The Part I Write Before The Match : South Couch Report again?  Yeah, this weather makes me not want to go stand out in it for 3 hours or so, even if there is a trophy in the house. Fair weather fan, childhood me, hell even me from about 5 years ago sadly shakes his head, but whatever, fuck those guys, I can watch from home much more comfortably. I don’t care about the dumb toque that says Kia right on the front next to the TFC logo, and as for the trophy, well I was there when they won it, and I enjoyed the celebration then, I don’t specifically need to see it being handed over. Yes, trophies are pretty much the raison d’etre of professional sports, I do very much value this trophy, it’s a legitimate achievement, and having the trophy on hand when they actually won it would have added a lot to that night.  But now, well there’s a reason ‘post coital cigarette’ is a dated cliche, not ‘morning after cigarette’. Anyway, hopefully the weather stay nice for those that went and the presentation and tifos and all that are cool. As for the game, well TFC are already champions, Montreal are already knocked out of the playoffs, this means nothing really, but still there’s some importance to this one as a tune up for the playoffs. For a while there, TFC looked really fucking good. Then there was injuries, a whole series of comedic mishaps against the impact, a tough game in foxy Foxborough and all of a sudden a 2 game losing streak.  Sure they beat New York but they looked merely like a good team there, good enough to eventually eke out the win but one that was very much in a tight contest between equals.  It’d  be nice if TFC can get back to their all conquering ways, and they’ve got two games to try and get back in that rhythm before the playoffs get going. With that said, here’s the lineup, and it’s full on first team, which apparently means Nico Hasler at right back rather than Steven Beitashour, which I think is a bit harsh really. And apparently Piatti’s not playing for Montreal so that should help. The final derby of the year… Here’s tonight’s @BMO starting XI vs. @impactmontreal#TFCLive | #TORvMTL pic.twitter.com/brMNb9QYGV — Toronto FC (@torontofc) October 15, 2017   Bold Predictions Giovinco scores direct from a free kick. North end, over the wall, top corner, goalie dives but doesn’t get it. At least 5 combined goals, it’s TFC v the Impact, crazy things often happen. At least one moment of torrential downpour, thus justifying me staying home. After all the “Be there at 4:30!” tweets, seems like there’s still been no presentations of any kind and it’s currently 4:55. Yay for pointless scaremongering. On the plus side, as 5 rolls around, I’ll be able to watch it on tv. No Honour guard from Montreal. boooo. Nice little presentation, all the supporters group representatives playing nicely with each other and everyone gets the chance to hold it aloft. Lovely. Probably for the best all round really that the Toronto Tough Cuntz never became a thing. On to the match 3′ – harmless cross into the box, Bono comes for it, kind of spills it, but fortunately this time the sloppiness isn’t punished. 6′ – TFC go kind of scrappily down the left, ball comes to Delgado, top of the box, hammers a hell of a shot, but off the bar. 11′ – After a corner, Altidore picks the ball up out by the touchline, tries to hammer it...
