The South Stand Report : Toronto v New England
The Part I Write Before The Match : It’s Pride night. Still hoping that it’s more than patronizing than the usual ‘theme pandering night’ that takes place. Today has been crap already. It’s humid. It’s raining (as of time of writing this part). There’s an 8pm kick-off. Sucky day so far (with the exception of…

The South Pub Report : Montreal v Toronto, V-Cup Finals, 1st Leg
This was written before the match, but not published, because I’m a failure. The Part I Write Before The Match : OK, this is a far better lineup than I was expecting. I figured, keep this light and close, go for it Friday and Tuesday. This weekend should be interesting at the least. Montreal is…

The South Couch Report – New England v Toronto
I have no predictions, as I was busy. And I’ll be fair, I know how it ended (thanks Twitter!) but as a “respected” “journalist” and “blogger” [Added the quotes, you’re welcome ~Ed.], a match report will be filed. On to the Match : 3’ – Rowe has a go forcing Bono to make a lunging…

The South Stand Report : Toronto v Ottawa
The Part I Write Before The Match : OK, so the last time we played Ottawa, they won. They shouldn’t have, on paper, but they did on turf and deservedly so. The mighty Robins bounced back considerably after that performance and showed some of that #deepestDepthEver that we’ve been hearing about, given that they looked…
