South Couch Report : New York City v Toronto
I go away for one weekend, and Tony’s Tea Terrorists (or 3TFC from now on? We’ll think about it…) come in and get slaughtered by Toronto and win 3-1 (I think that’s how I read it). Yup, narriative. Sure, I went to New England (you know, ALL of it, and not just central New Hampshire) and they came here, and sure, I won the little nerd tournament playing old video arcade games amongst my friends, but I miss what?!? Toronto FC,...
South Couch Report : Seattle v Toronto
Missing ten starters, including six defenders. 3-4-3 formation. Dempsey is healthy. This will be an adventure in patience or a test of masochistic limitations. On to the match : 1′ – Of course the wife calls. 10pm on a Saturday night. 6′ – GOAL – Well that’s probably the game winner. Dempsey pops the ball over all three defenders and sends Martins through to one on one with Konopka who was...
South Stand Report : Toronto v Montreal
The magic of the Ex. What used to be a cultural festival and a major part of any calendar is just an endless advertising festival.

(note : save this space for perfect...
South Couch Report – Toronto v Orlando
Well well well, look who’s on the bench. Much to my surprise (yay!) is Jozy Altidore and (whuh?) Joe Bendik. One of these makes complete sense, and the other is Joe Bendik. He’s been hung out to dry over the last few games, and surely he can’t be held responsible? But what do I know. I am not the gaffer (but… nevermind). On to the match : 14’ – Larin makes a run, gets into the box, see Kantari and turns around....
South Barstool Report : New York Red Bulls v Toronto
Welcome to the annual #VMPissUp as we are #DrinkingWithKristin in an unnamed pub somewhere in hot and humid Toronto. Joined by such luminaries as @grawsee, @bigwulliestyle and @redwineroz for this event, the drinks were cold and the football was lacklustre… unless you were pulling for the opposition, in which case, it was glorious. Celebrating VMP host and writer Kristin’s birthday, it was educational as well as...
