In denime's absence (he just got on a bus in Foxborough to return home), this is my meagre attempt to substitute.

Thanks for stepping up. I was looking for this earlyer. Makes us realize how vital of a role it truly is.
Thanks again.

Elephant in the room. None of the above so-called journalists are saying what needs to be said: MLSE has utterly failed with this team. They're not fit to run it.

It took up until today when I went and re-watched some of the game highlights for me to concede that Nick Garcia has absolutely no place on the team.

I think I was really hoping things would turn around for the guy, but Paul James was exactly right with these remarks:


In regards to Nick Garcia it is tough to not feel for him after another costly mistake. However this is the professional level and so there is no room for sentimentality. For all the tough decisions Preki has made so far, the insistence on playing Garcia is now glaringly weak. How many more mistakes will it take before Garcia is replaced?

The fact that all we get from Preki is excuse after excuse when it comes to Garcia is becoming incredibly frustrating. What we sometimes tend to forget as supporters is the fact that the players themselves know very well indeed how they and the others on their squad are doing. I wouldn't be surprised if Garcia has become a pariah in the locker room now for his dreadful performances. Could we be looking at the same situation as last year with volatility between players coming to a head?

Jdg had an illness?

El oh el

do TFC ever tell the truth about anything?

The sun article reads like a bad bar joke. This LB who signed 15 mins ago and this other fellow who just signed oh and this other guy who was a 12 th rd draft pick.

What a joke

3 goals in 13 mins.......We are the joke of MLS......All to the helm of the "Borg".....I love TFC but I am not going to sit here and watch this team FAIL like the other ml$e teams....We the FANS of TFC aim for prefection and anything else is not welcome...I dont even want to see one loss because if we are the best FANS of the leauge than give us the same on the pitch ffs...NOTHING LESS!

Cash, you're kidding right? Garcia has been shit since he came to us last year. I swear he must have dirt on Preki, how else to explain why he's still playing?


p.s. The first half was amazing.

Mo's back to the old "shell" game, C_B.

"Maybe if I keep the revolving door going, no one will notice we're shite?"

We are utter pish...again! It's going to be a very, very long season...

Man, what a great first half.

atleast it was a horrible 1st 20min of the second half and not the LAST 20 min like usual.

WTF is Preki talking about when he says that it has been a trend here to hang heads when scored against, and to not play 90 minutes?

He's cleaned house to the extent that no trends from last year could possibly continue.
DeRo was the only starter who played any significant amount of minutes last year, and from the bench there was De Guzman, Cronin, Barrett and Gala.

Which one of those guys is he referring to?

^^The team's fucked from top to bottom, that's really all there is to it. The coach has no accountability because the GM has no credibility and put together a team that probably couldn't hack it in the USL.

Agreed!! I couldn't believe what he was saying -- he cleaned house because he wanted a different mentality and now he's blaming history - next it'll be the water!! He's the coach, not the past! :facepalm:

Am i missing something is TFC even able to play right now? Are they inline with MLS Roster rules? Don't we have to carry 7 Canadians and 13 internationals? Right now we only have 5 don't we? and there are 23 players on the roster now, (max being 26 now iirc)

So aren't we violating some rules thanks to the removal of Gerba, Serioux and Brennan?

Nane not Nana had that bad backpass.

I feel bad for Nane. Bad passes happen, and so do weak giveaways.
He had less giveaways than Barrette (who gave away his first position)
but obviously Nane's was in a much worse spot. Anywya, I can live
with those mistakes happening, but not with Garcia's continual shit.
