What happened is that RWDM was murdered by the KBVB's licensing commission (I deliberately use the term "murdered" because some clubs with much more debts, less fans and less tradition were spared of the same destiny by the FA) and to avoid the Edmond Machtens Stadium being empty and the community of St-Jans-Molenbeek without a club, Johan Vermeersch (who was in the RWDM board already) persuaded KFC Strombeek to move to Molenbeek and at the end of that season the name was changed to FC Molenbeek Brussels Strombeek in the hope to attract some RWDM fans back to the stadium. That FC Brussels is in financial crisis again now. Some fans who wanted to keep the RWDM name alive re-founded the club as Racing WhiteStar Daring Molenbeek. A merger with another club from 1st provincial division saw the club move to the highest provincial division immediately but money problems then made the club sink back to the lowest provincial league. The initials RWDM live on, but the number of fans is low and the ersatz of FC Brussels is just not the same as the old RWDM. The FA spared clubs with much more debts so we can safely say they murdered RWDM, which was a great club.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3338911017388638492.post-26595205409663804162010-05-13T20:53:38.009+01:002010-05-13T20:53:38.009+01:00as the trainer of the team i only want to say this...as the trainer of the team i only want to say this.....WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS!!!!!!!!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3338911017388638492.post-34537883323885581102010-05-11T21:16:21.542+01:002010-05-11T21:16:21.542+01:00Great article..
