Fort Lauderdale Strikers

RIP friends

see you at the U.S. Graveyard Cup

Not all heroes wear capes.

Some romance a microphone with emotion and flair the likes of which nobody has ever seen.

Footy on TV will never be the same.

(oh and he was a pretty decent footballer too 😉)

Hope it’s a Bernini sculpture of a retirement, Ray.

Bonus: in addition to not having their own history, heritage, or tradition, they literally bulldozed over somebody else's, in an entirely different city, because they didn't have their act together half a decade after being announced.

#RIPLockhartStadium

It's a real bummer that due to complete and total mismanagement we're arguably the only legacy NASL team that was truly relevant and successful not playing in some form today.

It's great that FTL does again have a true pro club of its own, but still sad it's not in Red & Gold.

UTD vs Sun
(Super League)
UTD vs Rowdies
(#USOC / Jäger Cup / League play when pro/rel happens?)

Not quite the same, but still good

We're back!

*In cocktail form

**2nd image for comedic effect, alcoholism is very serious, please don't be like Bestie

Did somebody say soccer and drones?!

We're Loki, but without the two seasons of fun time travel shenanigans with Owen Wilson

When you’re dead but you were able to beat Orlando in the #USOC

48 years ago today, April 9, 1977, pro soccer came to #FortLauderdale for the 1st time.

The @ftlstrikers.bsky.social defeated the St. Louis Stars 2-1 at Lockhart Stadium, & ever since Broward County has been the heart of soccer in southern Florida.

Today #FTLUTD carries on the legacy!

#WeAreFTL

Congrats on beating the junior squatters, Miami FC.

Signed,

The reason you had to legally call yourselves “The” Miami FC

#USOC2025

Over here trying to figure out what evel on the pyramid

"only exists as Bluesky and Insta accounts and a few trademark listings"

counts as

One of those names ring a bell?

Neveleff was briefly manager of @ftlstrikers.bsky.social for the Spring 2015 season.

Later he'd go on to manage Orlando City B, assistant manager for New England Revs & USA U-20s, and is currently also the manager of the Dominican Republic national team.

May the F̷o̷r̷c̷e̷ Fort be with you

Fort Lauderdale club travelling to Coney Island for a big soccer match at the ballpark?

Most people: "Oh cool should be a good one!"

Us: PTSD intensifies

But they don't control the Bluesky handle!

Take *THAT*, pro soccer establishment!

Always love to see a former Striker still in action ❤️💛❤️

"last lower division team standing" prize money winner roll call

🙋

We'd like to see status updates on:

• Aaron Davidson
• That BS offsides call at the end of the 2015 semifinal on Coney Island
• Chuck Blazer's cats

[conflicted feelings intensify]

The South Park Rob Schneider bit was a decent meme amongst some of the office staff for awhile in 2015 🤣

On this day 8 years ago, a Fort Lauderdale Strikers team took the field for the last time (...for now).

A U20 squad, wearing black and yellow, finished as runners-up in the Lauderhill Youth Soccer Classic on December 18, 2016.

Your thoughts dwell on the Soccer Bowl

Need more dead buddies, it's a real ghost town on here

(get it, ghost town)

While we're at it, where our Silverbacks/Eddies/Puerto Rico x2/Scorpions/Cavalry fam at?
