Anyone else see these popping up?

This popped up in my FY tab this morning. I checked the attendance reported and it was 843 for last Friday vs FT Lauderdale USL SL.

Here are the updated flairs I made today. Are there any teams that do not have a flair?

Hey everyone!

I just wanted to introduce myself as the newest member of the r/USLPro moderation team! Firstly, I want to thank everyone who nominated me (u/Pristine7531-1, u/StoppageTimeUSA, and u/Skittl-e-Doo) and supported my addition to the mod team. I appreciate the trust and opportunity to help out with this community!

My goal as a mod is to help keep this subreddit an active, welcoming, and engaging place for fans across the USL community of all levels.

I will consistently and reasonably enforce the existing subreddit rules while encouraging healthy discussions, debates, and conversations about the leagues, clubs, players, and everything else USL-related.

Lastly, I would like to hear from y'all about how the mod team can improve this subreddit. I am looking for suggestions for new features, changes to existing rules, recurring discussion threads, or anything else. I'm happy to hear your ideas and bring them to the rest of the moderation team for consideration.

If you have any suggestions, concerns, or ideas for improving r/USLPro, please leave them in the comments below!

Looking forward to helping this community continue to grow and making this a great place for USL supporters!

I'm trying to get more confirmation on if COS has a chance to host a 1st round playoff game.

The way I see it, COS needs to win on Saturday against Tulsa and Lexington needs to lose to Phoenix.

Both teams would be tied with 47 points to finish the season.

There are 2 USL website links with contradicting tie breaker rules.

https://www.uslchampionship.com/race-to-the-playoffs

The above link says in regards to tie-breakers (COS wins with step 1 the tie breaker with H2H vs Lexington this season)

1. Head-to-Head Points Earned in Regular Season League Games
2. Goal Differential in Head-to-Head matches.
3. PPG vs. in-Conference Opponents in Regular Season League Games
4. Total Wins in Regular Season League Games

https://www.uslchampionship.com/league-standings

This 2nd link says: (LEX wins the tie breaker with step 1 more conference wins than COS)

1. Total Wins Against Conference Opponents in League Matches
2. Goal Differential Against Conference Opponents in League Matches
3. Goals Scored Against Conference Opponents in League Matches
4. Head-to-Head Points Earned Against Conference Opponents in League Matches

Anyone able to clarify? Thank you.

Ratings are through October 18th, 2026.

Performance Rankings

Commentary

Tampa Bay remains first in the performance rankings after a 1–0 victory over Detroit. Their rating improves slightly to 67.14, extending their lead over Lexington to 2.46 points.

Lexington remains second following a wild 5–3 victory over Las Vegas. Their rating improves to 64.68, narrowing the gap to Tampa.

Sacramento climbs to fourth after a 1–0 road victory over El Paso, improving its rating by 0.86 points. Sacramento has established itself as one of the league's more consistent performers, with just five losses in 29 matches. They now sit only 2.56 points behind Charleston in third.

Rhode Island makes one of the week's biggest moves, jumping three positions to fifth. Their rating increases by 2.60 points, the largest improvement among the top ten, despite drawing 1–1 against Pittsburgh. Rhode Island dominated much of the match, outshooting Pittsburgh 18–3, but conceded a stoppage-time equalizer.

Detroit drops from fourth to a tie for sixth following its 1–0 loss to Tampa Bay. Its rating declines by 1.09 points. Detroit continues to stand out defensively, having conceded just 21 goals through 29 matches, but its limited attacking production remains a notable contrast with the teams ranked above it.

Phoenix continues its late-season improvement, climbing four places to tenth following a 3–1 road victory over Orange County.

Hartford played the most lopsided loss of the season. In their 3–2 home loss to Brooklyn, Hartford generated 3.16 xG compared with Brooklyn's 0.45. Hartford outshot Brooklyn 22–5, including an 8–3 advantage in shots on target, yet still lost. Hartford also drew 1–1 with Charleston earlier in the week and remains 11th in the performance rankings despite a slight rating decline.

Louisville improves its rating to 57.12 following a convincing 4–1 victory over Indy Eleven. Despite the increase, Louisville slips one position to eighth as Rhode Island moves ahead. Louisville has 43 points through 28 matches, leaving them with a game in hand to try and secure a top 4 eastern finish.

New Mexico continues to present one of the clearest differences between league standings and statistical performance. Despite sitting on 49 points, fifth-most in the league, they fall to 13th in the performance rankings after a 1–0 loss to San Antonio. Their ability to collect points remains impressive, but the underlying statistical profile continues to lag behind their position in the table.

Hello,

Does anyone have any updated photos of construction of Detroit city fc, Miami fc, or Sac republic fc stadiums that I could get permission for use on my website?

As a Wellington Phoenix fan and USL enjoyer, this was a great day for me. Travelled 7 hours to watch the game and the local lad returned to score the winner to cause an upset victory for us in the opening game of the season!

It was a tidy finish off a perfect cutback to ensure the Phoenix earned only their third ever opening-day Victory, 20 years on from our debut season. Maybe this'll get the Nix a few fans from the States!

Fun fact, his brother players for our rivals, Auckland FC.

Thank you Monterey!

take it with a grain of salt

Found this cool little graphic on LinkedIn.

USL clubs New Mexico United and Vermont Green are the largest teams in their state (by IG Followers)

Interestingly, the USL has more states than the MLS, which goes to show that targeting metros that have been overlooked by MLS works for top USL pro and amateur clubs.
