Rob Stone is sick of the Revolution, says it's time to 'pull them out of New England'

The New England Revolution are a controversial team in MLS and most of that is owed to their ownership. The Krafts were one of the first owners in MLS and helped keep the league afloat in the early days, but their commitment in recent years has paled in comparison to the other ownership groups. The Revolution still play in an NFL stadium, don't have the infrastructure that other clubs have and don't spend the way other clubs do.

In short, the Revolution have stood still while the rest of the league has grown and FOX Sports' Rob Stone is sick of it. He laid into the club on SiriusXM FC's United States of Soccer.



The Revolution's logo and jerseys have been the same (generally) since 1996, the first season of MLS. They've seen nearly every team in the league get a new stadium -- D.C. United, the team that could never get a new stadium, even broke ground on theirs -- and most are now in city centers, as opposed to out in the suburbs. There is no doubting that MLS has passed the Revolution by and there's no indication that the club are especially desperate to make significant changes anytime soon.

Stone is hardly the only MLS fan who hasn't been happy with the Revolution, and as more expansion teams and established teams continue to push the league forward, the pressure will only increase on New England and the Krafts.
