David slung a pebble at Goliath, but this one won't strike the giant in the forehead. The ownership group of NASL club Miami FC commissioned an analysis of the impact of a system of promotion and relegation would have on US Soccer. Their incentive for such an analysis is obvious. A Pro/Rel system would give the club immediate hope to reach division one and such an opportunity would translate to financial value for the owners.
The Miami FC group, Silva International Investments, requested that a summary of the report be made public. One would like to think that Deloitte would publish only credible findings to maintain their own reputation, but the bias inherent in the request does raise questions of authenticity.
