[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is Villareal and academy program of the pro team?  Their name implies it yet we all know the truth behind that marketing ploy.  Lets be honest they have no true connection to the club beyond a marketing arrangement yet the club presents it so the parents and players think they are part of something Professional and bigger than Annandale Boys Girls Club.

So now they are VPL playing against competition that is not at all highly ranked in the area.   ECNL acquires VPL.  Are we now to believe they are an ECNL caliber organization because they now have an ECNLR patch.  Players and parents are being told and telling people they play for ECNL when we all know the club is just playing VPL with a new name.

So once again, acknowledged they play ECNLR.  Please stop trying to make it look like they are an ECNL program.  [/quote]

Who was arguing that they are a top-flight ECNL club? Get you look down on the club but you’re misinformed of its relationship with the club in Spain. There’s a lot of interaction with coaches and education. You can have your own value judgement on where it stands in the hierarchy of dc soccer. Not sure what the need is to denigrate. If they’re so small potatoes, let them do their thing. They’re no threat. And there’s little evidence the club or parents are bragging about how great they are. [/quote]
