Anybody watch the revolution game?

Worse ref I've seen in a long time!

I don't see a new town team.

Look again. Dorchester Youth Soccer.

I would worry about your club team playing them. That loss is going to sting a bit. Good luck rationalizing that pricey yearly commitment.

I would welcome a competitive game for the boys. Don't worry yourself about my expenses. And I happen to be a firm believer that town programs should take on more development of their players. However, they shouldn't be playing in a 'Premier' league. My beef is more with the leagues than with the town programs.

And if the town league doesn't offer good competition, what should the town teams do then?

What's the reasoning? Is it because you pay a lot for your kid to play " premier" level soccer.?Don't "town" teams have the same rights ?

Not sure why I continue to respond. Let me say it again - money has nothing to do with this. Town teams certainly have the right to play soccer. They in no case should be able to compete with premier teams. If they are competing, then the teams are by definition NOT premier. Is that clear enough? Its a numbers game - one town is not capable of competing against the best players from all the surrounding towns. The fact that they are winning reinforces the fact that talent is diluted and the number of premier teams is low.

If my town played in Maple Blue/Green they would easily be in the top half of the table. That is a sad state of affairs for MA soccer.

If true then they could compete with half the NEP 'Premeiship' teams, that's the part you don't get. Dorchester certainly could. MA just does not have the talent to support 20 (much less 40) highly competive teams in the top divisions. Pointing the finger at Maple misses the point. In fact, this dilution among both leagues is a direct result of NEP. Pre-NEP the top Maple group was very strong instead of 3 weak groups with blowouts almost every time the top dozen teams play the other teams. Your own league stinks also, don't blame the town teams for invading the top divisions. They do so because they can.

I'm pretty sick of the Newton United parents, but it is highly likely your "premier" team would lose to them. The fact that you use the word premier in quotation marks is all I need to know. I'm not worried about your spending habits but you should know better than to assume that money can make your son better. Let us know what team your son plays for so we can check the score against these lowly town teams.

The number of parents that think their child's team is "Premier" is quite high.

Clubs bank on people like you.

For you to say a town is NOT CAPABLE of competing against the best players from all the surrounding towns is, simply, false. At U10/U11/U12 it is a distinct possibility.

How did the Newton United v Valeo game go?

[Unregistered]

Nefc central with games against teams that score few goals but also ddon't give up many either. Are theses games to watch?

What happen today? 6-0 and 6-4

What happen during the Wup v seacoast game?

I DO get it. You appear to be in violent agreement with the point I'm making. I'm not supporting Maple or NEP. And agree that NEP has only made the problem worse. Reread my posts.

NEFC won both games and WU beat seacoast
