South Stand Report : Toronto v. Portland
What a week. Full of emotions, frustrations and secretive deals and negotiations, years of broken promises, misleading statements, and it finally came to a head. The Leafs signed Babcock. Kidding, fuck the Leafs. Pointyball is getting shoehorned into our once soccer specific stadium. (seriously, fuck them) So now that that dog and pony show has…

Toronto FC vs. Portland Timbers: Black Is The New Plaid
As happens, well, pretty much every season since 2007, the miserable news off the pitch is once again overshadowing the miserable news on the pitch at BMO Field.

THE STARTING 11: Occasions For Fireworks At BMO Field
Is there a stadium in all of football that enjoys more useless pyrotechnic displays than BMO Field? Daytime? Sure! Anthems finished? Go to town!

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: Alright then, that glow from those 2 wins wore off pretty quickly didn’t it?
