Our thoughts about USL League One Financials

The 2020 USL League One season seemed like a blur, didn’t it?  It flew by as quickly as it seemed to be put together in the early months of this past summer.  This is in no way a criticism of the league: back in June the league faced the same ultimatum as all sports leaguesContinue reading “Our thoughts about USL League One Financials”
