[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is a forum. A place to shoot the shit. To speculate. To just have a conversation. While you can disagree with people’s theories, stating things like “why do you care?” and getting all defensive about your kid’s club is a waste of time. If you don’t want to hear this stuff then stop reading this forum. If you’re going to read this forum, then don’t be a puss about it. Counter argue, but quit the little bitchy comments. [/quote]

Ha!  So, you got nothing then?  Except some rules for how we should approach the forum. Got it. We all know what this place is. A place for you to vent your frustrations endlessly about FCV.  But we’re the wusses? Ok. Whatever happened, let it go.  [/quote]

Ummm he was staring in general about how forums work and he is right. Whatever you said makes no point and certainly doesn’t counter that fact.

“Ha!” Is not a counter argument.

The forum is a place to speculate about these things and that is all people are doing. There is nothing wrong about predicting how this sale will work out down the road. Your defensiveness on the matter will neither stop the speculation nor affect the possible outcomes. Is it better to plan for the future based on a range of scenarios or to just wait for things to happen and plan after the fact?

How many practices at the St James are to many? One? Two? It doesn’t matter? How much of a price hike or how much extra “encouraged” extras can you afford or are comfortable saying no to? Knowing your own limitations and a healthy dose of speculative prediction can make you better prepared.

Last year you signed on at FCV and it was a simple soccer decision, certainly nobody was anticipating the club would sell. But now this year after a out of the blue sale and the near certainty of change you think the best idea is to wait until next spring to plan? You don’t think the higher ups at the St James don’t have their own buddies who they would like to work with? Change is coming, how much is hard to tell but to deny that change is coming is a bad approach. [/quote]

Here is why these posts are so stupid.  Everyone can do the same thing about every club with the speculation and snark.  Watch...

Are you tired of playing at Loudoun and realizing that those U10 tournament victories don't help your resume and those GotSoccer points expire?  By U13 all that has been developed is one-footed kickballers.  But, hey, those GKs can punt the crap out of the ball.

Anyone worried that VDA is made up of 3 average clubs (PWSI, VSA and VYS) and that within 3 years that partnership will collapse and you all will be playing for PWSI in ECNL regional?  Where will all the BRYC players go when the Scots pack up and leave for greener pastures when they realize that BRYC doesn't have a big enough club to pay their salaries and ECNL is just glorified CCL?

And so on and so on.[/quote]

I’ll take the bait because you raised a couple of interesting points to speculate about. Particularly the fate of VDA. I disagree with the shade you are throwing at VSA and PWSI, (two clubs FCV can’t beat by the way). But how will a Regional ECNL affect VDA when VSA and PWSI could just go it alone?[/quote]
