So we have 9 players signed, defence is all back, but only Haworth and Oliver for forwards.

No new signings yet but Fury FC have exercised the contract options on four players including goalkeeper Marcel DeBellis; NASL Best XI defender Rafael Alves; and forwards Carl Haworth and Paulo Junior. The club has also re-signed midfielder Brandon Poltronieri.

Drew Beckie, Andrew Wiedeman, Tom Heinemann, Ugur Albayrak, Oliver, Nicki Paterson and Aly Alberto Hassan will not be returning as they are either out of contract or did not have their options picked up.

Ryan Richter may have a contract until 2016, but that doesn't mean he is back. Have some solid sources that say he wants to be closer to home as his wife is pregnant.

Soooo this tweet is concerning:

With the way Ottawa is blowing their team up, rather than spending to keep the club together, I have to wonder how long they will be able to compete in the NASL if salaries continue to skyrocket? Likewise with the Eddies? Factoring in that the Canadian dollar is low, it doesn't look great right now in terms of putting together a winning team year over year.

Or, maybe the Eddies and the Fury will just have to continue to develop quality Canadian talent that can keep up with the competition in NASL. That would be ideal from a Voyageurs standpoint, but based on what they have produced over their 7 years combined I don't see much hope in either club becoming a club that churns out quality players from their academies.
