The Revolution won't have to wait long to start collecting frequent-flier miles thanks to a travel-heavy start to the 2012 regular season that will put them on the road for four of its first five games.

New England will pack its bags for where else - California, where they're scheduled to kick off their 2012 campaign on Mar.

Today Major League Soccer released its 2012 regular season schedule. Per MLS's new conference-focused schedule format, this season the Revolution will play each of its Eastern Conference opponents at least twice (Houston and Toronto), and the rest they will meet three times.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. It's hardly the stadium news fans of the New England Revolution want to hear, but the current home of the Revs and the NFL's New England Patriots, Gillette Stadium, will see much of its power coming from alternative energy sources in the near future.

An agreement between The Kraft Group and NRG Energy, announced today, will see the amount of solar energy generated at Gillette Stadium and Patriot Place triple.

Fairly quiet business weekend in American soccer, but here are a couple of stories worth noting. We'll start in New England, where owner Robert Kraft is pursuing a resort casino development across the street from Gillette Stadium, the current home of the Revs and Patriots. The story is significant to soccer fans only because of potential impacts on the Revolution's efforts to build a soccer specific stadium in the Boston area.

Four-time MLS Cup finalists (2002, 2005, 2006, 2007) the New England Revolution have officially launched their adidas 2012/13 home jersey.

The Revolution unveiled their new kits for the 2012-2013 seasons tonight at the Gillette Stadium Pro Shop. The jerseys feature a deliberate lack of silver and a return to the inclusion of red as well as the new addition of the flag of New England displayed prominently and proudly on the back of the jerseys just under the collar.

Revolution fans can finally exhale.

In a surprise announcement made during the team's 2012-13 jersey unveiling at the Gillette Stadium Pro Shop on Saturday, Revolution President Brian Bilello announced that the team had re-signed midfielder Shalrie Joseph. According to a tweet from Boston Herald reporter Kyle McCarthy, Joseph's new deal will classify the Grenadan center half as a Designated Player for the 2012 season.

A day after the Revolution declined the options on seven players, the team opened its wallet for long-tenured goalkeeper Matt Reis by signing him to deal that will keep in Foxboro for his 10th consecutive season. The terms of the deal were not disclosed, per MLS policy.

In 2011, Reis made 27 starts, recorded five shutouts and posted a 1.

The Jay Heaps coaching era in New England is officially underway.

Heaps was introduced as New England Revolution head coach at Gillette Stadium on Wednesday, taking over for the ousted Steve Nicol.

Heaps retired from playing for the Revolution in 2009 and was most recently a color analyst for the team's television broadcasts.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. The scene outside the Revolution locker room on Wednesday brought with it a mixed bag of emotions.

As the players and coaches cleaned out their lockers and carried their belongings to their cars, many were probably relieved to finally put the 2011 season behind them, head home, and relax after tumultuous 34 games.

When The Galaxy Beat the NY Red Bulls to secure the 7th trip to the MLS Cup final, it marked another notch for the 2nd most storied franchise in MLS History.

Emotions ran high at Gillette Stadium yesterday morning as the Revolution processed the departure of coach Steve Nicol.
Kyle McCarthy of the Boston Herald writes of the final meeting between Stevie Nicol and his New England Revolution players, as well as the profound effect he had on the Revs.

Finding a replacement to fill the enormous shoes left behind by its most decorated manager in club history will be no easy task for the Revolution front office. That is a given.

But, the organization won't be at loss for possible suitors. Although the Revolution may have posted a franchise-worst five wins in 2011, there's still a number of talented players on the roster that could merge under a new manager.

Not surprised to see the announcement that New England Revolution have fired head coach Steve Nicol. At the press conference after the Columbus game, Nicol had the look of a coach who knew his time was up.

Nicol leaves the Revolution after 10 seasons, a league record for tenure with a single club.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – The Columbus Crew came into Gillette Stadium Saturday night knowing all it needed to secure a fourth consecutive playoff berth was a win over the last-placed New England Revolution. Ninety minutes and one of its more dominant performances of the year later, the Crew had done just that.

Gillette Stadium Before The Gates Opened

New England Revolution and the Columbus Crew met in the Revs last home game of what has been a miserable season. New England comes into this match with a record of 5-15-12 while Columbus is 12-12-8.

While the Revs are playing for pride, a win for Columbus puts them in the playoffs.

Hello and welcome to the New England Revolution vs. Columbus Crew live game thread! With Sporting Kansas City's victory over the New York Red Bulls today, the Crew can clinch a playoff spot with a win tonight. So while the Revs may still be just playing out the season for little more than job security, this match should see Columbus come out swinging as they fight for three precious points.

Another season of Revolution Soccer has come and gone without silverware, and as we're left to ponder where things went wrong, there's a story flying slightly under the radar ahead of the home finale against Columbus on Saturday night: This could be the last time we see Shalrie Joseph in a Revs uniform on the Gillette Stadium field.

The New England Revolution will face off against the Columbus Crew in the 2011 home finale at Gillette Stadium. Revs fans who have had precious little to cheer about this year will be hoping for a decent send-off, but optimism is not likely to be the order of the day. New England hasn't even earned a point since September 10th.

Seattle's loss was LA's gain. Though the Los Angeles Galaxy didn't play on Saturday, Seattle losing means LA wins the Supporters' Shield as the team with the best regular season record. This is the Galaxy's fourth Supporters' Shield and their second in a row. They're also the third team in a row to win back-to-back Supporters' Shields.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. - The New England Revolution were unable to stop their skid at home Saturday night as they fell 2-1 to the San Jose Earthquakes at Gillette Stadium. Both teams had been previously eliminated from playoff contention and were competing for naught but pride and jobs.

San Jose opened the scoring through Chris Wondolowski in the first half.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. With their postseason hopes officially over, the New England Revolution's final three games won't be just about finishing the season with pride. The final three weeks of the season are expected to be a trial period for players, especially with so much overhaul expected after a lackluster campaign.

The New England Revolution are all set to take on the San Jose Earthquakes this Saturday at Gillette Stadium. It will be a battle to see who is more irrelevant in the current MLS conversation; both teams have been officially eliminated from playoff contention and are now playing for naught but pride and job security.

Diego Fagundez scored his second goal of the season on a night when he became the youngest player to start a game for the New England Revolution, but Fredy Montero responded with a pair of goals for Seattle Sounders FC as the visitors claimed a come-from-behind, 2-1 win at Gillette Stadium on Saturday night.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. Teenage phenom Diego Fagundez scored in his first MLS start, but Fredy Montero's brace officially eliminated the Revs from postseason contention as the Sounders secured a 2-1 win at Gillette Stadium on Saturday night.

Fagundez, who got the nod up top with Milton Caraglio, put the Revs (5-14-12, 27 pts.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. - Diego Fagundez became the youngest player in New England Revolution history to start a match and go the full 90, but his night was overshadowed by the predatory instincts of Fredy Montero as the Seattle Sounders ran out 2-1 winners at Gillette Stadium. The loss also means that the Revs are finally mathematically out of the playoffs, with three matches to go in a dismal 2011 season.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — Sixteen-year-old Diego Fagundez scored in his first MLS start, but it was Fredy Montero who made the difference in Seattle Sounders FC's 2-1 victory over the New England Revolution at Gillette Stadium Saturday night.

The Columbian capitalized on sloppy defending from the Revs in the 36th and 47th minutes to overturn Fagundez's 35th minute opener and improve the visitors to 16-6-9 (57 points) on the season and keep the pressure on Los Angeles in the Supporters Shield race.

When the Revolution step onto the pitch on Saturday night, they'll have two objectives: avoid another embarrassment and, if successful, steal three points in the process.

Both will be easier said than done, of course. With the high-octane Seattle Sounders in town, the Revs will have their hands full against one of the most well-balanced clubs in the league.

*Add Chris Birchall (left hamstring strain) to the growing Galaxy injury list released today. The midfielder, who has made 21 appearances for the Galaxy this season, is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against Morelia, along with the same players who remain in that category from Friday's update: David Beckham (back spasms), Robbie Keane (right gluteus tightness) and goalkeeper Donovan Ricketts (right quad tightness).

At this point in the season, pride is the only thing remaining for the New England Revolution to fight for. Sitting last in the Eastern Conference with just five games remaining, the Revolution turn their attention to the Chicago Fire against whom they will do battle Sunday afternoon at Toyota Park in Bridgeview, IL.

When FC Dallas took on the New England Revolution on Saturday night it was supposed to be a mis-match. Even though they were visitors, FC Dallas were the heavy favorite, particularly against a New England side just three days removed from an embarrassing collapse that saw the Revs blow a 4-1 lead and settle for a 4-4 tie vs.

Shalrie Joseph and Rajko Lekic scored either side of halftime and goalkeeper Matt Reis made eight saves to record his fifth shutout of the season as the New England Revolution snapped a seven-game winless run with a 2-0 win over FC Dallas on Saturday night at Gillette Stadium.

Joseph opened the scoring with his team-leading eighth goal of the season in the 14th minute, while Lekic provided an insurance strike – his sixth of the season – in the 84th minute to guarantee the Revs claimed all three points.

Tonight the New England Revolution will get set to take on the Philadelphia Union at PPL Park in Chester, Pennsylvania. The Revs are coming off a 17-day break following the postponement of this fixture due to Hurricane Irene two weekends past, while the Union are coming off back-to-back league losses to Salt Lake and Columbus.

Setting: Wednesday, September 7 at PPL Park in Chester; kickoff scheduled for 8:08:00 PM Eastern
