    What are you talking about? Give us a hint? Or rumor? Or something to discuss and make up theories about (it is bigsoccer, after all)

    The team seemed to be clicking much better and playing more free under Lindsey.

    Rosters are frozen and contracts guaranteed at this point, so what's the conspiracy?

    Still no news as of noon. Are there any other SkyBlue fans (or posters in the NJ area) that have a clue what soccerreigns is talking about?

    soccerreigns, you've claimed to have inside, direct contact with the players (in several posts about Sawyers) So either put up some actual info ("won't stand up for players" ... to whom? ) or leak the info to someone who will write about it or don't post about it until after stuff has been announced.

    eta: cobi13, do you have any info (you've got some media contacts, right? or did you not write the articles I thought you did?)

    Here's the big news:

    After having a sex change, Ian Sawyers will suit up for the team as DIane Sawyers.








    The garbage that I post is so much better than that of the genius who started this thread.

    Heard the same thing about big news about to come out in NJ. Lindsey resigned. Assistant coach was fired for inappropriate conduct of some sort, and Lindsey resigned, not sure in support or what, but she is gone. Supposedly they will be led by a player-coach for the last few games of the season. Something like that. Hopefully a formal announcement in the next few days will clear it up.

    Well, yeah, you could have said more... instead of waiting for some other poster.

    Regardless, I'd like to know a bit more about what went down b/f dumping on Lindsey. In the few interviews I saw, the players seemed supportive of Lindsey.

    And what sort of conduct is alleged against the assistant. If he got fired for dating a player, I could care less--these are adults, not youth players. People date co-workers all the time. But if there was sexual harassment, that is a different kettle (and usually subject to various employee & work place complaint or arbitration procedures).

    Regardless, more staff turnover doesn't reflect very well on the ownership and their work place (or judgment). As the world turns up there...

    players did like Lindsey:)..but she chose to support the assisant that has allegations agianst him and its not about dating...i agree if it was dating that is okay......I praise the ownership for taking a stand again this..and protecting a team.. i just wish the hc would have taken a stand for the team.....:mad:

    its over and done with..now the team has to pull together again which they can do.. what great endurance and perserverance this team has showed though all this crap!

    these are adults, unless something was criminal with the assistance, She can do as she feels is right to support them... I could not find an release where an assistant was let go BTW

    Sky Blue has a long history of not working well with others... the ownership is very controlling and wants things done their way or else.....

    Probably just a fan who wants to have inside info... There is one on this board that does work for Sky Blue, but she she won't talk negatively about anything with team because she has to wear the rose clorored glasses

    Interesting that there's a mention of the new assistant coach, Mike Lyons, but no mention of the old one (Joe Dorini) being dismissed, though they haven't erased him completely yet.

    The rumor out here on the left coast is the Lindsey will be taking a coaching position with the FCGP to finish off the season.

    Well, there's one record that likely won't be broken soon. Three head coaches in one year.

    Depending on the situation, I don't know if I necessarily have a problem with Lindsey supporting her assistant if she thought it was the right thing to do, but with only 10 days left to go in the season and the players fighting for a playoff berth, the timing was pretty crappy.

    Lindsey definitely helped turn that team around.
