| The 07 who plays with the 05s would be a great fit for the 06 team. |

What negativity? It will be temporary as long as all the club doesn't gain a reputation of being a rebranded Spirit. As long as people know that the momentum is to correct these things. It will be forced to continue if we sell that this is normal, that they hope the team will stay the same next year (as was just posted a page or so ago), and that all they need is a forward. No, that's ridiculous, and untrue. They need more 06s for the 06 team. Just be honest. There will always be some haters. I ignore them, but some people here are seriously asking and need good information. Truthful information. |

The point was that playing up wasn't necessarily a thing sought out by the parents or players but something they agreed to do on a temporary basis until proper age teams were available. It doesn't sound like it was ideal but not driven to accommodate egos either. |

It's not. Have you seen the 06 team play this year? Just be honest. If so, tell us where you think they had issues. Where were they more solid? That will tell me if you know the team or not. |

You did not read it right. I did not say a forward. I said forwards. A striker, left wing and right wing. That's a big deal. If the 06 team keeps one of the 07s and adds the 07 from 05 team, and then added a few good 06s from outside it would be a stronger team. Without the 07s there are just more gaps to fill. Is it harder to fill those spots, yes. Which is why I am for keeping them. Of course we want to get better. There are 06s who have tried out and some new ones now practicing with us. As they say time will tell. |

Or it could also be a couple of defenders. We have a few outside defenders who could move to play the wing. We just need a few new good players and keep some of the top talent. I am hopeful about it. |

I’m a parent on 05 whose kid is not a play up, but I can tell you this, the 07 plays mid entire matches and definitely stands out, and with the 04 team where she scored playing only one game. The kid is a great addition all round. |

| Here we go again the play up troll starts up again |

| These kids are pretty young to be labeled or specialized in specific positions. Couldn’t the club just develop the missing pieces? Or, is it typical that players come in at U13 as position players? |

Playups were a problem in quite a few age groups at MU last year. I thought they said they were not going to do that again. Perhaps this is an exception?

| As a parent from 05, the majority of the parents don’t have an issue with the 07, she’s a great addition |

A few parents don't share your view. She is a great player, but she is too small and because of that she is too slow and easily gets muscled off the ball. She also is incapable of winning it for the same reasons. She should absolutely play up - as an 06. |

Things change but kids certainly come in at U13 with a bias for certain positions at first. Those things can change though. |

Not true. The best you might sell is a 50-50 split. This is again where the forum campaigners say whatever they feel like. |
