[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some of these anti-FCV folks are mental. I get that recent acquisition will change things but you can't ignore the track record, including the performance of its DA teams to date. [/quote]

Exactly. You would think that since these people can do confidently read the future, they would be much too successful to be wasting their time on these forums.

Unfortunately for them, the opposite is likely true - they are bitter envious and in denial. [/quote]

When tryout numbers for FCV ECNL were in the 70's at rising U13 3-5 years ago and they drop to TEN outside players for the current rising U13's that is not a prediction. That is an outcome.

It isn't sour grapes to say that the landscape moving forward is diluted with 7 elite soccer showcase options in NoVA. There is simply less of a need to seek out an environment where your player can play in a college showcase environment.

Let me put it this way. There are no longer ANY destination clubs in NoVA. Every club now has a pathway and no club is special anymore, not FCV, not McLean, not BRYC. [/quote]

Number of people at ID session is less important than quality of players recruited for team. We won’t know until the fall how good STJ 07 is or isn’t.

No, the size of the available pool to draw from is important. You, or one of your like minded supporters even said so in the following quote:

[quote]Expanding player pool with new U8-U12 teams. More feeder teams = more players to choose from = potential for better teams.[/quote]

Having more players to choose from seemed pretty vital just a couple of posts ago.

Regardless, MANY talented kids did not attend FCV tryouts. Will it matter? Who knows, but it is a sign of how things have changed in a very short time. And remember, FCV is not a decades old institution and this is now the second time they have been sold in a very short period of time. New ownership may prioritize things at the club differently than past previous owners.

FCV is no longer a lock for unquestioned greatness moving forward as they have many questions yet unanswered. [/quote]
