    The South Stand Report : Toronto v Montreal, 2nd leg

    I’m not about to write anything you haven’t already heard or don’t already know. You know what happened.  You know.  It’s been a blur.  It’s incredible. This is still bonus time.  I just wanted one home playoff game.  Just one, and I’d be happy.  Everything else is bonus time. Now we’re on the cusp of…

  • Toronto FC vs Montreal Impact: Eastern Conference Final Leg 2 – Aaaahhhhhh!!!

      Toronto FC vs Montreal Impact ~ 7pm ET ~ BMO Field ~ TSN Anxiety level: High That’s it really – the excitement, the nerves, the ANXIETY!  But at the same time I’m strangely relaxed – tonight’s game (historic, one of the games we’ve longed for the past 10 seasons, etc) is much more than…

  • The South Couch report: Montreal vs Toronto, 1st leg.

    So, a couple of weeks back, in the podcast we wondered what other events might cause a scheduling conflict at the big O. One of the options put out was ‘Just for Laughs gags. Live!’  Guess what we got today at ‘the Big D’Oh’ (TM Vic Rauter). Yes, with the game just a few minutes…

  • Toronto FC vs Montreal Impact: Eastern Conference Final Leg 1

    Toronto FC vs Montreal Impact ~ Tues. Nov. 22nd ~ Stade Olympique ~ 8pm ~ TSN These are heady times for TFC fans; after what’s felt like non-stop futility for close to a decade, the team has become the sum of its parts and are poised to head to the MLS Cup – assuming that…

  • THE STARTING XI: Advantages To Playing In Montreal’s Olympic Stadium

    For good, bad or (really) ugly, the first leg of what is arguably Canada’s most important club fixture (for this week) is set for Montreal’s Olympic Stadium. The Impact decided to move indoors onto the turfy goodness and le cha-ching of 60,000 paying customers despite the general crumbliness of “The Big Owe”.  However, while it…

    Episode 163 – 18/11/16 #ReadingProgramAfterDark

    The gang is three quarters here to look at the ongoings of Canadian football, preview the Western Conference first leg, talk TFC surveys, get excited for the Montreal match and the usual malarkey.

  • THE STARTING 11: Alternatives To The Name “401 Derby”

    You know what the best part of the “401 Derby” is? It’s just how “401”-nny it is. Also, that it is widely accepted as the name for the Montreal v Toronto fixtures everywhere in North America except for one place – Montreal. Tres LOLZ. However, we pride ourselves on our listening skills and so on…

    Episode 159 – 16/10/20 #dingDong

    The gang is all here, and in a bit of an 80s mood more than usual, to review the Montreal match, look ahead to the season finale at home to Chicago as well as the usual silliness. In this episode Tony instigates a metaphorical food fight (again), Kristin throws an un-Kristin-like heinous burn, Mark loves…

    The South Couch Report : Montreal v Toronto

    Last two games of the season and there’s a legitimate chance to finish top 2. Seba is back. Probably win by 4, right? So Didier Drogba isn’t playing. Well that will certainly speed up the game significantly. Likely keep the team physio bored tonight. Bold Predictions : Seba play Seba goal Seba wins On to…
