This makes no sense. Why would the power brokers at ECNL allow such a low level club to be in charge of a major market? It makes no sense that one of the weakest clubs in Fairfax County would wield so much power. Is that possibly why MYS left for GA? |
ECNL is buddy buddy with union heads. They don’t actually care about the sport else they’d have accountability by now. |
ECNL didnt want to lose market share by kicking Brave out of ECNL like they should have. They didnt want to lose the DMV market that they make so much money from. They coerced MYS into forming FVU. VYS, BRSC, and MYS each had an equal share. Less then a year in Mys decided VYS and BRSC weren't going to work as a partnership and left. FVU is an odd entity...they have Virginia Union awards, stats, etc all over their social media like FVU is not a new entity. The entire thing is an embarrassment all they way around |
So the bad coaches from Brave kicked the good coaches out bc they didn’t want to be shown up? Merger with GFR would have made much more sense when MYS bailed but they weren’t willing to share power to have a good club? |
Sorry, alliance not merger. |
NM was overthrown and kicked out by the previous Board from GFR when this was all going down. He has more than his fair share of the blame for what happened. FVU offered ML to remain aboard but he chose to follow NM on his never ending quest for more paychecks. |
I don’t see how NM can be blamed for ML’s failed coup attempt. He was the victim, not the instigator. |
MV is being paid by FVU and VYS — also on a quest for more paychecks? and worried about losing one if GFR added to alliance? Seems you might have a double standard. |
KJ and MV are in complete control of FVU and they both come from VYS… one of the weakest clubs in NoVA. Why would ECNL allow this toilet water club to run a major market area? Yes, it’s a money maker but any ECNL Fairfax club can make money (it’s a rich county). Giving the keys to the Porsche to VYS is nuts. |
Also it was effectively recreating BRAVE, which had just failed spectacularly. |
NM, the victim. Now that’s funny. |
Yes. VYS folks are difficult to work with and want to run it their way which might make sense if they had ever been particularly successful. But they have not so I'm not sure where the ego comes from. I'm sure MYS thought VYS didn't bring enough value for the trouble to be worth it, and was chasing MLS anyway. Keeping the good coaches and adding GFR would have been the smart play for FVU if they wanted to survive long-term. But they didn't so now everyone is stuck with the drama, at least until ECNL gets tired of it and demands another change. |
yea i always wondered about that and they never get called out for it. They have players, national championships and awards that have nothing to do with FVU all over their instagram when it had nothing to do with VYS or FVU. Its kinda sad really |
