For Union, attention to detail means wins | Philadelphia Daily News | 06/10/2011
Hey, it's not a issue for us, either. While blogs have done a superb job of running with it, the mainstream media have kept it quiet. In fact, only two credentialed reporters waited to shed light on the situation Wednesday, only after the fan-driven blog, the Brotherly Game, first reported it Sunday. Not exactly "blowing it out of proportion."
Podcast: ‘Union Sound’ With Union Midfielder, Justin Mapp

MatchDay: Union vs. RSL | Philly Union Talk
It’s time for a changing of the guard in Major League Soccer.

Match Preview: Union vs Real Salt Lake " Unholy Union – The fan blog for Phi. Union
Union are 2-0-1 in their last 3 matches, and RSL lost on Wednesday at Columbus. I would like to say that these trends mean an easy Union win, but that would be short-sighted. Salt Lake is another team with a great defense, much like Union, as they’ve given up only 6 goals in their 11 league matches. Union are pourous by comparison, conceding 10 goals in their 12 league matches. In other words, don’t expect a 6-goal outburst like what we saw in Toronto.
