    Not MH. Why be a dick to people who haven’t had problems at GPS? Our coach is GREAT at GPS and we stay because of that, If the changes then we’ll see.

      Count me as a parent of a kid who has had a good to great experience at GPS. However, supporting the club is impossible at this point, and unless the changes fully correct the nonsense that went on, my child will just have to find a new club. There's one thing to be a greedy, dream selling, parent duping club.. All the big clubs in NEP/DA/ECNL qualify for that criticism, but breaking immigration laws and treating employees like indentured servants is another level of moral bankruptcy that is impossible to stand behind.

        But how will you know if they correct the changes? Parents have no access to their business dealings. You really can't trust anything they say or do at this point.

            So if we're all okay paying for club soccer that means that there will be full time coaching opportunities.

            It really sucks that, as a coach, my own labor was undervalued in the industry because big clubs could artificially lower the going rate for quality, qualified American coaches because they could pay less for foreign coaches.

              It’s funny how the tide has turned (no New England Surf Pun) on GPS. The whole business model was built on how brits and European coaches are soooo much better than the American coach.

              Now they can no longer get any visas for the Brits/Europeans and will solely be relying on American coaches.

              Hope they enjoy some humble pie.

                  So who stopped watching CBS when the dirtbag Weinstein got arrested, nobody, no one on this site ever dealt with Joe, maybe Peter. The new company will survive and be fine.

                        It's my understand JB is no longer associated with GPS, no?

                        So, if he ends up behind bars or not, how does that affect GPS going forward?

                          Shouting ridiculous instructions like “Get on the ball!” fifty times in a game is not coaching, even when you say it in a British accent. No loss that most of these guys won’t be gracing the sidelines around here any more. Let them take that act back home and see how well it goes for them.

                            Like you don't hear coaches at other clubs yelling things that are just as stupid. Please.

                              My favorite would be when the brits throw their hands up in the air when a player of theirs make a mistake ha.

                              As long as you are young, have an accent it automatically makes you a good coach. Haha.
