being preseason. Give ourselves the MLS cup? That's just you being ridiculous.
5. Except for one match, we've always had good crowds. 5445 avg. w/ three being +7k.
6. From day one the FO and team said it's all about winning the season and championship. And guess what? So far so good.

I'll be rooting for you all against Chicago.
Also, don’t how bad Irene will get up there, but good luck.

First off welcome to USL Discussions. Dan does a great job with the boards here and as you can see each team has it's own little sub forum.
I don't think anyone on this side has taken any shots at the players. Just a few of the fans that somehow think they can affect the outcome of the game have been the targets. All in all it's fun to talk a little trash.
As for the streamers I have never liked anything being thrown on the field by anyone. ALL the players are vulnerable to injury when that takes place. We actually had a kid, maybe 5 years old, have a vuvuzela hanging over the wall here and the linesman ran into it. The official took it as someone hit him with it. Anyway at halftime they announced over the PA that if it happened again they would stop the game. I would assume in that instance we would have had to forfeit. Not 100% sure on that though.
Hopefully Saturdays game will be as good as the two first round games were and it can be decided by the 22 players on the field.
And good luck to you guys as well with this hurricane. Along with you all Charleston and Wilmington are in it's path.

everybody focusing on Irene and we just had a freakin' quake up here

My first thought was a jet was flying over and then I realized what was going on.

LC11 - welcome to the boards!

Congrats on the tremendous season both on the field and in the stands.

I have no axe to grind against OC, I just read some comments earlier in the year from a Lion (can't remember the name)who stated they 'were the best team by far'...just came off a little arrogant.

I expect a tremendous game. I am hoping at least 10k come out. Of course with that said, MLS may try to cherry pick off yet another stronger USL/NASL market team.
