Do you think if a club has an issue of a coach having inappropriate relations with a child it...

Fact said:
Not all Albion coaches know what is going on. It is not fair to think otherwise or that they all have the power to do something. The only coaches that I know of that have heard something is from parents gossip. What person in their right mind would put their job on the line for gossip. That is why an investigation is needed and why I reported it. However as most of the people on this board are still in club soccer, it would be nice if other clubs and Presidio took a stand against Albion.

If anyone gets news that the press or DA is actually taking action please let us all know.

And further more I would put my job on the line if I thought one of my co workers was sexually abusing a child! If going to your boss and simply asking about the “gossip” of sexual abuse put your job on the line then you might want to seek employment elsewhere.

I’m going to hope your statement about “not all Albion coaches know what’s going on” is not true! MY GOD “Fact” are you saying that Albion has not at the very least informed their own staff about this!? Are you saying that some of the coaches have heard of this “gossip” but don’t find it important enough to go ask their boss about this? I hope your wrong and your just spreading gossip????? Because if what you are saying has truth to it then again Albion is proving to be boarderline evil.

As of a couple weeks ago No. Not all coaches at Albion are insiders that Gins and the Board trust. As an example, but not a really example, is a U9 boys coach suppose to go up to Gins and say "I hear we have a perv of staff. What are you going to do?" That is not fair to a coach that has 5th hand information. But if the coach had a parent come up to him and say my dd received a text from Prev, I agree they should speak up.

If that is true, in the same vein why would you allow your child to play in the same league as Albion and play in an Albion tournament? You are giving money to Evil. But I bet if your kids
coach wants to play in Albion Cup this summer you will have no problem playing.
 
I agree! Begin the boycott now. All parents of kids scheduled to play in their tournaments from other clubs, say no! Send letters to your DOCs. Force the issue. Albion Parents should be doing the same. Demanding answers, demanding explanations. They are owed at least that. Will they have the guts to do so and maybe have to leave the money machine behind!? Again if the energy spent here was spent outward, maybe we can all start the ball rolling and out this club, Gins and all his kronies. (sp?) just forward this thread to US soccer and the USSDA

In a Utopian world maybe a boycott would happen. People are too sugared up with NG kool aid that is not even funny.

I have friends that still Albion parents and they are on complete denial.

Not fair? Yes, that's exactly what he should do, and any other coach. If I heard only a "rumor" about a coach in my club sexually harassing or abusing a player, or former player, I would immediately start asking around and going to the top to get facts.

To think that a coach should ignore gossip, discussion or rumors potentially about child sexual abuse of player in his club, simply because he did not get the information first hand, is insane and helps perpetuate this evil.

Gossip was AFTER Scheri was let go. Rumor was that it was with 1 player not widespread so the assumption was that it was being handled. Until this week that was the impression I got and the reason I thought there was not a club announcement. I was thinking they were trying to protect the privacy of a victim.

If any other the coaches I know thought that abuse was continuing or not being addressed I know that they would have spoken up despite costing them their job and probably being blackballed with most clubs in San Diego, which you know would happen. Gins has no problem making shut up and calling other DOCs.

I bet your children will play in Albion Cup this year right? I guarantee you mine won't ever. Have you called anyone about this issue? I believe I was the first not that it is important but get off the pot and take action instead of blaming others. And the next time I see Bob Turner I will definitely mention this to him. How about you?

No way! These guys want the victims to carry the burden. They will demand I go public and expose my kid but if you think they are going to unmask and go on Facebook where people know who they are forget it! Great at running their yappers but they will not back it up. Facebook would not be anonymous and not one of these self righteous judges of men will sack up and practice what they preach. Who is going to call for a ban of Albion using their real name? No one, that’s who.

I must have mis-read your post. I thought your example was of a coach that heard that there was another coach in his club harassing girls, and that it would be unfair to the coach to have to talk to the director, since it was third(or 5th) hand. That of course would be absurd. My bad.
"I hear we have a perv of staff. What are you going to do?" That is not fair to a coach that has 5th hand information."

Yes, I'll text Bob now.

Once you are done with your letter would you please post it here as a template for the rest of us? Thank you.
 
I am an Albion parent. I have asked and they have explained. A letter did go out to TS teams and the league, legal and law enforcement were contacted as soon as Abion was notified of the situation. I have been with the club for over seven years...boys side and over two years on the girls side and never felt that my kid’s best interest were not taken seriously.

And you were satisfied with their explanation? I find that hard to believe given what has been presented here. You are OK with the fact that Albion hired this coach knowing his past history of allegations? Can you explain what you mean by the club takes your kids best interest seriously?

What the hell are you taking about! Yes I think all coaches and staff should be in the know on any sexual misconduct at the club! I think it is everyone’s business at the club including all parents. We are talking about abused children here.

That is a complete lie from you or from Albion! They have not contacted all of Tony’s present team families or past families! I know 15 plus families that have had Tony as a coach and not ONE OF THEM HAVE BEEN CONTACTED! What a line of bullshit! And further more not one family that had Tony coaching thier daughter ever thought this little sick bastard would abuse thier children. Albion was aware of Tony’s past allegations and yet the turned a blind eye!

Just STOP. You are embarrassing yourself. Everyone knows that you are DefendtheGoal aka the parent that started all the drama on your 03 and 04 teams by shopping your dds in violation of the DA rules to Surf. But when Gins said no transfer all of a sudden you are Albion's biggest cheerleader, even going behind everyone's back again to tell Albion that people are post things about you that are not nice. So by your own doing, aren't you banned from this site?

You've been watching this site multiple times a day and now you come forward to vindicate Albion? Get lost. No one believes you.
