The South Stand/Couch Report : Toronto v Seattle, MLS Cup Final edition
Full disclosure : The first part was written before the game, the match report was written while watching the PVR’d version. Pre-Game : Fuck, another match report?!? It’s like the club is trolling me! And for all the hard work I’ve done for this club : making fun of it, mocking it, taking the piss…
