New York Eagles
January 13, 2013
The New York Eagles were a nomadic/sporadic entry in the lower-division American Soccer League between 1978 and 1981 until years of bad debts and bounced checks finally sunk the club. The club drew poorly, as you might imagine from the team’s forlorn advertising brochure (left), showcasing the empty, rundown grandstand at Mt. Vernon’s Memorial Field in all its grainy, black-and-white decrepitude.
