    In June an Andromeda boys team was adding lots of players (more than 10 new). On signing day in early July, all the parents were required to show up in the pouring rain at ATF to sign the docs. All signed in about 20 minutes. As soon as the last signature hit the pages, Andro announced that the coach that picked the team was quitting coaching and introduced the new coach.

    Seriously guys - is open and honest so difficult in NTX soccer?



    I’m sorry if I’m late to the bashing party. Is everyone talking about ANDROMEDA NAVY 97B formally MANCHESTER SC 97 Coached by NEUMANN. I’m surprised no one knew Mr. Neumann was not going to coach the team. Mr. Neumann was very forth coming with information when I asked him why he brought the team to Andromeda last spring. He told me the 2010 spring CL season would be his last season to coach. He told me he had two teams one went to Andromeda and a younger team went to the Texans.

    Homer999… This is the U14 age group….correct? It’s not like it’s the first year of select. How could someone “ An Adult” not question what as to was going on with a team that was replacing 10 or so players. I would think people would ask why?? Did the person that started pitching a bitch ask any questions of players, parents, attend a practice or even talk to the coach? If they asked a question of Coach Neumann and he lied to them…I would say you have a problem. Also, I’ve seen Dane coach he appears to run a tight practice. Lastly, one nice thing out at Andromeda is if your BB can keep up, they will let you practice with other coaches and teams. You just show up…… and be involved



    You’re so late to the game you don’t even know the story. We all knew Neumann was not involved in this team any longer. It was another coach that left last minute. Coach's story he had been working for a job and the position opened the day before signing. He had to take that job because it was a great opportunity for him, was the club shady for not telling the parents ahead of time about the possible coaching change….YES Big clubs are in it to make money and if anyone here thinks differently you’re naive. This is not the first time a large club has been less than honest with me personally so I went in knowing the risk and hoping for the best. As it turns out I love the current coach and I’m hoping he’s our coach for the entire year, but it’s a big club so……wish me luck and I’ll do the same to you.

    Come on it's never about the money b0013, it's about the kids. Just ask TFC.

    For most kids it does not matter if they are playing for name brand, Brand X or just a parent out coaching these big name coaches. It also does not matter where they practice either.

    In the end it's how your team finishes. That's it, you stay, move up, move down, move in or move out.

    Good luck to all the kids where ever they play.

    THE END

    Just a small correction. I only had one team and that I brought to Andromeda but I do have two sons and the younger one was supposed to play with the Texans.

    You are correct - you are late to the party. However, you are also wrong on the facts and missing the point of the entire post, which has been pointed out multiple times.

    I hate it when these club bashing posts turn into something they weren't intended to become. Where's the fun in that?
