Much as I hate to post on top of literary genius, i.e. our Eastern Conference primer (GO READ IT NOW!), there’s player news afoot:
The newest @loucityfc signing: Matthew Fondy, a forward who played in 2014 for the Chicago Fire. @LouCoopers

What do we know about Fondy? Well, he’s 25, 6’1″, our first forward signing, and he’s got great hair. Fondy spent the latter half of 2014 with the Chicago Fire, and was previously with Chivas USA. Unfortunately, he never scored a goal in MLS, but then again, neither did most anyone else with Chivas or the Fire. Prior to that he had some good runs with Pittsburgh Riverhounds and scored 14 goals in 29 appearances with the former LA Blues. Let’s hope he gets back to his goal-scoring ways with Lou City.
