Ep.65 Phoenix Rising : DIGGING IN THE DIRT with guests Connor Sutton and John Morrissey

THE FAN EXPERIENCE, A PHOENIX RISING FC SUPPORTERS' PODCAST

Welcome to THE FAN EXPERIENCE, A Phoenix Rising FC Supporters Podcast - Episode 65!

Phoenix Rising FC have a bye week in Week 19 of the USL Championship (Twitter: @USLChampionship). No game so we decided to dig around in the dirt to see if there were any interesting takeaways from what we have been amassing over the last 18 weeks. I can hardly remember when we had so much fun in this treasure chest or learned so much about this team!

In this episode:

Digging in the dirt : Phoenix Rising FC, yes the boys can shoot! We have taken more shots than any other team - have they converted to goals? We have 5 red cards, lots of yellows - are we the dirtiest team in the league? Is there evidence to suggest that teams see a weakness on our left side? Who is the best player on our team and how is that defined? Lots more - Kelley McCarthy joins the fun and digs for the story behind the numbers.

Game Preview and awesome interview with the amazing Connor Sutton from Sacramento Republic FC : As well as doing many other things, Connor runs The Breakaway: A Republic FC Podcast. He came on the show to talk about the team, about the deep Open Cup run, and about the game in Phoenix on July 23.

USL News and Results : John Morrissey (Twitter: @USLTactics) is an analyst for Sacramento Republic FC, a co-host of @theUSLshow and a contributor to @backheeled. He brings us his weekly segment where he reviews the news and results around that league that matter to Phoenix Rising fans! Always fascinating!

Game Preview : Another preview, this time Phoenix Rising (Twitter: @PHXRisingFC) travel to Kentucky in what is supposed to be an epic midweek battle against Louisville City FC on July 20. Since LOU are currently in first place in the USL Eastern Conference it's looking more like a David v Goliath matchup, but who doesn't love being the underdog!
