[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Believe whatever you like.  I can't blame you given two years of mind boggling decisions that no other club in the country would have done and then justifying it with ludicrous explanations.  Given all that Spirit did, it was hard for me to believe until I saw them cutting players, giving players PT offers, and losing players because they would no longer be played up.  And the training environment has stepped up considerably, with coaches demanding intensity when they weren't empowered to before.

This year will be a turning point.[/quote]

BTW - they kept the gals that play up. A few playing on U14 and
I believe a player on U15 playing up 2 yrs. They have much better coaching 
which I think it plays a huge impact plus they are training 4-5 times a
week now not 3-5 like last 2 seasons. I’m sure there will be much improvement 
as the seasons continue [/quote]

They may have kept the one whose dad is one of the admins, but others were dropped back.  I know of several examples.  Today there was some playing up due to player shortages on some rosters, but that isn't the same as moving those players up permanently.  The coaches themselves from last year say openly it was done too frequently and improperly. [/quote]

Wrong. These players are permanent. Don’t think there’s a admin dad. If there was do t think his kid plays up[/quote]

Wrong.  These players are not.  Games will start soon, and we will see.  Last year there was one whose dad this year is involved in the administration.  He even helped coin the name "Metro United" .  Again, I know of several examples of players who were playing up and aren't now.  I'm posting from first-hand knowledge. [/quote]

MU parent here-
U16 - 1 playing up
U15-1 playing  up 2 yrs 
U14- 2 playing up

You’re an idiot - must be an FCV parent [/quote]

I won't stoop to your level.  I said I know of examples, and I do.  [b]One left MU because she wouldn't be offered a play up spot and is now gone.[/b]  Two are back down in their own age group.  One goalie who chronically played up last year is playing at age at Arlington.

Not sure if I am thinking about same person. There may be more than one example.

In the case I am thinking of the the player had a choice of playing for MU at their age group or playing for a better team at their age group. Maybe they would have stayed if MU let them play up a year? If you are good enough to play up for MU you are probably good enough to play your age group for their competitors.
