Gee when you directly ask a player that has been out on injury for a long while what he thinks in a leading question.... what do you think he is going to say? Non story and biased reporting... the press really wants to critizes everything they can. Want to know who puts pressure on TFC... the media.

Its a two newspaper town with four.

Guys invent so much stuff just to get traction to write shit.

I like John Molinaro who consistantly stays on TFC and actually writes thoughtful educated pieces about the team and its players.

Just finished watching Seattle v Philly---Frei (2nd Star)---Edu scored for Philly---Barrett for Seattle.
Any one want to go through the league and pick a team of T.F.C. cast-offs.

Don't forget about Urruti with 2 goals for Portland in CCL play, but this is probably a discussion for a dedicated thread.

It was a great, thoroughly entertaining match I will say that...

But yes, during it I kept noting the former TFC'ers playing well. Barrett looked pissed when he came off, but he got the game-tying-goal, worked his tail off - and made-way for a top quality striker, nothing to hang his head about...

Carts...

What happens to all the new assistants if Vanny does end up getting bumped back down, and Bob Bradley or some other coach gets brought in?

Doesn't exactly seem like a stable job.

Vanney gets his Fran O'Leary, another NCAA Div III coach.

Let's hope he can hire a coach with professional experience for next season, if he sticks around that long.

All the more reason for the new assistants to do everything within their power to make sure we make the play-offs. I don't think we'll touch the coaching staff if they can turn this ship around.

Don't get me wrong, I want to make the playoffs. But do we really want Vanney as our coach going into next year? Do we want another coach to learn on job. I don't want a Roberto Di Matteo situation to happen here, well winning all of it would be nice.

I just think its about damn time we threw some money at building the best staff possible.

He holds a USSF A coaching license] says the article. What did O'Leary have again?

That and my understanding is Theslof is the right hand man.



Eating our own comes to mind.
