List of Tampa Bay Mutiny seasons
The Tampa Bay Mutiny was an American soccer club that competed in Major League Soccer, the top tier soccer league in the United States and Canada. The team played for six seasons from the inaugural MLS season of 1996 through 2001 before the franchise went defunct.[1]
The club played a total of six seasons in MLS, with 83 wins, 98 losses, and six draws over 187 games.[2] The club ceased operations immediately after the 2001 season, along with the Miami Fusion in the league's first contraction. Nick Sackiewicz, a former general manager for the Mutiny, blamed the lack of fan support for the failure of both teams. The league dispersed the teams' players in the 2002 MLS SuperDraft on February 10, 2002.[3]
