The challenges of coaching in the 4th division w/ David Lindholm




Dummy: Interviews with smart people about soccer show

Summary: David Lindholm, who worked in the front offices of several MLS teams, was last on the podcast to discuss his essay for Howler on why the best American goalkeepers tend to be bald. Now he returns as the head coach of the NPSL’s Stockade FC of Kingston, NY, to describe the special challenges of coaching a team of aspiring amateurs. Then Edward Domain, a citizen of St. Louis, joins to discuss the particulars of St. Louis’s public financing plan for the proposed MLS stadium, which he says unfairly burdens the taxpayers of downtown St. Louis who would be better served if their money went to pay for basics such as health, safety, and transportation. (Here is his blog post that got George interested in speaking with him in the first place.) Win a set of these Umbro x Howler kits (short shorts included) for your team.
