Not gonna say anything other than I am going to go make love to my wife and call this the greatest night I've had in months.

I am happy for the team.

Happy for the roadwarriors who made the trip down.

Happy for my johnson.

I hope this sets the tone for a positive week on these boards. Our hopes for a playoff spot are still extremely thin...but at least we are showing some life.

Good night fellas.

Guys, earlier I made a post that insinuated that the Red Bulls were not complete fucking shite. In fact, I said that they were in fact better than us. This was a falsehood. Top scientists, including myself, have examined the most recent data, and it turns out that not only are the Red Bulls shite, but a level of shite unmeasured thus far in the history of modern soccer.

Also, the Red Bulls are shite.

Great, Great Game. Simply Brilliant. I'm nominating Greg Sutton Man of the Match. Wynn's Run was incredible. Lovely finishing touch tonight by Barrett on both his goals. Ibby did it just like the coaches teach you "head it down Lad," all around a great game by the whole team.

Where was this team all season?

Great result.

As much as I would like to say this was a different team, it wasn't. Yes, the team played with a bit more balls and heart, that's what got us the win against a NY making big mistakes during critical moments. Don't get me wrong, I think we are playing better each game but there is still work to be done. We were lucky with this one in IMO - we had a very scrappy 2nd half. The mindless long balls from the defenders and back of the midfield are still there, very little play building. We are always gambling with long passes hoping that one of our players receives them. 90% of the time it's off target or the receiving player can't bring it under control. Very frustrating to see possession wasted like that constantly. A different team would have grilled us.

A win away from home is refreshing though. I'll take it.:D

One of the big differences is a healthy Dichio. His flicks, touches and general awareness just makes us sooo much more dangerous.

That and actually putting away our chances!

I just came here to post about this.

His influence cannot be underestimated.

It brings so much more balance to our team when he's on his game.

I know he's not the greatest player, or the most skilled. But he makes our team work.

Plain and simple.

I cant believe I'm saying this but Dichio is so underrated, yeah he's not the quickest but helped immensely throughout the game, I hope we bring him back for next year.
Brennan, Robbo, Guevara and especially Barrett were great tonight!
I really hate it when the nay sayers say that "this team isn't even close" I think tonight proved how far away we are.
And if you dont like John Carver you havent been watching!

What a game. That Wynne run (set up by a great flick) was brilliant. The cross to Ibby by Smith was a beauty and Barrett's finishes were cool, calm, and collected. Maybe he realized he doesn't have to slam the ball at every opportunity.

Also, almost every other result has gone TFC's way.

Don't get too far ahead of yourself.

The Red Bulls are on a slide as well.

We weren't perfect.

Dichio made a big difference up front by bringing some balance and his experience and his skills certainly mesh well with what we want to do, when he's on his game.

But I don't think we're close. If we were close, we wouldn't be second last in the league.

Even the bad teams have good games. We still have a lot of work to do.

Still guilty of giving the ball away too cheaply and Harmse was completely torched on the goal by Richards.

You cant expect instant results, I believe what we saw was John Carver and the team in general meshing and becoming a team. I dont think I'm getting ahead of myself for thinking this is the results of JC's and the team's hard work.
The revolving door of players, injuries, coach's first season, you cant expect to be great overnight but I think we all just saw real improvement.

Everything about that second goal was great. The Robinson tackle... the Dichio flick (which was incredible)... Wynne torching the guy trying to mark him, while running with the ball and then making a great pass... and the fact that Barret was not Jeff Cunningham.

The cross on the third goal was great, too. Johann needs more time on the pitch! And we need to sing my Ibrahim song! ;)

10-04-2008, 10:41 PM
I reckon the reason that Tyrone Marshall and Kevin Harmse managed the threat of JP Angel was in large part down to the massive shift Robbo put in in defensive midfield. The guy is huge for us almost evey week.
Great team performance- for the full 90 (99 in fact)...a few weeks late against a shite team, so let's not go wild, but what a morale booster as we head into the last 3 matches....

Well. Unfortunately, I need to see us put together more than one win to believe this.

I'm happy, for sure. I was jumping around my house like an idiot.

But I'm not going to suddenly think that the team that rolled over and took it up the rear a couple of weeks ago is now suddenly a solid squad ready to make a run.

If we can keep it up, I'll be more inclined to believe it.

One thing for sure, we've been inconsistent this year.

Solid performance tonight. Sutton was sharp and gave us a chance to win.

Barrett is the real deal. I don't see him getting offsides (not like Cunningham). That tells me that he reads the game well. He is fitting right in and will only get better when he gets to know his team mates.

Dichio was distributing the ball masterfully. He has a high Soccer IQ! He's a future coach for TFC.

Robinson and Harmse played on the edge....great performances tonight.

We played well on the fast pitch today. It worked to our advantage.

Wynn was just Wynn again.

Barrett showed the club how to play offensively. It's almost like after the first effortless goal he went back to the others and wrote down exactly what he did to get the ball in the net.

Like the whole squad were smacking their foreheads afterwards saying "Ohhhhh, I get it. We need to get the ball past the keeper".

Anyway, the whole team looked pretty solid tonight. And truth be told, I just knew somewhere in the back of my mind that Ibrihim was gonna put on a show for us as well.

Good night of soccer.

S_D
10-05-2008, 12:42 AM
Pretty happy with the result. Not only did we score 3 goals, they were all from the run of play.

It is amazing what Barrett can do when he doesn't send it over the bar. I hope he keeps it up. Harmse was a bit shakey on the backline but considering he hasn't played there since he was on the Galaxy it may take him a bit more time. Speedy guys caused him some problems.


The anouncers speculated that Carver is gone back to England next year, do these guys know what their talking about ??

Well they also said the TFC backline has been solid all season so take their thoughts with a grain of salt lol

I am wondering if we have seen the last of Velez on the pitch. I think Carver has decided to let Harmse audition for the spot for next season. Not unhappy about it as Velez has certainly screwed up this season on more than a few occasions.

I really liked Jo Smiths cross to Ibbe. If he could do more of that stuff, he will become a top flight starter. Less fancy for now, more crosses and he will make me a believer.

With FC Dallas coming up, a win there and our match at home vs Chicago could be hugely meaningful!

Can ya say dejavu?

In 2007, we lost to Chicago in jChicago in July and that started a tailspin
In 2008, we lost to Chicago in Chicago in July, 5 days earlier than we did in 2007 and it was part of the start of the tailspin

In 2007, we beat New York on the first weekend of October to end the 3 month exactly long winless streak
Now in 2008, we beat New York on the first weekend of October, 1 day later than 2007, to end a long winless steak

Just speculating here but Chi-town plays KC Sunday, their next game is a home game against the Crew, then they play us and end the season at home vs NY.
If the Fire win their next 2 and NY, NE, and DC continue to slide they are all but assured a place in the playoffs not to mention 2nd place in the East. They could rest their starters for our match if everything falls into place. Now, this doesn't mean it will be an easy match but I'm just saying it will make the match a better situation for us as far as winning.
I just hope this NY match put that fire back in them that they need and showed them that winning is all in how you approach the game and execute it.

So, I guess this means that Carver remembered how to coach, after all!

If he gets that level of commitment and intensity out of the guys every match, Carver will be a legend here, once we add a DP and such.

I had a senior's moment and forgot about the game. Damn. But now I read that 9 players are going international for the next game and we will have so few bodies Mo and Carver get a start with Dicho in goal. (kidding just....:)

What moron made up this schedule? I bet he's smoking the grass we want.....!

In 2007 we beat Chicago 3-1 at home, tied Chicago 1-1 away, and lost to them 3-0 at home in July.

the way carver used his subs today was brilliant.....at 2-1 he knew the Shite bulls would be pushing hard for the equalizer...so he brings on smith..and ibby to counter..at first i was shocked with the game being 2-1..and us needing it bad that he would bring on the youngsters..to hold out the win....but what the hell do i know!!!....
Well done JC!!

Although pleased by the result, I'm actually upset
These players did well tonight, where were they 2/3 of the season????
These lazy guys stepped it up on the pitch when their jobs were on the line.
We've been wondering if it's the coaching, the turf, or the players who let us down.
I now know. It's the players.

I've been saying so for weeks, and simply got accused of "not knowing anything about football". You can have the best coach in the world, but if the players choose not to execute, you will fail.

Today they decided to play with some effort and intensity, and looky here - they dominated most of the match, and scored a bag of goals.

Carver clearly said or did something this week to light a fire under their asses, and it showed. Best game I've seen us play all season long.

The passes were better for the most part. Guys were getting into position, and not just ball watching. On the first goal, Barrett was clearly thinking ahead, which lead to the nice flick over Conway. The cross from Jo Smith, and header to finish from Ibbe was worthy of any EPL highlight reel. The second goal was the result of a thoughtful pass from Dichio, and a blazing run by Wynne. This is the stuff we need to be doing every game.

Carver was able to sub the right guys in to finish a game for once - not frantically replace players to try and sour the offense, as he's had to do for the last few months.

In Carver I Trust. This game should indicate to people that we have a brighter future than some may think - playoffs this year, or not.

And a big middle finger to the "fans" here, who wagered that their team would lose before they even hit the pitch. Never give up on your team.

That was a f*cking awesome time... I honestly prefer road trips to home games. It's just the absolute hardest of hardcore TFC supporters, you spend all your time singing for the team instead of singing and getting pissed off because other people aren't. And when there's only a handful of you, it just feels more like a family, you know? And everyone save for 3 or 4 people sang along to every single song, jumping, waving scarves, it was just awesome.

And I know a lot of people like it for the part where you go out and get pissed after the match, but to be honest I'm not really a party person... I just wanna go f*cking mental at the match and then go home to bed. :D Barbarez was out until... well, I don't know, but I think something like 6 am.

BTW, Marioonsafario is cool.

The anouncers speculated that Carver is gone back to England next year, do these guys know what their talking about ??

They are probably just commenting on the confirmed speculation that Carver has had offers back in England, combined with the rumours that when Newcastle is (finally) sold, that either Kevin Keegan or Alan Shearer will be the next manager, and Carver won't be able to turn down an offer from his best buddies.

With that said, great game, even though the pointy ball lines on the field gave me a turn. Almost impossible to see the yellow lines on the TV.

great all around effort by TFC in Jersey....they played for the entire 90 mins and got a fair result, they deserved it...playoffs or not this result show what the potential of this team copuld be next season with a few new players.

The attendance for the game 'officially' was 13,756...they must have counted the cockroaches as well.
I hope their new RedBull Arena (still in New Jersey but will seat 25,189) will bring in soccer fans who stayed away from the canyon in the Meadowlands.

And to think -- we got Barret for absolutely, nothing.

HE WAS 100% FREE.
