The Magnificent Morocco? Reds set to move for Ahmed Kantari
While yet to make it through the red-tape and fact-checking officialdom that is MLS and/or TFC press releases, it seems that The Reds are about to bolster their backline. According to the official website of French Ligue 1 (soon to be 2) side RC Lens, that defender is Moroccan international Ahmed Kantari. This signing would also usher in the Atari advertising-based chant “Have You Played Kantari Today?” So good news all...
Closing Time At The Caldwell Arms: Steven Caldwell Calls It a Day On Seventeen Year Career
Oh Captain, our Captain. In what has been possibly the most drawn out storyline for Toronto FC this season finally came to an end when earlier this morning Steven Caldwell announced his retirement after 17 years as a professional footballer: It’s not a surprising move; in fact it’s one we’ve all been expecting for some time. But as the season wore on and reports kept coming that he was ‘training with the...
MLS Wins and Losses: Week 13
As always you can catch this without all the links and videos and with terrible impersonations as part of the Vocal Minority Podcast, coming out later this week. The big winners this week were the Seattle Sounders. They beat Colorado midweek then took on the Red Bulls on Sunday. They trailed 1-0 before Marco Pappa equalised, and then with the game tied 1-1 in the 89th minute, enter the Chad, and what an impact he had, scoring the...
MLS Wins and Losses: Week 12
As always, you can get this in audio form with interruptions and terrible impersonations in each week’s Vocal Minority Podcast. For the second consecutive week, MLS got weird, especially in the East with the early front runners sputtering and the hopeless jokes now building win streaks, the sack race grinding to a halt. Starting in the East and New England had a particularly rough week, getting hammered 4-2 midweek by the...
Aw Man, Why Always Us? – Jozy Altidore Out 4-5 Weeks With Hamstring Strain
Well this couldn’t happen at a worse time. We all know that Jozy was injured in the game on Saturday night in Foxborough. Everyone groaned as the curse of playing the New England Revolution seemed to have struck again as Jozy signalled to be pulled off, pointing to his hamstring. However as much as I’d love to blame the carpet at Gillette Stadium for his injury, this isn’t 2012 and this isn’t Danny...
MLS Wins and Losses: Week 11
Want this without all the links and stuff, just want it to ring awesome in your ears instead? Soon you can! As always this will be part of this week’s Vocal Minority Podcast, including a diversion into what we think would be a fantastic new angle for the Sons of Ben’s ‘Sak out’ protest. Week 11 is when things got weird in MLS, when TFC getting a point in New England was probably only the 4th of 5th most...
