Hello you lovely Gulls! We haven't been in contact of late so I thought I'd pop by.
The defense of the North American Soccer League Cup begins tonight. Holders Minnesota Stars take on the Carolina Railhawks tonight at 7:30 CST. For those with insomnia, streaming video should be available at MN...
Last Saturday at the Nessie the boys got a 3-1 result to take into tomorrow night's away leg. In truth the Stars scored all four goals with an own goal off an errant backpass to the keeper. The game will be streaming on NSC Minnesota Stars | North American Soccer League as usual. In addition...
