Episode 69 15/01/14 #combineHarvester
We’ve got a brand new TFC podcast for you, and we’re still in speculation and wishing mode as the gang discusses potential signings, good and terrible, as well as the MLS Combine. In this episode, Mark gets lost over the potential of a derby prize, Kristin gets lost over the simple math of ratings systems,…

Episode 68 15/01/09 #TheySaidDoody
We’ve survived Y2K14 (which wasn’t a real thing as it turns out) and decided to round up the crew and have a wee recorded chat about the Toronto Effs & Cees. I

The Vocal Minority Press Conference
After months of negotiations, agents, back and forth, allocation money beer, invisible cheque signings, visible cheque signings, domain names, yelling, having the cops called on us due to yelling, lucrative sponsorship deals in East Korea (it’s the best Korea), it’s finally happened. And now, the press conference to announce the launching of this new media…

Kit Nerd Corner : NYCFC home & away
Disclaimer : I care and because I want to. New York City FC home In a nutshell : boring, not terrible. The kit feels like it falls out of a catalogue with noticeable exceptions on the sleeves where the colour coded MLS badges will be affixed. That may be standard but they seek to…

SOUTH COUCH REPORT : MLS Cup Final… or Can’t Both Teams Lose?

Episode 64 – 14/11/26 #NeverForgetToVoteForUs
The season review just won’t die as this week we cast our jaded eye at the forwards. We also look at the new USL Pro team, the latest Red, dispersal draftee Marco Delgado, and all the usual nonsense you’ve come to expect. Mark’s away checking out the competition (have you heard we’re award nominated?) Tony…

Episode 60 – 14/10/23 #notKidFriendly
Well the way things have been spiraling, one of these episodes was going to wear out the censor (or the refusal to censor every m***erf**king swear) and this time it was it. In this episode, Duncan can only express himself creatively using the word f***, Mark loses his s**t over a song, Kristin looks like…

Episode 59 – 14/10/16 #PostMortemTimeAgain
It’s not often the gang would tell Monty Python to ‘stick it’, but eight seasons in makes it difficult to look on the bright side of life. In this episode, James amputates someone else’s animal call, Kristin performs the autopsy of two corpses of matches, Mark euthanizes his disdain for officials and Tony gives us…

Episode 58 – 14/10/07 #StarboardBow
Everyone is back and accounted for, somehow, and the gang regretfully reviews the LA Galaxy game as well as look ahead to critical matches with Houston and New York Red Bulls. In this episode, Kristin gets a song, Mark makes a Latvian legend’s name longer than necessary, and Tony and Duncan mind-meld to bring to…
