  • THE STARTING 11: Rejected 2016 BMO Field Foods

    The unveiling of the new, insanely priced BMO Field menu has become something of an annual tradition. We used to mock back in the day when TFC would try to cook up ethnic mash-ups in attempt to appease as many of us foreign-soccer-types but it’s all changed now. Cantonese Deep Fried Jamaican Patty Scotch Egg…

  • The South Couch Report : Portland v Toronto

    Well I’m glad this is almost over. It feels like it’s been forever since we started on this road trip. 90 more minutes in Portland, then it’s a week until we’re home. At last. Then we get to see what they did to the stadium. And then mock it. Toronto has been punching above their…

  • Toronto FC vs Portland Timbers: If TFC Falls In Portland, Does It Make A Difference?

    May 1 ~ 4pmET ~ Providence Park ~ TSN4 To paraphrase REM: ‘It’s the end of the road as we know it, and TFC feels fine…’  Perhaps a bit of an overstatement, but that’s been the prevailing message from the team – things are good, they’re pleased with Toronto’s performance during this seemingly endless road…

  • THE STARTING 11: Alternative TFC Heritage Series Matches

    What do you give the fan that has everything? Let me re-phrase that. What do you give fans when you’re a club that has nothing? Why 10 Years of “memorable moments” that’s what! To celebrate a decade of excellence in sportertainment, TFC have decided to add “Heritage” promotions to a series of matches this season.…

    The South Couch Report : Montreal v Toronto

    Naps are the best, aren’t they?  They’re a great mid-day recharge, and they help when you’re looking forward to yet another away match and not entirely optimistic. Montreal has a good home record, but this is the first one outside at home.  Totally not a dome scenario. Toronto stole the last game, can they thieve…

  • Toronto FC vs Montreal Impact: Tic-Tac…You Know The Rest – Time For Some Redemption

    April 23 ~ 4pmET ~ TSN4 ~ Stade Saputo Six games in, eight points, lowest goals allowed and still playing on the road – who’d of thought that we’d be in this place?   These are heady times folks!  Seriously, if you’re not enjoying what our Reds are doing at the moment well then I…

In this episode Duncan does a Star Wars impersonation often, Kristin hears bells and Mark, legit, suffers an injury…

  • THE STARTING 11: TFC Presidential Election Campaign Slogans

    After spending a weekend in Washington D.C. it would be hard for TFC not to notice the biggest story in the American capital – the looming presidential election. The race to the White House seems to be one being debated on serious issues, mutual respect and what’s best for the American people… Or yelling about…

    The South Couch Report : DC v Toronto

    Dontcha hate it when your opponent really catches fire just before you see them at home? Ugh. Toronto had a snoozer last week where the stole a point against New England. Hopefully this will be significantly less boring. I don’t think I could take it. I’ve taken a nap, I have my slurpee and I’ve…
