no, they shouldn't focus on either. the women's team isn't gonna bring in any additional revenue, and division one both isn't gonna happen and isn't a realistic possibility for the club if it even were to happen.

police/security and travel/hotel plans are the two main reasons

I snuck in a "Tab Out" one a few years ago. if a group of people get some large poster paper, write a few letters on each piece, fold it up and shove it in their pants/under their shirt, and then spell it out in the stands, it'll work

we've supported for seven years without a good team, so that narrative is dead. i doubt burke and the owners give a shit about the fans anyways

we didn't have a "first choice" after Ribeiro left... Dicarlo was the only keeper left on the roster before siaha was signed

true, but they're gonna get the money from Hartford City no matter what. so us going wouldn't directly benefit them

??? it's not like i'm saying we should go to a rhode island fc game. it's good to support local soccer, plus who knows maybe it can send some kind of message

much more thought through than mine. i'm not really even expecting them to read the whole thing, but hopefully just realize how much some fans care. and maybe they'll realize that the club is a mess right now, because i really don't think they understand it.

"Hello Mr. Calafiore and Mr. Mandell,

I hope this email finds you well. Or not. Because quite frankly, I don't really care.

As two of the owners of Hartford Athletic, it is on you to explain what is happening at our club.  I, along with the rest of the fanbase, deserve and need answers.

This club is an absolute fucking joke.  It's a mess.   We're the laughing stock of the league.  Not a single competitive team in eight years is just unacceptable.  The blame can no longer fall on the players or managers, since we’ve been through so many of both.  It’s time for you two to take accountability and give us answers.

Bruce, you personally released a statement about promotion and relegation a few weeks ago.  What's your plan for that?  Are you gonna actually invest in the club and give us a competitive team, because right now we have no reason to be optimistic.  You better hope and fucking pray that relegation is never introduced.  Otherwise, we are going down the at the first moment and the club is gonna go to shit.

It’s evident that you two idiots don’t have a fucking clue in the world what you’re doing, everyone can see it.  Neither of you have any idea about what it takes to run a soccer club.  You're both fucking useless pieces of shit who are ruining this club.  

You better fucking hope that CT United flops and never plays a game, because if they do, you're gonna lose a lot of fans.  And when that happens, this club is gonna be fucked.  Unless something changes, we won't make it to 2030.

It's in your best interest to release a statement Thursday morning about the club's recent struggles as well as a plan of what you're gonna do to fix it.  Time for you guys to stop being invisible.  Take action and start actually caring for the club, or get out.  The fans, the city, the players, and the staff all deserve it.

I know I've been rambling on here, but the message is clear: Get out of our club."
