Winning Side Coaches Promotion and Relegation Discussion

It's safe to say that the most successful episode of the Winning Side Coaches podcast is the discussion I have with Jeff Stalnaker on the subject of promotion and relegation in North American soccer.

This is a sports topic I feel very strongly about - on the "pro" side of the argument. The argument is simply this: it's the norm for the sport of soccer around the world, not just Europe. And frankly, if North America (US and Canada combined) wants to participate in the world's game, we should play by their rules.

If you follow me on Twitter, this is often the discussion I'm engaging in.

Anyway, the discussion that Jeff (a Fulham supporter) and I had on the subject was picked up by another pro-pro/rel blog called American Soccer Future.

The episode was archived on the Winning Side Coaches site a few months ago. However, you can hear the discussion on the ASF blog at: http://americansoccerfuture.com/winning-side-coaches-what-if-prorel-was-today/
