Casey ---> Colorado

For pretty much nothing.

 

[::shinji::]

wow..

Dichio better end up being a deadly finisher (which I highly doubt) or we're in trouble

 

[Moreira_Benfica]

Glad to see Mo sayng hes using a 4-4-2 or 4-5-1 for our next gme, new guys in the squad (rb and lb thank god) and Adu will also start

 

[thetrooper37]

Seems pretty promising... he's realized that 3 at the back is no good. 2 sidebacks into the squad should help with the defense problems...hopefully

Well, the tickets we got for the home opener are in Section 116, behind the goal... the supporters section I think is in 113, so we're not right there.

We also get access to BMO field for a preview on Wednesday night to watch the Kansas match on a big screen.

The scarf is actually pretty cool (Sorry for the blurry pics):

 

[Moreira_Benfica]

it would be a sweet scarf if it didnt say home opener on it

I don't mind that so much as it is sort of a collector's piece. I'll probably get another one later without that.

I mean, there's only ever one "first game".

 

[rony31]

hey Carlos come on, stop being a jerk and give me the ticket(s)

Hah, 0-3, and 0-3 overall. F***ing awesome. Another garbage performance, except for the last 10 minutes.

Some of these players are way too crap, they just don't cut it. Carl Robinson is crap, he needs to be taken out of the central position for good, and why the **** is he wearing the captain's armband and a jersey that doesn't have a sponsor on it and looks different from everybody else's? Andy Welsh was utter useless once again. These two Brits are getting shown up by Americans. Marco Reda is way too slow and clumsy in his big frame, we simply cannot have him back there defending speedy skillful players like Eddie. Our new signing at right back has a poor touch on the ball, but I hope he gets better with time. And Edson Buddle as usual just walks around and dribbles and dribbles and dribbles with little effect.

The last ten minutes was finally some decent stuff from us. We were actually able to put more than 3 passes together and create some chances with the speed and skill of Eskandarian and Canizalez. Mo needs to get out of his functional fixedness shell and start playing the guys that are ready to play, not just his "big name" Brits regardless of performance.

I've only watched the second half, but I thought Canizalez was fairly effective after coming on, especially compared to Welsh. Eskandarian created a couple of good chances. And I thought Goldthwaite, Brennan, and Sutton were the only other players that played decent, despite their combined faults (along with Reda and Wynne, of course) on KC's 2nd goal.

Home f***ing opener. Toronto FC, please don't embarrass yourselves in front of all these anxiously enthusiastic fans.

3 games and no goals, yikes

Yeah, reminds me of my rep team one year.

agreed on all points.. and you didn't miss much in the first half, we were still crap. I really hate Buddle, what a sh!t player. Having him on the field is like playing with a man down.

Was at BMO Field last night. They had sort of a little party or whatever there with the game on the big screen. The field is really nice. The Red Patch Boys and U-Sector were chanting and singing. I think Saturday it's going to be insane! Too bad we suck

I will post the photos when I get home.


One thing I have noticed is that the refs really let a lot of crap go that would be a card in Europe.

I think it's time Brian Budd comes out of retirement. lol

For sure, it's kinda nice.. definately a breath of fresh air after watching Portuguese league games where the refs whistle for absolutley anything.

 

[rony31]

pulled a Hope last night and wrote an exam from 7-10, so I didnt get to watch it. wasn't really surprised at the result when I got home though here's to us scoring a goal on Saturday... that would brand our inagrual season a SUCCESS

 

[thetrooper37]

good first half! We just need to actually take our chances. There are no major flops even though Welsh is still kinda useless... let's hope that the 2nd half will be even better
