Shaff only got a few minutes but I noticed he was closing down his man a lot more quickly, which was a good sign. He was really pressing quickly.Quote:

That was fantastic, can’t believe how big a difference Priso makes when he is in form.
Was not expecting such a result or effort but glad to see the boys turn it around. Keep up the momentum
Vancouver wins so it will be TFC @ Vancouver for the final.
Will Insigne be eligible for the final?
i think so, there's no locked roster from the beginning of the comp, is there?Quote:

Nice work from Priso and great to see Oso return.
Brazen Head was completely Jammed and did not know about any supporters groups so we left (Collision and Dave Matthews were also happening). Ended up on the Patio at the Commons and to be honest, food was good and draft was cold.Quote:

Cool. In the end the people joining us got delayed and with traffic we just made it to the stadium before kick off and had to partake in the stadium food instead. Oh well, at least it was great weather and a great game.Quote:

They said on the OneSoccer post game show that Insigne will be playing in a final right after joining the team so I am going to assume they would know? Or maybe they are making assumptions too. Not sure. Just too bad not going to be at BMO Field.Quote:

Correct.Quote:

The big thing is we need to see this level of effort consistently - beating a playoff team in this fashion gives a lot of hope, but we need to see the drive and we need to see it, at the very least, 3 games out of 4.
Just move them to Lamport. Even their true blue fans are saying they'd rather go there and fill it than have a 1/4 or less full BMO.Quote:

I enjoyed this 4-3-3... 4-3-1-2?
I would like to watch that entire game again.
If I am not mistaken, it may have been mentioned on the message board a long while ago that telecasts of these sorts of games may be archived?
Eventually available for free viewing by the public somehow? Perhaps through a portal of one of the Canadian soccer associations?
If anyone has any insight, much appreciated.
Five points out of a playoff spot half way through the season, with a game in hand and an Italian NT starter on the way is a burned season. Got it.Quote:

Someone had to go, and Delgado probably was going to get the best return.Quote:
