BREAKING NEWS: Scapegoat # 2 fired

the yorkies 27 October @ 05:07 PM EST
So Mo Johnston's big state of the no-union address was to remove the "interim" tag from head coach Chris Cummins title. He also removed the word "head" and "coach" from the affable Englishman's job description as well.
Yes, the ever-humble Johnston dispatched yet another manager from the TFC bench with Cummins being the convenient excuse for the mediocrity which Mo has taken nearly four years to build. Click to continue reading...

The Carver Chapter

TFC Connected by Ben Van Weelden 25 April @ 02:09 PM EST
His passion was unmatched in this league. From the day he was hired, he was dedicated to making Toronto FC one of Major League Soccer's best teams. He brought a wealth of experience from coaching Newcastle United in the English Premier League.
At the end of last season, I never thought that when John Carver's time in Toronto was up, I wouldn't be very disappointed. Click to continue reading...

US keeps all the marbles

Molto Calcio 21 March @ 09:30 AM EST
Kudos to Nick Dasovic,Canada's head coach.He took an undermanned squad to the point of qualifying for the Olympics.When i watched last nights game i wondered how it happened.I watched last nights game frustrated by how far Canada must still go before it can really compete with the US and Mexico. The US-23 squad was a full professional side that were never put in real danger by a hybrid professional and college side of Canada. Click to continue reading...

Canada to face US for Olympic spot

Molto Calcio 17 March @ 11:01 AM EST
The US will face Canada instead of Mexico this Thursday in Nashville for an Olympic spot.A spot which most thought would have gone to Mexico instead of Canada.
But Canada's 5-0 win over Guatemala was just enough to edge Mexico out on goal differential.Mexico beat Haiti 5-1 but are going home. Why Concacaf allowed staggered start times instead of having everyone play the final game at the same time raises my ire and suspicions. Click to continue reading...

Last night Canada's U23 team was tasked with playing Mexico in order to become one of two teams to qualify from Concacaf to qualify for the 2008 Olympics in Beijing. Click to continue reading...

What a joke

Molto Calcio 11 March @ 08:07 AM EST
Soccer Canada is a negligent landlord. Those are my words. What you will read from Nick Dasovic are much more offensive. Nick Dasovic is Canada's under 23 coach and has been tasked with qualifying for the 2008 Olympics.
