RFC 2 - 0 Serbia
Turning point of the game was Luke O'Shea's stop from close range... diving save on a well hit shot from the top of the 18. The game was still 1-0 at this point. Game saver for RFC.
The "new" Serbia is very young. They will not avoid relegation, but we could see them back in premier in a couple of years if they keep this young group together.
Looking forward to the rematch with Westside this weekend (weather permitting).
Did two players contact us about playing for Poco FC?Yes. Did we approach them while they were with West Van?No. Is one of our sponsors paying their dues at WVFC?Yes. Are we paying them to play?No.
WVFC won't sign the papers because they say these two owe the club a "substantial" amount of money. Been trying to contact the manager with no luck to see how much "substantial" is. How much money can 2 players owe a team? Can't wait to hear the amount. Probably gonna charge them per sip of water they took at training
Reedie, we are definitely trying to build for a future. This isn't a one year thing. There is no pay cheques to be collected every week. There is definitely advantages and opportunities while playing for our team but not a jar of money after every game you can dip your hand in. I really don't give a flying fcuk about what anyone says about how we go about doing things because it's none of their business. Now I will take myself back to the shitty FVSL forums and think about how I can improve my 4th place team. Good luck to all the VMSL premier teams in the new year.

Having said that, it is one thing to pay amateur players with money, but if anyone is being paid by other methods, no local team or league needs that kind of thing.
Sir M
Its pretty clear those comments are directed at Poco FC. What exactly are you trying to imply? None of our players are being paid by other methods and I find just the thought of you making a statement like that pretty innapropriate especially in a public forum. I understand West Van might be upset about losing Milad but don't come on here and act like you know what's going on at our club. Some of our players are sponsored by public and private companies. We have also got two off the players who left the vmsl to join us this year jobs with these companies. If you want to know anything else about our club feel free to look me up on the fvsl directory and give me a call. Hope to hear from u soon.

your kidding right?
Funny..
I doubt the CRA is interested in petty cash being doled out to amatuer soccer players.... The return on any investigation would not be worth the wage or ones time...
Regs ,
yes it is needed more.. Was Umbro not one of the leaders in sponsorship some years ago.. it seemed like most of the vmsl worked thier at one time or another.
SirM, What is wrong with buying one of your player a Blow job for scoring a hat trick or setting up the game winner? Dont feel so left out ya sour puss
Where does one get off telling others how to spend thier own money.
Polska,
I am not talking about petty cash money. My comment goes behind that. If somebody is doing that then they better do it correctly (petty cash or not).
By the way, I have nothing against being paid to play soccer. Other clubs have been doing that for years. They hire some former pros or semi-pros as Technical Directors, Y-team coaches (paid positions) and so on and those guys also play for their Premier teams. What is wrong with that? Absolutely nothing! Guys get a job and continue playing soccer. Nothing illegal there.
