Armada Hooligans??   ??? ::)
In a boat at sea one of the men began to bore a hole in the bottom of the boat. On being remonstrating with, he answered, "I am only boring under my own seat." "Yes," said his companions, "but when the sea rushes in we shall all be drowned with you."

P.S. The residents in and around the area are losing their minds over the proposal due to traffic, noise, rowdiness concerns.

Looking at the area on Google Maps, I'm not sure I blame them. 2,400 people crammed onto that tiny road and having to work their way in and out sounds like madness. My high school football games are bad enough, and they pretty much happen in the middle of nowhere.
So, to the young people fighting in this movement for change, here is my charge: march in the streets, protest, run for school committee or city council or the state legislature. And win. - Ed Markey

Rowdy Soccer Crowd (RSC).
Do you believe that when the blue jay or another bird sings and the body is trembling, that is a signal that people are coming or something important is about to happen?

Anything happening with this team? Seems non existent. Passing up the USL was ridiculous.

I don't know all the specifics but I think technically the Armada are currently on hiatus. I believe the team they field now is a "developmental" team and they play against other amateur teams, mostly in high school stadiums in Florida.

The Armada we knew 3 or 4 years ago are gone. It's a shame too. Their games were fun those first couple years, even though the baseball grounds was king of an awkward fit. I had high hopes when Palmer took over from Frisch, who was clearly in over his head. But all they have done is sink further down.

I doubt there is any change unless another new owner comes around, and gets them in a league that matters.

They are a U-23 team now.  Now they can just use the stadium field at Patton instead of UNF.

Missing out on the USL was a death blow to the Armada.

They tied themselves to the NASL and it killed the franchise.
