Lots of grit, just one goal

Hosts: Rob Chappell and Ethan Maurice
Guest: Angel G, founding member of Westchester SC supporters group "914 Infantry"

This week on Talkin’ Flock, Rob is joined by guest cohost, longtime Flock member and Mingo superfan Ethan Maurice to break down a frustratingly slow-burn draw against One Knoxville — with one glorious rocket from Jake Crull providing the lone highlight. They discuss:

• The launch of Forward Madison’s Academy and the impressive coaching staff already assembled

• New AAPI Heritage goalkeeper kits and the cultural impact of representation

• Tactical takeaways from a match defined by defensive discipline and missed opportunities

• What’s working — and what’s still missing — from Forward Madison’s midfield and attack

Later in the episode, Rob chats with Angel G, co-founder of Westchester SC's 914 Infantry supporters group, about building supporter culture from scratch, the club’s connection to the community, and what to expect in this weekend’s matchup in New York.

And in stoppage time, two recommendations: one sporty and one nerdy.
