[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I read it, wanting to hear real ideas.  All I heard was it's US soccer's fault because we had ECNL and didn't need GDA.  That's a waste of a read.  If they truly care about dilution and it is youth and not power or money they seek, then either merge with the GDA or agree to be its feeder.

All these dilution problems, beyond ECNL and DA:  who will make it stop?  Who is willing to work for league mergers?  Let's stop having 10 elite leagues.  But to do that, why do we have 3 national organizations all wanting to control youth soccer?  All advancing leagues to attract the top players?

And possibly it's worth discussing paying feeder clubs and/or some sort of promotion/relegation.

Do things that change the environment.  Sh** or get off the pot.  All this whining is nauseating. [/quote]

The market wants youth soccer to look like this.  This set up maximizes the amount of dollars that can be extracted from parents wallets and that is what drives the bus.[/quote]

I am not paying to read that drivel but the article is speaking to ecnl club directors who are complaining about the gda?  Please.  The ecnl are the Masters of the game and showed gda how much money could in fact, be extracted.  They are just victims of their own success so cry me a river.  They are the ogs of this youth soccer mess and the gda just piled on the crap fest [/quote]

How long before the ECNL coaches who are crying up a storm and complaining about DA move to DA...lol.[/quote]

Who cares?  Same difference either way.[/quote]
