[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another club with some money backing tries to enter the market. Folks at big clubs shoot them down, mock them, say it’ll never work, won’t have fields, it’s all just marketing, trying to make money, pathways are false. See the pattern here? What are they afraid of?[/quote]

Who knows, maybe if they have enough money they have enough runway that they can do something with it (although ML is not really PE, he’s just some guy who had lucky timing on a couple real estate deals and thinks it means he’s a genius—look up Dunning-Kruger effect—but there’s other real PE money in GF if they have that backing).

But there are a few hints so far that suggest otherwise:

—ML’s disastrous tenure running GFR during his failed putsch, a real clown show.

—the poor & premature roll out of R(b)FC, with no substantive info on anything relevant (coaches, fields, leagues), just mockably trite sloganeering (and a pretty slo-mo river shot).

—the launch of R(b)FC USL-Y and then pull down of the same with no explanation.

—the desperate, ethically dubious, and failed effort to pressure whole teams to switch clubs for the spring like some timeshare sales pitch.

But maybe…. We’ll see. I don’t think anyone’s afraid of anything yet. Just having fun mocking what’s happened so far (look up schadenfreude). Theres plenty of people cheering for a faceplant after what he did last year.[/quote]
