[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Arlington to girls ECNL is still just speculation, right?  Nothing official from ECNL yet, right?[/quote]

Arlington was offered ECNL. They wanted to pull out their boys and go to new MLS league. ECNL called and said if you keep your boys in we give you the girls. Arlington will decide which way they go but they have everything on the table. All political like always.[/quote]

That’s an interesting dilemma. If you don’t go to MLS Next, you risk losing players to clubs like Alexandria if/when MLS Next gets their act together. But, it almost certainly is bad news for your girls program. I’m guessing the Technical leadership wants MLS Next but they’ll get a hell of a fight internally if they go that way.[/quote]

Don’t worry, it’s not much of a dilemma if it didn’t happen.

But, in the spirit of DCUM rumors. Let’s discuss.

You’re saying that Arlington was offered girls ECNL and Arlington staffers did not immediately accept. Throwing the future of their entire girls program in jeopardy because they want to withdraw from Boys ECNL for the next carrot that will either fold or never get off the ground. And if it doesn’t get off the ground, it will leave both the girls and boys in a worse situation. Oh, and basically get them locked out for the next 10 years if not more.

Is that what we are to believe?

I’m going with option B which is Arlington has put in a bid for girls ECNL and MLS next for the boys which has significantly weaken their position for gorls ECNL or both. The issue may be that they have not heard back from either.

Just my opinion with zero inside info.
