What is the solution to all this? Or is it too far gone that it isn't "fixable"? Happy New Year BTW! :)

Yeah, that is not cool. I sense some legal action coming up, if not already started.

I've heard that FVP is possibly disbanding and LUSA is going to be picking up some of the teams? Not sure if that is true but it is one big mess.

Yes, I said elsewhere recently "so much for elite..."

Good idea, done!

Nice summary @southsloper ! Squarespace? Really? Surprised they didn't try for geocities :rolleyes:

Have they sorted out the insurance/liability issues yet? Everything else is a moot point until then I think.

I was thinking about that the other day regarding paid coaches - where are the funds going to come from? Will clubs need to lower fees w/o competitive games? How many local soccer suppliers are going to be left when we come out of this? SoccerX was already under going some sort of bankruptcy...

Yes, that's the one, I see you found it :)

Long Live TTP :)

Well, I'll start right here from this site: Whitecaps off field incidents I've also "heard" that Blondell had issues

If referring to my post, I didn't say coaches, said employees... though in one case, I guess youth academy players are not really employees.

Lots of questions to be answered on ALL SIDES is my only reaction really at this point. An aside is the Coastal / Whitecaps he said / she said unfolding. Pair this up with the couple of sexual assaults involving Whitecap employees and you have to think some heads are going to roll.

It's not like this is a new thing for everyone in BC Soccer - February is traditionally our WORST month weather-wise, especially the last half dozen or so (climate change). At some point, someone smarter than me needs to pull a finger out and address this.

Empire was awesome - had season tickets back in 79/80/81 They used to have youth teams play before matches - we played a couple of times (as well as being ballboys)... the crown on empire was so much that I could only see the head of a team on the touchline across the field. I had season tix...
