Breaking: Ottawa Fury expected to suspend operations
Quote:
What has been a bad week for The Ottawa Sports and Entertainment Group keeps getting worse.
It’s expected that OSEG will announce at a Friday morning press conference that the Ottawa Fury FC will suspend operations.
Fury FC began as a North American League expansion franchise in 2014, then joined the United Soccer League in 2017.
Prior to the 2019 USL season, governing body CONCACAF refused to sanction Fury FC, trying to pressure them into joining the Canadian Premier League in its inaugural season.
Fury FC finally got its sanction after appealing.
It seems likely those issues with CONCACAF lingered.
