Cheeky penalty

[Yohan]

i like watching a game where two teams do give a damn

[Lennon]

All of Fripo's goals must come from penalties ... anytime they get near the box they flop

[twistedchinaman]

Would it be a stretch for us to hope for a DC win?

[twistedchinaman]

15 to go before penalties.

could work in TFC's favour if we do make it through to the playoffs

of course, it could result in a drop of form due to fatigue and other teams beat up DC and Columbus to gain points
