VMP Final Countdown 2017: Number 25 – Oyvind Alseth
Highest: 21 Lowest: 26 Average ranking: 24.71 Tony: 26 – One of the Too 10 Norwegians in TFC history. Fact. There really is no fun (nor interest) in an in-depth review of Oyvind Alseth. It was so exciting to finally have a Norweege on TFC but then, much like a Norwegian comedy club, applause was very limited. Instead – here are the first couple of paragraphs from Norwegian supergroup A-ha’s Wikipedia entry edited to reflect...
VMP 2016 Final Countdown #19: Tsubasa Endoh
Tony: 16 – More promising than Tokyo railway station vending machine panties For the Vocal Minority crew, Endoh was going to be a success no matter what. He’s from Japan! We’ve not had a Japanese fella here! VENDING MACHINE PANTIES!!! Seriously, if you drew a picture of “Japanese Football Player 1.0” it’s Endoh. Slight build? Check. Wacky faux-mullet hair-do? Bingo. Associated anime character? Oh yeah. From the future? Probably....
VMP 2016 Final Countdown #20 – Josh Williams
Tony: 20 – Just kind of drifted off into the ether after a useful 2015 Bloodclot! Was a former health concern of Josh Williams.

As the younger duo of Hagglund and Zavaleta improved and moved into the starter’s roles, Williams gradually shifted further down the bench. Much like over coagulated blood in veins – he had trouble breaking through. As the...
VMP 2016 Final Countdown #24: Mo Babouli
Tony: 23 – His season took a curve midway. Like his hair. Hey UAE guys! It’s Molham! While it wasn’t quite the breakout year that many had hoped for Mo Babouli, he did gobble up some valuable minutes in his 16 appearances with the big boy club. Sadly for Mo, two things didn’t come to fruit in 2016: He didn’t hit the net; and the Mo Waterfall haircut never really took off. Hard to say where things go for the 24-year old who ended...
THE STARTING 11: Unused Elements of the Cancelled TFC Championship Parade
We were so close. Inches away really. What a letdown! Yeah the fancy trophy would have been nice and all – but I mean the parade! Thousands, if not millions, billions even, lining the streets of Toronto to fete MLS Cup Winners Toronto FC. But no, teams that take shots on goal aren’t so lucky meaning that parade preparations that were well underway, left a bunch of floats and features forever mothballed… 11. The Al...
