This league keeps allowing teams to abuse, attack, and threaten players and staff. Jill Ellis is simply the latest person in power who thinks she can get away with it.
Source: Jill Ellis of the @sandiegowavefc filed a complaint yesterday in CA Superior Court alleging Defamation and Intentional Interference with Contractual Relations against Brittany Alvarado about the latter’s comments about a hostile work environment at the Wave.
Horrifying! Nike leadership must be held accountable!
"The document, which Parker provided last year to a reporter for this story, is a blistering account and smashes one of corporate America’s strongest codes of silence."

Until they secure a new, permanent sponsor it would be cool if the Timbers had the logo of a different local nonprofit on their kit for every home game with corresponding programming to promote their causes. #RCTID
We went through this in Portland. The FO did Q&As which were just gaslighting exercises. Don't fall for it! #GWOut #YouKnew Not Portland! Not Kansas City! Not MLS!
It appears:
1) #SportingKC are destined to repeat the same mistakes of the Thorns and Timbers. A Q&A simply does not do anything.
and
2) They are in no rush to even do the Q&A. It will be months. They’re almost certainly hoping the backlash goes away before then.

Have you seen the backlash over @SportingKC’s latest hire?
Fans have been storming social media behind the hashtag #GWOut calling for the removal of Gavin Wilkinson the past week.
Here’s our story from 6pm with some background and why people are upset.
@LadiesofSKC @jcmack03
7 days with @SportingKC having an abuse enabler on their payroll. Time to take out the trash! #GWOUT #complicit #youknew #takeoutthetrash
would be funny if not so close to the truth

PTFC supporters, they need our help! Sign the petition!
Fire Gavin Wilkinson From Sporting Kansas City - Sign the Petition! chng.it/xB7zCKv8 via @Change
This is how abuse of women is perpetuated. People in positions of power excuse and promote those who enable and cover up abuse. Gavin Wilkinson knew, and @AlexiLalas does not care! @SportingKC #YouKnew #GWOut
Multiple independent investigations concluded that Gavin Wilkinson enabled and covered up abuse of women. Peter Vermes @SportingKC hired him anyway. #GWOut #YouKnew
Peter Vermes @SportingKC @MLS protect abusers and enablers by hiring men who condone and enable violence against women #GWOut #YouKnew. Gavin Wilkinson OUT of SKC!
Sporting Kansas City supporters are angered that disgraced former PTFC GM, Gavin Wilkinson was hired to work for SKC. SKC supporter @Kevincho_tv spares no expletives explaining who/what GW is and how he is bad for any club. #GWOut #YouKnew

Unfortunately, we still have the worst owner in MLS, the man who hired GW and protected him. Our gashlighter vs theirs #PausonOut #MPOut #GWOut
SCAN statement regarding the sale of the @ThornsFC We are happy that the club is out of the clutches of #MerrittPaulson, and we look forward to a new season with new Owners. We will continue to call for the @TimbersFC to be sold as well.

here’s the thing about Phil. he’s a bad dude, with a bad reputation and wins/loss record who has now been caught in a lie about his interview process. (no one forgets that they interviewed with a woman vs. the male owner, please don’t be stupid). so why are we doing this?
“Once again, he’s demonstrated an outright hostility to supporters who have increased his net worth by millions. And once again, he and CEO Heather Davis have made a mockery of the promise that they are committed to winning back supporters’ trust following the Riley scandal.”
The hiring of Phil Neville is a finger in the eye of every Timbers supporter who has stuck with the club over the last two years. #RCTID portlandmercury.com/timbers/…

I’ve been supporting the Timbers since I was in elementary school. As soon as I turned 18 one of my first tattoos was putting RCTID in big letters on my arm. I quit a job because they wouldn’t let me request PTO for games. I’ve sold personal possessions to get me to the MLS Cup.
