Still about £200 off from being able to pay my rent so any shares would really help, sorry to be a bother
Been trying to sort something since the start of September (the DWP does not move at pace) but I’m still in limbo with it and I know I’m going to struggle to get the rent paid this month so, I’m again, shittily having to boost this.
Again hoping it’s the last damn time, ko-fi.com/lawsonsv

Allan Saint-Maximin to an MLS team would be so funny, someone should do it for the bit

If our "environmental protection" frameworks can stop an affordable housing project but can't stop a detention center or a highway expansion we really need to start talk about ripping things up root and branch.

Leyva did come on at halftime, but by that point Necaxa were already trailing by 2 goals and down a man. The game finished 2-0
For the first time since his move, Danny Leyva is on the bench to start the game for Necaxa as they take on Club America. Martin Carini hasn’t been hesitant to make halftime subs, so he could certainly come into the game as early as the start of the second half.

With Alex Roldan extending his contract in Seattle, it feels like a good time to bump my attempt from a couple months ago to explain what makes him so important to the Sounders www.sounderatheart.com/2025/11/in-p...
In praise of Alex Roldan, the overlooked key to Sounders’ success
Alex Roldan is like a good set of tires: extremely important but rarely praised.

I’m calling it now, the stone has been rolled away and this season we’ll see the second coming of Jesús.
96' SOUNDERS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAALLLL!

Jesús adds to his tally and makes it 3-0!

With the relevant transfer windows closing in a matter of days, it seems pretty clear that Obed Vargas isn’t moving this window. As a result I’ve been rethinking what seemed like the conventional wisdom around a possible move for him. It’s admittedly no small amount of hindsight, but here we are.

Playing around with @futi.live organized possession data.

In 2025 #MLS play, the Sounders ranked #1 in success rate and 8th in progression phases which @johnspacemuller.com defines as possession sequences where teams advance the ball into threatening areas before a shot or box entry.

Maybe when the magazine drops I’ll be better able to put how this feels into words, but for now I’ll just say:

I’ve gotten to realize a number of my dreams - both childhood and otherwise - as a writer for Sounder at Heart, but getting to write the cover story for a magazine is on another level.
This is not the final product but we’re so happy with the way the cover turned out that we wanted to share.

Reminder: the magazine release party is on Feb. 20 at Project 9 Brewing Co.
