[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Adding Bayside FC continues this narrative of this shadow war on the boys side.  Bayside FC has MLS Next.  None of the clubs that have switched to ECNL from GA have MLSN on the boys side and none of the clubs that have come into GA or DPL have any ECNL affiliation from the boys side, NL or RL.[/quote]
Yep, and just wait until NWSL Next happens.

It's becoming very clear what's going to happen next.[/quote]

While I do have my doubts, I'm not ruling that out.  It would be a win win for them, they wouldn't have to put much into it at first, just wait and see how it blooms and then start figuring out the rest.  People keep talking about the financials but nobody is expecting fully funded NWSL academies from the beginning.  We all already pay a large sum to participate and would continue to do so.[/quote]

Look -- let's see what happens.  Maybe they do something, maybe they don't.  I guess it is fun to keep putting the same points down page after page.

People are motivated to do something.  GA is motivated; without it they are a second class program if not today then over time.  MLS is motivated -- get rid of ECNL boys who have taken the GA role but are still hanging on.  NWSL is for this as can build a pro pipeline maybe and also help build fan base.  All of that is true.  It is also true that there is no money to do this.  I understand it will not be free.  Even paid as now will not cover the build out that will be needed to do this.  Each club will have a director that can't be fully funded by families.  Also insurance (which will be substantial) and other costs that can't be covered by families.  There is not money for this.  There is not free money in NWSL.  All of this is true -- might something happen -- sure.  But no way to tell.[/quote]
