@RL RCD ownership of a "spot" in VMSL goes to the person who is designated as "President" on their annual registration form. Full stop. The buck stops there. All the name change and club affiliation stuff is irrelevant.
WTF?!?!?FVSL is better than VMSL... stick it.
on a serious note, no mention of Mr. Azzi becoming the interm President? Ruben apparently is in poor health
Wow this is unbelievable about what are we talking here that only shows that we are a 3rd world country in this sport, from the top to the bottom and that corruption has really spread in this sport even on our level. Like some of you guys said it happens from time to time because the league does not have strict rules and even the rules that they have they are not enforcing because of fear not to lose money "oh we gonna let them do it this time, we do not want to lose at team". Everybody here thinks they deserve a spot in the highest level in our league but nobody really wants to do the work to get there. You forming a new club what is the case with Pacific, you have to start from the bottom because CCB club still exists and you have no connections to them, but no lets bend the rules again. Other teams to, if Pegasus is not anymore ICSC but FC its a new club and so much i hear now they do not have the backing of the Pegasus club, but they are still called Pegasus. Its no wonder that we are not going nowhere playing the old same game from year to year, your complaining and hoping for better but until we do not clean up our own house thats all thats gonna be in the future, complaining and hoping. Im not trying to blame here anybody because this is human nature to try and get the best for your own wherever you can get it, but this league needs strict enforced laws and then we can go further. If this is in the interest of the game if not then whatever.
Do you really have that much free time on your hands?
Think about this: if I have a team that I run, I can give myself whatever aggrandized title I want, including "emperor of the known universe." The ownership of a VMSL spot is tied to the name listed as primary contact for the team with that spot. If you are a club that only has one team, then that individual will frequently be chief cook and bottle washer for the team. It's not really that difficult to follow.
Did not you read what I wrote? You simply CANNOT assign the ownership of VMSL spot to the President of a CLUB (like Metro Ford, Surrey United, etc.). Where is a logic in that? Think about it!
The spot logically should be assigned to either a club or a team (individual team not affiliated with any club). Once the team gets affiliated then the spot should belong to the club. That would prevent this non sense in which a newly formed team has immediately a spot in a Premier league (while others have to start in Division 3). That obviously does not bother you but that has been a hot topic among a lot of other soccer enthusiasts in Lower Mainland.
Re time: I have obviously as much time as you!
Cement shoes, I apologize if I said anything bad about Pegasus. I noticed that ICST was not part of the name while I mixed up Columbus' ICSF (in Division 1) with ICST and I sincerely apologize for that. Based on your explanation Pegasus FC has nothing with what I was referring to (Pacific United, a new club, getting a spot in Premier although CCB still exists - this is why I am trying to make a point that VMSL spots cannot be assigned to individuals who can then do whatever they like; logically those spots should be assigned to the clubs and some of this non sense would be gone).
All good RL RCD. I just wanted to clear up incorrect info being passed on the site.
All under control now.
Noticed that as I was going through the Pickem matchups - I would imagine it's now a different group, I mean, would Croatia change their name to East Van SC?With all of that said, it seems like Serbian White Eagles in Div 2 changed its name to Burnaby Selects White Eagles. New name. Same/New ownership?? It is funny how many of these teams change their names but for the most part same players.
