The words have again slowed to a trickle here at WSOTP recently, and as I usually do, I’m plugging the hole with another links round up. It’s not that there isn’t plenty to write about — I have a really long list of items that I’d like to get to — I just haven’t had […]

NLD, FIFA16 and me (and hopefully you too)
It’s been a hot minute since WSOTP has hosted an actual live event. We’ve not yet held a watch party this Premier League season, and our last live podcast recording was way back before the Women’s World Cup final. Hell, we’ve barely even had a chance to watch a match outside of the friendly confines of WSOTP World […]
commentary: xavier musketeers vs bucknell
Look, I know it’s late notice. But I’ve got some news for those of you who don’t have any engagements for this Saturday evening. You’ve got plans now. And if you already have them, break them. For the second time in as many weeks, I’ll be manning the commentary booth for the NCAA Division one match […]
EXCLUSIVE: cincinnati saints on the move
At some point or another, we’ve all been told the old adage of “don’t run away from your problems”. Throughout life, we’re taught that if we take on our problems head on, the outcome will be better and less painful. For the most part, that rings true. But sometimes, running is the preferred option and the […]
back in the booth
UPDATE ON 9/5/2015: Due to inclement weather, the Saturday, September 5th, kickoff was postponed to 10am on Sunday, September 6th. I’ll still be on the call. With the Cincinnati Saints summer NPSL season now over and the club opting to not join the professional indoor ranks this winter, that means the wait to hear Wrong Side of the […]
wild speculation
Without a doubt, these are exciting times in Cincinnati soccer. Two fourth tier clubs call the city home, fully professional indoor soccer looks on the verge of a return to the area, and a new billionaire-backed USL club with sky-high ambitions just set up shop here, too. But this past week, the keen-eyed observers in the area would […]
Lofty Ambitions
Sitting in an auditorium on the campus of the University of Cincinnati yesterday morning before the press conference had even started, I got the feeling that whatever was about to unfold at today’s official FC Cincinnati unveiling was going to change the face of soccer in the Queen City forever. I’ve been around the Cincinnati […]
fc cincinnati: panning out as expected
Back in May, alongside friends at Scratching the Pitch, I helped to break the story that the United Soccer League would be returning to Cincinnati. Included in that piece was the team’s name — FC Cincinnati — their colors, and their logo. Two weeks ago, I was the first to tell you that the still unannounced […]
go big or go home
It’s been over two and half months since Wrong Side of the Pond helped to break the news of a return to Cincinnati for the United Soccer League, but things have remained eerily quiet from the FC Cincinnati camp — at least in official capacities. For those still doubting the still-not-announced club’s existence, there’s really no doubt that […]
#forcincy match poster 6: saints vs indiana fire
Well, the end of the National Premier Soccer League 2015 season is imminent, and this coming Saturday’s game against the Indiana Fire Juniors will be the Cincinnati Saints’ final home date of the campaign (though a rescheduled home friendly against the Columbus Crew SC College Program will still take place on Saturday, July 25th at […]
