First half thoughts

New England returns from west coast to three straight home games

by Adam Vaccaro Following their second straight loss in California, it’s sure to come as a relief to the New England Revolution that their next three matches will take place in Foxborough.  Over the course of the next two and a half weeks, the Revs will play host to the Colorado Rapids, FC Dallas, and [...]

Post-match links

It was a rough one for the Revolution last night as their two week stretch of strong play was shattered by the Earthquakes in San Jose.  The Revs fell by a score of 2-0 and just did not play particularly well at all.  There’s not much out there today aside from match reports, so after [...]
