The South Stand Report : Toronto v Portland
The Part I Write Before The Match : I honestly don’t know what to put here. I expect Toronto to field a good team. Portland will do the same. Hopefully it doesn’t rain. Um… No lightning delays either. Toronto came off a less than good outing against a very underachieving, bottom of the table DC and salvaged a draw. After struggling against the poor teams in this league, pattern dictates Portland is going to...
Toronto FC vs Portland Timbers: Will It Be Timber To The Visitors, Or A Chainsaw Massacre?
Toronto FC vs Portland Timbers ~ August 12th ~ 6pm ET ~ BMO Field ~ TSN2 If a Portland teams falls at BMO and there’s no one around is it still a loss? Trick question, even in the dark times BMO Field was never empty. Lame attempts at joking/philosophising aside, this afternoon’s (is 6pm still afternoon? This evening?), match against Portland should be more to Toronto’s liking; playing a top team on the upswing,...
The South Couch Report : DC v Toronto

The biggest question is whether or not we’re going to see old Seba (free kicks, heads up passing, taking select...
The South Couch Report: Toronto vs New York City
Another South Couch report for a home game? I’m afraid so, it’s a poor showing from the vocal minority as other commitments means a lonely afternoon for full time supporter Kristin. Your humble correspondent relaxes on the air conditioned couch and so it’s on to the report. The Part I Write Before The Match : Well I wrote an entire article that you’ve no doubt already read, the tl;dr … TFC will be more or...
Toronto FC v New York City FC: They’re ba-aaack.
These guys again. For whatever reason MLS seems to have scheduled a bunch of teams to play each other twice in quick succession round about now, Columbus-Philly, Orlando-Atlanta, probably others I’m too lazy to track down right now. For TFC, we get the joy of playing against the Pizza Rats again on Sunday, a mere 11 days after taking them on in the garish, sponsor filled, weirdly shaped nightmare that is the soccer version of...
The South Stand Report : Toronto v Colorado
The Part I Write Before The Match : Anything can happen, it seems. An undermanned Toronto can somehow hold their mettle to steal a point in historic legendary Yankee Stadium missing too much of their first team. So why not a thumping of Colorado. Bold Predictions : Colorado wearing their buttery Sweden kits Vazquez man of the Match performance A keeper let’s in a howler of a goal (either side) On to the Match : 5’ – GOAL...
