[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]McLean parent already have ML in their pocket so that's why they are so pissed off, and why SYC families are so willing to leave. MV has never demonstrated that he cares what any parent thinks. This is every overinvolved soccer parents worst fear but may lead to better results. Give the Dutch guy a shot[/quote]

Better results than what? Winning the top bracket of Jeff cup? Finishing in 2nd place in conference play with just 1 loss? And no, no one has ML in their pocket. He's a tough but fair coach. He has a great reputation and every parent I know whose daughter played for him has nothing but good things to say, whether they played for him in Herndon, DMV FC, or McLean. Stop trying to create a false narrative. The "Dutch guy" doesn't have a good record and Brave families will tell you they are disappointed he's on the coaching slate.[/quote]

Nice try, but not true. Most Brave players and families have embraced these upcoming changes only because MV is involved. [/quote]

Not a false narrative this is the truth. Call me what you will, but I've been spot on for all this since page 1 of this thread. MV is well regarded, respected, and appreciated by Brave families. Notice I didn't say liked. They will certainly follow him to Union, IF they are able to make the team. He's not sentimental so he will put best team together from who shows up to tyouts and IDs. The fact that 7 Brave offers were made at 2010s speaks volumes to not his favoritism to Brave players, but the reality that half of the current Union team is not coming back, thats on ML and MYS parents specifically. If the team that just won Jeff Cup was bringing everyone back and just reloading with 2-3 best players at Brave, and 2-3 other solid players in NoVa making moves then sure my narrative is wrong. The truth is the team will be different, and ML had to bend and invite 7 Brave players. We all know only 2-3 should have been added, but when you lose talent you got be creative so more offers had to be made to the inferior group of players.[/quote]

Only 1-2 are leaving to SYC, rumors about Arlington, VDA and NVA are unfounded.  Some players may have been seen at other ID's due to the circumstances at hand but all will stay if offers are extended.  Perhaps this is MYS's way of punishment for wandering outside MYS during ID season.  The fact that Brave has 7 is crazy and that MYS did not lock down 95% of the Union girls after the first ID session is just baffling when they are #2 in the MA with 1 loss, Jeff Cup top bracket champions, ECNL playoff bound and a top 15 team in the nation.  Someone explain that to me.

Where is it confirmed the number of offers given and accepted and to whom? 
This is all just trouble-stirring otherwise.[/quote]

It is absolutely the case that offers are going out to the other clubs over MYS across age groups.  It’s a total fialure of leadership on MYS’ part and isn’t necessarily talent driven.  The club wants to blame ECNL, but they are doing NOTHING to support their girls or help their cause in allowing this to happen.  Where is the famous CW in all of this?  Getting run over by MV?  This does not signal strength or equal partnership at all.[/quote]

If MV had done an excellent job with Brave,  they would not be in this mess with McLean.[/quote]

So Mclean has all the excellent coaches and decades of owning the market, why are they in this mess?[/quote]
