When I started Wrong Side of the Pond close to seven years ago, I didn’t really have a plan in mind. I had just moved to Louisville for a non-soccer related job, and I was looking for a way to pass the time in a new city where I didn’t know anybody. Keeping a blog to spill the many, many thoughts […]

WSOTP pod: our first threesome
Caught you’re attention with that title, didn’t we? Don’t worry, we won’t tell anyone, so long as you listen in to our first ever three-person #Pondcast. So who was our lucky third? D.J. and Jeremy welcomed in their former Cincinnati Saints intern, current editor of Ohio University’s Post Sports, and Norwich City supporter Charlie Hatch (@charliehatch_) to join them for […]
WSOTP pod: a “berry” special episode
I know the title of this week’s episode of the #Pondcast is a bit cringe worthy, but I just couldn’t help it. The draw of using the awful pun — inspired by us welcoming on the first ever FC Cincinnati signing, Cincinnati-native Austin Berry — was just too much. Sorry Austin, we owed you better. Also “berry special” on this week’s pod […]
WSOTP pod: joy and sadness in ohio
It’s been a busy week for professional soccer in Ohio. Most of it was great, but some of it was not so much. In Dayton, a new team revealed their identity. In Cincinnati, another team announced their first class of players. And in Columbus, the biggest game on the domestic soccer calendar was staged — unfortunately, the […]
a “great” day for soccer with fc cincinnati
One of the many peculiarities of soccer is that whenever you happen upon a day where weather is dreadful — think 45º F and driving rain — just about everyone you talk to will describe it as “this is a great day for soccer!” If not that saying specifically, a variation of it will likely fill its […]
WSOTP pod: a-klopp-alypse
Dulled from a particularly grating international break, the guys dip their toes back into the healing waters of the Premier League on this week’s podcast. Thoughts on the top three rolling on the weekend, Chelsea’s return to winning ways and some guy named Jürgen Klopp were all major points of discussion. Also in this week’s […]
fc cincinnati: a fall update
Last week, not quite two months after the team was officially announced there — and nearly five since we broke the news they were coming in the first place — FC Cincinnati were back at UC’s Nippert Stadium with all the city’s soccer eyes focused on them once again. The reason for the occasion? The club’s first […]
WSOTP pod: post-mexico meltdown mode
Though we considered abstaining from joining the cacophony of voices out there screaming about the need to burn down the US Men’s National Team’s house and condemn the players and coaches… the allure of joining the chorus was ultimately too strong to resist. As such, D.J. and Jeremy offer up their reactions to the CONCACAF Cup […]
WSOTP pod: post-international break blues
After a nearly two weeks off — you can thank the stupid international break for that — the boys return to bring you another action packed episode of the #Pondcast. And with two weeks’ worth of content to choose from, you can bet D.J. and Jeremy had plenty to say. There was USMNT drama to discuss, […]
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 […]
