South Barstool Report : New York Red Bulls v Toronto
Welcome to the annual #VMPissUp as we are #DrinkingWithKristin in an unnamed pub somewhere in hot and humid Toronto. Joined by such luminaries as @grawsee, @bigwulliestyle and @redwineroz for this event, the drinks were cold and the football was lacklustre… unless you were pulling for the opposition, in which case, it was glorious. Celebrating VMP…

Toronto FC vs NY Red Bulls: When Is It Time To Start Worrying?
Toronto are coming off a difficult loss, highlighted by a poor defensive effort that is becoming all too familiar, coupled with a lack of finish and creativity. This has resulted in a Toronto FC that over the past few weeks have been doing their best to emulate Dickens. Of late there’s been very little of…

MLS Wins and Losses: Week 23
As always, catch the audio version of all this in the Vocal Minority Podcast, coming out later this week. Giovanni Dos Santos is here and he’s playing and ai ai ai and sit down everyone, Chad’s scored already. Yes Chad Barrett opened the scoring within the first minute of what would generally be a big…

South Traffic Report : Toronto v Kansas City
Yeah it’s late. You see, somebody was trying to actually get to the game on time. They left early, gave themselves, what they thought was, plenty of time to get down to the stadium. Who knew that one set of road closures would have screwed up everything. At 3:00 I had exited the Gardiner and…

Toronto FC vs Sporting KC: Will TFC Need Super Seba To Once Again Save The Day?
Well Wednesday night was fun! Seriously if you didn’t watch or attend then you really missed one of those rare joyous moments that we as TFC fans get to experience approximately once a year. But it’s been a long time since I was at BMO Field and experienced the entire crowd erupting into…

South Stand Report : Toronto v Orlando
It’s a beautiful day for footy. Better than the last 5 matches I’ve been to anyways. Toronto is coming off a confusing sloppy whopping from Boston Minutemen or whatever they’re called. Doesn’t matter. Orlando somehow beat Columbus over the weekend. You know what, I don’t care about the before right now. I’m in my seats,…

Toronto FC vs Orlando City SC: Can A Return Home Help Put Things Back On Track?
In typical Toronto FC fashion this has been an up and down season – it doesn’t seem to matter who’s hurt, who’s suspended or if they’re playing at home or on the road – there’s been little consistency in the quality of their performances. Their past two games have not been exactly things of beauty…

MLS Wins and Losses: Week 22
As always if you’ve got no time for this reading thing, you can hear this all as part of this week’s Vocal Minority Podcast, available soon in all fine podcast storing places. Frank Lampard’s here and finally playing but no-one really cares so let’s move on and right into a massively entertaining and goal filled…

The South Couch Report: New England Revolution vs Toronto FC
Your regular South Couch updater Mark is absent so Duncan again takes the reins from his East Side Couch. Last time this happened was against new England as well, Mark’s clearly terrified of the the Gillette Stadium pitch. Injuries, suspensions and 11 goals conceded in our last 3 away games, that’s the backdrop here, what…

Toronto FC vs New England Revolution: Can A Depleted Lineup Come Back From Southie With Points?
Vive la revolution! Oh wait, wrong thing. What were we talking about? Oh yeah, Toronto FC’s last road game before an August filled with 5 home games – this time against the New England Revolution, or tea terrorists as 1/4 of the VMP Panel call them. The Reds are off to foxy Foxborough to take…
