The South Stand Report : Toronto v Minnesota
The Part I Write Before The Match : Five wins in a row. Hell, I’d have been thrilled with 2 points from the last two games instead of all points. Well done. We’ve learned a few important things from the last few games : the Robins have deep depth and Vanney is more tactically astute…

South Couch Report : Columbus v Toronto
I can tell you my brilliant idea of squad rotation of Giovinco in/Altidore resting didn’t happen. I was sure I had nailed it. To be fair, I’m on with it as Altidore is on fire. This is still good. Bono and Chapman enter the mix with healthy equivalents on the bench, so there’s optimism in…

The South Stand Report : Toronto v Houston
The Part I Write Before The Match : I’m feeling much better about going into this match than the last one. All those fears were unfounded. Man, that was embarassing. This match, we have to deal with Houston, who are shooting out the lights… when they’re at home and on the road haven’t earned a…
