Soccer pioneers come in all shapes, sizes, and genders. As a student athlete at Yale, Lawrie Mifflin paved the way for Title 9 and NCAA girls sports in the early 70's and then rolled that into a career in sports journalism. Lawrie covered the NY Cosmos and numerous World Cups at a time that female sports reporters were non-existent. Kevin and Chris sit down with Lawrie to celebrate the life and career of soccer's first female reporter on this episode of Over the Ball.

“Bet on yourself” , was Brian Walsh's simple advice to me in response to examining his success to date.Arriving in the US nearly 20 years on a college scholarship Brian has continued to fulfill that promise to himself rising through the ranks to launch and spearhead youth programmes at NY Cosmos and now NYCFC. Leveraging critical thinking, navigating change successfully and being prepared to go above and beyond have been at the heart of Brian's career to date. With over 25,000 kids passing through NYCFC youth programmes over the past 5 years it's hard to argue against it's success and sturdy foundations. Unprecedented interest and growth in football combined with a home World Cup on the horizon allowed for us to have a timely conversation about youth football and it's rise in one of the largest metropolitan areas on Earth. Among what we discussed included;- 20 years in the United States from college scholarship to youth director.- The Monday evening in downtown New York which altered Brian's path?- Building the youth development programmes at NY Cosmos & NYCFC from scratch.- Insights into running a youth development programme the sheer magnitude and scale of NYCFC's?- Advantages of working within a multi-club network?- Impact of the monumental growth and interest of the game in shaping the eco-system around a player?Timestamps;00:00 - 05:04 - Early Beginnings05:05 - 09:09 - Change of Path09:10 - 15:45 - NY Cosmos15:46 - 31:45 - NYCFC31:46 - 39:06 - AdviceBrian's Twitter; https://twitter.com/nycsoccer1?lang=en

[Click out all the content from MrRichardClarke here]Contrary to popular belief, the New York Cosmos are still alive.Gone are the glitter-strewn days of the late 1970s when Pele played on the pitch, Mick Jagger watched from the packed stands and then, afterwards, they partied together at Studio 54. The old North American Soccer League soon crumbled under the weight of its own excess. However, its leading team gained an enduring legend.I spoke to official club historian David Kilpatrick about the incredible origin story of the Cosmos, its brief spell in the limelight, its troublesome rebirth and how, just maybe, there may be a route back to centre stage.TOPICSThe genesis of the Cosmos - Atlantic Records, two Turkish brothers, Gotham Soccer Club and the New York GeneralsThe impact of the 1966 and 1970 World CupsCosmos is short for Cosmopolitan like NY Mets is short for MetropolitanChasing Pele - "George Best did not turn up and Henry Kissinger helped"Adding Carlos Alberto, Giorgio Chinaglia New York in the late 1970s - financial problems, the 'Son of Sam' murders and the need for glamourThe power of Chinaglia at the CosmosThe retirement of PeleThe global tour - Indonesia, Hong Kong, South Korea, Australia, Malaysia London - and the tax dodge that helpedWhy the Cosmos became the first US soccer brandWarner's problems, a failed video game for ET - Extra-terrestrial and the sale of the club"I'm with the Cosmos" - the phrase that got you into Studio 54The reboot for the NY Cosmos after the documentary "Once in a Lifetime" Why they did not join MLS"The most successful franchises in MLS are those who have embraced their NASL history."Did the Cosmos win battles for the ‘soccer family' in the US?The influence of the Cosmos in the early American World Cup squadsSteve Hunt - seven games for Villa, sold to the Cosmos, played with Pele, went back to the English top flight.

Three American soccer legends -- John Harkes, Tab Ramos and Tony Meola -- join Sam and EG to discuss the new documentary "Soccertown USA" outlining their incredible journey from playing together for a club in a small New Jersey town to carrying the USMNT to not one but two World Cups, culminating with a win over tournament favorites Colombia and pushing eventual champion Brazil to the brink in 1994 on home soil. Behind the scenes stories of Tab nearly signing ill-fated contract with NY Cosmos, Meola's ridiculous coming out party with the NT, Harkes' motivation from watching US fall short in WC86 qualifying, *that* game/goal versus T&T, and basically what it was like -- the highs and lows -- laying the foundation for soccer in the US for generations to come.

In this episode, Charlie discusses his early soccer life, turning pro, transitioning into coaching, Charlie Mitchell is a Scottish American former soccer defender and coach. He played ten seasons in the North American Soccer League from 1970 to 1979. Mitchell played for St Mirren F.C. in his native Scotland.[1] He joined the Rochester Lancers of the NASL in 1970. The Lancers won the NASL championship in 1970, and Mitchell was named an NASL all-star. He was an NASL second-team all-star in 1971 and 1975, and an honorable mention all-star in 1972 and 1974.[2] In 1976 Mitchell moved to the New York Cosmos,[3] where he had an assist on a spectacular bicycle kick goal scored by his teammate Pelé in a game against the Miami Toros.[1] In 1977 Mitchell played for Team Hawaii, where he became player-manager in mid-season.[4] Team Hawaii moved to Tulsa in 1978 and became the Tulsa Roughnecks; Mitchell was the only player Tulsa retained from the Hawaii roster.[5] Mitchell played the 1979 season for the Toronto Blizzard,[3] and finished his NASL playing career with a total of 206 NASL regular-season games and nine NASL playoff games.[2] After ending his playing career, Mitchell returned to Tulsa as manager of the Roughnecks.[4] The 1980 team finished with a 15-17 record and lost to the Cosmos in the first round of the playoffs. His 1981 team started with an 11-10 record, but in July 1981, Mitchell was replaced by his assistant Terry Hennessey. Sports Illustrated reported that this was due to team management's dissatisfaction with the Roughnecks' low-scoring offense.[6] Mitchell remained a popular figure in Tulsa, as a participant in local youth soccer programs,[7] and as a sports bar-restaurant operator.[8] He coached the men's and women's soccer teams at Northeastern State University in Tahlequah, Oklahoma for nine years[9] until his resignation in June 2005.[10]

Prolific rock/R&B drummer/musician Steve Ferrone (Average White Band, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers) joins to delve into the backstory of helping write/craft the official theme song for the New York Cosmos – the latest chapter in our irregular series devoted to Tim’s longstanding fascination with the North American Soccer League’s most famous franchise. Pop music aficionados know Ferrone as part of the “classic” mid-70s lineup of AWB (along with Hamish Stuart, Alan Gorrie, “Onnie” McIntyre, Roger Ball, and “Molly” Duncan); as a two-decade+ member of the Heartbreakers (1994-2017); and from a prodigious body of studio session work with a literal who’s-who of pop music’s biggest talent (Chaka Khan, Rick James, Eric Clapton, Stevie Nicks, and the Bee Gees, just to name a few).  But long-time Cosmos soccer fans may also remember Ferrone’s semi-invisible hand in the creation and performance of the club’s rhythmic anthem that blared from the Giants Stadium PA system after goals and anchored the team’s WOR-TV telecasts – recorded under the AWB nom de plume of the “Cosmic Highlanders” via Warner Communications corporate sister Atlantic Records. Besides the circumstances of the song’s origins, Ferrone regales Tim with stories of: how he stepped into the Average White Band during a critical time in the group’s then-young life; the musical magic of Atlantic and its founder-brothers Ahmet & Nesuhi Ertegun; how the “Cosmos Clap” came about; and the original song idea Cosmos management had in mind for the club’s official theme! Support for this week’s episode comes from the VisitArizona.com and ExpressVPN.

A late Merry Christmas to Steven, as the FKWs are joined by Cosmos fanboy, and Copa90 presenter Patrick Infurna. The Wankers talk rumors: Zlatan throwing Ronaldo some shade, Marcelo Bielsa's Spygate frank admission, some paper chase including Everton's mind-boggling interest in Michael Bradley, and Timmy Weah slaying it at Celtic. They had a lot of English footy to catch up on including FA Cup 3rd round games, Pete Wild's heroic run as the Oldham manager, the League Cup semifinals' first round and Premier League fixtures. It's finally time to get back to 'Murica and see what in Sam hell is going on in our own backyard, touching upon the Atlanta Silverbacks, Tyler Adams' precious post match interview, and upcoming friendlies in late January. The segment everyone waits for, female intended play, is all about that NWSL draft, and how much someone needs to #freeskyblue which leads them into a heavy Wankers Weigh In, giving the idea of inclusivity in fan culture some thought. And remember, just because it's a new year, doesn't mean you can't take your subs, if you need 'em.

Jim Trecker is considered one of the most prominent communications and public relations professionals in US Soccer history. He has been involved as a journalist, administrator and communications maven at all levels of the game, working for the NY Cosmos during the Pelé era, the Washington Diplomats when Johan Cruyff played there, the US Soccer Federation in the 1990’s, the Japanese Federation, and the organizing committees of the 1994, 2002, 2010, and 2022 World Cups. Most recently he has been involved with the build out of the National Soccer Hall of Fame in Frisco, TX. Join us as we discuss his journey from Connecticut to the top echelons of world football. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

These FKWs were #blessed to have Arsenal NYC's very own VP, Sean Swift, on the pod. This week's show includes recaps on Champions League, Europa League (sigh), the supporter's shield race between Atlanta FC and the New York Red Bulls, and Steven's clear obsession with the NY Cosmos. Listen to Andrea gush endlessly about Messi, continue to rag on Lamela and generally obsess over the bearded 'ssons' on Iceland's National team. The Wankers weigh in on Euro snobbery and why American soccer fans tend to choose European clubs over their own local football team. Don't worry, there's still a Mourinho soundbite. And never forget, you've got subs if you need 'em.

In a wide-ranging conversation, Tim welcomes on Nathen McVittie of Common Goal to compare the the game in England/US, his time with the NY Cosmos and Leicester City the season they won the Premier League, the importance of owning your own intellectual property, and how a rising tide will lift all boats in the American lower leagues.
