The Philadelphia Union has released its schedule for 2012. A downloadable file containing the
entire schedule can be found here. With the addition of the Montreal Impact to the Eastern
Conference this year, MLS has moved to a conference based schedule. Each team will play 34 games,
but instead of the balance schedule we enjoyed last year, we will be seeing the following:
Due to the higher number of clubs in the Eastern Conference, each club will play a total of 25
conference matches.
It's true, there are a lot of Brentons in Swansea. Third most dense concentration of Brentons in

The Philadelphia Union fell 1-0 to lowly, winless Toronto FC. Even salvaging a tie in this game
would have been an embarrassment.
The Union's inability to score continues, with no end in sight. The offensive statistics make
for pretty grim reading. The Union are at the bottom of the table in shots and shots on goal.
