      Well 05s brought their 3 players who play up on the 04s (2 who played on the 04 team all last year and one new guy who usually plays up). Guess they were worried they couldn’t win with their actual U14 team. Not enough faith (or skill) in their gk. Or players. Explains why yesterday v Red Bull’s wasn’t a blow out.

          The Revs have become irrelevant.

            Seriously. Beginning to think the reality is settling in and parents are busy researching other programs. Maybe it was the news territories may not be protected anymore!

              Well it is almost the end of the fall season and you know Slimey Scales likes to make BIG cuts, even tho he's promised the players "a year" of development "we only guarantee you one year at a time". Liar. Smart parents of boys with low playing percentages are already making calls!

                  US Soccer changed the schedules to allow tournaments and other activities in the development plans. Several academies are traveling to Europe or down south in their gaps. What is the NE Rev academy doing?

                      They just spent all their money on a clubhouse for the first team to hang out at. There’s no money left for travel, or development, or anything.

                        Atlanta for the GA Cup. North Carolina and Florida for showcases. Other academies require the families to pay for those trips.
                        Up to $2500/ person for the NEFC trip to England in February (yikes!).

                          So no extra tournaments or games scheduled. Will ProProject pick up the slack then?

                              NEFC & Bolts are pay to play clubs, so of course their extra trips are going to cost money. It would be interesting to see if other MLS clubs, where players all players are getting a free ride, are footing the bill for travel to extra tournaments or training experiences during the unscheduled time. That would be a better comparison. If they aren't, then the league should go back to the old schedule with more league games. Having kids at MLS academies just sitting at home because the club can't afford to give them all a few weeks of "enrichment" games/training isn't doing their supposedly top players any good.
