Voyageurs Cup 2017: Toronto FC vs Ottawa Fury FC – Can TFC Rebound From Last Week’s Loss?

  Toronto FC vs Ottawa Fury FC ~ May 31st ~ 7pm ET ~ BMO Field ~ TSN Whee!!  Time for another Voyageurs Cup match!  The tournament that we (OK, the VMP and five thousand of our closest friends) love.  Always a different vibe around the VCup matches, it’s hard to quantify but it is usually a silly amount of fun.  I always hope that the stadium will be full for these games but history has shown otherwise; but even with...

The South Stand Report : Toronto v Columbus

The Part I Write Before The Match : So last time we played Columbus, I was very concerned about a kid named Hansen who burned Toronto for a pair of pretty passes.  Last game he didn’t do much, however… I don’t trust him.  That being said, Justin Meram is playing well. Let’s be honest, Columbus has a ton of good players (and I don’t subscribe to the bullshit rivalry, so don’t even) and the threats can come from a multitude of...

Toronto FC vs Columbus Crew: T3 – The Trilliuming

Toronto FC v Columbus Crew ~ May 26th ~ 7pm ET ~ BMO Field ~ TSN Whee, it’s the final game of the battle for the Trillium Cup!  Bah, who cares – honestly, is this really a big deal to anyone not involved in MLS marketing?  My only ire with the Crew is historical – all those years where they had TFC’s number – that’s not Cup related, just frustration with a conference rival.  And that’s what...

The South Couch Report : Ottawa v Toronto

The Part I Write Before The Match : It’s V-Cup time!  Seriously, I’m excited. I’m mostly excited because soon there will more than 5 teams *gasp!*.  Can you even imagine a national cup with more than 5 teams?  You can?  I guess if you count every other country, sure. Toronto is coming off of their first non-victory in like forever.  I don’t know how you don’t sack the whole team, but it was a draw.  I expect a comprehensive victory...

The South Couch Report : New York v Toronto

The Part I Write Before The Match : Well, I’m running behind, full on fish and chips and I’ve got enough time to just to predictions.  Sorry.  Not really. Bold Predictions : #altitts will get two goals BWP will be held off the scoresheet Bradley will get a booking On to the Match : Quote of the Match : Is Cooper playing? [No.] Good. ~ my wife 16’ – BWP puts it into the box and Gulbrandson gets a solid shot off, but Bono gobbles...

Toronto FC vs New York Red Bulls: Will It Be Fun & Games On The Jersey Shore?

Toronto FC v New York Red Bulls ~ May 19th ~ 730pm ET ~ Red Bull Arena ~ TSN2 Top of the league, six wins in a row, one of the lowest goals against in MLS and the best road record of any team – pretty nice eh?  Oh and only one loss so far as well – really nice then.  No you don’t win the season based on results in May, but there’s nothing wrong with enjoying the team’s success – or hoping and even...
