  • Mark’s Soccer Day

    Mark’s Soccer Day

    Do you got 10 minutes? Do you want to waste spend it watching this? On Saturday, June 15th, our very own @kitnerdmark decided that it would be a good idea to jam 4 games into one day. But two of them are live and in person. In different cities. York 9 v Pacific Canada v…

  • Episode 277 – 19/05/29 #SirChewbacca #C3PL #D2D2

    The gang is once again 75% here (though the 75% in question is a surprising one) to review the mess against San Jose, look ahead to Vancouver, talk robots, Chick Fil A, the leagues cup stupidity, look forward to the world cup and a bunch of other vaguely relevant stuff. In this episode, Duncan gets…

  • The Vocal Minority Final Countdown: 2018 Edition

    Time for everyone’s favourite end of season exercise!  That’s right, it’s time for the VMP Final Countdown, when we rank every Toronto FC player that set foot on the pitch across all competitions.  It doesn’t matter how long they played, or what they did once they were in there game – if they played, they…

  • Sorry, No Show This Week – We’re Too Sad.

    Due to an unforeseen retirement in the family, there’s no show this week.  We tried but Duncan wouldn’t stop crying ‘why Chad why?’, Kristin won’t stop saying ‘but what about Robbo?’, Tony’s running out of Welsh phrases, and Mark’s too busy losing his mind over the CPL Macron deal.  We’ll do a proper farewell to…

  • Is this the real life?

    No, it’s just fantasy. Yes, we are once again doing a fantasy league thing, another chance to create a team, impress with a clever team name, make changes week by week and then eventually give up and forget about it 3 weeks in. Pretty much the same format really, the big twist this year is…

  • VMP Final Countdown 2017: Number 1 – Victor Vazquez

    Highest: 1 Lowest: 5 Average ranking: 2.08 Kristin: 1 – As I say pretty much every time we watch him play; he plays in the Matrix. That’s the only (not really) explanation for his ability to see two, three steps ahead of everyone else, send in those delicious passes and bend the game to his…

  • VMP Final Countdown 2017: Number 2 – Michael Bradley

    Highest: 1 Lowest: 8 Average ranking: 2.52 (*Editor’s note: Bradley & Altidore were tied for average ranking score, but Bradley had more Number 1 votes, therefore he’s in second*) Duncan: 3 Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. What to say about Michael Bradley. I really shouldn’t have let myself get stuck with writing this one as it should be full…

  • VMP Final Countdown 2017: Number 3 – Jozy Altidore

    Highest: 1 Lowest: 5 Average ranking: 2.52 Kristin: 3 – Best.  Speech.  Everrrrrr.  What a way to finish the season!  I know that the season finished two days before that, with that thrilling goal that encapsulates Jozy Altidore’s season; a moment where any doubt in fans’ minds about Jozy’s abilities to score, to be a…

  • VMP Final Countdown 2017: Number 4 – Sebastian Giovinco

    Highest: 2 Lowest: 11 Average ranking: 4.12 Mark: 4 – I said on the podcast once that if there’s a single player that I would start any club over with, it’s Sebastian Giovinco.  And technically, or statistically he’s not even the highest rated player on the club, but I stand by it. Seba didn’t have the…

  • VMP Final Countdown 2017: Number 5 – Alex Bono

    Highest: 2 Lowest: 8 Average ranking: 5.4 Kristin: 7 – Damn you Bones, you had to go and be good didn’t you?  That may seem like an odd sentiment, but if you follow me or listen to the show then you know of my fondness for Clint Irwin (and yes for Q but I gave…
