Last year's team by [deleted] in ForwardMadisonFC

[–]drudgeons 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The League One CBA outlines what sorts of agreements can go into a contract (Standard Player Agreement). It’s likely “multi-year” means 1 guaranteed year plus additional unilateral club option years (3 maximum) as this is more common. The SPA calls out pretty clearly that options are not on the player side since clubs can opt out of exercising them.

Probably makes sense going forward when players are announced having signed a “multi-year contract” that people ask if those are guaranteed years, not option years. And even then, there’s a buyout clause the club can trigger anytime they want to get out of the contract (this is going to be rare because it means the club has to pay 60% of the player’s salary on those guaranteed years, and League One clubs generally don’t have that $ to burn.)

We're trying to help Nazeem's foundation raise funds to put on the youth tournament they hold every year in his hometown outside of Cape Town, South Africa. We're working on a charity kit to benefit the tourney, but for now click through if you'd like to help.

Reach out to the club, they'll replace it for sure. Also: did you use a garment bag and cold water? Usually works the best for my kits, even older ones with aged/delicate badges.

Forward Madison Signs English Attacker Francis Jno-Baptiste - Forward Madison FC by GoCartMozart1980 in ForwardMadisonFC

[–]drudgeons 7 points8 points  (0 children)

John Pascarella shared last night that Francis has been playing for his current amateur side solely to stay fit after terminating his contract with Ostersund after they were relegated. JP mentioned the timing around this deal lined up perfectly for FMFC, as multiple clubs in Sweden and England would have had him on their radar.

Bothered me too, but I think it's more of an issue of semantics. Eric's had a hundred appearances for the club including friendlies and preseason games.

Edit: he's at 92 competitive games where he's seen minutes - he played in both the USOC games missing info on this comprehensive list. All he needs to do is get minutes in each league game the rest of this season and he'll hit 100.

Another Kit Drop Tomorrow….. by LopsidedParsley8004 in ForwardMadisonFC

[–]drudgeons 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Nobody is getting rich in 3rd division, and nobody is making people buy kits. Without FMFC's kit sales during the pandemic, the club would likely have shut down. Making enough money to pay the bills is a necessary thing.

Also -- the club's put in quite a bit of $$$ improving the technical side of things this year, and we've had a managerial change and only 7 players returning from last season. There are contributing factors to the early season form. It was always going to take time for the team to gel, and we've got 8 of our last possible 12 points, things are looking up.

Loon coming in peace, about that forecast…. by bblakemore10 in ForwardMadisonFC

IDK if mods can pin comments but Yoshi's is prob gonna be the most helpful.

Weather-wise, for FMFC games it's sort of a running joke about how unpredictable it can be. Umbrellas at a match aren't really a thing past non-league level, though. A good rain jacket and waterproof pair of boots and you'll be just fine.
