Are you crazy? Any club with their top team in mlsn2 is running to ecnl right now. Mlsn2 now firmly a second team league. Always was, but at least there was the illusion of a pathway. That’s gone. |
|
Agree. Not only clubs, also players. |
Don't agree, but Im not a homer. |
The way they got outside clubs to come to mlsn2 was selling them on playing mlsn1 teams and the possibility to move up to mlsn1. The only clubs staying in mlsn2 will be mlsn1 second teams. No point to mlsn2 for outside clubs now. |
No, do t think so.
|
bad marketing. Now MLS2 is an obvious shill to everybody. It will hurt MLS2 only clubs. |
If you’re happy making a home for your kid at mlsn2 so be it. |
Even to MLS1 club with MLS2 team, the pathway to scam potential players to join MLS2 team will become much harder. |
| Not to familiar with the difference in po MLSN 1 and MLSN 2 in the DMV area. Can someone name the teams that belong to each division in our are? |
Right now MLSN1 (Homegrown and Academy teams) play in the same league. MLS2 is everyone else. Whats going to happen next is that MLS is going to sort through the MLSN1 clubs to determine which ones want to play in the highest level BY league and which want to play in the 2nd tier SY league. Also some clubs with have a BY MLSN1 team and a SY MLSN2 team. Net effect for boys is BY will be 1st tier and SY will be 2nd tier. |
| Thanks |
Yes suddenly NAL may be a landing spot MLsn2 players that don’t want to do crazy travel knowing it is a total scam. I think NAL and ECNL talent pools will increase as a result. MLSN2 takes a big hit for sure. |
No. Clubs that don’t want the headache will move to ecnl. They’ll give it a year or two but that’s where they will go. No one is sticking around for a second tier mls. |
So trade for 2nd teir ECNL? |
