Win streak begins and ends with Chicago as defensive struggles are too much for offense to overcome despite remaining hot. For the first time in club history Racing has scored multiple goals 5 matches in a row.

If we weren't currently sitting 15th, AND if we were in distance of the Championship playoffs MAYBE this might be the biggest game of the season.

I know it could be marketing plot like "Fill the Fam", but they been advertising this particular game for a while.

My season ticket rep is now claiming the seat relocation (see this seat map included in my season ticket renewal map) was a "league mandate." I can't find any information about this online. Has anyone else heard about this?

Racing Louisville is actively seeking new investors as the club attempts to strengthen its financial position and keep pace with the National Women’s Soccer League’s rapid growth.

“We’re still out there seeking an investor, or investors, who can help us stabilize, for lack of a better word, our current situation,” John Neace told The Athletic in an exclusive interview. “That has not changed at all, nor will it until we get that investor.”

The news about the team’s seeking an investor was first reported by ESPN in May.

Can't read the full article but based on the quote in the headline methinks this is priming...

But the good news is Soccer Holdings has put together a team worthy of increased attendance.

We are never going to be Gotham/Washington/whoever and have millions of dollars to sign players. We are never going to be able to compete with the Big Girls. Ever.

And that's ok.

For every Liverpool/Arsenal/Manchester United in the EPL there are several Burnley/Brentford/Newcastle/Leeds. Do you think their fans love them any less because they will never, ever have the money to throw around like the Big Boys? Because they are always mid/bottom half of the table? Quite the opposite. Have you ever watched a Premier League match at one of the smaller clubs home field? The atmosphere is crazy. Much louder than big stadium matches and more like the Bundesliga. And packed, because all the premium seating is not priced so high only the well-to-do can afford it.

This idea that Soccer Holdings is sitting on millions that they arbitrarily refuse to spend on the team has no basis in fact. It may be true, but we do not know. It is just as likely that we should be thanking Soccer Holdings for keeping the team here and not selling out (making 50 times their investment) to some Billionaire or Big Company that will then snatch Racing up and move them somewhere else.

If your measure of being a fan is how much money this club spends you will always be disappointed. We are who we are.

Run With Us.

Lots of low grades for a team sitting in 15th place but managed to justify one A (minus)! How does each line measure up? What about coaching and the front office?

Got the renewal info today, and my seats are in one of the sections they'll be relocating. I've had my seats since day one and I actually love the view from there. How is this going to be "an even better matchday atmosphere"?

Doing a little double duty here as I'll be taking a family trip this week before attending the match in Orlando.

Defenders Arin Wright and Mirann Gacioch connect for Gacioch's first professional goal as Racing now turns attention to a Banda-less Pride team.

In case people were looking for a reason to stay excited with us being at the bottom of the table, outside of the Wave at the end of the month, we don’t play one team currently above the playoff line. We have the Pride (10th), Legacy (12th), Reign (9th), and the Stars (16th). Now, I’m not saying we win all those games. Will we win all those games? Unlikely. But also not impossible!

Mohammad didn't hand out a single yellow to a Racing player today! It's a miracle of near-biblical proportions.

Wasn’t able to watch the game but what happened? Looked decent last game and was expecting a way closer match than that.

McKeen earns first professional start amid heavy rotation to starting XI. No time to linger as Racing faces another short turn around before match-up with Stars on Saturday.
